We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

SHOWS THIS WEEK Who’s doing what on your TV screen during the next seven days? Here, in on-the-spot photographs, is part of the answer. This week TV GUIDE previews a new role for an old come¬ dian (well, he’s 39, anyway); one of the few new situation comedies; a “spectacular” version of a children’s classic, and other newsworthy events. Jack Benny Goes Dramatic. In addition to his alternate-week half-hour show, the CBS comedian will appear five times this season on Shower of Stars. In “Time Out for Ginger,” Thursday, he’s father of a football-playing girl. Show’s “salesmen,” Bill Lundigan and Mary Costa, whip up his rah-rah mood.
