Jackie Cooper, Eva Marie Saint, others. H<mr, which alternates Tuesday nights vdth Steel, is one of the brighter se¬ ries. Its adventuresome spirit has re¬ sulted in well-done, off-beat plays like “The Bridge,” starring Kim Stanley. Kraft Theater, though sporadic in quality, does present outstanding dramas, such as the recent “Patterns,” a Rod Serhng original which rated a repeat performance only a few weeks later. Ford Theater is produced by the same ad agency as Kraft, and its quality is basically the same. Video Theater, after a spotty start, is pre¬ senting some fair adaptations of old- time movie hits with Hollywood stars. Climax! also boasts top Hollywood names in usually engrossing plays. Some of the best TV drama comes from the once-a-month or less-often color “spectaculars.” Maurice Evans’ production of “Macbeth,” in which he co-starred with Judith Anderson on Hall of Fame, was excellent. Best of Broadway has ruined some good stage musicals, but has lived up to its title in straight plays like “Arsenic zmd Old Lace.” And Producers’ Showcase, oc¬ casionally poor, scored solidly with such plays as “State of the Union” and “Yellow Jack.”— R.S. FINE TUNING By Ollie Crawford Moscow brags of own color TV system. This is the color tele¬ vision that sends only Reds. • The system is compatible. It’s just that the Communists aren’t. • The Reds claim they invented color TV in 1925. That was just before they invented television. It wasn’t hard—they just filled the picture tube with borscht and turned on the power. This not only provided color TV, it kept the borscht hot. • This was the first color TV in the world starring a boiled po¬ tato. • Their poll showed that the color TV was popular in Rus¬ sia, and they gave viewers a choice between voting for it or for Siberia. The color shows came out all full of small dots, so now the Kremlin is referring to them as “speck-taculars.” • The Reds couldn’t get rid of the spots, so they say this is what U. S. telecasters mean by spot commercials. • The Reds built the iron cur¬ tain, and how they’re going in for shades. • Their first big color TV show was a great success. It showed polar bears eating licorice in a I Siberian snowfield. 21
