Prince Philip Plays TV Critic; Ben Lyon Chides Bebe Daniels NEW YORK . . . I’m just back from Europe, where I looked into foreign TV. I understand that Queen Eliza¬ beth’s Philip does a good deal of look¬ ing, too. His equerry (the officer who looks after his impressive stables), Michael Parker, has a sister, Mary, who’s on TV. Recently Parker phoned her agent and said, “Mary’s hair looked terrible on that last show, be¬ cause of the lighting or something. Better correct it.” The agent asked, “Is that your opinion?” “Yes,” said Parker, “and the boss thinks so, too!” ■i Two former American movie stars —Bebe Daniels, who was one of Ralph EVES WEARY? TWO DROPS—QUICK RELIEF Do you sometimes work your eyes too long at a time—till they feel utterly weary? Then, a pause for a quick two-drop bath of Murine for each eye refreshes them in seconds. C^mpjounded of seven tested ingre¬ dients, Murine is gentle as a tear. It makes your eyes feel good! MURINE -for your eyes Edwards’ This Is Your Life subjects, and her husband, Ben Lyon, who gave Marilyn Monroe her name—appear with their children on a program tagged Life with the Lyons and are probably the most quoted couple in England. On a recent show, Ben said to Bebe, "Let’s face it, dear; we’re not kids any more, are you?” ■ Sometimes- the English gags get Godfreyish. Jimmy Edwards, a popu¬ lar comic, said, “I find women a diffi¬ cult problem.” “So do I,” replied Dick Bentley, “but they’re the sort of problem I like to wrestle with!” ■ Paris’ oldest daily interview pro¬ gram opens with everybody standing in front of a bar—drinking, if they wish. Imagine that in Kansas! ■ Italy’s big star these days, the New York-bom son of an Italian lawyer, used to appear on New York radio station WHOM back in 1945. He’s a Godfrey-Garroway-Steve Al¬ len type of kidder and uses the TV name "Mike Bongiomo.” Translation from Italian: “Mike Good Morning.” M Danny Kaye, a favorite with the British, has had floods of TV offers back home, but feels he should hold out for another year or two . . . Tour¬ ist Red Buttons was told by a friend, “See? The rainy weather in England isn’t so bad. You’re freckled and sun¬ burned.” “That’s not sunburn,” said Red. “It’s rust!” . . . Back home, Joey Adams claims that his favorite song is “Hymie’s Hideaway.” “You mean ‘Her¬ nando’s Hideaway? ’ ” he was asked. J oey retorted, “No, Hymie bought him out.” NEXT WEEK: SHEILAH GRAHAM 22
