CALORIE CONSCIOUS viewers
should watch CBS on’ Thursday,
Jan. 18, at 10 p.m. The program
is entitled, “The Fat American,”
an examination of why Americans
eat too much.
Dr. Paul Dudley White, the fam-
ous heart specialist, will be a guest,
and Harry Reasoner is the commen-
tator.
DAVE GARROWAY was back for
a one-time visit on the “Today” show
to celebrate the show’s 10th an-
niversary.
In the six months since he left
the show, Dave has sold his house—-
the narrow, six-story brownstone
where his wife, Pamela, so tragic-
ally met her death from an overdose
of sleeping pills last April. He's
looking for a Riverside Drive pent-
house where he can get air, and
sun. For weekends he’s thinking of
buying a mountain 2,200 feet high
in Harriman, N. Y., for the purp-
ose of building an observatory. Dave
is an amateur astronomer.
Garroway is also fighting a legal
suit. The owners of J. Fred Muggs,
the chimp he had on the show,
are suing him for half a million
dollars.
How has Dave recovered from
the shock of his wife's death?
“About half-way,” is the way
he desccribes it. “You get over
something like that when you do.
You can’t hurry it.
“I haven't gone out with anyone
simply because I don’t feel like
it.
“I took Betty Furness to dinner
one night to discuss business and
the next day all the columnists had
us engaged,” he said.
ARTHUR GODFREY is joining the
nightclub parade, as headline of
the Stardust Hotel bill in Lag Veg-
as, Feb. 19 to March 4. One thing
is certain, he isn’t doing it because
he needs money.
THE DANNY THOMAS SHOW
has been renewed by its sponsor
for next season—which quickly ends
all the speculation that Danny
would get out of regular television
after this year.
SID MELTON and Pat Carroll, who
play the night-club owner and his
wife on the Danny Thomas show,
are developing into quite a team.
Danny, whose production comp-
any has launched Dick Van Dyke
and Joey Bishop, is said to be inter-
ested in Jan Murray for a show
of his own next season.
CAROL BURNETT describes the
Carnegie Hall concert she’s doing
with Julia Andrews on March 5 as
the “poor man’s Mary Martin-Ethel
Merman Show”. CBS is taping it
for an hour-long TV special for a
later telecast.
The whole idea was born when
Julie appeared as a guest on the
Garry Moore show sometime ago.
Bob Banner. who produces the
“Garry Moore Show” and ‘Candid
Camera,” was quick to realize
what a perfect combination they'd
make.
Julie and Carol will carry most
of the hour, with a male chorus
of singers and dancers for support.
Carol is giving up her CBS radio
show at the end of this month.
“Pm a visual comic,” she ex-
plained, “ and I just don’t like radio.
It's not my medium. And I'm
frustrated working in it. If I spend
10 minutes doing something I'm
unhappy about, it seems longer
than 70 hours doing the work I
like.”
Carol has been offered several
series of her own.
But she’s turned them all down.

Never let a personal journal lie
around, You never know who may
read it a hundred years hence, or
even later.
Recently the Editor handed me
a small book which turned out to
be a description of a journey from
Liverpool, or nearby, to London,
and other points in England in May
1836. The writer, Mary or May
Vorty, was evidently an unmarried
girl reared under the general man-
ner described by Jane Austen. She
refers to herself as an old woman
of eighty-one (backwards) which
may mean eighteen. The only
name mentioned which is familiar
now locally is Boyd. She refers to
Uncle Boyd and numerous cousins
and other relatives, almost all of
them named Boyd.
The family members started out
in an omnibus (which we thought
was a modern word), then rode in
a phaeton, a coach, «a gig, a cockle
shell boat, on a donkey, and walked
and walked and walked. Occa-
sionally the walking is varied a
little by such words as rambled,
but the meaning is clear. Appar-
ently the people visited had plenty
of this world’s goods, at least their
houses and pursuits sound like it.
The country houses were all large
with ancestral picture galleries,
large gardens, parks, shooting pre-
serves, musical entertainment, etc.
They were on intimate terms with
the clergy, some of whom were
relatives.
At Somerset house they saw
paintings of The Battle of Trafalgar,
The Battle of Corunna, The Wreck-
ers, The [Field of Waterloo, and
several others with the comment
“What a warlike taste is it not?’.
They took a lot of interest in an
arcade or museum in which was
exhibited a microscope, then new,
which would make a common flea
look as big as an elephant, and
show a drop of water filled with
moving living things. There was a
lecture and experiments on oxygen
and hydrogen, and a player piano-
forte.
A ride in a cockle shell boat on
the Dover Strait proved disap-
pointing. The water was calm and
very dirty. The scenery was mostly
black boats and dirty warehouses.
They visited an orphan asylum and
an. infant school. A Sunday school
maintained by the generosity of
some elderly ladies was particularly
interesting. Every Whitmonday
they gave the children a dinner of
hot pudding, beef, with mustard
and pepper and horseradish, which
was new to them.
They were permitted to visit the
outer part only of a mine working.

On one of the estates they were
keenly interested in some bees
kept in hives. In a group of young
folks they played games including,
“Catching wild horses around ‘the
Mulberry Tree, Drop the glove, and
Thread the = needle”. Evening
diversions were playing billiards,
warming by a bright fire, singing,
and playing cards. For the latter,
the pastor turned up one evening
with his long legs encased in zebra
silk stockings. He played cards
with them and appeared to enjoy it.
But the greater part of their in-
terest was in the churches. They
visited one over a thousand years
old and climbed a dark and dusty
tower, The view was flat and un-
interesting and they had to put
in a lot of time brushing off the
cobwebbs and finally had to go
home. It rained the last five miles
they had to walk and they were
“sopped”. They attended numerous
services where there was good
music by orchestra and organ. On
one Sunday she reports two in-
different sermons.
But she was thrilled by a service
in Saint Pauls. Seven thousand
children sang, then with choir and
organ, they all sang the 100th
psalm, Coronation Anthem, Hale-
lujah Chorus, God Save the King,
Psalms 113 and 104. They were
so far away that they could not
hear a single word of the bishop's
sermon, She carefully enumerates
members of the royal family in at-
tendance. Being specific in deny-
ing that she had started it, she
recites various pranks she terms
Mischievous, which were played
from time to time. By present day
standards, they would be too sim-
ple even to mention.
Why was this old journal kept
125 years? Probably for some-
thing else originally in the same
book. The journal, written in
ink, which is somewhat faded and
hard to read took only a small
part of the book, The owner then
turned it over and started paging
from the other cover. Seventy-two
pages are missing. Maybe the
writer wrote more exciting inci-
dents later in life, too hot to keep.
Then on page 73 starts a recipe
for Black Currant Cordial” written
in ink in an older or a different
hand. There are over forty pages
of recipes one of which is entitled
“Recipe for Sweet Dreams” signed
Mary Vorty 1873 who may be the
original author. Various other
names appear below recipes, ap-
parently the source, The later ones,
one dated 1915, are written in pen-
cil in another, or even several
different kinds of handwriting.

WHEN ZOLLICOFFER fell
dead from his horse, his breast
torn open by at least 10 bullets,
his two regiments took off in
confusion. Further Union
charges routed the rest of the
force.
Southern units engaged in-
cluded two Cavalry companies,
a Mississippi regiment, three
Tennessee regiments and an
‘Alabama regiment, intended as
reserves.
The alert Union pickets who
broke up the advance were
John J. Crittenden of Critten-
den Compromise fame, who re-
mained loyal to the Union at
the outbreak of war.
Gen. Crittenden’s brother
Thomas also stayed with the
North and is now in the Union
army. Like Thomas, Gen. Crit-
tenden is a West Pointer, grad-
uating in 1832 and later winning
honors in the Mexican war.
