LOS ANGELES TIMES B8 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2000 Obituaries Larry Rhine; Award-Winning Writer for Radio, Film and TV Laurance Fowler; Longtime San Fernando Valley Journalist 1997, Rhine wrote a letter to the editor published in The Times, offering his sympathy to Skelton's beloved characters, Freddie the Freeloader, Clem Kadiddlehopper and Sheriff Deadeye. Rhine recalled that Skelton always told his writers: "I won't mind dying if I can tell St. Peter a joke he hasn't heard." Rhine was interviewed last year for the Television Academy of Art and Sciences Archive of American Television. Through the 1960s, Rhine served on the board of trustees of the Producer-Writers Guild of America Pension Plan in Los Angeles, heading the board in 1968. The organization awarded him its Founders Award in 1974 and its Founders Plaque in 1980.

He is survived by his wife of 50 years. Hazel Shermet Rhine; their son, Robert; and their daughter, Vicki Rhine Trevena. "The line moved slowly, because he always had suggestions. But they were invariably good, and somehow he made deadline." Hired as city editor in 1954, Fowler presided over the expansion of the paper's coverage beyond the Valley to City Hall and other areas, said Rick Quist, executive news editor at the Daily News. Frances Esther Fowler, 89, said retirement "just about killed" her husband.

"He wasn't the same after that. He lost his love for life." A USC graduate, he served as a lieutenant in the Army Air Corps during World War II, flying 34 missions over Germany, she said. Fowler, who asked that no funeral be held, died Monday at a care facility in Canoga Park. In addition to his wife, he is survived by a daughter and two grandsons. Donations in his memory may be made to the Alzheimer's Assn.

By ROBERTO J. MANZANO TIMES STAFF WRITER Laurance "Larry" Fowler, a demanding but passionate newsman at the old Valley News and Green-sheet, has died at 88. Fowler worked at the paper, which became the Daily News of Los Angeles, from 1954 to 1977, retiring as managing editor. "He stressed accuracy and service to the public all the good things a newspaperman ought to be," said Daily News systems editor Richard Handt. Mike Wyma, assistant Metro copy chief at The Times, who worked with Fowler at the Daily News, remembered him as the unquestioned ruler of the newsroom.

"Anything remotely important had to go by him, and a line of editors and writers would form at his desk every night," Wyma said. kyo Rose." He worked extensively to publicize Gen. Douglas MacAr-thur's historic "I shall return" speech, distributing the vow on matchbook covers and other printed materials as well as over the airwaves. But when lie suggested that the slogan be changed to "We shall return," MacArthur was so outraged that he banned Rhine from the legendary return of the American forces to Corregidor. MacArthur's disapproving slap in the face probably saved Rhine, because the shore boat to which he had been assigned was bombed and the survivors were imprisoned by the Japanese.

After the war, Rhine segued easily from radio and film to television. Over the years, he wrote for such series as "Mr. Ed," "Sanford and Son," "Red Skelton," "The Bob Hope Show," "Bachelor Father" and "Gimme a Break." He created and was executive producer of the 1979-80 series "Joe's World," a family sitcom featuring a Detroit house painter, and produced the 1981 television special "Nuts and Bolts." In a 1996 article for the Writers Guild of America Journal, Rhine summed up his career as "a giddy gallop on a fast track." "A comedy writer's life," he said, "is a blur of vignettes recalled during retirement. Like that oft-quoted 'Mr. Ed' rewrite session when series co-owner George Burns immortalized 'The horse wouldn't say and my partner, Lou Derman, piped up with, 'Let the horse After Red Skelton's death in By MYRNA OLIVER TIMES STAF WRITER Larry Rhine, who wrote his way across radio, television and motion picture entertainment for more than half a century, from the aural "Duffy's Tavern" to the visual "Here's Lucy," "All in the Family" and "The Brady Bunch," has died.

He was 90. Rhine, who received the Pioneer Broadcasters' Diamond Circle Plaque only two weeks before his death, died Friday in Los Angeles, said his son, screenwriter Robert Steven Rhine. The television series "All in the Family," starring Carroll O'Connor as the irascible Archie Bunker, earned Rhine myriad awards for his scripts. He was twice nominated for Emmys and won a Writers Guild Award, a Humanitas Award, a Golden Globe and a Heartfund Award. Rhine called Norman Lear, who created and produced the show, "the greatest boon to writers since the inflated seat cushion." He described his own favorite "Learism" as the maestro's "compliment" to writers: "This is the greatest script I've ever seen.

It will rewrite well." Born in San Francisco, Rhine was educated at UC Berkeley, where he headed an internationally competitive debating team. In 1934, he began his entertainment career at radio station KGB in San Diego as a writer, announcer and director alongside Art Linkletter. Rhine wrote segments for several popular radio shows, including "The Life of Riley," "G.E. Theater" and "The Colgate Comedy Hour." J.M I A IIJ. 1 3 -Y Larry Rhine in an undated photo When he wrote for the 1941-51 radio comedy series "Duffy's Tavern," Rhine took a particular interest in actress Hazel Shermet, one in a string who portrayed Miss Duffy, the giddy, man-crazy daughter of the tavern owner.

As Rhine described it later, "Our romance deteriorated into marriage. My first residual." Rhine worked as a Hollywood screenwriter for Universal Pictures and Twentieth Century Fox during the late 1930s. Among other scripts, he wrote the 1941 shipboard comedy "Six Lessons From Madame La Zonga" with a title based on a popular song of the day. During World War II, Rhine worked for the Office of War Information out of San Francisco, broadcasting American propaganda into Japan, including an American version of Japan's "To Going. Going.
