i Young Pianist, Chess Player Are International Sensations Television THURSDAY fcr Ode tfetfet Frew SUft KCW YORK (UP)-If we about juvenile de- UaQuency lone enough, it might be-weH to ponder the fact that a couple of our juveniles are international sensations. One is Bobby Fischer of Brooklyn, woo at 14 set the chess world on its ear- by defeating grand masters to win the U.S. championship. He now is entitled to a crack at the world chess Utle, held by Smyslov of Russia. The other is Van Cliburn of Shreveport, and Kilgore, Tex.

who at 23 set Moscow on its ear this week by winning, the Tchaikovsky international piano competition. This extroverted Irish-Texan (both his mother and father are of Irish descent) gave first public concert in Shreveport at the age of three. When he was six, he and his mother, a concert pianist, were giving recitals together. On his first day in school in Shreveport. the teacher asked him if he could read.

"Yes," he said, "I can read music." When he came here in 19M to compete for the coveted Edgar N. Leventritt award, they laughed when he sat down to play (honest, that's what I'm told by those who were He looked like a misplaced basketball player. He's 6-feet-4 but has a mop of curly hair that springs up so that he looks about 6-feet-7. His hand spans mi inches. He walks with a gangling lope.

Hisj piano style is as Russian as his dialect is east Texan. When he finished playing, he had won the award. Mrs. Leventritt decided to give a reception for him after his first New York philharmonic appearance. She told him to bring along any friends from home who his had come to hear him.

Came the reception, and Mrs. Leventritt had to fight her way, into the room through a mob strangers. "Honey," said Van, sweeping an arm toward 75 Texans, "see these people? These here are a few of mah friends." Show Biz' Oldtimer Claims Lana Should Have Daughter HOLLYWOOD (UP)--One of that Cheryl should be taken oldest timers in show her mother once and for all.

"Perhaps she has lost it. But Cheryl has the right to her mother and that's what's important." Hollywood has been almost unanimously silent about the Turner-Stompanatp affair, the kill- Ing and the question of the child's custody. But. in private, not much sympathy has been lost on Lana. "Maybe I shouldn't say this," Wynn mused.

All three were written in the 1930's, he explained, and he was really another person then.

"I feel little like an impostor," he said. On the surface, his three offer- Ings were wildly disparate, but actually, the concern of all three was.the,same: Illusion confronted by reality. And in a way, all three dovetailed neatl yinto each other one centered aroun da 'child, one around an old man, the third around young adults. The most successful of the trio was "The Last of My Gold Watches," although it was almost -monologue rather than dramatic construction. It revolved around an elderly salesman who has never regarded time as an enemy (he is proud of the 15 gold watches he has won for his salesmanship), but who finds time has turned on him.

A Dead Way Of Life He is old. He is as beat as the familiar mustard-colored shabby hotel room into which he has checked. His friends, his best customers are dead. His way of life is dead, too, but he is unwilling to accept it. He protests, he clings to a world which doesn't exist and which, I suspect, never existed-a world in which dignity, tradition, craftsmanship were respected.

But he is confronted by fleshly reality in the form of a brash, young salesman and by symbolic reality in the form of the dying day. "It's getting late in the day," says an old hotel porter. "Boy, it ain't even late in the day," says the old salesman. "It's night." His world is gone. The realization is there and the play ends on that note.

Less successful were "Moony's Kid Don't Cry" and "This Property Is Condemned." The former was about a factory worker (Ben Gazzara) who clings to an illusion about escape my ax 11 could chop my way through the! woods, through the It saved only by the performance Lee Grant who played Gazzara's wife with exquisite skill. A clumsy piece, its writing was almost as embarrassing as the sophomoric drivel of Jack Kerouac -and his retarded motoi boys of the beat school. "This Property Is Condemned" was a kind of bobby sox "Baby Doll" which I find difficult to. assay because the young actress who played the lead role of "Willie" (Zina Bethune) was almost incomprehensible at times. She seemed to confuse the soft Mis sissippi accent with adenoid trouble.

Romantic Conceptions Hold Bt it seemed to me that Willie, who had lost her family on the treshold of adolescence, was the only one who continued to cleave to her illusions. She has seen death in real life, but it has not affected her romantic conceptions you see Greta Garbo in She lives out of garbage cans, but continues to floal in 3. dream. Reality is there in the form of a boy her own age but seemingly, he can not touch her. Willie has entered the play bj walking an imaginary tightrope along a railroad track.

She leaves the same way. I would say that none of the three plays was very good Tennessee WMams. They were no only back drawer, they werre bottom drawer--the construction ol all three was fairly limp, none had the fierce internal tensions that a one-acter needs to keep an audience hooked. But they did have something else, something that TV drama sadly lacks: A sense of lyric theatre and sense of reaching. TV rarely reaches.and even when its grasp falls short--as it did last nightr-I find it kind of exhilarat ing.

The Channel Swim: Andy Williams, who takes over Pat Boone's ABC-TV spot for the summer on July 3, is angling for comic Dick Van Dyke and the Hamilton trio as regulars. There's a report that CBS-TV's "Leave It to Beaver" may wind up on ABC- TV next fall. CBS-TV has pitched a Sunday afternoon slot at "Omnibus," but insiders say it'll stick with NBC-TV. An independent film producer, David Bobbins, has filed a million dollar damage suit against the packers of CBS-TV's "Dotto" --he says he created a show "Who's Dot" which is the format of "Dotto."

Crane, I met a. friend of yours in London before I sailed," he began, "and he advised me to ask your advice. "I am opening a showroom for European cars. I have located a very attractive spot on Michigan Avenue, near the bridge. "What do you think of my choice? Our mutual friend asked me to get your opinion before I signed any lease." Applied Psychology Claude was not familiar with Chicago so he felt he was getting a bargain in the showroom space he had in mind.

But -Applied Psychologists have developed a very vital check list of things to consider before you open any new business. For example, Claude didn't realize the fact that Chicagoans prefer the west side of Michigan Boulevard. Very few people traverse its east sidewalks, at least downtown. Yet it was on the east side of the street that Claude was planning to locate. Our "consumer surveys" are now the rule so don't locate your grocery store or restaurant in the first attractive looking building you see until you have first analy- zed the specific consumer traffic that you wish to win.

Find out which side of the street is most heavily trafficked. Count the number of c6mpeting stores or restaurants in the area. If you are in the food business, estimate.whether the traffic is primarily a "lunch hour" demand, or whether you will get a fair amount of breakfast and dinner trade. Many grocery stores fail because they are on the wrong side of a heavily used automobile thoro- fare so mothers hesitate to send their youngster across such a dangerous highway. Other stores with limited parking facilities likewise are hamstrung on that Indeed, new churches are now picking spots where there will be extra lots for parking space on Sunday.

Chain Store Technique When a chain store wishes to open a new outlet, it doesn't grab the first location that offers adequate floor space. No, it sends psychological "surveyors" into the area to analyze the competition the future possibilities of zooming residential areas. It tabulates the total sales potential of the area for its kind of merchandise. And it considers such things as parking (pace, dangerous traffic etc. It may teem odd, but chain stores often locate next door or just across the street from rival chain store outlets, for many housewives are good shoppers and like to view the contents of several stores.

That is also why we have "automobile row" in many cities, with the salesrooms -of many different automobiles being located side by side for maybe a full city block. Even after you finally 'locate your store, however, and have-it stocked with the latest brands of merchandise, you may still go bankrupt if your sales clerks aren't on their toes. For a stolid face instead of a cheery smile can bankrupt a retail store. People still react to a jay conversational tone and an infectious grin, so the human element in selling is even more important today.than 50 years So send, for my booklet "The few Psychology of Advertising enclosing a stamped return envelope plus 20c (non-profit). It can help the little fellow succeed in the face of gigantic competition, for a small merchant may still use better psychology than a huge chain store.

(Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, enclosing a long 3c stamped, addressed envelope and 20c -to cover typing and printing costs when you send for one of his booklets.)
