12 Onconta Star Feb. 8, 1958 yicwingListcning Br non DC PIANTE Stir Stiff Writer ARTF.R ONE OF THE MOST miserable flops of the current TV season, NBC Is finally giving up on the current "Sally" series. It is Boing to continue the show, but will completely change the format, and has even gone as far as to announce that a new "premiere" of the "Sally" series would be held at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, February 6 Sally, which stars Joan Caulfield and Marion Lome as a pair of globe trotting gals looking for a normal vacation, and finding Instead all kinds of excitement, proved to be a little too far fetched for the average viewer. So instead of capturing audiences, audiences stayed away from this half hour of the NBC networks schedule.

Under the new formal. Sally and Mrs. Banfnrd (played by Marion Lome) return to the United States where' they will locate in a large city, where Mrs. Banford operates a department store. There are no more million mile trips planned for the half hour shows, and from all that NBC has announced, the adventures will be a little more realistic.

In addition to coming up with new ideas In shows, NBC also decided a few new, permanent faces in the cast might break up the monotony which resulted from too much of Caulfield and Lome. So now we will have Johnny Desmond, the Singing star, Gale Gordon, whom we all remember as the stuffy hiRh school principal in the "Our Miss Brooks" scries, and Arte Johnson, who made the grade in the Broadway show, "No Time for Exactly where this new "Sally" scries will go cannot jet be determined. If NBC is planning the new format just to satisfy a disgruntled sponsor, then the show will end up by the wayside. If, the network is trying to make an honest has the potential of being a top half hour of entertainment. VICTOR I1ORGE, who will present i third half of "Comedy and Music" on Wednesday, February 19, will not work the show alone as he did in December, 1956, when he presented the first hour of "Comedy and Music." He will, rather, have a variety show featuring Victor Borgc.

Included among the acts which he will feature will be the dance team of Rod Alexander and Bambi Linn. The orchestra will be under the direction of Luther Henderson and also featured will be Marguerite Piazza. The announcement that Borgc would feature guests was rather disappointing to the many people who taw his first show. At that time Borge entertained for a full hour, with nothing more for accompaniment than an orchestra in the background. And many people left their TV sets feeling the orchestra was a waste of time.

Now comes a second show featuring Borge, ro Instead of dropping the extras, which had included only an orchestra before, they add a lot of acts, making the Victor Borge show a variety performance. To us who like "Comedy and Music" because of the great talent and ability at the piano of Borgc, this is very disappointing. Disk Picks By Ed Hlder.

The Right Know Nation's Newspapers Urge Congress to End Secrecy WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 Wl--Appeals to Congress to shatter the shield of secrecy and reinforce the people's right to Information about their government rang out yesterday from spokesmen for the nation's newspapers. Louisville Editor Jamei S. Pope and Washington correspondent, Dark R.

Mollcnhoff laid Congress has let government official! distort a 169-year-old law, which provides for the preservation and filing of into an Instrument for withholding these nc- ords from the public. They urged the House Government information subcommittee headed by Rep. Moss (D-Calift, to tack on a single sentence declaring that this law "does not authorize withholding information from'the public." As author of a bill to accom plish this. Moss meed complete agreement. He disputed a contention by Rep.

Hoffman of Michigan, only Republican on the three- member subcommittee, that the amendment would be construed as a mandate that records must be made public. The old law authorizes department heads to "prescribe regula tions for the custody, use and preservation of the records, papers and property appertaining to" the departments. All 10 government departments oppose the proposed amendment to this law. Again with Mosj lending support, the two newsmen agreed that some information should be kept secret but under specific laws covering specific fields, such as those now applying to military or trade secrets or income tax returns.
