KATIE JOHNSON TcCHNICOLOK PIUS-SUSPENSE THRIUER 8 S5 MICMEl 8t0tE the mm MVRltMPrTI cs bp A wkL Jf 1 Fact Programs Are Improving On Television By Charles Mercer New York It seems to me that the realm of fact has been far out-stripping the realm of fiction in television programming recently. To be categorical about it, "fact" involves programs which report and interpret contemporary life. In literature "fiction" also reports and interprets contemporary life.

On television, however, "fiction" meaning drama both live and filmed has seemed generally tired in recent weeks; with a few notable exceptions it has offered low-level entertainment. To take an optimistic view of television viewing in this slack summer season, there are several regular "factual" programs worthy of attention. Television has been getting closer to the news lately and it's been making more news. Most obvious, of course, is the recent televised interview with Nikita S. Krushchev, secretary of the Soviet Communist party.

The questioning by reporters on news panel programs strikes me as being sharper and better integrated in recent months. It was obvious, for example, a week ago when "Meet the Press" interviewed the Rev. Billy Graham. It was obvious, too, when "Press Conference" interviewed Army Specialist 3.C. William S.

Girard's brother, Louis, and his American attorney, Earl J. Carroll. Seasoned newspaper reporters who appear on news panels improve not as reporters necessarily, but as TV personalities from recurrent exposure to the red eye of the camera. Sunday, indeed, is one of the best of viewing days this summer for viewers of a serious turn of mind. On NBC-TV there is an excellent review and analysis of trnr week's news, "Outlook." On CBS-TV there is Eric Sevareid's news round-up (at 4:30 p.m.) Library Lists New Novels New novels at the Santa Cruz public library, now available for checking out, were listed Saturday by Miss Betty Barnes, assistant librarian.

They include: "Anne Boleyn," by Eve Stephens. Another of the many novels of the court and times of Henry VIII. "Madame Solario," by an author who desires to remain anonymous. This distinguished novel of romance and intrigue describes the fashionable life on Lake Como in 1906. "Far, Far The Mountain Peak," by John Masters.

Preceding "Bho-wani Junction" in point of time, this is another in a series of novels on India dealing with the Savage family. "Homing," by Elswyth Thane. There are glimpses of early Williamsburg in this novel which is set largely in the early part of the second World War in England. "The Lady," by Conrad Rich-ter. Ellen is an unforgettable character in this story of the rivalry between sheepmen and cattlemen in early twentieth-century New Mexico.

"A Legacy," by Sybille Bedford. A novel of family life, giving a vivid picture of Germany and Europe before the first World War. "Trumpet of God," by David Duncan. A 15-year-old boy is the hero of this story of the Children's Crusade. "Wapshot Chronicle," by John Cheever.

A sophisticated family novel with a New England background. "Warden of the Smoke and Bells," by Richard Llewellyn. A novel of Assissi at the time when Marco Polo stops off, homeward bound with his vast retinue from Cathay. "Written On Water," by Vickie Baum. Mexico is the setting of this new novel which includes such exciting adventures as a trip to the Galapos islands, the crossing of a fresh lava bed, and an underwater fight with a shark.

Masonic Luncheon Club To Hear Of A A Program "The Program of Alcoholics Anonymous as a Constructive Way of Life" will be the subject of Dr. Frederick C. Robinson's address to the Masonic Luncheon club at the Palomar hotel Thursday noon. "Alcoholism is a disease for which there is no cure, but through the constructive work of the organization known as Alcoholics Anonymous there is possible a return to sobriety and normal living.

Early Reports Show Effects Of Shrinking Sales On Profits Sacramento In a race against time the state department of social welfare is building an entirely new statewide program for medical care for the recipients of assistance in the state aid programs; aid to needy blind, aid to partially self-supporting blind, aid to needy children, and old age security.

George K. Wyman, director of the department, said that the provisions of Gov. Goodwin J. Knight's bill, which was passed by the state senate and assent bly. is scheduled to go into op-eration in county welfare offices all over California on October I.

In a joint effort to provide a smooth, efficient system, county and slate welfare officials have Island In Sun7 Seen As Controversial By Leslie Dard "Island in the Sun," now playing at the Del Mar theater, was produced by Darryl F. Zanuck, a man who has tackled controversial themes before. This film, in lovely color and on the wide screen, will doubtless cause a good deal of comment, too, since its dishes out a drama of murder, love, sex -and racial mingling. For the record, it's based on Alec Waugh's best-seller about the West Indies and the conflicts that surge beneath the seemingly calm surface. The plot is an intricate mixture, but Director Robert Rossen has juggled the action neatly: Wealthy planter James Mason suspects his wife (Patricia Owens) of infidelity with Michael Rennie; Mason's sister-in-law, Joan Fontaine, becomes interested in David Boyeur (Harry Belafonte), leader of the island's restless natives; Joan Collins, as Mason's sister, believes she may have Negro blood, an issue which affects her relationship with the son of the island's governor.

And finally, there is the affair between the governor's aide (John Justin) and Dorothy Dandridge. Threaded through this is Mason's violence, which touches off smouldering relationships and resentments. Waugh's novel deals' with "love and lust, honor and degradation, crime and punishment." All these flower in this semi-tropical hothouse and the reason is probably the high caliber of the acting. -Mason, as a man who discovers that he probably has colored blood, is perfectly tempestuous. Belafonte, who sings the title song and one chant, is excellent as the volatile Boyeur.

Like the rest of the cast, they make the story come to life during its two-hour run. Southerners may have objections, but we feel the story has been handled with good taste.

WEDNESDAY Open 2:00 AT OUR REGULAR PRICES With the finishing strokes of his pen, Governor Goodwin J. Knight today signed a new division of the state department of social welfare into existence. The new medical care program is a much needed help for the needy of California and will be administered in a manner somewhat on the order of an insurance plan. Witnessing the signing, left to right: George K.

Also, various professional groups have been consulted to insure that the pattern of operation will fit into present medical care practices in California. Methods used in other states have been examined for use as guide material. The program will operate somewhat on the order of an insurance plan. The money will not be paid to each recipient. Instead it will be paid directly to vendors of medical care and supplies as needed and for items of care yet to be determined.

It is not known at this time just exactly how much and what type medical care can be provid-' ed in. individual cases or how many different medical services or supplies can be paid for by the appropriated money. The money to operate the medical care program will be obtained from the federal and state governments on a sharing basis of approximately 50 per cent from each. A total of $21,700,000 will be available for the balance of the 1957-58 fiscal year, of which will be from state funds. The depositing of funds in the pool will be at the rate of $6 a month for every adult and $3 a month for every child in the state aid programs.

The objectives of the medical care program, insofar as funds will allow, are for the care or mitigation of disease, for promotion of health, prevention of disease and disability, and rehabilitation. This program is not intended to replace any existing medical service for those in need. It will only supplement medical care where needed and the pool funds will be considered an additional resource for medical assistance.

These reports come from companies whose fiscal year ends before the calendar year. Reports from 44 of the off-beat fiscal year companies show 25 of them with lower net income after taxes than in the corresponding first six months of their previous year.

Six of the 44 report operating at a loss. Combined the 44 report net income of $117,352,009 this year against $142,535,919 for the same 44 in the previous year, or a drop of 17.6 per cent. But the totals are heavily weighed by a few industries that have been having rough going. The still booming industries haven't been heard from yet. When companies using the calendar year begin next month to report their first six months results the picture seems likely to change for the better.

In the first quarter of this year business profits averaged out 7.6 per cent higher than in the first three months of 1956. Two industries that tend to follow the farm year rather than the calendar year have been having profit problems. So all of the meat packers and half of the reporting farm implement firms pull the average for the 44 down. All seven of the meat packing companies reporting on their first half results show profits lower this year than last. One operated at a loss.

Combined the seven report earnings of $6,104,345 this year a drop of 79.5 per cent from the $29,853,081 the same seven made in the first half of last year. Three of the six farm machinery firms report lower earnings this year. Three operated at a loss but two of these were able to cut their losses below those of a year MGM's DRAMA OF IN RECKLESS STARRING ELEANOR PARKER GEORGE SAIVDERS BILL TRAVERS-PIERRE AUMONT IN CINEMASCOPE '(pi of By Sara Dawson New York W.
