The stars we see on the bigger shows are always stars of another medium Broadway or Holly wood. When a Vince Edwards, Connie Stevens or Richard Cham berlain comes along, they are more like comets than stars for their lights shine brightly and die, often too quickly.

The reason for TV's inability to create a great star is twofold The producers themselves won't have it. And we, the audience, wouldn't accept it if they did. In Hollywood golden era (which one was that?) fresh young talent with promise of greatness was signed to long contracts, groomed with the dedication of a thoroughbred" race horse and1 rocketed to popularity through massive advertising and publicity campaigns. After that, the audience took up the second step, that of accepting or denying. If the potential star was accepted, he or she was seen on the nation's screens only two or three times a year.

Like the festive turkey, they were not often present, but their memory lingered. Image Becomes Confused The potential, stars of television are seen again and again. They pop up in a nurse's uniform on one show and perhaps an hour later as a fallen female in a murder mystery. Their image becomes confused with the multiple roles they play, and the audience soon accepts the mass actors and actresses but never stars. Hilda Brawner is a name large ly unknown in television.

Yet this talented young lady has been starred in such shows as the "Du Pont Show of the Week," "The Defenders" "Naked City" and a dozen others. When I asked her how it feels to be a TV star, she remarked, "I'll let you know when I become one. And that won't be through TV." Elizabeth Ashley is perhaps better known to TV audiences, but mainly because she recently star-: red in a Broadway show, "Take Her She's Mine." Miss Ashley is one of the most talented young-i sters in all of show business to-! day, and she is looking to improve herself. "That's why I like television," she recently said. "It is a wonderful training ground." Carol Lawrence skyrocketed to prominence through her starring role in Broadway's "West Side Story." On television, in dramatic roles she scored equally impressively.

But her opinion of television is less than enthusiastic. "Television," she said, "does not have the material for great entertainment, or the money to present what it has in a good enough light. I am thrilled when I'm offered a good script, be cause there are so few of them, and I really do like to work in TV, even though it is almost impossible to get anywhere." Unlike Films TV Breeds By Frank Langley TV Time Staff Writer New York, June 6 Will television ever have a Marilyn Monroe or a Clark Gable? The answer is an emphatic no!

HOUSE GROUP LEAVES DEPLETION TAX SAME Washington, June 6 (AP) The House Ways and Means Committee voted today to leave untouched the 27 per cent deple tion allowance the oil and gas industry uses in computing income taxes. The committee, rewriting President Kennedy's tax reduction and revision bill, turned down three administration proposals that would have hiked the industry's tax bill by amounts estimated up to million a year.

The committee decision leaves out of the draft bill any changes in depletion allowances on other minerals as well as oil and gas.
