HOLLYWOOD
By GENE HANDSAKER
Associated Pres* Writer
Hollywood—Edgar Bergen and
his smart-aleck dummy, Charlie
McCarthy, have made the leap Into
television—and It was quite an ef-
fort.
Their occasional shows will be
on fihn, and the first, half-hour
reel cost around $60,000 to pro-
duce. Thirty thousand feet were
shot to get the 3,000 used. Char
lie’s white shirts had to be dyed
pale blue so they wouldn’t glare
on TV. His impudent features and
Mortimer Snerd’s dumb ones had
to be toned down with pancake
make-up.
For the new medium, a sculp-
tor has even molded two new
heads for Charlie, working from
sketches and clay models by Ber
gen.' One head wears a sleepy ex-
presssion, the other a sour one.
And Bergen is full of ideas for
TV use. One is a completely agr*
Lous Scene between Charlie and
possibly a dummy hobo or far-
mer. “I’d like to do a dramatic
scene without any hokum,’’ Ber-
gen said.
He sees TV possibilities in any
ordinary wooden post. He’ll show
viewers how to put a hat and twig
on it, brush on a few features,
and bring it to life 'With ventrilo-
quism.
“Then I want to use pantomine,
magic tricks, chalk talks, and sha-
dow graphs as I used to do in
Chautauqua and vaudeville,’’ Ed-
gar said. His spring telecast will
introduce Effie Kiinker, the am-
orous spinster hr, his family of
dummies.
Bergen invited reporters to |
home high in Beverly Hill, to *
his first TV film. When he enter-
ed radio 18 years ago, many peo-
ple asked what a ventriloquist was
doing in that medium. On the
whole, the film indicates that TV

You probably don’t go about
preparing dinner with the second
Volume of “Circuit Analysis of
A-€ Power Systems’’ propped up
on the hread-board to read as you
Work. Or — If you’re a lady of
leisure — you probably would not
choose it as reading matter while
having breakfast in bed. It hap-
pens to be a textbook and refer-
ence work used in colleges and in
the training program at General
Electric.
But If it’s above most of our
womanly heads as reading, we
were all the more intrigued to
learn that a 67-year-old woman
wrote it. The second volume of
Edith Clarke’s technical work on
alternating current for machinery
has just come out. And it exists
because Edith Clarke was a wo-
man who just could not retire.
She thought she was retiring in
1946, when she quit as a research
engineer fer the General Electric
Company. She has a farm in Mary-
land and she was all set to settle
down.
But a farm was no place to
bury all the knowledge Edith
Clarke had stored up since 1911
—when she flouted womanly tra-
ditions by studying engineering
at the University of Wisconsin.
She got more knowhow working
for the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company in New York,
then still more getting her mas-
ter’s at the Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology, and even
more in over a quarter of a cen-
tury with General Electric.
In 1947 — two years after Miss
Clarke’s so-Called retirement —it
started all over again. She was in-
vited so spend a few months at
the University of Texas as a visit-
ing teacher. She is still there —
engaged in a new career in her
60’s .... of passing on all that
know-how to others.
To give you an idea of what
happened since then: In 1948,
Miss Clarke became the first wo-
man ever elected as a fellow of
the American Institute of Electri-
cal Engineers. In 1949, she was
the first woman professional engi-
neer to receive the “Woman’s
Badge” of the National Honor-
ary Electrical Engineering Fra-
ternity, Tau Beta Pi, and was
elected to another such frater-
nity, the- Eta Kappa Nur ™ - ■
Asked what made her change
her mind about retiring, she said:
“Students and their point of
view." She does spend summers
on that Maryland farm, but the
rest of the time her enthusiasm
goes into training talented young
electrical engineers.
If you think from this that
she’s a grind with a one-track
mind, she also has other enthus-
iasms. She used to play cham-
pionship tennis and she was an
adept swimmer, ski-er and skat-
er. She still loves to watch all
sports and games, hut—as Miu
Clarke pats it — “I limit my par-
ticipation now to contract bridge

when to quit.

But the public is Just as apt
to watch the vivacious, petite

as it is to view the lithe female

could desplease her more than
that. In fact, we don’t call Mizs

she objects to the feminine end-
ing. She says: “You don’t say ‘a

While relaxing in my contour

the soft blue veil of vapor from

thought—Get out of Korean—We

also. By. staying on trying to
save face, We could stay too long,
lose another part of the anatomy
and all Of the fixtures too—so
to speak. Anyone remembering
•early American history ’will re-
call the time the mighty British
came over to straighten out the
American colonists. The British
landed with superior equipment,
gaudy uniforms and marched,
marched to the accompaniment
of beating drums and piping fifes.
What happenfd? The colonists lit
in bn them, fighting with tricks
learned from the North American
Indian. The British soon got out,
they probably lost face but Brit-
ain continued to be a strong na-

unethically fighting colonists
started the Ameriel*r 4he Asuew-

"Writing a song about Rudolph
was no aceident,” Mark explain-
ed. “The idea first came toward
the end of 1948 when I read the
story by Boh May and couldn’t
get Rudolph off my mind. I knew
there’d be no rest for me until
I put the music to a saga of a
fog-bound Santa being, aided by a
doer whose glowing red hose cut
through the mist like a locomo-
tive headlight.”
Writing * fancifui, humorous
song like Rudolph was something
out of the ordinary for Maries as
his previous songs had mostly
been in a romantic vein. He wrote
“Who Calls,” recorded by Bing
Crosby; “Address Unknown,” re-
corded by the Ink; Spots; and
“She’ll Always Remember,” which
Glenn Miller and Dinah Shore did
delightfully. There# were all ro-
mantic, nothing resembling Ru-
dolph.
"However, if I learned nothing
else in the war, I learned that the
only way to get a thing out of
your system is to do something
about it,” Marks said. “After I
wrote the first three lines, I was
sure I had a hit just as I am sure
that my new song, ‘When Santa
Claus Gets Your Letter’, also will
be a hit. Gene Autry ha# already
made a record of it"
After writing Rudolph Marks
knocked on the door# of Tin Pan
Alley publishers for four months
and couldn’t get anyene to pub-
lish it. Then he published the song
himself under a one-man firm
known as the St. Nicholas Publish-
ing Company.
The song sold 20,000 copies
last year, and Gene Autry’s re-
