Memphis World Memphis World Publishing Co. 1968-05-18 J. A. Beauchamp TV CAMEOS: Laugh-In' Really Socked It to OI' George FOR THE last few months George Schlatter was busy, many nights until 1 a.m., producing, directing;, cutting, editing and worrying over the Rowan-Martin "Laugh-In" TV show —and, he says, nobody was more astonished than he, when he finally emerged Into the open air, started going around the country ... and found the program's catch-phrases were the rage of the young. "Sock it to me, George!" the high school and college kids told him, or "Very interesting, very Interesting," not to mention "Here come de judge!" Out of context, these may not seem much, but sprinkled all through "Laugh-In," like the running gags in the old Pete Smith movie shorts, they bring on the belly laughs. "I was floored," says the easygoing, hard-working Schlatter, who teethed on TV by producing the Dinah Shore and Judy Garland shows a few seasons back, "even though I spent two two or three years trying to put this program together because I believed in it so much. I thought It'd be successful— but nothing like this. You know, we only had been on the air five or six weeks ("Laugh-In" started in January), when we got eight Emmy nominations!" George's partner, Ed Friendly, was involved in the late, witty program, "TW 3," and there are overtones of that show in the Rowan-Martin one. "Except," Schlatter says, "we're less bitter. We make a little social comment here and there, but we're not a protest show; we don't shoot out venom." From the beginning, Schlatter had the idea of a genuine crazy program — its early working titles were "Cockamamy" and then "Put-On"—but he had to overcome network opposition to such an out-and-out nonsensical idea. "You can't carry it on comedy alone," they said. "You have to have guest stars. Remember, the viewer's mentality Is twelve." And so on. Doggedly, George stuck to his guns and today he has a great hit. "Or, sub-titled, a playpen for monkeys," he says wryly. "All our performers are nuts. It was fun working with them for the 14 shows this late in the season, but next year I may break down under a full program of tapings. "It's a wild thing," he says, "when you come to work each day and wonder what'll happen. Everyone involved, especially the writers, is a renegade or cuckoo. Take Digby Wolfe, one of our writers." George shakes his head. "He'll be put away one day." Rowan and Martin, who are bonkers enough to begin with, act as the liaison officers between the younger and older generations, George says. "They bridge the gap," he explains, "although sometimes I think they're just as daffy as the rest" The performers Involved In the "Laugh-In" screwiness are the lively, exuberant, cockeyed kind of brash young people who used to be found in bright Broadway revues. The revue is almost a dead art form now, however, and aside from this show, you only can catch up with this Irreverent species by dropping into some of the sophisticated supper clubs, such as Downstairs at the Upstairs. Mr. Schlatter looks forward a little hesitantly to next fall's new season. "Arte Johnson, our resident genius, wants to do bird calls—his specialty is cawing like a crow—and we also have plans to pay red-carpeted, brassband homage to Barbara Eden's navel, which NBC kept off the air for so long on 'I Dream of Jeannie,'" he says. He shrugs. "If it all doesn't kill me, It should be an absorbing season." Distributed by King features Syndicate Son's Death By Lighting Sparks Article To Help Others By Doctor A Carbondale, Pa., doctor whose son was killed by lightening while playing golf is the author of a scientific article on "death by lightning" in the May issue of GP, scientific publication of the American Academy of General Practice. The article, timely because most lightning deaths occur in spring and summer, is designed to aid family doctors to help prevent lighteing accidents and care for victims. Dr. Thomas H. Coleman. as Academy members and head of the Department of Electrocardiology at St. Joseph's hospital, Carbondale, was the father of 21 -year-old Thomas H. Coleman, Jr., killed last July at Crystal Lake, Pa According to Dr. Coleman, his was walking with on iron on Ills shoulder after teeing off with a foursome. The bolt struck literally "from the blue," according to witnesses who said the .sun was out and the sky blue. Though a physician was in the group, and immediate attempts at closed chest cardiac massage and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation were made, the younger Coleman never regained consciousness and died about two hours later. Dr Coleman opens the article with an explanation of the physics of lightning, noting that a stroke of lightning carries a Jolt of from 12,000 to 20,000 amperes as compared with the less than one ampere of current in a 100-watt light bulb. He adds that some 150 persons die from lightning injuries in an average year, most of them male and most outdoors on the farm, the golf course of in recreational areas. He notes also that the cause of death in lightning fatalities usually is sudden cardiac arrest or ventricular fibrillation (loss of rhythm) associated with severe injury to the central nervous system. The author states that central nervous system damage is similar to that from severe head injury, and includes hemorrhage, cortical tears and subdural hematoma. In hose not fatally injured, most have paralysis of the legs and burning or prickling sensations in the arms which last for varying periods of time. Coma may last for several days to several weeks, but return to normal or near-normal is virtually assured. Interestingly, Dr. Coleman notes, intelligence and mental capacity do not appear to be Impaired. He lists other effects, including cataracts, ruptured ear drums, loss of tastste, dizziness, burns (usually occurring when the victim is carrying a metal object), and rarely, psychotic recations, leukemia and myocardial Infarction (rupture of the heart muscle). He adds that the degree of Injury depends on the power of the bolt, duration of its effect, position and grounding of the victim, site of entrance into the body of the charge, Its disposition in the body and the poiint of exit from the body. Death, Dr. Coleman says, invariably will occur immediately or within several hours; if the victim survives 24 hours he can expect to recover. The author recounts several Important preventive measures, warning that everyone should beware of the hot, humid day with thundershowers in the area. The sun overhead when such conditions apply should not rule out precautionary measures, he says, noting that if anything the sun may actually Intensify the electromagnetic field that Is present before the lightning discharge. He points out that a good test of the presence of this bolt-promoting field is turning on a radio (perhaps a transistor for golfers, hikers, etc.) and tuning the volume down If there is heavy static, there Is excessive electrical activity in the area. Dr. Coleman closes with a summary of the United States Golf Association's guide to protection against lightning on the golf course: Do, not raise clubs or umbrellas above your head. Avoid hilltos, open spaces, small trees and isolated trees. Do, not go near tractors, golf carts, scooters or other farm machinery near or on the golf course. Seek shelter In deep woods, depressed areas and cars with metal tops. Douglasville The Cousionian Chapter of the National Junior Honor Society of the R. L.

Money Back For men and wemen. ISABELLA P.O.Box 339, Dept Gary, Indians 46401 WALL STREET Note book BY ROBERT B. JOHNSON, Research Director PAINE, WEBBER, JACKSON & CURTIS Member New York Stock Exchange NEW YORK (ED)—After President Johnson's dramatic move to de-escalate the Vietnam war, the stock market reflected the unqualified enthusiasm with which all Americans greeted the prospect of peace. Record-breaking numbers of shares were traded, prices rose, excitement was genuine—proving more concretely than with mere words—that peace is bullish. Even if peace is not achieved in the next few months, I believe we may have seen the end of the major threat—the fear which has been on everyone's mind and which has been holding down the stock market for many months — the threat of further escalation. This now seems to have all but disappeared. It's only reasonable to anticipate disappointments—on the road to peace. And the market will react to such disappointments. However, I doubt that we'll see more than minor corrections and "retracements." I think that peace in Vietnam will permit resolution of most of the major economic problems facing the U.S. It will be constructive toward a reduction in our Federal budget deficit . . . and certainly most constructive toward achieving a balance in our international payments account. It will reduce the pace of the inflationary spiral .. . and consequently reduce the need for economic restraints. The first such restraint we probably could forget about is any prospect of wage and price controls. Second. William McC. Martin Jr., at the Federal Reserve Board, could relax a bit with respect to tightened monetary policy (and this permit interest rates at least to level out—and possibly decline moderately.) Third, peace in Vietnam would reduce the pressures for fiscal restraint... but the need will not disappear. In my opinion if Federal spending Is reduced dramatically (as a result of the end of the Vietnam war) — and the economy appears to move downward from its position of full employment — we can expect pressure for-a tax cut. Thus, it seems to me that all the news is good ... and we're at long last able to hope for a reasonably early end to the biggest problem which has confronted Americans in many years. A resolution of which will do much to correct the imbalances and distortions created in the national economy by the Vietnam war. I repeat, this is the most bullish news that we could have anticipated. 4/68 Peace is Bullish BY ROBERT B.

AN ODE TO DR. M. L KING, JR. (April 10, 1968) .. By Anne V. Traylor 29993 N. Crestford Dr. Altapeht, Calif. Negroes Here To Slay, Says NAACP's Wilkins Negroes are not going back to Africa or establish any separate nation because "this Is our country and well stay right here where we belong and fight for what's ours," Roy Willkins, executive director of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, told 3,000 cheering delegates at a session of the 38th quadrennial conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church here, Monday, May 6. Turning to the report of the, National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, of which he was a member, Mr. Wilkins said the church is well qualified to help implement the Commission's recommendation for "the creation of new attitudes, new understanding, and a new will" to rid the nation of racism. "The church," he said "has the dedication, belife and history to undertake that task. But this is no new message to you. All that that report did was to vinicate what you started out to do In 1767 when Richard Allen and Absalom Joes founded the AME Church." The same week, on May 10, Mr. Wilkins was the human relations night speaker at the quadrennial conference of the AME Zion Church in Detroit.

The message contained in our Lesson today to that insincere worship Is an offence to God. He sees Into our hearts, so we do not deceive Him If we are hyprocritical We must not go Into His house simply because it Is the "thing to do" ... an acceptable custom. We must go, rather, fully aware of where we are going, and what our attendance implies. This attitude on our part is the only way to be receptive to the renewal we can derive from our church attendance — the renewal of spirit that everyone needs In life ... the ability to hear, to remember, and use. For a clear, uncluttered mind, divested of everyday cares and business worries, is a receptive mind. The philosophy contained In the Book of Ecclesiastes Is especially applicable to our day and time. Ecclesiastes is concerned with spiritual riches, as opposed to worldly riches. Today, unfortunately, money — and what money can buy — has become the yardstick of modern American living. We need to heed the voice of Ecclesiastes .... "He who loves money will not be satisfied with money; nor he who loves wealth, with gain; this also is vanity." If we will but pause and reflect we will realize that money cannot satisfy our spiritual needs; on the contrary, It can blunt our sensitivities, our concern, our love for our fellowmen .. . all of which was the baste teaching of Jesus Christ while He was on earth, among men. And while we acknowlege that there Is, of necessity, no virtue in poverty, we CAN take heart in the knowledge that there IS an advantage in being unencumbered by possessions! Tranquility of spirit is hard to come by, embroiled as we are in the hectic pace of our twentieth century world; yet is one of mankind's greatest riches. For, while knowledge and progress have brought mankind many benefits, they have also exacted their toll — mentally, emotionally, and physically. It becomes increasingly harder to set aside a time for quiet reflection, for communication with one's Inner self, and with God. Indeed, there are many among us who actually fear solitude, so conditioned are we to the pace of today! It is noteworthy that communion with God, throughout the Bible, has always taken place in quiet, lonely places. God chose His leaders from among the people, and — without exception — they were men who, by occupation, were forced to live apart from the companionship and the distractions of cities and commerce! Would it be too much to suppose that such men were therefore given to analyzing themselves inwardly, without the distraction of people, places and things? Would it be unreasonable to presuppose that their spirits were more understanding, more tolerant towards the preoccupations and foibles of others; their ears sharper, their eyes keener than the eyes and ears and spirit of those of the cities, surrounded as they were by the noises, the demands, the distractions of commerce and politics? Man is not great by virtue of his worldly possessions; rather, be attains greatness by reason of his Inner strengths, his inner beliefs ... and these are nortured by commonion with God. The writer of Ecclesiastes had lived fully, experimenting with his life, and had come to the conclusion — by trial and error — that the fundamental values of life were not contained in worldly things, but — rather — in the spiritual values. That he was, (in later years) able to reduce his life to the fundamental truths, is to our everlasting benefit, and we will be wise if we heed this printed word. We can learn the hard way . . . by our own mistakes; we will, however, be wiser if we learn by the experiences of otters. By virtue of the writings of Ecclesiastes, let us resolve to set aside a few minutes each day, in the wilderness of our beings, to commune with God, to seek His guidance, and to dedicate ourselves anew to His service.

The brilliant ex-Air Force officer expressed this view Sunday as he delivered the vesper message at St. Paul AME Church, Where the Rev. A. Richard Smith is paspastor. The occasion was the re-activation of the talented Saint Cecelia Children's Choir, and Atlanta Citizens turned out in large numbers to demonstrate their esteem for the late Dr. Richard Albert Billings, who organized the choir and sponsored the monthly Vesper Series for 27 years. Mr. Flanagan, who was invited by the late Dr Billings last Dec. to speak at the anuary Vesper Hour, delivered a great message, and the musical program, arranged by Dr. E A. Starling was loaded with surprises. "The door is open and all the Negro needs to do is to keep pushing." the NAACp executive said as he explained "we have Just about all the legislation we need on the law books," and added, "all we have to do now is to insist on having the laws enforced." Using the public schools for an example, he reminded the audience that the Atlanta Board of Education is under orders to desegregate all schools and said the NAACP is encouraging parents to request transfers for their children to enter all-white schools. He said he is convinced that the Negro teacher is as competent as the white teacher, then explained that over-crowded classrooms make the Negro teacher a. "glorified baby-sitter." Mr. Flanagan, who served in the United States Air Force 15 years, observed: "I saw the walls of segregation tumble In the armed forces by executive proclamation and the transition was smooth." He told the audience that we are now fighting the housing battle and must start pushing to eradicate all slums. Among the special features of the "Mothers Day" Vesper Hour were dramatic interpretations of "The Lord's Prayer" by Malotta, and "I Believe," by the Interpretative Dance Group from fined Elementary School, directed by Mrs. Ellen Jones. Other feature numbers included. "Dancing Sunbeams," "Folk Song Style," and "Plantive Melody." by the L. J. Campbell String Ensemble, under the direction of Mrs, "Rhoda Ann Broadnax; "Forest Shadows," "Ballet Scene." and "Black Falcon Overture," by the L. J. Campbell School Band, under the direction of Mrs. Vivian Huggins. Directed by Dr. Starling and accompanied by Mrs. E. H. Scott, the well-trained Saint Cecelia. Children's Choir sang "Walk With Lord," "One Little Cardle, and "Deep River." Mable Jones rendered a solo, "Songs My. Mother Taught Me." The program opened with the organ prelude by Dr. Staring and Rev. J. Robert Smith read sentences and offered the prayer. Vice President Humphrey Says He's A Soul Brother Vice Presidente Hubert H.
