HOLLYWOOD NOTES By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (® — The age of | vaudeville is over for teievision, says Milton Berle, whose variety | show made him TV's top draw. Berle has abandoned his slam- bang vaudeo format this season, substituting a story-line program. He explained his reasons while table-hopping in the Warner Broth- ers commissary, He was visiting from the nearby NBC-TV studios, which he helped inaugurate, last Saturday. “I'd say I did about all I could with the vaudeville format,” he remarked. “I was the first one in it, and I played it for four years. I milked it. That’s why they call me Milkin’ Berle, if you don’t mind the bad joke. “The vaudeville format was great, In all modesty, I ean say | that I introduced to TV such per- | formers as Lucille Ball, Martin and Lewis, Tony Martin, and many, many others who now have their own shows. That's one | of the troubles now—so many of | the big names have their own shows. There isn't good talent left | to provide top shows 39 times a | year. “And another thing—people have gotten tired of the vaudeville type of show, You can’t continue say- | ing, ‘And now I'd like to intro- duce—” before all the acts, You can't go on doing the same skits, The material is bound to get thin.” The comic added that the TV market was flooded with too many vaudeville shows after his initial success. And he predicts that the | same thing will happen with sit- | uation-comedy shows, which are now the rage. “Everybody's looking at the suc- cess of Lucille Ball's show,” he | commented. “Now we'll have a flock of comedy shows like it, But after a year or so, the public will ; get fed up with the same routines like men behaving like women and | women behaving like men.” Berle said he was delighted with his new show, which permits him some moments of restraint, “People get to see a new side of me,” he said. “I play myself, Milton Berle, and his troubles of putting a show together. I don't have to be out there yocking it | up every minute. You can't be boff all the time, anyway.” Berle, long known as a human dynamo, admitted that he was just as happy to-be slowing down a bit. He appears on TV only three weeks out of four. The fourth week in his time slot is taken up by a eircus-background show with Joe E. Brown, Dolores Gray and John Raitt. “Another thing—I am now mere- ly a performer,” he added. *‘With | my old show, I did everything— producing, directing, writing. The result was that I was neglecting my own performance. I was spreading myself too thin, and I didn’t have enough time to devote to myself as an actor. Curious hobbies or habits are no novelty in Hollywood, but here’s a gal with one so genuine that it sounds like a gimmick but isn’t. Starlet Kathleen Crowley repairs | automobiles. The starlet’s unique talent came to light when her car stalled on the 20th Century-Fox lot. She raised the hood and began tinker- ing with the engine. This brought taunts of “grease monkey!” from nearby males. Marilyn Monroe strolled by and suggested that Kathleen call the maintenance department. Kathleen did, but before the re- pair man arrived, she had the motor running, She drove off as the scoffing males stood by in open-mouthed amazement. The starlet, whose other accom plishments include being Miss New Jersey in the 1949 Miss America | contest, explained how she became acquainted with motors, “I grew up in Green Bank, N.J a community of about 200 people,” she said Egg Harbor, 20 miles away, That's where TI went to school, and that's | where the nearest stores and gar. age were.

But the Boston researcher em- phasized that the drug—previously used to control bleeding—does not produce permanent sterility. He said 220 of the women have had a baby or have become’ pregnant after they and their husbands quit taking the pills. The Rev. Francis J. Connell,-a Redemptorist priest and dean of sacred theology at the Catholic University of America, was asked to comment on the report. He de- clared any use of such pills with the “direct intent of preventing conception would be a violation of the Divine Law as it affects birth, according to Catholic interpreta- tion of God's law.” “This is because a substance taken orally with the direct intent to prevent birth in no way differs from any other means of unnatural contraception,” he said, Bishop G. Bromley Qxnam, bish- op of the Washington, D.C., area of the Methodist careh, also asked to comment, said: “It is in accord with the moral law to plan properly for the com- ing of children. | may enable mothers to space their children with due regard for health, education and service to. \ society. The discovery is to be commended, not condemned.” Dr. Sieve, while reporting pre- liminary success, stressed that | ‘much more clinieal data must be accumulated before the general ; use of this anti-fertility factor is warranted.” Declaring the substance “‘prom- jises safe and controllable fertil- ity,” he said it “can be taken in- ‘definitely without toxic (harmful) effects or permanent inhibition of fertility.” The pills must be taken for 10 consecutive days before their anti- fertility action becomes effective. They must be taken continuously thereafter to assure lack of fertil- ity. Dr. Sieve added: “fertility can be remere merely by ones the drug for a 48-hour period,” 4 The drug is called “phosphory® came in for a warm pit of praise {lated hesperidin.” Dr. Sieve said other researchers SEE WHAT YOU GAIN WITH THESE EXCLUSIVE CHEVROLET FEATURES YOU SAVE | SE WHAT WITH THE This discovery | |TO BUILD OR REPAIR such animal studies and then un- dertook the tests with humans. He said the substance is, be- papi: = act as an ey factor by interfering ace tion of .a body ‘chemical called “hyaluronidase” which in turn is believed to aid in the impregna- tion of the female egg by the nale sperm. The scientist reported that all 298 couples had had at least one child before undergoing the. pill treatment, but that two of the cou- ples had shown an apparent ster- ility for some time prior to the test, And yet, he said, the women in both those couples were among the first to become pregnant after stopping the pill-taking. This suggests, he said, that the chemical may have the power of promoting fertility in persons de- ficient in that line—while at the same time inhibiting it in normal- | ly-fertile people, But he said furth- | er study would be needed to con- firm this idea, Father Connell said the Roman Catholic Church condones only (1) complete sexual abstinence or (2) the “rhythm method” of control- ling birth—the rhythm method be- ing based, he said, on a “natural” cycle of non-fertility in the female each month.
