...should the packagers be sent packing? Few think so. Tax-haunted Hollywood talents savor the capital-gains advantages of independent production. Adds NBC's Kintner: "We simply haven't enough creative brains and personnel to supply all the programs." Undoubtedly, there should be far more network-produced shows, but the real trouble is not that the networks buy from packagers, but that they do not exercise enough care in what they buy. Example: ABC bought the disastrous Adventures in Paradise from 20th Century-Fox, Alaskans, Bourbon Street Beat and Hawaiian Eye from Warner's-all without even...

Later, rounding out the acclaim, State Secretary John Foster Dulles called with a well-done message from Walter Reed Hospital...
Spry enough to savor a Texas-style barbecue, although no longer up to striking the daily "blow for liberty"-as a concession to the years, he manfully abandoned bourbon and stogies six weeks ago -weatherbeaten Elder Statesman John Nance Garner, longtime (1903-32) Texas Congressman, two-term (1933-41) Vice President, spruced up in a new blue suit and his old battered Stetson for a misty-eyed celebration of his goth birthday. On hand for the doings: some 3,000 of the home folks in dusty Uvalde, a loyal guard of political cronies, including ex-President Harry Truman, House Speaker...
