Look Here! brings NBC's bowstringtaut Martin Agronsky, 42, into what he calls "the tremendously rich area between Mike Wallace and Ed Murrow." In the paneled, high-ceilinged office of John Foster Dulles, Agronsky tested his new concept-"penetrating the wellsprings of character"-to good effect.

Last week, as usual, The Last Word produced the rarest sound on TV: the crackle of civilized talk. When the panel considered the difference between genius and talent, Brown handily paraphrased James Russell Lowell ("Talent is what a man possesses. Genius is what possesses a man"), and added: "You speak of a talent scout, on the assumption that talent can be found, but I have never heard of a genius scout, even on Madison Avenue."
