Miss Knight
Would Like
’ TV Format
By Harry MacArthur
Evelyn Knight is a singer with
a problem. You wouldn’t think it
to watch her entertaining a packed
Statler Embassy Room or to talk
to her later, but the problem is
" there.
It’s this television. A girl in
show business has to go where
show business goes and it is Miss
Knight’s feeling that a lot of it is
going to television. That’s where
the lucrative careers will be.
The tall, talented and handsome
Washington contribution to the
entertainment world has made a
Inumber of television appearances,
of course, with Milton Berle and
others. You can't make a career
out of guest appearances, however,
though Fred Allen does seem to
have made a season out of them.
What Miss Knight wants is a TV
show starring Evelyn Knight.
“I don't want to do what some
one else already has done," she
was saying the other night. "It
has to be different and something
I- ‘different’ in television is hard to
find. I can’t just stand up there
and sine- nnhndv would look.”
* * * *
This last statement, of course,:
is debatable. The Embassy Room
customers look, all right. They put
aside their forks, their glasses and
their idle conversation and pay
strict attention when Miss Knight
comes out to sing. The reward for
this close attention is a thorough
ly enjoyable musical interlude.
Her years away from Washing
ton as a big-time popular singer I
have given Miss Knight an abund
ance of assurance and she can
take command of a dinner-supper
club. She covers a wide range
from ballad to novelty number to
nursery rhyme and she seems
completely at home in everything
she does.
One of her greatest assets (in
addition to a voice which is a fine
musical instrument, as you realize
if you pause to think about it) is
a sense of humor versatile enough'
to cover everything, including her-1
self. Singing is fun and she is the
first one to enjoy any Evelyn
Knight song. It is an attitude to
ward her work which gives Miss
Knight a great deal of that easy
nonchalance which marks the
singing of Bing Crosby.
She is quite a balladeer and
quite a personality. Thqre ought
, to be some way to give the tele
vision audience the pleasure of
| her regular company.
* * * *
Too Authentic: You may recall
the scene in last week’s “Pulitzer
Prize Playhouse” in which a pair
of soldiers shared their C rations
with a Korean child, played by
eight-year-old Lawrence Lee. Well,
jit seems that Director Frank Tel
ford, a stickler for authenticity,
ordered real C ration used. It was,
during dress rehearsal, when
young Master Lee took one bite,
turned up his nose and refused to
go near the second spoonful.
* * * *
Animal Department: Dogs with
•too much family tree and no
'pedigree will have their- day next!

INTER
MARKET CITY
. . . with Meredith Young
Everyone is concerned about
the high cost of meat^—espe
cially the meat merchants of
Center Market City. Remem
ber, they are independent
merchants and their aim is to
please you, the consumer, be
cause their business depends
on your patronage. They are
just as distressed about the
high prices as you and I, be
cause when the retail price
goes up, their profit becomes
less. That sounds odd, but it’s
true because they have had to
pay a higher wholesale price
for the meat but they realize
that if they price it in propor
tion to the increase the house
wife will not buy. In order
to do business they make a
smaller profit. So don’t glare
at your butcher when he
quotes you the price as you
buy your meats at Center Mar
ket. Remember, he’s on your
side, too.
Do you remember when it
was clever repartee to' quip,
“Wanta buy a duck?” Well,
Mr. Jones, of Javin’s Poultrv
Stand (No. 430 —Phone NA.
2672), isn’t trying to be funny'
when he asks that of you this
week, he’s helping you save
money on your foor buying.
Try one of his Long Island
