ON THE AIR
Louis Allen Joins
WMAL Staff Aug. 21
By BERNIE HARRISON
The best possible weather item of the month, short of the
arrival, by rockets, of an Arctic cold front, is the return of Louis
Allen to our local screens.
The former WTOP-9 weatherman joins the WMAL-7 roster
Sunday, August 21, and his first show, at 11:10, will ran for 10
minutes.
And two daily Monday through
Friday weather programs are in
the planning stage.
It goes without saying that
Allen's intelligent estimates of
the weather situation have been
sorely missed since his departure
from WTOP. A graduate me
teorologist, oceanographer, lec
turer and author. Allen brings
authority ks well as showman
ship to the field.
I like that 10-minute opener,
too. When the weather is page
one news, as it has been through
record-breaking July, a three
minute period that, like as not,
includes a commercial, a fashion
show, or remarks by a dog, is
somewhat less than adequate
TV’s inflexibility in this re
-1 speck is notorious.
There should be no excuse for
that around 11 p.m., when the
local stations are generally on
their own.
Anyway it looks as if Louis
won't have to race his motor to
rfeet in all the weather news. And
it further appears as if he got
precisely the ideal he wanted
from WMAL, for which his legion'
of lans can be grateful.
Prediction for his
Smooth sailing. Storm signals

There was a lot of excitement
jin town last week over a novel
jproposltion, Informally submitted
to the FCC. on the question of
juHF stations.
In brief, the proposition, ex
j plained by John H. Mullaney,
consulting engineer, outlined a
plan that could be adopted with
out rule making which would
, temporarily solve the dilemma
of stations attempting to operate
in the UHF belt. «All Washlng
! ton stations are in the VHF
band).
It is Mullaney's contention
that 200 more stations could be
accommodated on VHF, without
interfering with any of the exist
ing stations! So the failing UHF
stations would simply shift to
VHF.
The commission, of course, is
now faced with the problem of
de-intermixture and It is doubt
ful if it could get around to Mul
laney’s plan, which was pre
isented by the law firm of Welch,
Mott and Morgan, until Septem
ber.
It is an attractive idea at any
rate, provided that it checks out
scientifically.
*a a *
How would it apply to the
Washington area?
Unfortunately, we would get
only one more VHF station, and
since there are a number of
groups interested in going on
the air, there would be a terrific
! fight before the FCC.
Welch, Mott and Morgan got
into this because of the plight

the idea of converters to either

Quickie Review: Despite some
i atrocious performances by Bob

too much concentration on the
[ familiar riff of a story, his “One
; Night Stand” show for Climax
last Thursday, managed to re
create plenty of atmoshpere of
‘ the days of the big bands. When
Bob went to Chicago to play his
[ concert, it was just astounding
' to listen to the roster' of big

Hedda Hopper
Takes Top Spot
In Ad Lib TV
BEVERLY HILLS. Calif., Aug.
8 UP). —Conrad Hilton put up the
sl6 million, but it tdok Columnist
Hedda Hopper, with some of the
choicest ad libbing ever heard on
television, really to launch the
new Beverly Hilton Hotel yester
day.
Mr. Hilton let the Nation take
a TV look at the most luxurious
of his—or probably anyone rise’s
hotels on the NBC Variety
Hour. Miss Hopper was his of
ficial hostess on the show.
Hedda’s job was mostly to ta
ble hop with movie stars mostly
without script.

But before the show was flve
minutes-old Heda almost walked
in front of the camera when she
wasn’t supposed to. Realizing
her predicament, she fell quickly
to the floor and started crawling
On her knees out of camera
range.
It was a showmanly effort un- •
til she started pulling her hand

pulled all the glasses off one
table and almost knocked Edgar

off the air. Ventriloquist Bergan,
