...price on his head and the hope in his heart of becoming a simple rancher. Like many a sagebrush Robin Hood, McCrea is bad only because he is good. He stakes a couple of settlers (Dorothy Malone and Henry Hull) to the cost of a new well, and, to feather the nest of a sick buddy, agrees to stick up just one more train. As helpers, he has a gang of really bad men, who try to doublecross him, and he has the single-minded love of a dingily blonde half-breed (Virginia Mayo...
...center of all this to-do is Milton Berle, a jack-of-all-turns vaudeville comic who has gone into television and won a bright new feather for his very old hat. In a space of eight months, Berle's Texaco Star Theater (Tues. 8 p.m. E.D.T., NBCTV) has made him the undisputed No. 1 performer on U.S. TV.

There was a beanie for girls (the Pen 'n Dink, 69?), a Robin Hood hat for boys (the Alpen, 59?) and even a beret-style (with better felt) for adults ($1.69). All were rakishly decorated with a long feather tipped with a ballpoint pen. Benay-Albee has stepped up production to 180,000 feather hats a week...
Last week Heil had another feather in his discoverer's cap. Florence, which in recent months has been sending its art treasures to the U.S. for display (TIME, Feb. 7), wanted to borrow the wandering Florentine boy for an exhibition in the Museum of the Bargello this spring...
