...succession of inane interviews. Sample: "Here's Jackie Cooper-how are you liking this, Jackie?" Jackie (plugging his play, King of Hearts) said it was wonderful, just wonderful. So did Virginia Mayo (plugging Warner's The Silver Chalice), Judy Holliday (plugging Phffft), Carol Haney (plugging The Pajama Game), and Pinky Lee (plugging himself). Whenever Commentators Francis and Downs ran out of comments-which was frequently-the TV camera returned to the studio for commercials by Tootsie Roll, Crosley, Heinz, Alcoa, and U.S..toy manufacturers. There was not much time left for the parade...

...Pajama Game (John Raitt, Janis Paige, Eddie Foy Jr., Carol Haney, Stanley Prager; Columbia LP). The song list of the George Abbott-Richard Bissell hit has a few nifties: Hey There, Her Is, There Once Was a Man (a satire on hillbilly tunes), and Hernando's Hideaway (a take-off on tangos...

...well managed that even the fumbles seem something new in footwork. There are the kind of peppy dance numbers that suggest a cheerleaders' carnival, and there is a great deal of music with an infectious, elementary lilt.

...show concerns life in a pajama factory. What this setting lacks in glamour, the cast more than makes up. Janis Paige, who desported in her unmentionables in Remains To Be Seen, is back in fine voice and better shape. Best of all, Jerome Robbin has discovered a dancer, Carol Haney, who scores the biggest personal hit since Carol Channing extolled the virtues of precious stones.

...lost a close decision to ex-Oklahoma University star Jack Blubaugh, now wrestling for the Armed Services wrestling squad. In previous rounds, Lee pinned Rush of the U.S. Navy, Coursen of Springfield, Rose of Long Island, and Haney of the Baltimore Y.M.C.A. In a fourth round match, leading by a fair margin. Lee rolled over on his own shoulders in applying a cradle hold to Armand Taylor, a Norfolk, Virginia, schoolboy, and since Olympic touch-fall rules were followed in the tournament, was declared loser. Blubaugh placed first and Taylor second...
