...weeks of another season, SHOW BUSINESS turns at cover length to the Private Eyes. Two seasons back, the giveaways dominated the air, and last year the major switch was out of the claustrophobic isolation booth into the West's wide-open spaces.

...calls for a combined budget of upwards of $1,250,000 a week-a bankroll that supports sleuths ranging from a corn-fed country operative named Hannibal Cobb, who appears in five-minute syndicated slices, to a brand-new sunburned entry, Hawaiian Eye, with a mixture of lets and lead, and a full hour on the screen.
