...Negro preacher. Even more painful is The Queen and I (CBS), a situation comedy whose plot is Bilko at sea. Very much at sea- the Queen being an ocean liner headed for mothballs. Keeping it afloat is a moronic purser (Larry Storch), whose schemes, like catering bar mitzvahs in port, are always being thwarted by the prissy first officer (Billy De Wolfe). The boat is shipshape; the gags are strictly for the scrapyard.

Back at Honolulu, 1,500 civilian and military personnel lined up outside of the U.S. Army's Tripler General Hospital and Queen's Medical Center in response to pleas for blood. Soon after the gutted ship returned to port, a team of damage experts boarded her and, after viewing the gaping deck holes, decided that the seven-year-old, $444-million carrier would have to return to the mainland for extensive repairs.
