...watching the competition with an accountant's eye. Said U.-I.'s President Milton Rackmil: "Any decision [to plunge into TV] hinges on the profits." Major clue to Hollywood's interest in TV deals lies in the booming success of ABC's tie-in with Walt Disney (TIME, Dec. 27). Since its start last October, Disneyland has been in the top ten in the Nielsen ratings; one of its songs, The Ballad of Davy Crockett, is a frequent No. 1 on the Hit Parade.

Most authentic touch: the serious, heavily accented explanation of the nation's own German born rocket experts, Willy Ley and Wernher von Braun. To pay a Person-to-Person (CBS Fri. 10:30 p.m., E.S.T.) visit to Internal Revenue Boss T. Coleman Andrews at his modest 4½-room apartment in Parkfairfax, Va., CBS's Ed Murrow unearthed an odd fact: Collector Andrews...
