Traveling Refreshment. The visit to Washington was not Home's first desertion of the $250,000 Manhattan studio built especially for the middle one of NBC's three big weekday "magazine" shows (the others: Today and Tonight). The idea for the exodus came from NBC President Pat Weaver, who decided that Home needed an occasional trip from New York to find "refreshment in ... the new ideas and new contacts that result from any physical change."

...contrast with this high attendance on Sundays were the late evening weekday figures. At 11.15 p. m. on an average exam period evening, only 269 were studying in Lamont. If these students had all been upperclassmen whose House libraries could not accommodate them, we might justifiably demand that Lamont be kept open past 10 p. m. for their convenience.

Late in the afternoon he returns...

They live in the Takarazuka Operatic School for Girls, which fatherly Impresario Kobayashi runs with a strict, decorous hand (no dating, pupils to leave the school only in pairs, weekday curfew at 7). To teach them their musical trade, the girls are given a solid year of voice, ballet, Japanese Western dancing, English. After a year, they are graduated to the chorus (pay: 10,000 yen a month, or $27.77). The 30 stars make ten times that much. The girls wear blue jeans, sweaters, and horsetail hairdos in school...
