FROM A Spectator's standpoint, an official in any game is a necessary evil. He's a bum more often than a right guy, The popularity of the man with the whistle ~ lasts, when he is lucky to reach the heights with the fickle fans, about as long as a shout in a windstorm., . os

Hockey fans know Linesman Hal Jackson when they see him in the Coliseum. I want to talk about Hal. Indirectly, through Hal, referees, linesmen, umpires are going to get a pat on the back. I feel sorry for officials, Today a “Be Kind Week” should be promoted.

odd THINK A MOMENT how much running a referee does in a football game. Often he's knocked off his feet. Sometimes he winds up on the bottom of a pile of players. Any misfortune that befalls an official is applauded by the spectators,

In baseball the umpire is a crook, thief, blind one at that, and in the pay of the opposing team which won the game. If he turns in a flawless job, his thanks consist of one fan flinging over his shoulder: “About time that jerk began to learn the rules and improve his officiating.”

>. Po >

BACK TO HOCKEY and Hal Jackson. Would you believe it that Hal almost got hit with hockey sticks 11 times in the Capitols and Hershey game the other night. He did get hit in the arm once. Lucky the arm or the stick didn't break. In that game, Hal was bumped into the boards six times. Twenty-three times he had to jump into the air to avoid sticks and the puck. Eight times fleet-footed Hal jumped backward and gained the safety of the sideboard. Many times he has gone over and out during his career as a

Linesman Hal Jackson . . . when he ran out of gas on the hockey rink, he still couldn't leave the game.

It Happened Last Night ;

By Earl Wilson

NEW YORK, Feb. 19—Kefauver or not, Frank Costello goes right on these days leading the life of a Manhattan Gentleman. Outwardly, he’s hardly ruffied by the quiz which he considers nothing very menacing to him, but, well—“an annoyance.” I found him singularly unperturbed about the whole big tumult when I interviewed him at Attorney George Wolf's offices. Even the little interruptions to his dally routine don't bother him. Thursday, for example, was the third straight day that he missed his ritual 6f a morning shave at the Waldorf-Astoria Barber Shop. That's the shop of which Jack Benny said: “It's so high class that you have to shave before you go in to get a shave.” So 4 & “F. C.” shaved himself at his home, a comfortable 7-room, $315-a-month establishment on

the upper West Side, because of his early dates’

with the quizzers—but he's managed this week to have a massage or two at one of the best Turkish baths as usual, and cocktails at some of the very best bars. As a Broadway columnist, I've known him about four years. IL felt when I left a message for him to phone me, that he would. He did—and I was out. “This is Frank Costello calling,” he announced simply enough to the person-who took the call for me. That person asked where he could be reached. “I don't know—1I circulate a lot.” But he said he would be at his attorney's at a certain hour.. > bb # I WAS THERE—so was he, in a doublebreasted brown chalk stripe suit and a polka-dot tie. He instantly apologized for not phoning me earlier, “It would have been too early to call you, I get up at 6 o'clock every morning,” he said. “You seem pretty carefree about this whole deal,” I said. : Sc 9% “1 WELCOME the chance to clear the atmosphere of a lot of nonsense that's been told about me,” he said. “Did you make any statement to tee about that?” “Yes.” “What was it?” “I'm not privileged to disclose it. You'll have to ask the committee for it.”

Americana By Robert C. Ruark

NEW YORK, Feb. 19—Henry Morgan, a man with a chronic case of built-in irreverance, never seemed to settle comfortably into radio as a medium, but recently has appeared happily at home in television, an art form which baffled his alter ego, Fred Allen. s It is the end of a long and devious trail. Morgan has finally found -a mirror in which his talents as a knocker need no contrived distortion. There are so many things to criticize funnily in television that Henry merely is constrained to play it straight for laughs. @« 0D ANYBODY WITH an aerial knows that a great deal of our newest entertainment gadget depends heavily on the clumsy talent show, the quiz, the zany forum, the stuffy panel, the off-the-cuff converse. Possibly as‘ antidote to the seriousness of the times and of the basic worries of the ordinary Joe, we have achieved a golden age of idiocy in TV entertainment. By playing it deadpan, Morgan has succeeded in kidding the diapers off the sprawling child. In his Friday show (NBC, 9 p. m.) Morgan maintains a grave demeanor in presenting his screwy finds to the world. He now adopts professional deportment where he used to play Peck’s delinquent, and allows the basic trends in his medium to caricature themselves. ® In the last Morgan show I caught, the credits read something like this: “Misdirection by so-and-so. Technical stuff by so-and-so. Indian nuts sold in lobby.” And strikingly, “Henry Morgan .1s not a

puppet.” 4

HIS GUESTS in this particular program were a man who played a rubber glove (and very well, too) and who also. performed similtdneously on the clarinet and saxophone; a man who made a hobby of spelling all words backward, and pronotincing ‘them hind-end-to; also, a Cossack dancer from Brooklyn who flipped flaming daggers from his mouth, and a wonderful dog named Bruiser. - i Bruiser was a Mexican chihyahua, about’ the size and weight of a bar of soap.

‘ Sh & HAL'S TERRITORY is between the two lines. A referee's work takes him all over the ice. The officials are In there skating, taking body checks, dodging sticks and elbows a full 60 minutes. They skate as furiously as the players do when necessary. They stop and start with the play. Not as often as the players, true, but they know they have been working when the period ends. . I talked to Hal and his sidekick, Red Dunn, when they came off the Ice. Towels and cold soft drinks and a cigaret are the first things

they grab, x @ "i

are over and they don’t want to leave the game

entirely.’ A native of Cedar Springs, Ontario, 34-year-old Hal had a hockey stick in his hands at the age of 5. When he was 8, his family moved to Windsor, across the river from Detroit. After cutting some fancy figures around Windsor, Hal broke in big time hockey with the Chicago Blackhawks in 1936. He stayed with the Blackhawks for two years. A shoulder injury, requiring 176 stitches to patch, put him out of commission for a season. ¢ 9» IN 1939, Hal went with Providence. That was the year Providence beat Indianapolis out of the championship. The next year Hal came to the Indianapolis Capitols. A year and a half later, the Detroit Red Wings called him up for a 5%year stretch of duty. When he began to run out of gas, Hal put up his stick. Today he is a beefsteak salesman during the day and a linesman at night. He wanted to be part of the game he loves best. ; What does he think of the ribbing the fans dish out? That's the privilege of the man who buys a ticket and thinks he knows what happened 100 feet or more from where he is sitting, Soh oS “I CALL THEM according to the rules and my best judgment,” Hal said. “It would be foolish to suppose that an official would or could play favorites.” Hal has played against or with practically every player in the league. Joe Carveth was his roommate in Detroit for five years, Players on visiting teams and the local outfit are buddies ... off the ice. On the ice, they're hockey players; some too eager, others with quick tempers trying to win a game. Somebody has to be there to prevent it from turning into a free-for-all. *> Sb HAL RECALLED a decision he threw at a player about a year ago. The man played the game as long as Hal had. He questioned Hal's ruling. The rule was quoted. “When did they put that rule into effect?” stormed the player. “Five years ago,” answered Hal. All told, Hal Jackson carries 224 stitch marks on his body. If he could start all over again, he would. His greatest hope is that hockey grows in popularity. It's his game. ; Hats off to referees, linesmen, umpires, judges. They're out there to help the game.

oi Crime Quiz Only * Annoys Costello

This was decidedly a more cautious Costello than the one I interviewed in 1947 when he tossed off remarks such as this: “I'm out of slot machines since a year ago. If I made the money they -say I made, I should be in the can for evading taxes.” He was more formal now. I mentioned that there'd been a suggestion about him going to the first Kefauver hearing with pajamas and a couple bottles of whisky—a hint that he'd expected to spend a night in jail. : That was all & joke, Wolf said. Actually, within the briefcase, were records. “Jail?” spoke up Costello, alertly. “That's crazy. I'm a witness, not a defendant.” ¢ &

COSTELLO dispelled some of the mystery about how he was subpenaed. Actually, it was done most unexcitingly. Atty. Wolf, receiving a letter that the committee wanted to talk to him, arranged an appointment in his office for the subpena-server to hand the paper to Costello. It all took place that colorlessly on Jan. 4. > ¢ @ COSTELLO was careful throughout to say nothing deprecatory about the probers. He was just being a “willing witness,” and his counsel felt there was “no occasion for him to be distured about anything.” My past talks with Costello convinced me that he would admit knowing all sorts of characters—but merely knowing them. “Sure, I got friends,” he told me once. “The District Attorney knows all kinds of people, too.” And he's proud, too, that they've never “got” him—not even the late Mayor La Guardia. “I'm living more'n 30 years in a radius of 2 miles,” he sometimes says. “I can’t be such a bad guy or they'd have run me out.” > Sb

PERSONALLY, I know Costello omly for his membership in “Saloon Society.” He doesn’t work hard at it. He has dinner early—at the best table in the house—and gets out early, He's “an earlybedder.” He's “batching” now--Mrs. Costello being in the South. . He'll probably be getting some sun too, when the quiz is over, inasmuch as he is a golf bug. In fact, recently, when he'd just come back from Florida, I asked him if he had played any golf. “Sure,” he sald. “Golf’s my racket.”

Henry Morgan Hits Top in the Snerd Age

was howling in righteous indignation while two comely maidens harmonized. (you should excuse the expression) to “Tennessee Waltz” (you should excuse the perversion of the word waltz).

Bruiser, it might be said, won the popularity award over the Brooklyn Cossack, the speller-backwards, and the man who played music on the rubber glove by allowing air to escape. The applause was recorded seriously on a meter, and indicated, at least to me, that a great many people go along with Bruiser in his reaction to the current trend . toward the lugubrious in popular songs. : > > & MORGAN TREATS all this nonsense with the seriousness jt deserves, as his companions accord respect’ to the contestants who make asses of themselves for a small fee on other shows. He finds nothing. unusual in the fact that a dog makes up one-third of a girl trio; he sees no rea-

if the mood strikes him,

The watcher finds it easy to believe, too. Once you are crammed full of quizzes and contests, where people trade their dignity for a moment before the cameras and open their intelligence to insult, you have small trouble accepting the Mor: gan show as an index to the trade. I knew a reporter once who said he covered so many odd stories that when he was forced to visit an insane asylum he never knew the difference. That is where I stand on much TV fare.

THERE APPEARS to be a great deal of humor today in stripping people of ingrained decorum, a great deal of fun in making morons of ordinary nice people. The missed question gets the yuck; embarrassment wins applause. It. is the age of Mortimer Snerd. Mr. Morgan has hit a professional stride finally by sanctifying the foolish. That he has tongue tucked in cheek is not important. He has caricatured a caricature, no mean accomplish ment, and like Bruiser, the chihuahua, my im-

Britain Due To Warn Reds {On Yugoslavia
