By VERNON SCOTT i HOLLYWOOD UPI—Remem-1 ber Ben Alexander, the fat cop; who backed up Jack Webb ini the old “Dragnet” series ? Well, he’s coming back to television: in the faU still playing a fat cop. As officer Frank Smith, Alexander was a sidekick detective to sergeant Friday. This time around, he’ll be a sergeant himself, sitting behind a desk in “The Felony Squad” for ABC-TV, co-starring with Howard Duff and newcomer Dennis Cole.
Curiously, Alexander hasn't worked as an actor since “Dragnet” folded almost 10 years ago. But a gUmpse at his rotund physique unmistakably indicates he hasn’t been starving to death. He is the owner of two automobile agencies in southern California and four mortuaries in the San Francisco area. “I haven’t worked at acting because I just didn’t have the time and I wasn’t particularly interested in it,” Alexander said during a lunch break on the new series.

which leaves my working hours open.” According to Alexander, the show will bear no resemblance to “Dragnet.” There will be more action, with each episode opening with a crime being committed. Ben helped design the uniforms and badges for the series and some 15 of his guns are being used for props. Additionally he acts as liaison with the police department, hiring officers from time to time to add authenticity to the stories. The show, however, is not set in Los Angeles.
“It could be any place,” Alexander grinned, “even Gotham City. But, thankfully, our police department doesn’t have to put up with Batman.”
