Not So Funny CUMAEERSDALE, Eng land UPI—"It was all a joke,” Jeff Ward explained today. But nobody else seemed to think so. What happened, Ward related, was that fellow office worker Jean Cameron walked by his desk, he gave her a playful pinch, she turned around, kicked him and knocked off his glasses, so he put her across his knee and spanked her. Ward was fired and Miss Cameron issued a blushing "no comment.”
TV In Review NEW YORK UPI — One of the most refreshing things about Captain Kangaroo—ask your child who he is if you don’t know—is that his program is assembled without the aid of educators, psychologists or even a computer. The credit for what is among the most successful formulas for a children’s program anywhere in the world goes to the parents among 1 the original staff who helped Bob Keeshan create the Captain Kangaroo charter 11 years ago, and their offspring. The parents asked their kids questions about what they would like to see and from the consensus emerged the daily CBS-TV program which gently helps educate the five to eight year old group in the process of entertaining them. It is a surprisingly complex job has a permanent staff of about 65 people. Keeshan, himself, a pipe-smooking thoughtful fellow, when he is not in the wig and costume of his role, was studying a script based on chemistry when we spoke in his office. The Captain Kangroo character reflects years as Clarabelle the Clown and Corney the Clown on television before CBS asked him to develop a program for them in 1955. "We were looking for something alliterative,’’ he said, recalling how the program got its name, "and it ties in with the large pouchlike pockets I have in my costume.’’ These days when a board of scientists is practically mandatory for any show which purports to educate, Keeshan goes
•long drawing v hug* MgmMrt of the available audience with programs largely the result of sheer common sense. "The shame of American television is that it’s one thing or the other,” he said, “its educational or its entertainment. It’s almost never a combination of both. But to combine the two is the aim of Captain Kangaroo and has been from the start. "We’re fairly intuitive now. We’ve got no experts on child behavior on the staff. Our people have their own group of youngsters and we know what this age group can assimilate. This script on chemistry may seem a bit technical to you as you read it but its only a guideline for me. "We think of my character as a funnel and I take the technical bits and funnel them to the children so they will understand them.” Any child watching the chemistry program, scheduled for Aug. 31st, will learn something about silver, carbon, tungsten and helium—through some amusing byplay with a silver spoon, a pencil, a light bulb and a helium balloon. In a screening room Keeshan ran a film he took in Holland. Portions of it will be broadcast for two weeks starting Sept. 30. It looks like a travelogue but the narration is shrewdly baited with easy facts.
