Sen. Mansfield Expresses Regret WASHINGTON UPI—Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield expressed regret Saturday at the failure of State Department efforts to win French backing for the U.S. proposals to end the Viet Nam war. But he told UPI he was “delighted the effort was made,” even though it was ignored by French President Charles de Gaulle at his recent meeting with North Vietnamese representatives in Cambodia. The State Department sent a letter outlining the U.S. proposals to French officials prior to De Gaulle’s departure. It reportedly specified that America would be willing to withdraw its Viet Nam forces by stages or all at once — but only if the other side did likewise and under adequate verification. De Gaulle never mentioned the U.S. communication, and instead called for a “fixed” timetable of American troop with-

drawal.

The State department communication was a so-far unreleased letter from Secretary of State Rusk to French Foreign

WORE Installs New Equipment DePauw radio station WGRE will close operations for three days this week to permit installation of new equipment. What was expected to be a simple “plug-in” of two new Magnecorder tape recording machines and a new Soundmaster tape cartridge machine developed complications in electrical wiring. A trio of expert engineers and electricians — Dave Sublet!, Ted Glidewell, and Bob Reeves — are rebuilding the electrical system to accommodate the new equipment. This work necessitates closing of station operation for the next three days, following an initial broadcast last Sunday and the Monday Morning Show with Garry

Frazier.

The new sound of WGRE will feature the best in high fidelity machines combined with modern automatic cartridge control. Listeners are invited to inspect this new equipment as soon as installation is complete. The staff also invites listeners to request the WGRE program listing Kaleidoscope mailed without charge to the WGRE

Paper Finally Goes To Press NEW YORK UPI — The World Journal Tribune finally goes to press today, its inaugural editions delayed 140 days by the longest labor shutdown in American newspaper history. Mayor John V. Lindsay presses a button to start an anticipated press run of nearly 1 million copies of the new newspaper, born of the merger of the World Telegram and Sun, the Journal-American and the Herald Tribune. An 80-page edition was planned. The merged newspaper originally was to publish its first edition April 25 but contract disputes with the American Newspaper Guild and nine craft unions went nearly four and a half months before settlements were reached. 'Die new newspaper debuts with a payroll of about 3,000 fewer names than those of its three predecessors. And its planned morning edition, the Herald Tribune, folded a month ago because of economic trouble compounded by the shutdown. The final obstacle to publication of the World Journal Tribune was lifted Sunday when 1,100 members of the stereo typers union ratified a new con-

tract.

& smile that deepened the lines in his face. “We’re just looking for that 33% per cent of the * audience which will mean we'll f|§

be around for & while.” The ruggedly-visaged actor, a

veteran with three decades of performing in TV, radio, motion pictures and the theater behind him, was talking about Felony Squad, a new series which will debut on the ABC-TV network on Sept. 12. He will play detective Sam Stone, & tough cop.

*T THINK we've got a good nhow or I wouldn’t be here promoting it,” added Duff as he sat comfortably relaxed in a midtown New York office recently. “Our show is not a gimmicky one—no super-weapons. It’s realistic adventure-drama. The audience will know the crime right from the top and will watch the cops go through the process of nailing the criminals. In short, not a who-done-it, but a get-off-your-rear and go get,

’em.

“At least half of every show will be shot in the streets away from the studio,” he continued. “It’s another blow for the realism we’re trying to achieve. We’ve got seven shows wrapped up already and we really get around with them. I hate to admit it, but I’ve seen more of Los Angeles since we’ve been filming than I had in all the years I’ve lived there.” • • * HIS appearance in Felony Squad will mark Duff’s third TV series. He co-starred with his wife, Ida Lupino, in Mr. Adams and Eve in 1958-59, and also played the lead role in Dante, a series that failed in 1962. *T was knocked out of the box then by Andy Griffith,” said Duff matter of facUy. “He will be opposite again this season. “But the thing to remember is that Andy is some five years older now, and, on TV, that’s a long time, so I have high hopes.” Also co-starred in the new series will be Ben Alexander,

of Dragnet fame, and Dennis Cole, a handsome, relative newcomer to TV. “I’ve known Ben for years,” said Duff, “but never worked with him before. Ben will play police Sgt. Dan Briggs in the series; Dennis will play his son. The conflict arises because Briggs goes by the book and I don’t. Dennis, who portrays my partner, is caught in the middle. “I figure I can’t go wrong doing a cop named Sam,” smiled Duff, who played Sam Spade, the famed private eye of book, radio and screen, a number of years back. “I hope the new Sam does as well as the old. That radio show ran for five years from 1947 through

1951.’’

Before that, Duff, who was bom in Bremerton, Wash., attended schools in Seattle and was a member of the Seattle Repertory Playhouse from 1934 to 1938. After moving to San Francisco he did various announcing chores and played the lead in a radio serial titled Phantom Pilot. Later, in Los Angeles, he continued his ca-

reer as a radio actor until he entered the Army as an Infantryman in 1941. Transferred to the Armed Forces Radio Service, he served as a correspondent in the western Pacific until his discharge. While playing Sam Spade on radio, Duff also began to appear in motion pictures. In 1951, he married actress Ida Lupino. They have one child, Bridget, who is now 14 years of age. Speaking of his wife, who has attained a fine reputation a director along with her distinguished acting career, Duff said that he hoped she would direct some of the Felony Squad episodes. “If I’m working light in the series—with Dennis or Ben carrying a particular segment—I may get a chance to do some directing, too,” he added. Unlike his previous two series, Duff does not have a percentage in Felony Squad. “I’m just acting, getting a salary, and hoping it will be a hit,” ho concluded. “That’s the big thought on my mind at the moment.”

Ky Sees End Of Red Threat SAIGON UPI—Prime Minister Nguyen Cao Ky declared today the smashing success of South Viet Nam’s national elections “spells the beginning of the end” for the Communist threat to this war-ravaged country. Ky said in a victory statement the entire world—and particularly the communist bloc— must recognize that the massive turnout at the polls Sunday was solid evidence South Viet Nam’s people were determined to fight for their freedom. The government claimed a smashing political victory over the Viet Cong and took a major

step toward a return to civilian rule with the balloting. Despite terror attacks and death threats to both voters and candidates 80.8 per cent of the eligible voters turned out to name a 117-member constituent assembly. Final but unofficial figures announced by the government showed 4,274,812 of the country’s 5,289,752 registered voters, showed up at heavily-guarded polling places from the jungled

mountains to the rice-rich Mekong Delta marshlands. Ky issued his statement at the Dien Hong Palace on the Saigon waterfront. He said the Communists had failed to sabotage the elections. “Never before have they tried so hard, but never before have they failed so miserably," the prime minister and erstwhile air vice marshal said. "This certainly spells the beginning of the end for them.”
