SO. The Long Night The day following the 13th of January was one when men, women and children, who seldom show the same reverence toward their families, took time out from busy lives to pay their respects to a gigantic personality-for the last time. Jimmy O 'Flynn was the personifica tion of expressive talent. His impact, whether on stage. radio or television, was constantly of the highest tradition. One of his favor­ ite songs, "Make Someone Happy Today,'' written expressly for him by a local citizen, was his credo. In turn, he gave his all to charity for medical campaigns and benefits of every conceivable kind. But, ironically, they could never find a cure for his own fatal ailment. He was indeed a star. He could ad-lib on par with the finest. He sang and sold a song like Harry Richman, delivered ga gs with the surety of a Milton Berle and absorbed the lessons of the business with the maturity of an eager twenty-year-old. He always held up his end of the show, no matter what preceded him, and more important, gave his all, his ever changing health notwithstanding. It's peculiar writing about Jimmy O'Flynn in the past tense. He always looked forward to full days ahead. Jim was seven-yet in those few years he lived the full lives of two youngsters. He will be remembered by thousands, and Radio City's million dolla r studios will be astonishingly empty without his talents and personality-the likes of which Rochester will not see again for a lifetime.

Surf riding - another favorite pastime - was abetted by expert instruction from the island natives who knew the sea so well. Just one among many other accomplish­ ments, Ann learned to play the popular island sport, Jailai. It was only natural that "Clee" should become an expert swimmer, competent equestrienne and an able flyer.

Color TV will arrive after extensive four-month field tests of the system recently developed through the pooled research of major set manufacturers; after the FCC studies and ap- proves the new method ; and after the many more months it will take to organize factory production of sets and to in- stall color telecasting equipment. TED MACK AND THE ORIGINAL AMATEUR HOUR RETURN to your TV screen April 25 to be seen each Saturday from 8:30 - 9 p.m. It will replace the second half of THE ALL-STAR REVUE, which goes off.

Since 1950, a 3D TV system, developed in coop- eration with DuMont, has been in daily use at the AEC's Argonne National Laboratories near Chicago. It allows technicians to watch atomic doings closely without danger from radiation. TV WRESTLERS ARE PACKING THEM IN AT PHILADELPHIA'S MOVIE houses where they are billed as added stage attractions with simulated TV bouts. SET-MAKERS PREDICT that by the end of the year 24-inch sets will constitute 25% of production.
