Groucho Marx Says Zany Trio
Won’t Team Up For TV Series
By ERSKINE JOHNSON
NEA Staff Correspondent I
HOLLYWOOD — (NEA)-—Hol
lywood on TV: Groucho Marx
tells me that offers have been
pouring in, but he won't be team=
ing up with madcap brothers Har
po and Chico for a TV comedy
series designed to revive the zany
Marx antics.
The mad-eyed, sharp tongued
Groucho will roll along with “You
Bet Your Life” and an occasional
movie role because “this gives me
all the work that I want to do.” l
“We made 15 movies together
and that's enough,” Groucho says. '
“You can only get increasingly
stale. We realized that and struck
out for ourselves. Maybe I should
say we struck out.”
Charges of hacking contestantsi
to little pieces on his NBC-TV |
quiz show sends the Marx eye
brows higher than they went when
a shapely blonde passed in his
days as a stage wolf.
Protested Groucho: l
“I don’t insult people. I just get ;
off a few truths. Hardly anybody l
in radio or TV speaks the truth.
Fred Allen in one of the few who !
does.” {

No wonder Hollywood’s gulping.
More people see Dean Martin and |
Jerry Lewis for free on their TV |
shows than people who pay to see |
their movies.
Their average TV audience is
28,960,000 people. The average
movie plays to round 20,000,000.
The same goes so the Lucille
Ball-Desi Arnaz show, “I Love
Lucy.” Lucille states:
“More people see my TV show
every week than saw me in a
movie in two years. What's more,
I can play a different role every
week and I have control over the 1
roles I play.” |

Line Are Drawn
Battle lines were drawn for the
fight over electoral votes almost
as soon as the adjourned 30-day
legislative session got underway
yesterday
Straight from the Governor’s
hands came a previously un-an
nounced bill to “clarify” the state’s
election laws. At almost the same
time, Sen. Osgood Williams of
Crawfordville, a minority leader,
dropped in a bill to require Geor
gia Democrats to hold a preferen
tial Presidential primary.
- Talmadge’s bill immediately
‘stirred indignant reaction. “An
outrage,” said Rep. John Greer of
Lakeland, a House minority lead
er. “Totalitarian,” was Williams’
term for it.
The Governor’s bill would pro
hibit the name of any candidate
for President or Vice-President
from appearing on the general
election ballot. It gives State Ex
ecutive Committees of organized
political parties the power to
nominate Presidential electors. Al
so, the Governor, Comptroller
General and Attorney General are
made an election board with full
and final authority over any con
troversies.
Claimed Invalid
Williams, readying an opposi
tion measure, charged the Tal
madge bill is invalid because it
attempts to repeal present laws by
implication. He also said that by
the time a court decision on its
legality could be obtained *the
election would be over and they
would have done what they want-
