Highlights Red Goes On And On Bv HOWARD PEARSON Deseret News Television Editor Red Skelton will start his 19th year in tele vision, when he resumes his series Sept. 23 on CBS-THe says he has no thoughts of retiring; he doesn't even want to slow down. During the hiatus (holiday from making his television show) he appeared at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. His own musical compositions provided the background. It's my music you hear on my TV show," he says. Ive written 5,000 songs. I pick out the notes on the piano and record them on a tape recorder. Later, they are written down Nearly 10,000 high school and college bands play the marching tunes w'hich Red has composed, according to his wife, Georgia. He also has written volumes of short stories. I write for my own pleasure, he says. As I drive to Los Angeles each week (from his Palm Springs home) I put a tape recorder on the seat of the car and dictate into it. By the time I hit the L.A. city limits I have a story finished." His writing even extends to a daily love letter to his wife, which shows the deeply sensitive and sentimental nature of this man. I tell Georgia whats on my mind and how I feel, he says of these daily letters. It something has irritated me, I tell her. If something has pleased me, I tell her about that, too. Mostly, I just want to share my inner thoughts and tell her how much I care for her. H is sentiment has extended to the television on a few occasions. , show Last year, when he recited his interpretation of the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, some critics branded the act as corn.

The network has sent out 350,000 copies of the pledge and thousands of copies of the Columbia record on which the recitation was recorded have been sold. He didnt have any formal schoolSkelton is ing beyond the usual, but he is an omnivorous reader. He tells interviewers; I was just a kid, just beginning in show business and I realized I had to develop a good memory. This was in the days when drugstore windows were fiLed with all sorts of items. I wruld walk from the hotel where I lived, to the drugstore, study the window display, walk back to my room and write down all the things I saw and where they were located. Then I would reurn to the drugstore and check the list. t. I keep in memory shape by reading books. I have thousands of them al home. Right now, though, he is guarding his privacy and spite his outward appearances on his television shows, he admits to being a calm, shy man who seeks his own company and that of his wife and close friends when his work is done.

They also have other staff members of the late Thats Life and Smothers Brothers shows with them for Music Scene. We saw a pilot (sample) of Music Scene at ABC last week. It consisted cl the best portions of Smothers Brothers shows they have produced plus several new segments. And, boy, is it wild? Along with a couple of other television editors, we w'ere rolling on the floor laughing at some segments.

That Was the Week That Was, the old weekly satire series that created considerable controversy. Tliis show was offered to every network," Fritz explained. Its been batting around for 14 months. We shot a new format and ABC liked it. So did The Beatles, who tppear in the first episode. As you can see, we have no spJ host. We have four boys and 2 girls, who introduce ihe numbers in a distinctive way." (He was right there. One segment had a coup.e of well-- , known singers sitting in a talent agency waiting room with a large group of teens. One person starts tapping on a brief case he is carrying. The other taps with his feet and soon you have a snappy musical number.) The producers are tied up with Billboard, whose rating charts largely will determine the musical numbers. However, the selections will include standard, pops and way-ou- t numbers by people who are well known by all age groups, such as Kate Smith and Johnny Cash; those currently popular, such as Blood, Sweat and Tears, and those on the way up. 2 JACK PARR and HIS LIONS (c) Emmy-nominate- d Filmed in Africa Av.na.rs (c, rerun, hour NET Journal (rerun), "A Conerth.n With Earl Warren." 4 7 06n LDS 11 - 9:30 Tempi. tapme ol mornina G round bre.kma, event. 10:00 2 TV2 NEWS AT 10 ir Mitchell, Kent Eubank, Marcroft (c) 4 S 7 Perry Mason (hour).

Asked about censorship on the political satire segments, he said: We have been assured by ABC that there will be no censorship, but we seem to be in complete agreement on what to do.
