Show By INEZ GERHARD RONALD and Benita Colman had no idea, when they embarked on "The Halls of Ivy" series last January, Janu-ary, that they were launching a show that would become so popular so soon. "Really adult entertainment" entertain-ment" is the description given by its many devoted listeners. Not only the show, but its theme song, immediately became popular; in fact, so many people wanted a recording re-cording of the song that a record has been made by the group that sings it on the NBC Wednesday night broadcasts. College presidents presi-dents and faculty members have praised the series; students lament the impossibility of finding a college president like Colman. Joe Wilman, whose records in American Bowling Congress competition compe-tition stamp him as one of the greatest bowlers of the decade, has signed to-star in "King of the Tenpins", Ten-pins", of Columbia's "World of Sports" short subjects series. U-I's Universal City covered a total of 256 acres before the recent purchase of a 140-acre tract adjoining adjoin-ing the studio in the San Fernando Valley; makes it the largest self-contained self-contained film plant in the world. |
