MA was thinking to herself thoughtfull, and she said to

Pop, Well William, Chrissmas has come and gone.

3 weeks ago, to be exact, pop ' said, and ma said, Yes, X know,

and I still thjnk I was right in sticking to my resolution.

You sound as though you were talking about New Year's that's resolution time, pop said, and ma said, No, I meen Chrissmas, and I mean my resolution not to send greeting cards to the people I had alreddy sent presents to.

Oh, that, pop said, Yes, I agree with you, there's no sense in add­ing honey to mollasses, he said, and ma said, That's what I thought. And" besides, William, <?ur Chrissmas cards were quite expensive this year. Not that I would want to actually pinch pen­nies at the very season of the year when generosity is the pro­verbial passwerd; 1 meen it would not be very nice *o delibritly go out of our way to cut down on expenses at Chrissmas time, would it, William? she said.

I dont know, I never had that experience, pop said, and ma said, Anyway. William, when I say I was right in sticking to my reso­lution, I meen 1 was theoretically right, because now I'll have to write 8 letters that I wouldn't of had to write.

How come? pop said, and ma said, Because 8 peeple sent us greeting cards as well as pres^fltsh so naturelly I'll have to write and thank them and explain about my

resolution. You just said your­self. William, that we dont want peeple accusing us of pinching pennies at Chrlsmass, she said.

By RAY FINCH

AUNT JENNY, whom a zealous publicist calls the Schehera­

A Canadian version, Aunt Lucy, is almost as old as the original Jenny, and there's even a French-language series titled "Tante Lucie." .

Actress Agnes Young plays Jenny. When she was temporarily sidelined with a broken hip re­cently, Miss Young was flooded with get-well letters from every state and Canada.

«T'TS A MATTER of simple •*• arithmetic," Susan's father

leaned forward to knock the ashes from his pipe into the copper bowl on his desk, then smoothed his graying hair and looked at his youngest daughter over the top of his glasses. "Two and two make four. You can't get away from it. Nobody can.

"I can!" Susan's brown eyes snapped as she shook a rebellious red head. "I can get away from arithmetic any day in the week, even if I am a mathematician's daughter. You can't translate hu­man hearts into figures, you can't arts in

take hearts and add them up and label them. Just because Ted's background is rich and social, and mine is poor and academic."

"Now, come! Be fair!" Professor Ramsdale's face crinkled in mo­mentary humorous dismay. "Have I said those were the factors I was adding up? You've asked my ad­vice."

"I've asked your consent," Susan corrected miserably. "Oh, Daddy, can't you see we're in love? I know I thought I cared for David, but—" She jumped up and went to the window. "I wish now I hadn't asked you," she added

bitterly. "I wish I'd just eloped and been done with it. That's what Ted wanted. Hr said you'd be p r e j u d i c e d because he'd flunked out, even though it wasn't his fault."

THERE WAS NO humor, left in Alan Ramsdale's face as he pushed back his chair and went to put an arm around Susan's tense slenderness. "It's not a ques­tion of consent, Susan. All I'm asking you is to wait a bit. Give Ted a chance to readjust."

"But now is when he needs me!"

'!He needs to get right with himself. By himself." Susan's father's voice was both sad and stern. VYou say it wasn't his fault he flunked out. In a way, that's true. Life has never given • him any self-discipline. Divorced par­ents, schools, camps, a ridiculous allowance, coming into an enor­mous inheritance from his grand­father. Ted hasn't even tried to take those hurdles. I'm asking you to wait and see."

''Hi!" Ted waved from an ex­pensive sports model parked un­der a blossoming chestnut tree. "Any luck?" He leaned lazily over to open the door as Susan reached him. "No, no luck," he added, his weak, handsome face crinkling to a laugh at Susan's woebegone ex­pression, as she got in beside him.

"What did I tell you?" He took her hand and laid it against his cheek then kissed it. "Well, any­way, you've tried. Now you can relax. We'll just breeze off. Now. This minute. We'll spend tonight in Boston. Get there in lime to buy you everything you need."

"Ted! You're crazy!" Susan snatched her hand away.

Ted laughed and started the

By JACK O'BRIAN

NEW YORK, Jan. 17 (INS). — Red Buttons has bowed to

the inevitability of drooping ratings and bad reviews and will throw everything away hut his own central personality and try to bolster that, into a strongly defined "character" with the help of other secondary bu* important stars.

First move was to hire his latest in a string of writers, John Greene and Bill Davenport, who tickled TV funnybones formerly with, respectively,. "Ozzie and Harriet" and "Dear Phoebe."

• * *

Th» stars expected to disport in the shiny-new and Hopeful format starting thti Friday are Phyllis Kirk, one of Holly­wood's sprightliest junior be*u-• ies, who will play Red's TV "wife"; Paul Lynde, of the supper clubs and Martha Rave shows; and probably Bobby Sherwood, as an "aasy-goinq TV.director." Th* latter m*an« th« "format" will be a show-within-a-show. Lots of luck.

YOU COULD SEE BOTH the moon and the monev over Miami Beach Sunday night when the Comedy Hour focused its cash register on the fantastic expanse of neat hut gaudy architecture christened the Fontainebleau.

The hour had a east of stars which must have made any TV host ereen with envy but some­how the si™ and impact of the resort itself - - a mammoth assemhlv line for relaxation in which the relaxation seemed to involve auJte a lot of work — s?emed simply to clobber the starfire of the celebrated per­formers.

The Show w»s staged on tht terraces surrounding the water-ski-sized pool.

Gordon, Patti Page, Jack Carter, the Vagabonds, who disported among the assorted sights and sounds inside and Outside this frosted frantic comoetition for the palaee Of Versailles, may not have realized it, but they simply were playing straight to a modern spun-candy monument. T h e y weren't being exDosed at their Individual best. Only thing the p.'.iee really did right by were those water skiers.

WHILE YOU SHOP, I'll do license chasing." He shot through a traffic light into the highway. "Am I glad to shake the dust of that New England college town off my feet! Off our feet! Two feet and two feet makes four feet, all cleared of academic dust."

"Don't! Ted, stop! You've got to stop. Oh, why did you have to say that!"

Ted took a quick look at the tears suddenly pouring down Su-

f an's cheeks. He heaved an exas-erated sigh, slowed down and

pulled over to the side of the road. "Okay, We'll talk it out. Only, I'd rather kiss it ou t /

"I have to talk," Susan drew away from his arms. "And you have to listen."

"Fire away and get it off your chest. What did he say? That the daughter of one of the country's leading mathematicians couldn't marry a man who flunked out?"

"He said two and two make four," Susan said miserably, her chin quivering. "Just what you said. It was exactly like Daddy calling to me when you said that."

"I don't get you—two and two? Oh, our four feet shaking off aca­demic dust? Rather good, what?" Ted threw back his head and laughed with the abandon Susan had loved so in this two months of the whirlwind rush he had given her, a rush now sweeping her over a precipice that was terrifying. She put her hands over her face.

"NOW, LOOK, DARLING. I know it's hard for you," Ted's arms were around her again. "I'm sure your father pulled out all the stops. About your being his only unmarried daughter left, the prop

of his old age, and so on. All he asks, if you must get married, is to see you the wife of that teach­er's pet of an instructor, and liv­ing next door for the rest of his life. But what is there in that for you? The world is our oyster, my beautiful redhead. We can travel, do anything we like. Thank God I did flunk out. I might have been fool enough to mess through an­other year at that dump."

Susan sat very still, then she heard herself saying something0

utterly surprising, "David Perkins isn't any teach­

er's pet," she said. Ted jerked back and stared at

her. "And Daddy didn't pull out any

stops," Susan went on. "He just said—" , o

"I know," Ted interrupted sav­agely. "Two and two make four. He added up all my shortcomings and—"

"And they made four," Susan said unhappily. ' "Simple arith­metic. You can't get away from it."

Before Ted realized what she was doing, she opened the door, jumped out and started walking toward town. For an incredulous, furious moment Ted looked back, watching her. Then, he stepped on the gas, and roared ahead down the highway.
