Captain Kangaroo in 25th year
‘Dr.Cosby’joins prograi
TA
United Press International
NEW YORK — “Captain Kangar
oo” received a two-fold blessing this
week. He’s added educator Dr. Wil
liam Cosby to his children’s show
and won his boss’ assurance his CBS-
TV time slot is as inviolate as Mr.
Greenjeans’ green jeans.
The good Dr. Cosby — better
known to fans of Fat Albert and his
gang as comic Bill Cosby — joined
Bob Keeshan’s 25-year-old televi
sion classic Monday as the funniest
teacher ever to take the lectern be
fore 25 million children in the 3-to-7
age group.
Cosby has the credentials. The
“Dr.” title is no joke. He holds a
Ph.D. in education from the Univer
sity of Massachusetts and long has
said he’d rather teach than wring
laughter from an audience.
In a five-minute “Picturepages”
segment on “Captain Kangaroo,”
he’ll do both five days a week.
The segment is designed to prom
ote verbal and conceptual skills of
the pre-school through early grade-
school audience that traditionally fol
lows “Captain Kangaroo.”
Cosby will use the time to teach
such fundamentals as “behind” as
opposed to “in front of’ and “above”
as opposed to “below.”
Along with the show, viewers can
buy a “Picturepages” illustrated
booklet published by “Weekly Read
er” for $1 per six-week issue.
The hitch? It demands parent par
ticipation — and it’s not the first
effort Keeshan has made in that
direction.
“We experienced this once before
and it was a disaster,” he told repor
ters. “We had a terrible time. We
couldn’t handle the distribution. But
this time Xerox Corp. is doing it for
us and they know how. It’s geared to
an older person working with a child.
Otherwise, it just won’t work. ”
Getting children and parents
together, even beyond a basic educa
tion, is Keeshan’s primary concern.
“The program encourages parents
to spend time with their children,”
he said. “That’s the problem in the
nation today — children are a low
priority item. We may have de
veloped the only species on earth
that does not know how to raise its
young."
Rumors the network’s sm

CRUISING
The roadside tavern where the
only unruliness is “flatfootin’, clod-
hoppin’ and the regular of hillbilly
stomp” will be torn down some year
soon to make way for a four-lane
highway.
“I hate to think about it,” sighs the
pipe-smoking proprietor in bib over
alls who has been dispensing beer
between banjo tunes for the past 25
years. “I laid every block and drove
every nail in it.”
The Red Robin, says Charlie, is a
Mingo County landmark.
The wall behind the front room
bar is laden with memorabilia —
musical instruments, license plates,
old tools, lanterns, a picture of the
area’s most famous patriarch, “De
vil” Anse Hatfield.
In the big back room, red and yel
low booths surround a wooden dance
floor. Dark comers are stuffed with
&iber of
ut Geo

old Wurlitzers, and plastic
ques line the walls.
