Bonzai or Bonsai

Prof. Mike Endicott and his new neighbor, a Japanese instructor in Oriental flower arrangement, face the same problem—teen-age daughters who want more freedom — in the episode presented on "To Rome With Love;" when the series moves to a new day and time Wednesday, Jan. 13 (8:30-9) on the CBS Television Network. It's like a United Nations under one Italian roof when the Oriental and occidental cultures collide . Mike's daughter, Alison, wants her own apartment and Mr. Okada's daughter, Etsu, who feels as restricted as her father's 175-year-old bonsai plant, wants to adopt Alison's Western ways. Each father is concerned about his daughter's influence on the other. John Forsythe and Walter Brennan star in the series as Prof. Mike Endicott and Grandpa Andy Pruitt, respectively, with Joyce Menges, Susan Neher and Melanie Fullerton as Mike's daughters, Alison, Penny and Pokey. Peggy Mondo appears in a recurring role as Mama Vitale. Teru Shimada heads the guest cast as Mr. Okada, with Beulah Quo as his wife and Miko Mayama as their daughter Etsu. Forsythe's own daughter, Page, appears in a supporting role as Sandy Allen.
