Sponsor Timex rates loud applause for presenting "A Family Thing" the other television night. Starring the Cowsill family, a talented group, especially nine-year-old Susan, who did the Old Soft Shoe with Buddy Ebsen. A complete delight from start to finish and all too short. The boys write songs and play instruments. They all looked like they bathe daily and do need haircuts. Mama Cowsill is a pretty person and such legs! . . . The family is from Newport, R.I and was introduced to the nation on the Ed Sullivan show last year. A world tour followed . . . A great ad for showbiz, teevee and the US.
