I from an old hand at viewing and participating in TV new a panel performances—the Great TV De-

bate between the rriwtlinlliil candidates is unfair. It is unfair to the newsmen who ask the questions. It is unfair to the viewers who seek enlightenment. It is unfair because the ground rules are such that a candidate may—and sometimes does —duck a tough question If he is so minded. Here’s how: There are two candidates fielding questions, four panelists pitching. The rules provide that the panelists shall ask questions each in his turn at intervals of 10 to 15 minutes. Assume that panelist A asks a candidate a penetrating, precise and very tough question. The candidate may choose to evade the question by talking around it. His answea—will stick to the subject raided qut will avoid a precise yes, no or rn ay be answer to the precise question asked. Panelist A is helpless. He has asked his question and he may not even complain that toe answer is' not responsive to toe question asked. Report on Performance UPl’s Alvin Spivak, a good man with words, was a panelist on toe second of the Great Debates. Here’s an excerpt from his report on the performance: “Another difficulty (there were several) under the format was that a panelist was allowed one question, in turn, and no ooportunity even to interrupt and say, ‘Just a moment, senator (or Mr. Vice President) you’re not answering toe question I asked.’ “The hope here, of course, is that the listening public will be aware of who’s dodging what. “But there is a feeling of helplessness, or haplessness, in a panel whose members can ask one question and then must sit silent for some minutes before getting in another query. “Thirteen questions in an hour isn’t very many. Only one panelist got in four questios. The others each asked three. Two panelists, myself and another, each asked Vice President Nixon two questions and Senator Kennedy one. Another panelist asked Kennedy two questions and Nixon one. The fourth panelist asked four questions, two to each candidate. This may have been an improvement on the first Great Debate when 10 questions were asked in 32 minutes, the questions coming between the candidates’ opening and closing statements. There were no such statements on the second occasion.’’ It isn’t necessary to Wow out the other person’s light hi order to let your own shine.
