TELEVISION IN REVIEW

By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD UPI — The remarkable strength of special television programming against regular series is evident in the latest national ratings. The rankings for the two weeks ending Dec. 17 indicate that no less than 13 special broadcasts placed among the top 30 shows. These include two movies, which are, after all, quite different from regular series. Even old specials did very well in the competition with the usual weekly fare. A rerun of the Christmas cartoon using the characters of the “Peanuts” comic strip was far and away the No. 1 show. Right behind it, in the second position, was a rerun of another children’s cartoon, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” And yet another animated program for youngsters, an hour on NBCTV, placed ninth even though it was a repeat. The third-rated show was also a special, an Andy Williams hour. And Bob Hope, in the same program category, finished eighth. CBS-TV's most recent National Geographic special, “Winged World,” about birds, had come in a powerful 10th in the weekly ratings. And it held up well in the two-week rankings too, placing 15th, in a tie with a situation comedy.

Nancy Sinatra’s recent hour also did extremely well in the two-week ratings, coming in 19th. And right behind her was the NBC-TV special that featured the Radio City Music Hall at Christmas time. The two movies were next. And In the 24th position was the hilarious hour entitled “Jack Parr and a Funny Thing Happened Everywhere.” A CBS-TV broadcast about the White House wedding of Lynda Bird Johnson placed 24th, in a tie with several other programs. And the two-hour “CBS Playhouse’’ drama, “Dear Friends,” was 30th. Only one new regular series finished in the top 30—CBS-TV’s children’s show about a boy and his bear, “Gentle Ben.” It came in 26th, also in a tie. In addition, ABC-TV’s troubled position in the ratings race was pointed up by the fact that the network placed only two shows in the top 30: Lawrence Welk and “Bewitched.” Welk came in 23rd and “Bewitched” 26th. The top 10 regular series were “Bonanza,” the Red Skelton Hour, the Ed Sullivan Show, Dean Martin’s variety program, “Lassie,” "Lucy,” the Andy Griffith situation comedy, “Gunsmoke,” “Gomer Pyle” and “Family Affair.”

The bidding: South West North East 14 Pass 2 4 Pass 4 4 Pass 6 4 Opening lead—king of hearts. A declarer is not expected to play every hand as though the defenders’ cards are exposed, but, In spite of this, he should rarely fail to get the most out of a hand. The nature of the game is euch that sound reasoning is usually well rewarded. If declarer finds after a hand is over that he went down in a contract he could have made, he should make it a practice to review his plays to see whether or not he actually did something wrong. Take this case where South failed in a slam after winning the heart lead with the ace,

drawing two rounds of trumps, and finessing the jack of diamonds. East won with the singleton king and returned a heart to put a quick end to the

proceedings.

It may seem double-dummy-ish and unfair to condemn declarer for having failed to nab the king of diamonds and make seven, but, just the same, South should have made all the tricks. As soon as dummy comes down declarer can see that a successful finesse in either diamonds or clubs will permit him to discard the heart loser and

make the slam.

Selecting one finesse over the other is not just & matter of luck, even though there is theoretically a 50-50 chance of West’s having a particular king. The decL..ng factor is that it is better to play for the club finesse because it can be preceded by the play of the ace of diamonds, which has a reasonable chance of catching the singleton kind in either opponent’*

hand.

This possibility cannot be ignored because, mathematically, the singleton king occurs in one deal out of eight when four cards of a suit are missing. Of course, declarer is lucky to find the singleton king in the East hand, but it is the kind of luck you are likely to find associated with most percentage

plays.
