TELEVISION IN REVIEW

into a series of relatively minor sequences that more or less just

petered out after a while.

There were numerous scenes in the early going that won a viewer’s admiration. The confrontation of Luther as a young monk—driven, full of self-doubt, tortured by a sense of guilt and plain physical problems—and of his father, crude, vulgar, not understanding his son or why he was choosing this way of life,

was wholly gripping.

“Luther” won both the New York Drama Critics award and the Antoinette Perry (Tony) award as the best play of 1963. But television chopped it down to size. It fit the time slot, and that's all that counts, right?

HOLLYWOOD UPI—ABC-TV Monday night presented a sharply truncated, 90-minute adaptation of John Osborne’s superb play, “Luther,” and the slashing of the length was the unkindest cut of all. The epic drama of the 16th Century Catholic monk who started the Reformation was hardly epic any more after the cutting had been done. It was more of a mini-epic, with the shortened form requiring a more pronounced episodic result, and all the shortcomings that accompany this type of struc-

ture.

It was a pity, too, for even in its truncated form the play often blazed with the brilliance of Osborne’s words and the excellence of an outstanding cast that deserved more time to spread its abilities. Robert Shaw starred in the title role, Robert Merely appeared briefly as Pope Leo X, and the supporting players included Max Adrian, Ronald Fraser, Kenneth J. Warren, Bernard Kay and Frank Middlemas — all expert. In fact, for the first hour or so, it seemed the television version might even gain a triumph of a sort over the truncation, as there was a series of powerful verbal confrontations, with only a few routine transitional

scenes interrupting.

For the last third or so of the adaptation, however — after Luther finally broke from the

church—the play dwindled down Saturday night movies.

TV Notes

ABC will air a one-hour program entitled “The Actor” or March 19 with British star Alec Guinness as on-and-off-camera narrator. The show will deal with the London threaten, and many British players will participate in this examination of today’s entertainment and the traditions of the British stage.

Opening laad — queen of

tearta.

Here is still another deal that dhows how Important it is for declarer to plan the play of the hand as a whole. West leads the queen of hearts, East winning with the ace and returning the eight. What is South’s best method of

pi&y?

The first thing to consider is whether to duck the eight or go up with the king, but this question can hardly be answered without looking well beyond what to do at trick two. Before making a decision, South counts his sure winners. He starts out with eight tricks

— s spade, a heart, four dia- ' moods and two dubs. He next looks for ways and means of obtaining a ninth trick. Two possibilities stand out. One is to take a spade finess, hoping East was dealt the king. If the finesse succeeds, declarer has ten tricks; if it fails and West started with five hearts, South goes down one. The other possibility consists of relying on a club finesse. This method is bound to produce a ninth trick if declarer takes the finesse the right way, but, since South has no sure way of locating the queen, he may run Into a peck of trouble if he misgauges the finesse. However, there is a third possibility, much less evident but one that practically guarantees the contract. It avoids either finesse and at the same time forces the defense to yield a ninth brick. Declarer wins the heart return at trick two, cashes the A-J and another diamond, and exits with the nine of hearts. West cashes his hearts, South discarding a diamond and a spade as dummy discards a club and a

spade.

West, on lead, must return a spade or a club, either of which presents South with his ninth trick. Declarer incurs no risk with, this method of play. He forces the opponents to do his work for him.

Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK UPI — The Wiesenberger Investment Report comments that “of the three sets of factors that determine the level and cause the changes in stock prices—monetary, economic and psychological—only the last named continues favorable. Should anything occur to dampen confidence, the effect on the market could be quick and perhaps drastic.” As the service views it, “with the many opposing forces and cross-currents in the economy and surrounding the market, active, wide-swinging markets are likely to continue indefinitely offering opportunities for profit as well as risks of loss.”

Oppenheimer, N e w b o r g A Neu notes the stock market suffered “a very serious decline” last week. Prior to seizure of the USS Pueblo by North Korea the market already had started on its downward path “due to the disappointing State of the Union message.” The ■ lows of December were “easily pierced,” says the firm, and “should the November lows be violated, a major bear market

in our opinion would be established.”

E. F. Hutton A Co. thinks “near term market moves are likely to be closely attuned to the various news releases.” The fact that the rails have refused to “penetrate their December lows . . . would seem to suggest the possibility of an industrial snapback here,” the firm feels. Another test of the past week’s lows or the November lows just below them cannot be ruled out later on the company says. “Even if the Korean crisis passes, the market still has a myriad of other domestic and international problems, now temporarily pushed into the background, to contend with.”
