TELEVISION IN REVIEW

By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD UPI — All right, everybody. Unpack the awards. Bring out the trophies. Fred Astaire turned up on NBCT. V Wednesday night in his first musical special in eight years, end there's no sense in waiting until- May to give him an Emmy. My gosh, what a marvelous chap is Fred Astaire. According to Webster’s Diction and himself — he is 68 years old. That means his next dancing special, at this rate, may come when he is about 75, and the chances are he will still be hoofing it up like a kid of 50. Naturally he’ll still be telling friends—as he did long before Wednesday’s special — that a fellow his age can’t dance forever. Wednesday’s show, with costar Barrie Chase simply beautiful and in excellent form, found Astaire doing some numbers of the past—but also bringing his consummate taste and artistry to the sounds of today. And the new pop sounds never made a finer impact— thanks in great part to musical director Neal Hefti. The various musicians contributing the past—and—present sounds included Simon and Garfunkel, Sergio Mendes and Brasil ’66. the Young-Holt Trio, the Gordian Knot and the Hefti Orchestra, and they were all splendid. There was also excellent choreography from Herb Ross. And Astaire was the coproducer with Gil Rodin. Robert Scheerer directed with such exceptional sensitivity for mood, color and tone that it was a purely beautiful hour to watch in addition to everything else.

Astaire has a simple formula for his show: talent, maturity — and hard work. No one works harder, or longer, or more intensely, at putting a program together. You have a sense of anticipation before he ever makes that gracious entrance— and he never, but never, lets you down. From his first, jaunty entry Wednesday to his finale—a hard-rock version of “Top Hat, White Tie and Tails” —the hour glided by, with humor, drama and simple fun all wrapped in dance, song and little dialogue. How nice It is to glow after a program is over, to feel comaraderie with genuineness in a performer, to know you have been in the presence of an eternal gentleman instead of an arrogant showbiz vase guy. How fine is Fred Astaire. He is a superb person, entrenched firmly in the American experience.

Two other important talents, John Secondari and Helen Jean Rogers, were also represented with an hour special Wednesday night—ABC-TV’s “Venice: City ir Danger,” another of the “Saga of Western Man” series. With the producers’ usual appreciation of the arts, the broadcast looked at beautiful Venice, past and present, and also focused on the city’s crisis — the threat of the seas around It. The hour was everything one has come to expect of this distinguished series, which at one time was the only respectable thing on ABC-TV, and for which the network should understand it is still greatly indebted to the producers

j Opening lead—ten. of hearts. ' Let’s suppose you’re playing rubber bridge and become declarer in a given hand at six hearts^ vulnerable. If you make the hand, you score 700 points for the rubber, 750 for the slam, and 180 for the tricks—a total of 1,630 points. Now let’s suppose—unhappy thought—that you go down one. In that case, you are minus 100 points. So the difference between making the slam and going down one is 1,780 point*. That’s a lot of points In bridge, oven If you’re playing for only ten pins a point.

Jftnr let’s also suppose you haro a chance to make an extra trick in the slam. If you make it, yon gain a cool 30 points. Ifot to be sneezed at, to be sure, but only a drop tn the wellknown bucket compared to the over-all etakea All of which la merely a prelode to the misfortune that be2eD South in. this deal. He got to six hearts, which was certainty a reasonable contract. West led a trump and South drew trumps In three rounds. Be neat cashed the A-K-Q of diamonds, discarding a spade, after which he stewed a while, not knowing which A-Q to finesse. He finally tried the spade finesse and lost two tricks to go down one. What declarer should have dona after drawing trumps, was lead the five of diamonds and follow low from dummy regardless of which diamond West played on the trick. True, declarer would thus deliberately lose a diamond trick where there was actually no diamond loser, but he could well afford to be generous with this 30-point trick. By conceding a diamond South would nail down the contract even if the suit proved to be divided 4-1. This would be a mighty insignificant premium to pay for insuring the slam. The most it could cost would be three hundred pins.
