TELEVISION IN REVIEW

By RICK DU BROW HOLLYWOOD UPI—A Joint venture of American and Czechoslovakian television resulted in a charming little east-west love story Sunday afternoon on NBCTV. The delicate, bittersweet tale, “Passport to Prague,” was part of the "NBC Experiment in Television” series, and concerned a married American woman

conceptions the people of East and West have of each other. But fortunately, "Passport to Prague,’ despite its occasionally journalism-oriented words, focused mainly on the human story. And in so doing, it seemed to capture more of the genuine flavor of Prague than a sophisticated travelogue might. One sensed attitudes rather than postcard views.

who falls in love while visiting the Czechoslovakian city aJone. Once again, "NBC Experiment in Television” proved itself vastly superior to most of the network prime time shows, and made the viewer regret that it was buried in video’s Sunday afternoon ghetto of miniscule audiences. What a pity: so much effort, and such a little payoff. As a cynic puts it, this is television’s conscience-stricken programming. The real experiment of "Passport to Prague,” of course, was not the story itself—which has been done In many forms before —but the cooperation between American and Iron Curtain television on a fictional tale. Although the relatively plush life enjoyed by the Czech leading man made one wonder about the accuracy of “realism,” there were also frank, critical appraisals of the general quality of day-to-day living that had the ring of truth. This added dimension given to the entertainment-documentary form provided an excellent backdrop for dealing with some pre-

In the story, the American woman (Hildy Brooks), an interior decorator from San Francisco, decides to go to Prague on a glass-buying mission while her doctor-husband is in Africa. In Prague, she stays with an old college roommate, the wife of the French attache. But at a glass factory, she meets a talented designer who works there, and after several amusing mishaps, they are drawn to each other even though neither speaks the other’s language. The designer (Fero Velecky), however, has a charming young daughter (Magda Kriskova), who speaks English, and acts as interpreter, with a maturity of understanding that belies her age. In the end, the woman, desperately in love, decides to end the fling before it leads to danger, and returns to her husband. The attractive cast was entirely believable. The story was written by Manya Starr and Victor Vicas, and Vicas was also the producer and director. The sensitive camera work was by Vladimir Novotny.

Opening lead—jack of dube. The recent death of Ivan Erdos brings to mind a hand he played in the match between Great Britain and the Uhited States in 1966. The British North-South pair at the first table arrived at six hearts with North as declarer and easily made the slam when the American East chose a diamond as his opening lead. The extra diamond trick proved very

helpful.

But at the second table, Erdos, playing with Kelsey Petterso n, became declarer with the South hand on the bidding

shown. West led a club and Erdos had to play exceptionally well to make the slam. He won the club with the king, drew trumps, and now had to avoid losing two spade tricks. In an effort to learn more about the hand, Erdos cashed the ace of dubs and ruffed a club on which East showed out When Erdos then led a low spade from dummy and won it with the queen, he could have attempted a diamond finesse for his twelfth trick, but he carried his thinking much further than

that

Convinced by the early plays that East had more diamonds than West and was consequent* ly more likely to have the king, Erdos decided to play fOr a squeeze throw-ln. Accordingly, he cashed the queen of clubs and his three remaining trumps, reducing his own hand to the 9-4 of spades and eight of diamonds, and dummy to the king of spades and A*Q of diamonds. On the last trump East had to discard from the A-10 of spades and K-10 of diamonds. Had he discarded a spade, Erdos would have led a spade to force a diamond return into the A-Q. But East discarded a diamond, and Erdos, very much alive to the situation, led a diamond to the ace, dropping the king, and thus brought home a well-played hand.
