To keep itself in the prestige race, ABC-TV’ relies on such occasional series of broadcasts as the “Saga of Western Man,” the Jacques Cousteau undersea programs and "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.” And of course there was the monumental documentary of Africa and “Stage 67,” and there are the tw r o-hour theatrical adaptations.
