This year the monitors were concerned about the writing and the writers, though quite awareof the quality of the acting. They judged a number of the scripts too poor for the actors for Mary Tyler Moore, Doris Day, Shirley Maclaine, Jimmy Stewart,and a number of others. Compliments went to the writers for "Allin the Family," "Marcus Weloy, M.0..""Night Gallery," "Ironside," and others. The Plot mu t be realIsJ.

Of "Mission impossible," one monitor says,"Impossiba is the word for this exaggerated plot andunreal story." SubLect matter - Wedge Monitors abhorred the amount ofviolence seen in the plays. Of "Gunsmoke" one reported, "Whoever said violence was off television? this show, one of the most violent, is on in prime time for children." Of the same play a man living near Chicago says,"An ordinary western that got rttiht down tO business -- three dead and aclobbering - a posse - and the level-headedmarshall - in a rather trite, corny, and tired story." A high school student says of it, "I dislike it becauseof the gun fights. They always draw blood, and the saloons look like onlythe slobs go there." Oe Substame there should be, accni-flinq to .t.hese monitors, evenin a comedy. "The appealing thing about%111.irethe Family°is the amount of truth there is in it;'says a schoolboy. Of another play, " Boring. No substance in the script," from an adult. Time of dax for different kinds of plays - The time of eveningfor different plays had much to do with the monitors' opinion of them. This one quotation makes the point - very politely: "All in the Family° should be switched to a weeknight. (A lot of families have weekendplans) And the time should be changed to 9:30 since younger children areusually in bed by this time.

  • And What It Means
    WASHINGTON ( AP)--Henry A. Kissinger said yesterday Hanoi has balked at President Nixo n's Vietnam peace proposals, presented in a nationwide ele- vision speech Tuesday night, on two counts: the fine print on blueprints for a U.S. wit idrawal and the election of a new Saigon government. Kissinger, w ho was Nixon's clandestine go-between in 12 just-disclosed H IXOH S secret Paris c conferences with key figures from Hanoi, said at a rare news conference he still hopes for a negotiating breakthrough. He called th e Presidents eight-point proposal a flexible one, not a take-it-or-leal ve-it proposition. The Presiden t's far-travelled assistant for national security affairs said Nixon, by publicizing 26 months of secret negotiations in an address peaceto the nation, may spur North Vietnam to resume talks "on a more urgent basis.", Nixon unfold ed a peace offer that includes an Indochina cease-fire, withdrawal of American forces and release of war pris- oners, new elections in South Vietnam with the Viet Cong participating, and resignation of the Saigon government a month before the internationally supervised balloting. proposal. Under the Nixon plan, all these developments would take place within six months of a Washington-Hanoi agreement. The basics of the proposal have ie an in 7hanni's hands since Octoberr, Nixon said, bu t Hanoi has given no response. Radio Hanoi, in a quick response to Nixon's address, said it contained nothing new an d insisted that the U.S. position was "not changed in any way." But the broadcast stopped short of rejecting the Chief Executive's proposals.

We know that evil is an immense fund of capital shared among all people, and that there is nothing in the criminal heart, no matter how horrible, whose germ is not also to be found in our own hearts.” - François Mauriac “The principal source of violence between human beings is mimetic rivalry, the rivalry resulting from imitation of a model who becomes a rival or of a rival who becomes a model” (I See Satan, 2). - René Girard “Ordinary men are usually part of a social and moral network that helps them maintain their humanity toward others and prevents them from becoming involved in inhuman acts. In order to socialize them into becoming murderers, they have to be insulated from their original social network and an alternative network has to be created for the potential killers, composed of men like themselves, led by a genocidal authority.
