FOOTBALL FANS who favor TV on weekends and Mondays might find i t inter esting that 182 regular sea son games have been booked by NBC, ABC. and CBS, not t o m e n t i o n p r e s e a s o n matches, divisional play offs, championships, and bowl games. It has been estimated that 20,000.000 follow the TV games with reasonable regularity. SOON VIEWERS may be able to see their favorite TV personality l ife size and in l iving color. A company in Massachusetts is gearing up to market a color-TV pro jector complete with a 4.5 x 6 foot screen which mounts on the wall . The initial cost will be around $2500. THE TUBE recently aired a seasonal yule show "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." Maybe the Grinch in an early bird and -got Thanksgiving also. One suspects, how ever, that Thanksgiving was devoured by a greedy, com mercial Christmas spirit . Not the intended spirit at all . A NEW children's series ^will debut in January on MBS.
