(Closed Captioned; U.S.A.) 000 NFL Football Special by Joey Sasso CONFIDENTIAL REPORT: Gaitfe Francis' shocking decision to leave "General Hospital" has triggered a bitter controversy on the set of the top-rated ABC soap opera. But the 19-year-old star insists she had no choice but to quit before the relentless grind wore her out. Genie, who has been playing sexy Laura Webber on the show since the age of 14, plans to walk out on December 9, when her contract expires. Her spokesman, Paul Burditch, says ABC network executives refused to meet her demands for more money and a lighter work schedule. "She's done 1,000 episodes in five years, and the pressure and strain were getting to be too much," he told me. "She wanted fewer appearances and more money, but ABC wouldn't come up with a better con­ tract." Genie's father, veteran actor Ivor Francis, told me that his daughter, who works backbreaking 14-hour days on the soap, is "exhausted and utterly drained. I've worked in soap operas, so I know the price you have to pay in terms of stress," he says. "It's a killing schedule for an adult. For a teenager like Genie, I thought it would be disastrous." Francis reveals that his daughter's departure has caused bitter feelings among some of the "General Hospital" cast. "When Genie told them she was eaving, it was like an atom bomb explosion. She doesn't talk about it too much, but I know there was a lot of pressure put on tier to stay. A lot of people were angry with her for what they felt was her dissection of a winning formula."

TV CLOSEDP: There is a lot of shouting going on these days by various religious groups as to what is good and what is bad for television. Kathryn Crosby obviously doesn't think religion should enter into a television production unless it is a legitimate Sunday mdrning video church scene. Kathryn recently portrayed a woman whose husband was in a mental institution and was be­ ing urged by her children to seek happiness with another man by getting a divorce. The show was sponsored by the Lutheran Church and Kathryn, of course, is a devout Catholic. "Why should your religion govern your roles?" she asks. "I assume In- grid Bergman is Lutheran and she played Joan of Arc. What is the difference? In my case religion didn't enter the picture--I just thought the role I played was the best I've been offered in a long time." tv coawuLoa M svtcci. ate.
