I 'M.E Mi - PLAINDEALKR-KKIIJAY. NOVEMBER 16, 1973 TV C<MJ MENTARY By John Smiley THE NEW, slim, athletic Perry Mason still wins...and wins...and wins with a com­ bination of uncanny detective work and canny courtroom maneuvers. However the show is in deep ratings trouble, and unless an unforeseen trick can be lifted from the old proverbial bag, Mason is going to lose the big one... lose himself from the TV screen. FANS of "Star Treck's" Leonard Nimoy can see their hero in the flesh when he oplps on Broadway November 7 in a drama called "Pull Circle," a world War II story. THE MAGICIAN is a hero who has the power to over­ come the forces of evil with­ out stabbing, shooting, or getting up beside somebody's head with a two-by-four. With his abracadabra, he hopes to disappear from the current constraints on TV violence. The sleight of hand doesn't quite do it. The violence on the show is not hidden in a well timed puff of smoke. A DIFFERENCE of opin­ ion makes for a jolly good horse race. Some betters be­ lieve that movies are soon to become the major staple of TV prime time. A top pro­ grammer at CBS scoffs at that notion. He says movies aren't knocking off the whop­ ping ratings they once did. CBS may be betting on com­ edy shows and continuing dramas in the future.

RECIPE J}y Sarah Anne Sheridan Here are two holiday sweets that are easy to make and keep several weeks. The holiday season always puts me in the mood to have guests come by often and the more 1 can do ahead and have on hand just makes company that much more en­ joyable.

Keeps well in refrigerator or freezer. Slice and serve. Brandy Balls Vanilla wafers, 3 small boxes, crushed. 1 Vz T cocoa 2 T karo 1 c powdered sugar 1 c broken pecans 8 T Bourbon whiskey Mix all ingredients togeth­ er and form into balls about one inch in diameter. IJoll in more powdered sugar and place in sealed cans. Know ± sTMi Have you ever noticed the effect of temperature on ani­ mals and insects outside your home? Certain patterns are followed faithfully by these creatures. Birds, of course, start south when the temperature begins to drop. How they know just when to leave is a good question, and whether they know a winter will be severe or mild ojie cannot say- There are many who think they do. Other creatj/res follow a definite pattern. Bees, for example, are vicious at less than 50 degrees and ants will stay home at a slightly high­ er temperature. The calls of the Katydid can be translated into a temperature reading, depending upon the length of the call. It's believed the black field cricket's chirp will give you a temperature reading--and some swear by this formula. At 70 degrees the cricket chirps 129 times a minute and the number of chirps de­ creases as the temperature drops. So nature has many tricks concerning the weather, and temperature greatly affects many of her creatures in de­ finite patterns you can learn to recognize.

Because of this, Democrat­ ic aspirants are already mak­ ing campaign noises. From Flprida Governor Reubin Askew is speaking out on national issues, recently called for congressional ap­ pointment of a new special Watergate prosecutor, etc. Senator Henry Jackson CD- Wash) is leading a charge, especially in appealing to America's Jews; Jackson leads the fight to bar expand­ ed trade with Russia unless Moscow agrees to allow more than the current flow (about 30,000 annually) of Russian Jews to Israel. Jackson was also the leading exponent of going to war in the Middle East, if necessary, to save Israel. (Israel, it turns out, was not really in serious danger and won another war and more territory.) Senator Sam Ervin (DNC), the television star (some say ham) and folk-hero, is being boosted for second spot on the ticket in 1976. And Sen­ ator Ted Kennedy, of course, is the man to beat. The po­ litical game right now is to determine whether Kennedy has been helped or hurt by Watergate and other scan­ dals. He has been helped, of course, because the Nixon Administration has suffered such a black eye. But some point to a recent poll which showed the American public felt the scandal he was in (involving the late night death of his secretary) was more reprehensible that Watergate. It's also said his apparent tie-in with former special prosecutor Archibald Cox, his alleged political connec­ tion with the Watergate Com­ mittee, have hurt him. But it's probably true that all Democrats have had their chances enhanced in 1973, and Kennedy has many nos­ talgic advantages going for him. Republicans are split as to whether their chances were helped or hurt by former Vice President SpiroAgnew's res­ ignation. The scandal had to hurt; yet many believe Agnew could not have won, thougn he would have been nominated if there had been no scandal. Thus the party will have a stronger candi- LONDON-One of the top­ ics that is continually dis­ cussed in Britain is whether there is still a need for school uniform. Most parents still favour them. Some schools have aban­ doned them altogether while others no longer insist upon t h e m b u t t h e m a j o r i t y o f schools in this country still have a school uniform. What the uniform consists of and how strictly it is ad­ hered to naturally depends on the individual head of each school. The traditional uniform for girls is a tunic, usually grey or navy blue, with a white blouse and school tie. In summer dresses are worn of regulation style and pat­ tern. The boys wear white or grey shirts with school tie, grey trousers and pull­ o v e r . T h e r e ' s u s u a l l y a school badge which is sewn on to the blazer pocket, an item worn by both boys and girls. Some schools state what socks and shoes should be worn, and type and colour of top-coats. At one time girls wore hats or berets and the boys caps, but fewer schools pre­ scribe these now. A number of schools have modernized the uniform a bit so that instead of blouses or shirts, roll-neck sweaters are worn by both girls and boys. The concept behind wear­ ing a uniform is that the child's background is not so obvious. The child from a really poor home looks no different to the one from a rich one. Perhaps not quite so applicable now as some decades ago, but obviously some parents can spend far more money on their chil­ dren's clothes than others. Also many mothers feel it saves a lot of argument in the mornings about what clothes will be worn each day. The schools where the heads are insistent on the uniform being worn correctly sometimes appear in the newspapers concerning in­ cidents such as a child be­ ing sent home for wearing the wrong coloured socks. date in 1976.
