About three years ago. he was offered a role on daytime's "General Hospital." His agents urged him to turn it down "They felt it was a step backward." explains Clarke, who had already been a regular on two nighttime series --"the short-lived "Delta House" and "Eight Is Enough." "But I felt that my career was in trouble, so I took the gamble." Clarke's stint at "General Hospital" turned out to be considerably more than he had bet on. Take the eight months the handsome Vale gradu­ ate spent portraying two characters. It was enough just to play Grant Andrews, whom Clarke refers to as "Mr. All-American Nice Guy." Switching back and forth between Grant Andrews and evil look-alike Grant Putnam was exhausting. "It was originally only supposed to last one month." Clarke says, "then it was two. I was glad when the other guy was put in the nut house. I just hope he stays there -- forever." gets an unusuol res0or>" -from-vf* But 'Clarke doeSP t plan Sam when she tells riim cro- to stick around "General sier's proposal. Hospital" quite that long.

"I'm antsy," admitssthe Gettysburg, Pa., native, who now lives outside Los Angeles with his wife. Kaye, and their 5-year-old son, Cary Ryan. "I'm ready to compete for other roles." One thing Clarke isn't considering is a switch from daytime to nighttime soaps. "They're not what I want to do," he explains. "I want a two- or three-person show where I have to carry more of the ball. I'd like to do a comedy, but there aren't a lot of possibilities since my type of comedy isn't a sitcom. It's sophisti­ cated comedy. "Who knows. I may be unemployed. Now that would be the ultimate challenge." ©1*5 Computog Walters visits Lunden By Amanda Bruce Broadcast journalist Barbara Walters joins Joan Lunden on cable this week to talk about her relationship with her daughter. The Walters- Lunden "Mother's Day" episode will air May 10 on Lifetime. Halfway through the show, host and guest switch roles, and Miss Walters interviews Miss Lunden and Miss Lunden's mother, who drops by to talk about their mother-daughter relationship. Believe it or not. the sunny,. smiling co-host of ABCs "Good Morning America" was' once a rebellious child. The Arts & Entertain­ ment Network has announced the acquisition of 13 operas, six of them by Mozart, from the annu­ al Glyndebourne Festival. Some of the divas slated to appear are Kiri Te Kanawa, Dame Janet Baker. Ileana Cotrubas and Frederica von Stade. Later this month, on May 30, "I Live for Art -- Tosca" will present pro­ files of some of the wom­ en who have played Tosca. Robert Merrill hosts the program, in which clips of 16 divas, including Maria Callas and Montserrat Caballe, will "be featured. e Last, but hardly least, Lena Home TelelAtives \ Deborah Raffin in V'Lace II" role f By Wendy Wallace In last season's hit.

Together, they launch a search to determine which of three wealthy men -- an American astronaut (James Read). an Arab king (Antho­ ny Higgins) and a distinguished European conductor (Patrick Ryecart) -- is Lili's father. Their only hope is to wheedle -- or blackmail -- the ransom money out of him. Four -of the story's original stars -- Brooke Adams, Arielle Dombasle, Anthony Higgins and Miss Cates -- will re-create their roles. Deborah Raffijttjoins the cast as Lili's mother. Judy. • As the newest cast member, Kiss Raffin had fewer problems than she had feared filling the role .previously played by Bess Armstrong. "Initially. I was worried that they wanted me to emulate the character from last year. But I did my own interpreta­ tion and found it wonderful that I was given that kind of freedom. - - "I found Judy to be a terrific character. She's very dif­ ferent from anything that I've ever done." And while Miss Raffin's co-stars had previously worked together, she managed to form a close relationship with them. "I've always admired Brooke Adams and her work. And although I did not know Phoebe Cates beforehand. I got to like her. I hope that our friendship is reflected on the screen." ©1985 Computog The BOX SEAT Jim Price of ESPN talks college baseball cable viewers get another chance to catch the video version of Lena Home's Broadway show, "Lena Home: The Lady and Her Music," which airs May 5 on The Arts & Entertain­ ment Network. (It aired on Showtime in March of' 1984.) The award-win­ ning singer (she won a Tony, a Drama Desk award and honors from the New York Drama Crit­ ics Circle for this perform­ ance) sizzles through an amazing three hours in this one-woman show. The songs she perform! as she talks about her life and career include "Stor­ my Weather." "From This Moment On" and "Can't Help Lovin' That Man." She's a formidable per­ former and, can switch from the comic to the dead serious in moments. And she's still gorgeous. This is entertainment at its best. ©1965 Computog By Adam Backarman You don't have to be a fanatic to watch college baseball on ESPN. Maybe you're an alumnus of the* scheduled team. Or maybe you've got a brother on the squad. Or maybe you're just curious -- although curious owners of fantasy- league baseball franchises, eager to scope out young, aluminum-wielding talent, represent a novel brand of fanaticism. If you do tune in on Sunday, May 5. watch Pete Incaviglia swing the bat. The muscular Oklahoma State senior leftfielder is a good bet to be a No. 1 pick in the upcoming 'l^iiatetyr draft. He and his Cowboy teammates will host the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Stillwater, ^jim Price, a* catcher "bt<th^t968 World Series-winning Tigers and now ESPN's college base­ ball analyst, has watched Incaviglia improve during last four years. Price attributes Incaviglia's sharpened skills to the exemplary coaching now found around the college ranks. "When Pete first came to OSU." says Price, "he was strictly a fastball hitter. Now he's an offspeed hitter as well, who can adjust to breaking balls and chan- geups. He doesn't just hit. He knows why he's hitting, or why he isn't. He's ' learned enough along the ' way so that on the next level, when he goes into a slump, he'll be able to monitor himself and detect any changes in his swing." Price has covered col­ lege ball for ESPN since 1981, when the station began airing the double- elimination College World Series from Omaha. Now that ESPN's regular-season package has expanded to 15 games, Price could be considered higher educa­ tion's most regularly sched­ uled college baseball spokesman. He compares the quality of ball played in college to that of the minors this way: "The best college teams could step in and hold their own against Double A squads. They don't have the all-around abilities most Double A teams do. But a Ron Frazier team from Miami, or a Gary Ward OSU team would not beat themselves. You watch these men train athletes; they're running baseball academies. In the pros" -- Price was a product of the Pirate farm system before being traded to Detroit in '67 -- "there's little time for real teaching. You're so busy playing games, travel­ ing to games, and playing more games. But in college, teaching! has evolved into a science. Gary Ward could talk three or four hours on hitting technique, explaining something like the irfner- * fiojjc of the power base. TMf would leave you scratching your head." ©ItMCompulof
