SAGA OF WESTERN MAN (ABC, 4-5 p.m.). An opportunity to see again the critically acclaimed "The Road to Gettysburg," an account of the adventures of two soldiers, a Yank (Kevin McCarthy) and a Rebel (David Carradine...
...Bach's spiritual depth alone clearly does not account for his force, any more than his forbidding technique does. What generates his awesome power is the dynamic equilibrium between both sides of his creative faculty. He gives a full measure of both head and heart, and stands as an exemplar not only of fullness but, above all, of balance. Existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre, of all people, once wrote of Bach: "He taught how to find originality within an established discipline; actually-how to live...
Married. James A. Pike, 55, iconoclastic Episcopal cleric who resigned as Bishop of the California Diocese in 1966 to pursue philosophical research; and Diane Kennedy, 30, who met Pike two years ago in Berkeley and collaborated with him on his most recent book, The Other Side, an account of his spiritualistic adventures in trying to contact his dead son; she for the first time, he for the third (his first marriage was annulled in 1941, his second ended in divorce); in what Pike termed an "ecumenical Christian service" at a Methodist church in San Jose, Calif...

A self-described "nice Jewish boy from The Bronx" who attended Brandeis and Berkeley, then worked in Mississippi for S.N.C.C. before dropping into hippiedom, Hoffman has now produced a slender, acid-infused account of the rise of the nonviolent yippies. The book trips along almost gaily on currents of aphorism and imagination. Between its often outrageous put-ons and put-downs lies much that is of significance to American youth-and those adults who would understand the radical young...
