Love, Klieg-lighted and aromatic, came to television last week. In Los Angeles, over the Don Lee video network, 26-year-old William Vincent Hazen took Marian Padelford, 19, to be his lawful wedded wife. A dental technician, Bridegroom Hazen planned to celebrate his marriage vows with a script of his own devising.

S. jazz-player meets a fetid little Cockney girl, blunders into desperate trouble through circumstantial evidence. Another, The Bridegroom's Body, draws sinister parallels between human emotional patterns on an English estate and the serpentine behavior of mating swans.
