...From a file drawer he fetched evidence from criminal cases his office has dealt with. The point was, it seemed, simple citations can lead to bigger things. One example: a bicycle obscured an auto license plate. The car was stopped, and it yielded eleven bags of a "brown mushroom substance I can't pronounce (psilocybin), although I know it's a dangerous drug," some marijuana and pills. Large cases or little, the marshal said, you have to be on your toes. Mothers used to come down to the saloons and leave their children outside on the benches until all hours...

But TV's newest mogul is keeping his series under tight wraps to heighten the suspense until its Sept. 29 premiere, leaving both critics and viewers to wonder whether its giant-size ambitions will enhance, or merely overwhelm, the small screen. Alfred Hitchcock Presents, which will follow Spielberg's show on Sunday nights, will consist largely of remakes of old Hitchcock episodes. That ploy worked surprisingly well in a TV movie last spring that...
