HALLMARK HALL OF FAME (NBC, 7:30-9 p.m.).* "Lamp at Midnight," a dramatized rendering of Galileo Galilei's 17th century argument with the Roman Catholic Church. Galileo (Melvyn Douglas) said the earth was round; the church and its prelates (George Voscovic, David Wayne) said he was wrong and what's more, a heretic. The Inquisition made Galileo take it back. To assure viewers that all is forgiven, Chicago Archbishop John Patrick Cody gives an introduction to the show...

Stephen's physical person consisted of the three minds of his creators and a stylized signature that...
...Fame brings embarrassing problems to someone in Potter's position, and one of the trickiest was a letter he wrote that was published in Sports Illustrated, the Boston Herald, the Globe, and the New York Herald-Tribune. Potter had discovered that Roger Maris had indeed broken Babe Ruth's record of 60 homeruns in 154 games, since he had hit none at all in the first nine games of the 163-game season, and 61 in the last 154 games, a season no longer than Ruth's.
