Pueblo. An ABC drama about the North Korean seizure of the electronic intelligence ship, USS Pueblo. This repeat, starring Hal Holbrook, supposedly works on a dream-like structure, and since it's all based on the public record, that's probably the best way to do it. Ch. 5, 9 p.m. 2 hours...
McCleery is an affable white-maned optimist of 62. He readily admits that his current lifestyle at Princeton is as fulfilling for him, a man consumed by his devotion to theater, as those days when he was a Broadway collegue of Helen Hays, Hal Holbrook, and Peter de Vrees.

This week more than 6,000 people from all parts of the city were due to fill the 4,600-seat Civic Center auditorium and adjacent rooms to see Jackson, white City Council President Wyche Fowler and 18 city councilmen (nine white, nine black...

James Franciscus speaks for Jonathan, Juliet Mills for his love interest, Hal Holbrook for the Elder, Richard Crenna and Dorothy McGuire for Jonathan's parents. None of these actors has chosen to be included in the film's credits, a privilege only the least charitable would question...
