The proceedings, staged before a large and increasingly stupefied audience last week, will be shorn of the technical glitches, gaping pauses and personal faux pas that lent the show a kind of desperate piquancy. Edited down for a three-hour ABC time slot, Night of 100 Stars will be sent out over the air waves on March 8 with a scenario jerry-built by 100 Stars Writer-Producer Hildy Parks, who with Husband Alexander Cohen conspires yearly...
