...REMEMBRANCE (ABC, Nov. 13-23). Cast of thousands! Cost of millions! Makes Roots look like a sapling! The mammoth sequel to The Winds of War closes out its 18-hour fall campaign this week and sets the stage for a twelve-hour- plus conclusion next year...

Bush will face a far easier road in foreign affairs. With the exception of a deteriorating situation in Central America, the world map could hardly look friendlier. The Soviets appear eager to ease tensions, improve trade, talk arms control and relieve pressure on their disastrous domestic economy. Bush says he has learned the value of a hard-line, waiting approach from Reagan. He will be more eager than Reagan to exploit the new foreign policy trends in the Soviet Union, though he will be extremely cautious about destabilizing Eastern Europe and prompting a Soviet crackdown...
