ROWAN AND MARTIN'S LAUGH-IN (NBC, 8-9 p.m.). The rapid-fire artists are back with the program regulars Judy Carne, Arte Johnson, Henry Gibson, Goldie Hawn, Jo Anne Worley, Gary Owens and Ruth Buzzi...
...mayor was in such a fury, however, that he turned down offers by NBC and ABC to be quizzed by panels of reporters. He wanted an hour to himself, free of embarrassing questions from the press.

Cracked Carson: "She wasn't even pregnant when she got on." Flying through the Washington-Chicago-New York area known as the Golden Triangle has not yet reached that extreme. Still, delays have become so bad that the Federal Aviation Administration last week proposed limits on traffic at major airports in the triangle to make air travel more manageable. The rules are meant to cut down...
