Perhaps the opening week's most promising premiere is Room 222 (ABC), in which Lloyd Haynes plays a black Mr. Novak, a masterful and empathic teacher of history in an urban high school. Supporting characters include an iconoclastic Jewish principal (Michael Constantine) who openly hates PTA meetings, and a stereotypical, wide-eyed, white apprentice teacher (Karen Valentine) capable of telling Haynes, "I think it's so significant that you're colored." Except for such sappy moments, Room 222 may prove to be more good-humoredly wise on the problems of school prejudice and board-of-education bureaucracy...

...Novak (the saturnine-looking one) observed that Democratic National Chairman Fred Harris was "trying to carry water on both shoulders" in discussing whether the old-line politicians or the hew black groups should represent the party in Georgia. After CORE Director Roy Innis had left, Evans curtly dismissed his proposals for separation of the races. "I think," he said, "that Mr. Innis' basic racial philosophy makes very little sense.
