...View from the Bridge (by Arthur Miller) is a double bill-two long one-acters about life at opposite ends of the Brooklyn Bridge. The two are much farther apart in mood and merit than they are in locale. The Manhattan play, A Memory of Two Mondays, is a pat, shapeless picture of life in a warehouse during the Depression; the title play is a forceful drama about a decent man who is undone by blind passion and self-ignorance...
...doubly complicated because every time he looked, his backfield mates were playing a different position. Far too spry for a man with a gimpy leg. Halfback Murtland suited up and played right and left half with equal agility; Kyasky came in to limp through a touchdown drive; Fullback Pat Uebel started at left half, switched to right half and took his turn at the fullback slot besides. No matter who was playing where, Southpaw Holleder faked or ran, handed off or passed with the same precision. His passes were still a little hot for handling, but he eased up when...
...moved to a new night and a new time (Fri. 8 p.m., NBC). M.C. Jack Bailey also decided that the only way to fight money is with money and this week will plunk down a $100,000 jackpot to outbid Question's $64,000. The gimmick: College Student Pat Morris, 19, after being hypnotized and told that she cannot leave her chair, will get the opportunity of picking up $100,000 from a table across the stage. If she can break the hypnosis and seize the money, it is all hers. Should Contestant Morris fail, she will still have...
...vagabonds who magically transform an avaricious realtor and his purse-proud clients simply by camping out on the best lot in the swank subdivision. Robert Montgomery spread cheer with Charlton Heston as a plucky cowboy who triumphs over both the cops and robbers while winning the love of spirited Pat Roe. Kraft TV Theater took the edge off any social satire that remained in its adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Diamond as Big as the Ritz by playing the script as farce; U.S. Steel introduced the TV audience to Broadway Comic Menasha Skulnik with a Runyonesque comedy...
Focal point of the overnight parking problem is the city ordinance banning cars on the streets all night. Ready, Curry and Lynch favor standing pat on the law which they say was the result of public pressure. Curry claims that there is sufficient parking space for all student cars on University property (there isn't) while he's not going to worry about illegally parked cars till he sees all the city's parking lots, garages and driveways bulging with autos every night. Ready, who really isn't too worried either, feels that parked cars are a fire hazard...
