GUIDELINE (NBC, 1:30-2 p.m.). Hatred and tension between black and white and ways to dispel such troubles are the subjects under discussion on "Race and the Church: A Priest...
...associate of radical leftists. He has gone so far as to charge Bradley, a former policeman, with being anti-law enforcement because of his criticism of the police department's community relations program. The mayor, while accusing his opponent of a racist approach, easily invokes the race issue himself. "In Los Angeles," he says, "you don't have the mayor fighting with the police department as they are in Cleveland, where they elected a Negro mayor."

Perhaps Count Fleet's fifteen races as a two-year-old contributed more to his unsoundness than his six races at three. Longden and Majestic Prince seem to be quitting a Channel swim in full stroke a mile from shore, but they are quitting winners. Anyway everybody knows that Mom, Apple Pie, and Undefeated Triple Crown Winners are just a mirage...
