TOMORROW'S WORLD: FEEDING THE BILLIONS (NBC, 10-11 p.m.). A land-clearing project in the Amazon jungles, an Idaho fish farm, and large-scale production of protein-rich algae in California are some of the experiments under way to expand the world's food supply...

...terms of Russian song the question of restraint is probably irrelevant. There is nothing diminutive about this music. Everything is done in broad strokes and grand gestures. The syllables are rich and mouth-filling, the chords are full, and the passions are great, and as long as somewhere in the world these exist, there is still reason to hope...

One approach is to concentrate on the Blocks' very rich collection of portraits, including Degas' distant "Young Man with a Hat," Seurat's study for a "Woman Powdering Herself," the famous Matisse "The Young Sailor" (version two) and the even better-known van Gogh "Self-Portrait," showing his bandaged ear.

...Block collection is far too rich for only one visit. In addition to the works described, there are sensitive flower paintings by Piet Mondriaan, known for his geometrical constructions, drawings by Matisse, and a powerful portraval of Christ and the Apostles by Rouault. In short, if the collection consisted of only a small fraction of the work now on exhibit, it would still well merit a visit...
