...FROM U.N.C.L.E. (NBC, 8:30-9:30 p.m.). Illya Kuryakin. (David Mc-Callum) nearly takes the deep six in a sea of soapsuds when he turns beatnik to trace the source of a gas that causes its victims to hiccough to death...
Mother's Mikes. If the President is dismayed by the psephologists (only 46% of the people approve of him, according to last week's Gallup poll), he showed not a trace of it at his press conference, one of the most successful in his 1,051 days in office.

But one who had not forgotten about them was Ugo Procacci, Florence's superintendent of galleries and formerly the Uffizi Gallery's chief restorer. While bundling off Florentine art treasures for safekeeping after the outset of World War II, he was struck by a five-paneled altarpiece in the Church of Santa Croce. Underneath the thick overpainting, his restorer's eye told him, might lie a masterpiece. So even in the haste of the moment...
