Check local listings for date and time: NET PLAYHOUSE (shown on Fridays). "Thirteen Against Fate: The Lodger," first in a series of Georges Simenon mysteries, tells the story of a family that discovers one of its favorite boarders is a murderer, but cannot bear to turn him in to the police...
...impossible to judge the real political value of the Kennedy-family blitz, since as often as not the crowds turn out merely to meet celebrities. But Ethel Kennedy, for one, more than pays her way. Though expecting their eleventh child and terrified of flying, Ethel has covered virtually the entire primary circuit with Bobby. "I feel better when she is here," Kennedy tells friends. Small wonder. Her gaiety and energy are inexhaustible in the face of 18-hour campaign days, run stockings, demolished hairdos or even last week's Oregon primary. Not the least of Ethel's virtues...

It was an instant hit, and, for better or worse, the show is almost sure to be syndicated...
Despite the steep cost of the project, Kraus expects to turn a tidy profit with the reprints. So far, about 50,000 copies have been sold, mostly to university libraries where for the first time they will be available for students' perusal. Though most of the magazines are in the public domain, Kraus scrupulously tracked down the editors and in most cases is paying them modest royalties on sales. As for the authors, they are happy to see their early efforts exhumed and once again in print. Much to her delight, Marianne Moore reported that she had come across...
