In Cash LOS ANGELES (UPI) Thieves hold up Crocker Bank branches are liable to be surprised by the latest gimmick In the long war between the cops and the robbers -exploding toot. Hidden in bundles of money security specialists aren't saying how is a capsule containing red dye and tear gas that can be triggered by a radio signal when the robber is safely away from the bank, perhaps gloating over his getaway. The device has been used twice.

On July 2, two men, who took J702 from a Crocker branch, were some distance from the bank when the bag of money exploded, covering them with crimson dye and enveloping (hem in a cloud of skin-burning tear gas. The detonation scattered the money over the street, where it apparently was scooped up by bystanders, but two men trying to wash the chemicals off in a nearby apartment house were collaredby police. A bag contairing $8,200 taken from a Hawthorne branch of the bank last Thursday went off in the getaway car and the robbers threw it out the window. The money was recovered and police know just what they are looking for two red-dyed men in their 20s driving a car with a scarlet interior. Television In Review COPY DATA OF BROWNSVILL!

2334 BOCA CHICA BLVD. 541-4883 By JOAN HANAUER UPI Television Writer NEW YORK (UPI) Ire televised proceedings of the second session of the Democratic convention looked like a high-school reunion complete with the one-time home-coming queen and at least one glaring absence. There was Hubert Humphrey and George McGovem, Ed Muskic and George Wallace, Richard Daley and Avercll Harriman, Coretta King and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. The man who wasn't there was Sen. Edward M.

Kennedy, and as remarkable as his absence from the limelight was the lack of comment from television newsmen about the man whose possible candidacy has flaunted the Democratic party for eight years. While the audience was more settled during the long second- night evening of oration on the platform, the speeches themselves were enough to drive viewers over to the All-Star game on ABC, which undoubtedly will turn up Die winner in the Nielsen ratings tor the Tuesday night. But they would have missed one of the few unannounced highlights Mrs. Onassis' arrival. While CBS and NBC picked up the former first lady, accompanied by Pierre Salinger, her sister, Lee Hadziwill, and Mrs.

RaoMwill's son, a switch to ABC found that network a i that Sparky Lyle was warming up in the bullpen. He never even got to pilch. A little later CBS was hoist by its own commercial --which unfortunately was on the air when Democratic a i a Committee Chairman Robert Strauss introduced Mrs. Onassis to the convention. She stood for applause, as recorded on NBC.

Strauss asked her to repeat the gesture, possibly at the urgent request of CBS. tf the Democratic convention lacks fire on CBS and NBC, still, viewing it on television gives the watcher a feeling of i i a ABC's edited coverage, which certainly keeps the viewer informed without tying him to Madison Square Garden, lacks that thread of excitement, that edgy feeling that i urexpected might happen. No matter how the network men scurry about the convention floor, interviewing Paul Newman on proposed oil industry legislation, catching Georgia delegate Sam Way in his Jimmy Carter mask (made in France, S3), noting that one side of the Louisiana sign misspelled the state's name, the only real intrigue lies in guessing who Jimmy Carter will pick after Ihese several days of auditions to be his running mate. The A.C. Nielsen national ratings are not yet ready, but in New York City, where the convention is meeting, the audience for the movie "Casablanca," shown on a local station, earned a larger audience than CBS ajid NBC combined, with a 23 share of the audience, compared to 12 for CBS and 9 for NBC.

The 10 top network programs for the week ending July 11, according to the A.C. Nielsen were: 1: Ms Universe; 2: "Starsky and Hutch;" 3: "M-A-S-H;" 4: "One Day At A Time;" 5: "Switch;" 6: "Happy Days;" 7: "Lavenie and Shirley;" 8: (lie) Bob Newhart and "Barnaby Jones; "10: "All In The Family."
