It was believed Vinogradov would report on his talks with Prime Minister Eisaku Sato in which Sato urged the Soviet Union to play an active role in arranging a conference for a peaceful solution of the Viet Nam conflict. to attract at- I shouldn't like tention." By PAUL JONES Television will never be the same after Wednesday night.

and if you don't think that will shake UTAH School Teacher Discovers Way Thursday nights, with each episode closing with the familiar tag line, "Tune in tomorrow night or next Wednesday night" as the case may be, to learn what fate awaits Batman. IN THE INITIAL episode Wednesday your hero is trying to break the villainous, screwball rhymes of The Rid-dler (played as nastily as possible by the grinning Frank Gorshin) and his frisky moll (Jill St. John). Backgrounds include New York's World Fair and a noisy discotheque where Batman tries to be suspicious, For example of what to watch for: Batman, on the trail of Riddler, enters a discotheque in his full regalia-cape, cowl, boots, etc. He strolls about and a waiter approaches him, asking if Batman would like a table down front The caped crusader's noble reply: "Just looking, thanks, I'll stand at the bar.

as the producer said, "that it's in." It's so bad that it's good. Based on Bob Kane's comic book characters and the old movie serials, the series is bound to offer loads' of fun tu pop art devotees. And there's no question it will be a big favorite with the youngsters. With that combination The Batman can't help crashing into the Top Five programs on the air. Tt might even wind up in first place.

The show utilizes color better than any show I have seen on the air. The props, costumes and backgrounds are all designed with color in mind. But then, the great appeal of the show is visual. The dialogue is tongue-in-cheek and cleverly written. It obviously will appeal to the wide-eyed youngsters and the egg heads will get a charge out of it too.

The exploits of the caped and masked crusader will be To TriDle Your Also Batman is asked to dance by beautiful Molly (Jill St. John) and they do a torrid, you guessed it, "Ba-tusi." Molly eyes the gyrating crime-fighter and says, "You shake a mean cape, Batman." THE INITIAL EPISODE, which, incidentally, is titled "Hi Diddle Riddle, Smack In the Middle," finds Batman (played by Adam West and his young side-kick, Robin, (played by Burt Ward) in all kinds of dire predicaments, but armed with the weapons to fight back. The Riddler is forever providing Batman with riddles which he must solve in order his young sidekick, Robin, to be effective in fighting evil. One of the key riddles in the opening episode involves a cigaret lighter. It seems that the solution to the rid- A A up uc icic- Paul Jones viewing public you've got another thought coming.

One of the men tosses his cigaret over "I must say that this is one of the most useful education experiences I hove ever hod. It certainly compares favorably ble with The Riddler, who is effectively played by Frank Gorshin, one of the most capable pantomimists alive. The Batman is fun particularly in color.
