yr wrv yy ELEVISION RED Gleason Returns Tape Memo Delights TV presiding judge, John J. Sirica, for permission to air tapes played at the trial. Sirica informally denied permission after seeking guidance from Judge George H. Hart head of the federal district court in Washington, who. gave Sirica a consensus of opinion by the court's judges.

Hart, in a memo to Sirica, said the judges felt verbatim tape transcripts provided the press "appear to constitute more than adequate disclosure" to the public of the contents. In a key passage, he also noted the judges were concerned release of the tapes for broadcast might prove a crack in the court's longstanding ban against any broadcast of court proceed ings. "In a sense, if we allow replay of what occurred in court," he said, referring to the playing of the tapes in court, "it will be very difficult to explain why we will not let a tape recorder be used by a court reporter to replay the entire proceedings." Legal sources say the ban against televising proceedings in federal courts is partly because of fears the cameras will be too obtrusive. But the major fear, they say, is trial participants may act differently than they would in a camera-less court, thus subtly or significantly influencing the conduct of the trial.

"He was exceedingly clear it doesn't set that kind of precedent," said Wald, emphasizing this wasn't the intent of the broadcasters who sought court permission to air the tapes. Bill Sheehan, ABC News president, was in Hawaii on business and couldn't be reached for comment on the judge's memo. His network, NBC, CBS, the Public Broadcasting Service, the Radio and Television News Directors Association and record firms had asked the U.S. District Court in Washington if they could copy the tapes. Prior to that request, filed as a legal motion, CBS newsman Fred Graham and his NBC and CBS colleagues informally asked the trial's Moyers Back To Grind NEW YORK (AP) Bill Moyers takes off this week for a series of meetings in connection with Bill Moyers' Foreign Report, a new -ublic TV series on international affairs that will start Jan.

16. For Moyers, 40, it's back to the weekly grind he left last spring when he folded his Emmy Award-winning Bill Moyers' Joumel after a three-season run on public TV to simpl rest and think. But the former White House press secretary says he has no hesitation about returning to the grind, which calls for 20 hour-long shows. His new attack, he says, calls for a mixture fo taped interviews with various world figures, historians, philosophers and journalists and some documentaries about foreign countries such as Japan and Mexico. show." Gleason has no anxieties' about abandoning comedy for straight drama.

He starred 14 years ago in Gigot, a strictly dramatic movie. "I think every comedian alive can play drama except Groucho said Gleason. "He's just too funny to do anything else. "As for me, it's like 2 weeks in the country. Drama is a hell of a lot easier than telling jokes.

You don't have to pause after the punch line waiting for a laugh. "And we've got plenty of good equipment and facilities down in Florida for making a television series. I'm looking forward to the whole project. We should start production in January." Until then, Jackie will star on CBS in a Las Vegas special, along with a guest appearance on the Tony Orlando and Dawn show. "I'm looking forward to them all," the great one concluded.

"But. Panama Fargo is the important thing. And I can't wait to get started." By VERNON SCOTT HOLLYWOOD (UPD-Jackie Gleason will return to television in a series next fall, starring in a dramatic show in which he hopes he will not have to crack a single joke. The great one, slimmed down from 250 pounds to a relatively svelte 205, will star in Panama Fargo, a 2-hour mini-series. The show is scheduled for the ABC-TV fall lineup in 1975 with eight eisodes per season.

Norman Lear, producer of Maude, All in the Family and Good Times, will head the project. "And we're going to make the whole thing in Florida," said Gleason triumphantly. He makes his home in Florida. This year Jackie's 15-year, multimillion-dollar contract with CBS-TV ran out, freeing the hefty comedian for work elsewhere. But this time Jackie won't be looking for laughs.

Not intentionally, at least. "A dramatic show was the only way for me to go," he said. "I play the title He's a negotiator who can best anyone at their own game. He's a former president of his own Madison Avenue advertising firm who retires to Florida. "Friends call him now and then to straighten out big problems.

So, he helps out when he feels like it. The show can cover any situation. "I didn't want to do a detective or a doctor or a lawyer. I don't see how they can do any stories for those characters anymore. They've used them all up." As far as Gleason is concerned, the comedy writers have exhausted that field, too.

"When I agreed to do this show, I felt like working, but not doing comedy," he explained. "Jokes are hard to do. and it is difficult to find new jokes if you're picky. And I'm picky. "I just don't think it's possible to do a top comedy-variety series if you insist on quality material every week.

But Richard S. Salant of CBS and Richard Wald of NBC agree it sets no legal precedent for eventually permitting live or delayed broadcast coverage of federal court cases they'd like to cover electronically. "I don't think it goes that far," Salant said of U.S. District Court Judge Gerhard A.
