In addition to California, 37 states have the death penalty. One of them is Illinois, where only recently Gov. George H. Ryan imposed a death penalty moratorium, citing 13 death row inmates who have been cleared of murder charges since that state reinstated capital punishment in 1977.

One was just two days from execution when evidence exonerating him was discovered. Although no foe of the death penalty as a concept, Ryan said he wants to make sure "only the clearly guilty are being executed" before proceeding. Is Cruz "clearly You won't know from tonight's episode, or hear any vigorous philosophical arguments either for killing or sparing him beyond the pleas of the rabbi and priest, preaching Scripture from a Bur-bank sound stage. "The West Wing" can be seen tonight at 9 on NBC. The network has rated it TV-14 (may be unsuitable for children younger than 14).

Howard Rosenberg's column appears Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. He can be contacted via e-mail at calendar.letters latimes.com. Continued from Fl are bound to see this as a primer on government and morality. Liberal Democrats, Bartlet and most of his key aides appear as anti-capital punishment as public opinion polls say the nation is overwhelmingly for it. Citing one such poll, Bartlet tonight has his staff rushing to summarize the issue and the case in question to find reasons "the public would find palatable" for him to commute the condemned man's sentence.

"Is there any evidence that capital punishment serves as deterrent?" asks one top aide. "Speculative evidence, at best," replies another. But where is the potential beneficiary of this intense activity? Behind an opaque veil. Instead of a warmblooded human, he is a political issue, a spiritual or intellectual component in a dialogue, an anonymous plot point en route to the episode's conclusion. We know that this man assigned to die in Indiana by lethal injection at 12:01 a.m.

on a Monday is named Simon Cruz, that he was convicted four years ago of murdering two members of a drug cartel, that his trial and legal defense may have been flawed, that the Supreme Court's rejection of his appeal makes his last hope the com-i passionate, but pragmatic Bartlet. Because we never see or hear Cruz, or learn anything personal about him, we have no emotional 1 investment in his life, either posi- tive or negative, beyond whether it ends on schedule via the big needle or continues after the episode's closing credits. We have no idea if he is unrepentant or claims to have found the Lord as Tucker did, if he's a snarling sadist or a possible victim of circumstances, if he has admitted guilt or claims to be innocent. In a sense, he's already dead, existing not as an individual, but only as a symbol. That can be good.

Without Cruz as a diversion, the issue of capital punishment alone occupies center stage. "Violence begets violence, vengeance is not Jewish," a rabbi (David Proval, who plays a murderous gangster in HBO's "The Sopranos," ironically) says in a sermon aimed at one of his Saturday morning congregants, White House communications director Toby Ziegler (Richard Schiff). "God is the only one who gets to kill people," counsels Bartlet's childhood parish priest (Karl Maiden) when summoned to the Oval Office by the president, a devout Catholic. But there are flaws in the episode's heavy reliance on spiritual arguments, for if capital punishment is a deterrent, as many of its advocates insist, then isn't the death penalty justified as act of self-defense? Or is Maiden's sage priest, for example, a pacifist who is opposed to killing even to avoid being killed, as soldiers do in war and police in defending themselves against criminals?

Network officials stated that the shift had nothing to do with concern about doling out too much money but rather a desire to add suspense to the game by making it more difficult for people to claim such large sums. game. NBC is no doubt extra-sensitive regarding any accusations of impropriety or unfairness tied to the program, which was at the center of the quiz show scandal of the 1950s ultimately leading to the genre's demise in prime time and inspiring the 1994 feature film "Quiz Show." "They were so concerned about the appearance of any sort of cheating," Franciosa said. "They were really freaked out about it."

Although "Millionaire" has siphoned some viewers away from "Frasier," NBC is also holding its own Thursdays, though an original episode of "ER" didn't command the week's No. 1 spot for only the second time this season, again yielding to the Regis Philbin game show.

ABC's tally included the most-watched edition of football's Pro Bowl since 1997. The network boosted its results with an extra Wednesday edition of "Millionaire" thrown on to undercut NBC's "Twenty One," dealing the rival quiz show its lowest rating yet despite a giveaway.
