up to and and missing out on the biggest quiz prize in video history. "Vacation? echoed the veteran 43-year-old Brooklyn policeman. "Why, no, I wouldat ask for one now, especially not after winning the $50,000 last week. No, I've got a tour of duty at midnight tonight, just like always. Even if he'd won the ton monrv a victory that would have made him a truly national figure, he still wouia nave started that tour of duty four hours later, "just like always." Barney Ariuck is that kind of guy.

Which makes it a double shame that he met hia match in the really tough question that climaxed his four appearances as the first contestant on NBC's new attempted answer to CBS-TV's "$64,000 Question. i A RLUCK. on the New York po-1 lice force for IT years, holds a law detrree from Brooklvn Tjw School, but his knowledge of legal history was not quite up to that of Associate Justice William O. Douglas, of the U. S.

Supreme Court. Douglas prepared and wrote the A CrUies Choice For Tonight "The Archer-Shee Case," by Alexander Woollcott, starring Sir Cedrie Hardwicke, on "TV Reader's Digest," Channel 6, 8 P. M. quesion that triDDed the sereeant and was supposed to read it on the program in a live remote pickup irom Washington. But the justice Dowea out at the last moment.

Arluck had no beefs about the Question, and correctly answered me iitst, part wnen he identined the "ordeal" that 13th century defendants underwent if they refused to plead guilty or not guilty as nara ana sustained cunishment. But he came a croDuer when hr said tnat it was according to a judicial decision that tudzes later required to enter a not guilty plea ior aeienaants reiusing to plead. Actually, it was Congress in 1790 that ordered judges to plead for defendants. ARNEY termed it a "fair" cues. Jj tion which he might have been able to answer if "I were practicing law." But even thoueh he missed He's still some $28,000 richer, after taxes, man he was when he and "The Big Surprise" both were introduced a month ago.

Although visibly (and natural! disappointed that Barney failed to sro the "route, his wifp PranriK who hails from West Philadelphia and still has her family there-told us, "I thinfc he did very well getting as far as he did. The Arlucks will spend part of the $50,000 prize buying a house, possibly on Long and will invest the rest of it to finance the education of their three sons, Billy, 13; Gregory, 7, and Robert, 21 months. Barney recently took the examinations for police lieutenant, but won't know how he made out for a couple of months. He's too levelheaded to make any rash long-range predictions, but he was sure of one thing: "My boys are not go ing to Decome policemen when they grow up." 0 0 IF THE Arlucks were understandably disaDDointed that Bam didn't quite make it, they had plenty of company at NBC. The network's brass had been hoping that the sergeant would knock ntr the $100,000 just as much as he had been.

For if he had. "The Bis Rnmris would have been established as a snow on a par with "The $64,000 Question" in national interest. As the winner of the greatest sum ever given awav in radio or tv Barney and the program would have received page-one nublicitv la 6:00 P. M. 12 Mid.
