11:30 p.m. Miss O'Connor says, "a patient was diagnosed and treated for tetanus. But the way they made the test was such that the tetanus germs could have been floating around in the air as well as in the patient's blood stream. Pretty painful when he might have had only a strep throat." 2: Basal metabolism tests have been administered on television in ways which would not be tolerated in a genuine hospital. The conditions for these tests must be carefully controlled, yet television has shown a basal metabolism much to learn.

In fact, she says, some of the techniques they use could have killed rather than cured. Specifically, she cites these infractions of basic laboratory techniques: 1. Television doctors and their staffs often overlook the proper sterile technique. They neglect to swab a patient's arm before drawing blood or forget to flame a flask in which a test culture will be grown. "In one Ben Casey episode," test given a patient shortly after eating or exercising.

"Something like this occurred on a Dr. Kildare program," Miss O'Connor says. "Even a normal patient would have been diagnosed as hyperthyroid, after the delay shown in the program and treatment for that condition would have gummed up his metabolism pretty thoroughly." 3. Television doctors, perhaps because they only have 60 minutes to effect their cures, never wait long enough for the results of lab tests. "Blood typing for an emergency transfusion," the medical technologist says, "was accomplished within minutes on a recent Ben Casey program.

Without allowing more time for precise crossmatching of blood type and its various elements, the transfused blood will clump." (Clumping can be fatal.) Along the same lines, Miss O'Connor says Jim and Ben don't allow enough time for bacteria cultures to grow before they prescribe an antibiotic. The result, she says, is that they would frequently be prescribing the wrong antibiotic. 4. The two television doctors frequently use poor technique in transferring blood from a syringe to a test tube. They have been caught squirting the blood, a method which can cause a condition known as hemolysis.

And hemolysis interferes with precise testing. So you'd better be suspicious of Kildare and Casey and television's other men in white (and black). Take everything they do with a grain of NaCl. 10:30 12:00 1:00 1:30 3:30 3:30 5:00 7:00 8:00 11:20 11:30 11:30 11:30 11:30 a.m. Noon p.m.

As this is written filming is still going on and the events to be shown are not definite, because of the 90-minute time limit of the show. However, it appears unlikely that Jack Barden of Port Huron will be shown winning his gold medal in a light heavyweight wrestling match.

Events which ABC-TV network announced may be included in the telecast did not include "wrestling. The network said it planned to film track' and field events, a number of swimming events, diving and gymnastics. It said other events that may be included are water polo, fencing, soccer, basketball, volley cycling and boxing. Tricked Into Driving Holdup Getaway Car Albert Salmi and Rip Torn play an unlikely pair of hoodlums from the Florida swamps who trick Line Case into helping them in an armed robbery attempt, in "Who Will Cheer My Bonny Bride?" on Route 66 at 8:30 p.m. Friday on Channel 2.

Rip Torn starred in both the Broadway and film versions of Tennessee Williams' Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Sweet Bird of Youth." He also starred opposite Ingrid Bergman in "24 Hours in a Woman's Life," a 90-minute special on the CBS Television Network. Albert Salmi is regarded as one of the most versatile character actors in television. Hitchhiking to a service station to get gas for his stalled sports car, series star Glenn Corbett, as Line Case, is given a lift by Alvah Clayhorne, played by Torn, and his companion, Charley Breadloaf, played by Salmi. At their request, Line agrees to take the wheel. His surprise at being so completely trusted vanishes when Alvah and Charley try to hold up a motel and force him to drive the getaway car.

Medical experts say they are fuzzy physicians. A special committee of the American Society of Medical Technologists has been studying Drs. Kildare and Casey carefully. The aim was to see if television, was accurately portraying the work of medical technologists, the men and women who assist doctors in many ways.

And Elizabeth O'Connor, a Chicago medical technologist, reports that the verdict is that Dr. Kildare and Ben Casey have Himmler's Aide Target On SE True A two-part drama about two members of the Free Czech Army assigned to assassinate "hangman" Reinhard Heydrich, cruel Nazi "protector of Czechoslovakia" and second in command to Heinrich Himmler as head of the dreaded German Gestapo, will be presented on GE True in two parts, from 9:30 to 10 p.m. Sunday, May 5, and Sunday, May 12, on Channel 2. In the drama, titled "Heydrich," the Czech sergeants, flown from England, are parachuted into their German-occupied homeland. They make contact with members of the Czech underground, then study Hey-drich's movements.

Finally they pick a Prague street corner, where the Gestapo chief's car customarily slows for a turn, as the spot from which they will machinegun Heydrich. Hillbillies Upsetting To Psychiatrist Jethro has a session with a Beverly Hills psychiatrist, touching off a chain reaction which results in psychoanalysis for the entire Clampett clan, on The Beverly Hillbillies at 9 p.m. Wednesday on Channel 2. The doctor is intrigued by his patients, but is ready for an examination himself when the Clampetts fail to fall into the classification set forth by Sig-mund Freud. Whisky Well Have Gun, Will Travel will repeat its tale of the drunk who drilled for water and struck whisky instead, at 9:30 p.m.
