No Obliration) '(NBC) "Adam-12" By William Glover NEW YORK (AP) Dorothy Collins got the role, her first shot at Broadway acclaim, with a left-handed compliment that might have fazed a less hardy spirit. "After I finished the audition," she recalls, "producer Hal Prince told me, 'I've hated you for years, but you're not itsy-poo at all." Being a cheerful type, the blonde singer accepts without quiver such occasional reminders of the ambiguous image she achieved as television's "Hit Parade" girl. From 1950 through '57 she relentlessly chirped through the weekly assortment of tunes in momentary popular esteem. Miss Collins manifests endless Pollyanna affability in conversation, tempered with enough whimsical zest to neutralize cloying. A bit fuller-faced than of yore, but attractively graceful, the entertainer from Windsor, is at age 44 having her initial Broadway workout in the musical "Follies," due at the Winter Garden on April 4 after a tryout tour.

Not Aggressive "I never was aggressive career-wise until I got fired," she refers back to the sing-sing-sing phase. "Then I did the "Wizard of Oz" in St. Louis stock, and the stage is a love affair that will never end." Miss Collins claims that in the years since, she has traveled the grass roots circuits in just about every musical from "Showboat' to "My Fair Lady," with extended stands, too, on television. Her first public appearance was at 11 in a number entitled "I'm Just an In-Bewteen." After winning five watches and some cups on a radio "Children's Hour" in Windsor, a talent-alert announcer cued her to Chicago. There she was auditioned by Raymond Scott.

At 13 she became a Scott pupil. He piloted her career, changed her "I or YOUR INSURANCE H6ENT TONIGHT WEST i SCREEN i i siittwi iff 5iT Time Channel Program 6:000...

He's Scott Glenn, playing a loser who has been acquitted by Ironside (Raymond Burr) of some nasty killings. Now, in a Latin-American country, he's jailed again, and Ironside dispatches two operatives (Barbara Anderson and Don Galloway) to see if maybe he made a mistake.

Barbara is convinced he's innocent of this charge, too, and tries to prove it.
