Count Roberto (Ivan Desny) and a henchman, Lorenzo (Venan-tini), and takes the paintings to Annette and her cousin, Bruno (Castelnuovo), with the suggestion that the backing of her painting may be an original by a famous artist Annette laughs at his idea, but he decides to take it to an expert just to be sure. In Part Two (Oct.7), Tommy learns that his suspicions were true and that the art expert is the aunt of Count Roberto, who locks Tommy, Annette and Bruno in a dungeon and threatens them with death unless they reveal the whereabouts of the painting. MEN AGAINST DEATH NBC cameras focus on Rescue Company One in actual on-the-scene operations for "Fire Rescue," a dramatic film record of this trouble-shooting unit of New York City's Fire Department.

I his breath-taker will be presented on Cha nnel 40's Show of the Week series at 10 p. m. tomorrow.

Out of the hills comes a lovely dish with a drawl (Tina Louise), who quickly makes a hit with the neighboring males and stops doing any work. Miss Louise is an eyeful, but Walter Brennan Is the best part of the show. GE TRUE (9:30 p. Channel 12) (Premiere.) "Circle of Death." Jack Webb's new scries begins with a bomb plot and comes off okay. A Navy doctor in World War 2 is forced to take a live shell out of a Marine's hip on a moving ship, and the slightest movement may blow everybody to bits.

Chunky William Conrad Is the doc and he turns in a good, controlled performance. The story could have gotten way out of hand, but some restraint is used. SHOW OF ITIE WEEK (10 p. Channel 40) "Fire Rescue." An exciting documentary on the Fire Department's trouble shooters which can be compared favorably to last year's Police Emergency Show. Tho NBC crew followed New York Rescue Company No.

1 on its rounds and filmed on-the-spot action. The most thrilling sequences show the company performing its variety of specialized functions at a number of fires, one of which culminates in the death of a fireman. There is very little feeling for the individual fireman, but considerable for their duty. One quibble: perhaps too much time is spent watching the company (aware of the camera) preparing dinner, complete with wisecracks at the firehouse.

Channel 12) "The Counterfeit of It." Most of this original play by Lee Hays takes a convincing and enlightening look at a Negro boy's resentment against his white schoolmates, who treat him with excessive and selfconscious courtesy. The crisis that erupts seems a little contrived, but the essence of the tale rings true.

CAMERA THREE (11 a. Channel 12) "Fathers and Sons." Ivan Turgcnev's 100-year-old novel on the inevitable gaps of understanding between fathers and sons differ in fact rather than in substance from the problems faced today. The excerpts dramatized here are rich In Czarist Russian allusions, but you'll recognize the beatnik in nihilist Bazarov very soon. TWENTIETH CENTURY (6 p. m-, Channel 12) "Hungary Today." (Repeat.) This 1961 documentary provides a significant look at Hungary, five years after the rebellion.

Though the 20th Century crew did not have complete freedom, they were allowed to take their film out of the country without any censorship. Whatever the limitations, they succeeded in drawing a portrait of a country completely dominated by Russia, where the spirit of revolt has been undoubtedly permanently crushed. ED SULLIVAN (8 p. Channel 12) Eddie Fisher sings (a symbolic?) "Back in Your Own Backyard" and "The Sweetest Sounds." Jack Carter and Bill Dana come on for comedy routines; Joya Sherrfll solos to "Katusha," the song that made a rumpus during her Moscow Benny Goodman tour; AI Hirt and his combo play "Poor Butterfly" and also "Malaguena" for a group of dancers; and New York Yankee baseball stars Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford talk about the pennant THE REAL McCOYS (9 p.

Will Webb's program formula be successful? Who can say? Webb remembers an incident that occurred 1 not too many years ago, when be was trying to get a job in a high-powered movie mogul's production of the moment. Webb cited his credits, including the then-new radio show Dragnet, which had just gone on the air. The Hollywood movie man was not impressed. In fact, he was paternalistic. He had heard the show and concluded it a ready-made failure.

Said he, trying to be helpful, "Maybe if you got rid of all those codes and abbreviations, but as it is. He shook his head. The codes and abbreviations were bits of fact that made up an impressive programing truth.

Annette and Tommy Dirk will star with Italian actors Nino Castelnuovo and Venantino Ven-antinl in the teleplay, which was filmed on location in Florence. In Part One, (tomorrow) architectural student Tommy Carpenter (Kirk) meets another American art student, Annette Alliotto (Annette), who spurns his requests for a date until he roes to an art store and buys one of her paintings.

He realizes that he has purchased more than he bargained for when two art thieves chase him through the streets and dump him into a large fountain. Jack Webb Just beneath the cover of each script of Jack Webb's new television series, there is a quotation from Daniel Webster. "There is nothing so powerful as truth and often nothing so strange." Webb's new series premieres on CBS and Channel 12 from 9:30 to 10 p.m. tomorrow (Sunday). First episode is called "Circle of Death," on the series which is titled GE True.

Webster's quotation is the premise of Webb's series-dramatized true stories. The quotation also helps explain Webb's return to program production for television. He could remain comfortably retired on the money he made as one of the medium's pioneer stars. Retirement, however, found him watching television, and he discovered that the programs that most stimulated his interest were in the area of news and public affairs information shows based on truth and fact Entertainment with stories based on fact and realism were what made up the Dragnet series on radio and television and made Webb a television king. Webb's new series is an anthology of factual dramas based on accounts of true adventure, heroism, American patriotism.
