SHULL THE GAME IS SAME EVERYWHERE One of his favorite off-stage stories is on the universal reaction to one of his early routines how they played street football in his old neighborhood. You know, the bit: The quarterback tells the end to go deep down the center stripe then cut out behind the black Chevy? Perhaps it's a sign of the. times' that, for con- -temporary America the author who can draw up the vivid illusions of typipal American boyhood is a stand-up comedian who doesn't Write and who bases his verbal tales on life in a Negro neighborhood in, '') His name, ofl course, is Bill Cosby and his game is universal appeal.

Last night he had his first very own TV show, a special ron NBC. And aside from a couple of musical-dance bridges, 'It was his show all the way. Somewhere along the course of the hour, everyone in Cosby said a Georgia farmer once came up to him and told him that's exactly how it was when he was a boy, only instead of a Philadelphia street it was a cow pasture, and instead of cutting behind a car, the pass receiver would fade out around the third cow platter. For his show last night, Cosby had only two guests, First there was a 13-year-old deadpan named Eddie Hunley, an authority on street football from Cosby old neighborhood, Then there was 16-year-old Janice Robinson, an accomplished musician who. chose the trombone from among her repertoire of instruments and played "A Taste of Honey" with a style Kthe audience naa to personally, identify with at least one of the monologues.

Cosby deals In outrageous and grotesque mimicry as he tells his tales, but the underlying facts are there and i they ring true. that must have made. Herb Alpert -envious. In addition to his story telling, including the tonsils In his childhood gang, Fat Albert was story which he acted out with props and costume, Cosby And in dis age of conformity, won't you fuzz be surprised when eventually everybody's fingerprints turn out identical!" also talked his way through a song and danced a little. As a singer and dancer, he remains the nation's best teller of amusing tales.

afraid to go to the Frankenstein movie. And in the game of "buck-buck," Fat Albert was the secret weapon of Cosby's gang. You knew a Fat Albert, didn't you? Or how about the deceitful doctor who oromised the bovs all the ice cream thev Cosby had a fine show last night and if there was a fault Shull it was on the part of NBC in scheduling it in the time slot normally occupied by "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In." To an audience conditioned to the frantic pace of Rowan and Martin, Cosby's leisurely pace seemed slow. Also, it was on at 8 p.m.. early enough for millions of children, with their tonsils and adenoids still intact, to see and hear Now that Cosby has killed the ice cream bit for all time, could eat if they'd be good patients in having their, tonsils removed? The hook, of course, being that their throats were too sore to eat anything, even much loved ice cream.

Or his. monologue concerning his family, of how he wanted sons and got daughters instead. And of the angelic first-born as opposed to the devilish second-born. He gave the newborn babies voices, putting words in their mouths as he envisioned their personalities. Who hasn't seen the angel and the devil in their own newborns' faces? AH these things, Cosby included in his show.

And he's much aware of how they reach out and titillate the recollections of his audience. what new outrageous lie do you suppose doctors will tell :00 Match Garni (() Secret Storm (C) Mike Douglas Popeye (0 4:15 (0 4:30 Pat Boone Show Early Show (0 j45 JO "Tumbleweed" :00 The fllntslones 5:15 :30 Hews (C) Man From 4S UNCIKQ :00 Newt(C) McHale'j Navy :30 Huntley- Waller Cronkite Lucy Perry Mason Brlnkley(C) (C) :00 Newt(C) Newi(C) Cilligan's 7:15 bland (0 :30 I Dream of Daktari (C) Garrbon's Truth or Come- MS Jeannie (C) Gorillas (0 quencet(Q :00 Jerry lewis (C) Hazel (C) 8:30 Red Skelton (C) It Takes A Divorce Court 45 Thief (C) (C) :00 Tuesday Night Merv Griffin 9:15 Movie (0 (Q :30 "Second Time Battle of N.Y.P.D.
