SHULL For benefit of the stay-at-homes and those race fans who like to reconfirm that they saw what they saw, the local TV stations will have three hours of race highlights in their prime-time schedules tonight. As usual, the race itself had a video blackout In Indiana. It's been 18 years since local residents were able to see the 500-Mile Race on TV here. But that doesn't stop the four local stations from film were seeing what they saw at the same time as the home-viewing audience.

But Eileen boo-booed a couple times on things which demonstrated she still has a way to go before achieving a sublime state of Hoosierness. For one thing, Eileen, Jerome Kern not Peru's Cole Porter wrote the music for Showboat." The two composers' works are easy to tell apart. If a song has a touch of schmaltz about it, it's Kern's. If It has style, flair and sophistication, it's Porter's. Also, the late William Herschell, of The News, wrote "Ain't God Good To Indiana?" Not, James Whitcomb Riley.

Now, Eileen, repeat 100 times: Paul Dresser wrote "Banks of the Wabash" and Jimmy Hanley wrote "Back Home Again in Indiana." ing the action, and then engaging in a film-processing derby to see who can get on the air with a quickest and most. Here's the schedule for the race recaps on local TV tonight: WTTV 9- 10. WFBM-TV 10- ll.WLW -I WISH-TV Of course, the rest of the country annually has an opportunity to see the race via closed-circuit-theater TV, produced by MCA-TV on a long-term contract with the Tough Talk f.lpW 'i i ii It says that with all the hot dog and souvenir stands around here, this must be some historical site." Shull I. Motor Speedway. This year, the closed-circuit show was fed to 170 theaters and auditoriums in this country, by special cable hook-up to Mexico and Central America, and to some locations in Canada.

Again, the MCA-TV coverage was sent by Lani Bird satellite live to Japan and Australia. The 500-Mile Race was the first event to be delivered by Australia's new ground receiving station, even though it did a rive there at 2 a.m. All of the networks have had resident sages who offer commentary as part of the early evening news, but ABC this week has added another dimension guest experts who lay it on the line about their favorite subject. Monday night, for example, columnist James Fitzpatrick used the strongest possible language in giving his opinion of student rioters and college administrators who condone them. It was refreshing.

Too long, television has been a paradox. On the entertainment side, TV feels we need a laughing machine to tell us what is funny on a comedy show and a banging timpani drum to tell us what is drama. But in news and public affairs, the style has been to dump the items on us like a bushel of unshucked oysters and let us dig our own pearls. Not so anymore. Premiere Performance National Teleproductions, the newly-formed Indianapolis-based independent TV producing firm, will get its first chance to show its stuff July 20 when it feeds a statewide network with coverage of the Miss Indiana pageant of the Miss America contest from Michigan City.

For the first time in recent years, the show wasn't transmitted by satellite to England and Europe. What originally was a 250-mile blackout of the race has shrunk considerably in recent years. This year, theater outlets for.the show were lined around the Indiana borders in Chicago, Louisville and Cincinnati. This was the fifth year for the theater telecast and the present MCA contract has two more years to go. BACK WHEN WE HAD TELECASTS The race was telecast here on WFBM-TV in 1949 and 1950, more by fluke than by design.

A contract for broadcast rights (which in those days meant radio) had been signed at the end of World War II. In the spring of 1949, WFBM-TV was preparing to go on the air here with the city's first TV station. After one thing and another, someone read the fine print in the contract, and WFBM-TV went on the air with four box Brownies at the Speedway covering the race. The station repeated the performance the following year, but that brought commercial telecasting of the race in Indianapolis to an end. Since then, contracts for commercial broadcasts of the race have been spelled out R-A-D-I-O.
