on KTVV, Channel 36. Ford has accepted the post of press secretary to Gov. Bill Clements, and "Clements' gain Is 'Capital Eye's loss," said series' producer Winston Bode. In this week's show, Ford and Bode will talk with House Speaker Bill Clayton. Of the four new series premlerlng tonight "Hello, Larry" and "Sweepstakes" on NBC; "The Dukes of Hazzard" on CBS) I was able to preview only one, and it's no winner.

I hope it doesn't prove to be the pick of tonight's litter. "The Dukes of Hazzard" is one of those good ol' boy kind of shows the people at CBS are saying it's "in the tradition of movies like 'Gator' and 'Smokey and the Bandit'" so that should give you some idea of what they're aiming for, if not what they actually achieve. John Schneider and Tom Wopat star as cousins Bo and Luke Duke, two well-groomed, Hollywood-handsome lads who just love racing their cars around the dirt roads and highways of Hazzard County making the Sheriff (James Best) furious, and otherwise getting up to hijinks. They're occasionally restrained by their Uncle Jesse (Denver Pyle) and abetted by their sexy cousin Daisy (Catherine Bach). (There are no fathers, mothers, sisters or aunts in this family.) Off-screen, Waylon Jennings elaborates their adventures by singing and talking country ballad style, which is effective when he's giving information, but ridiculous when he comments on the action.

this fun?" he asks, just before a com- merclal break and no, it's not.) It tries real hard to be fun, does "The Dukes of Hazzard" those boys are forever laughing or letting out a rebel yell as they think up some new mischief to fox those corrupt but stupid men who hold the legal and political reins in Hazzard County. It tries so hard that their actions are not only unbelievable, but joyless. And it goes on much too long. Whereas a half-hour comedy might have been bearable, over the course of an hour the plot simply wears itself out, going from silly to tiresome. Dukes of Hazzard" airs at 8 on KTBC, Channel 7.) Lisa Tuttle his last appearance as pan "Panorama 90," KLRN-TV's local art and entertainment program, tonight features rehearsal scenes from James Baldwin's "Amen Corner," performed by the Kaaumba Players of Chicago in San Antonio's Carver Cultural Center.
