Page 22 DAILY INTELLIGENCER Tuesday, August 9, 1977 It Happened last Night Duke: Glenn Ford's worth it NEW "YORK U-lenn Ford and his beautiful hazel-eyed fiancee, i a Hayward (the former Wilhelmina model), discussed their wedding but while there was love light in their eyes there was jet lag in their limbs. "Wherever we are Sept. 10, that's where we'll be married," announced the soon-to-be ex-bachelor. They'd come from London, gone to the Plaza Oyster Bar, Cynthia wearing the diamond crucifix, and pear- shaped ring. "I may be in Calgary a i a a -Marlon Brando and I share the boy," Glenn said.

"My dad, my grandfather, got married on that date, Sept. 10." How old's the bride-to-be? I asked. "Thirty," he said, low-voiced. "Me? They've been printing that I'm 61. You know I'm only 54.

Harry Conn got the idea of making me older than I am to play opposite older actresses." Cynthia was nice, too, 5-8, slender, brown-haired, personable. Ford, twice married, said, "Cynthia and I've been together, very close, for three years. We've been around the world 9, 10 times." Besides being in "Superman," he's commited to Sir Lew Grade's TV series, "The Day Havoc Struck." "Do you know," he asked, "that 'Superman' is my 200th picture? Counting TV." John Wayne's probably done 200. Glenn loves Duke. He likes Brando.

He's never criticized another actor. "Tough enough in our business i a i a actor knocking you." Cynthia spoke right up. Duke Wayne sent her a message when they got engaged. It said, "Take 'care of him. He's worth i Jerry Lewis' Labor Day telethon is coming along with Nureyev, the Rockettes and the Moysiev and Canadian National Ballets scheduled Grrowl!

"Every 12 years you get an extra day off!" ABC decides to keep 'Soap' Famous Labels Womens Apparel At Discount Prices Raggedy Ann to OFF RETAIL 30 E. Slate Doylestown 345-8805 NEW YORK (UPI) ABC won't drop the controversial "Soap" comedy from its fall schedule, but the network is sending the first two pieces to the laundry. "Soap" is a nighttime comedy soap opera and, as shown to television critics and ABC affiliates this summer, if you deleted all sexual references you'd come close to a half-hour of zero television. The network came in for a lot of flack on "Soap," so much that the top brass called a special closed- circuit meeting to smooth down ruffled affiliates. Fred Silverman, ABC president- entertainment, explained in detail Sonny, Cher coming to fair Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr.

perform tonight at the Allentown Fair, which runs through Saturday with top-name entertainers. On Wednesday, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and The Keane Brothers will perform. On Thursday, Sonny and Cher are on stage. The Osmonds with Donny and Marie will headline the show Friday and Saturday nights. The fair also includes free con- cers, a farmerama theater, games rides and a million dollar midway Grounds admission is For more concert information call 433-7541.

to the affiliates how some of the suggestive, not to mention explicit, elements in the first two half-hour segments settle down later in the run into more traditional topics for television. Taking a line from an old Hollywood morality copout, he added: "One point I want to underscore is that no character in 'Soap' is ever rewarded for immoral behavior. And, in the final analysis, there will always be retribution for such behavior. This socially redeeming aspect of 'Soap' becomes clear as the story unfolds from week to week." Al Schneider, ABC vice president who oversees the red pencil crew in standards and practices, told the affiliates network officials have "elected to re-shoot parts of the two pilot episodes" and have "required changes including entire sections and have worked closely with the producers and writers" to avoid "needless, gratuitous, offensive Trouble is, one man's "gratuitous, offensive material" is another man's laugh of the week. Well, as Fred Silverman suggests, let's wait to see the final product.

There can be no such respite for NBC's "The Kallikaks," a summer -series that makes "Hee-Haw" look The Kallikak family has "retired" from coal mining in Appalachia to Nowhere, where pa Jasper (David Huddleston) sells no-name gasoline at a two-pump gas station and tries to operate as a shrewd country bumpkin, generally swindling only himself. His family includes wife Venus (Edie McClurg), who sounds like Dodie Goodman and dresses like a color-blind gypsy; daughter Bobbi Lou (Buddy Ebsen's daughter Bonnie), blonde, shapely and and sweetly stupid; and little brother Junior (Patrick J. Petersen), the only member of the family with an ounce of brains. There also is a good-natured German oaf who does all the work at the gas station, played by Peter Palmer, who did the title role in "L'il Abner'' on stage and screen. 3RD GIANT WEEK! TUES.
