"Then Baron Hilton, president of the Hilton chain, came to my dressing room to ask why I was leaving. VI spent an hour raving about how I didn't like what I was doing, my act was terrible and that I was quitting. Mr.

Hilton asked me one favor to go on stage the next show and repeat exactly what I told him. "That's what I did. I got laughs you wouldn't believe. I was on for almost an hour. Fortunately, Mr.

Hilton taped the performance. I ran it back, patched it up and it became a hit opening act. I quit for different reasons on stage every night. The audience loved it." Stevenson and Campbell, moreover, drew record breaking crowds. Mac sees himself as the classic man caught in the middle, a chronic victim of circumstances.

Lt. Col. Henry Blake in "M-A-S-H," Mac was confounded by the troops. Now as Mac Ferguson, he is at the mercy of a feckless family. "I chose to play Colonel Blake as Everyman instead of making him a buffoon," Stevenson said.

"I'm doing the same thing with Ferguson. He tries to cope. "The truth is, it doesn't take much acting on my part. Both Blake and Ferguson are really CARPET CLEANING Nick Gentile Chas. Davis Heating Air-Conditioning Service on all Commercial Residential 825-7545 or 691 -2624 Tjffl if Wr-i.

HOLLYWOOD (UPI) McLean Stevenson, who looks and suffers like the guy next door, doesn't work at this illusion. He is, indeed, the average schnook. At least that's how Mac sees himself.

Mac is back this month with his own half-hour series playing much the same character he did for two years on Doris Day's sitcom and for three years in the nice guy beset by problems with which he can almost cope. Stevenson himself, regularly faces almost insurmountable con- -frontations. Just getting "The McLean Stevenson Show" on the air was enough to give most actors a terminal case of the bends. It started with deceptive simplicity. After two years of Doris Day and a like sentence in "M-A-S-H," Mac wearied of ensemble acting in situa tion comedy He was prevailed upon to devote another year to "M-A-S-H" while NBC waited in the wing with a pair of hot producers ready to role an exciting variety show.

"Before we could get the variety show going, the producers split up and NBC dropped the project," said Mac during a rehearsal break at the network. His bassetlike face mirrored a long acquiescence to the fickleness of fortune. "I was left out in the cold. "But NBC still wanted me. They signed me to a one-year contract.

I did a variety special which might have worked into a weekly series. But it didn't pan out." The show, in fact, was panned on all sides. Mac unconsciously gave a perfect imitation of a man whose undergarments are too tight. "So I wound up doing guest shots. I made a nice weekly income on talk programs and game shows.

Last spring they brought this situation comedy to me." What they brought him was almost a mirror. Stevenson could see himself as Mac Ferguson, a midwestern hardware store owner assailed on all sides In his new series Mac is bedeviled by a snide old mother-in- law, a loving wife, an oversexed teen-age son, divorced daughter and two grandchildren. "We shot the first seven episodes," he said. "Then. NBC charged program executives.

The new guys didn't like one of the actors and replaced him with another. "They scrapped the first seven episodes and started from scratch. Do you know what that does to a cast! "Still, we weren't too upset. We though we had plenty of time Television In Review 'TTr SHOW TIMES I MM'1 I hours later, tied to the ambiance, the tempo, the electricity.

They start out at the same low salaries, looking for a break, willing to work for practically nothing, and they end up successful and holding out, with managers and agents and the whole thing.

That's the view of Pierre Cos-sette, who specializes in putting together television specials.

His latest effort is "Super Night At the Super Bowl," which CBS will broadcast from the Rose Bowl in Pasadena Jan. 8, p.m. Eastern time, on the eve of the sodden death World Series of football. Cossette organized the first Super Night-Super Bowl show last year, earned dandy ratings, and plans to expand the concept to Super Nights for events ranging from the 75th anniversary of Las Vegas to the U.S. Open Championship tennis competition at Forest Hills.

The Super Bowl show business and sports stars range from Lynda Carter as "Wonder Woman" to O.J. Simpson, with some big talent in between. Sammy Davis Elliott Gould and Andy Williams will host the show. John Wayne will be on hand to present the UPI Anijual Profes sional Football Awards (a job Henry Kissinger filled last year), and Angie Dickinson will appear as the first Woman sports reporter in a locker room full of naked athletes. "The show is aimed at the great, broad television audience," Cossette said in an interview.

"The Super Bowl is the largest single event on television and this is a television show tied NEW YEAR'S EVE at SHEPPARD HOUSE DINE and DANCE 8 till DINNER SERVED FROM 8 to 10 Before Rhett kissed Scarlett.

The minute we finish a show it's on the air. We're running as fast as we can. Nobody knows when or if we'll ever catch up." Happily, Stevenson is accustomed to adversity. He invaded the nightclub field last year as the opening act for Glen Campbell at the Las Vegas Hilton. He was as successful on stage as he had been in his variety special.

Mac's not a stand-up comic. He doesn't sing, dance or do card tricks. After a few performances things went so badly he informed the hotel he was quitting. "Backstage I said I was packing and leaving immediately." EXCLUSIVE like an arrow to that game 14 1 IN CAR HTRS ii -i I LNOISVE TE5TVE 691 Q117 HM NOW FIRST RUN TONITE AT 7 8. 9:30 P.M.
