$tout RADIO-TV i APOLLO'S SUMMER LOOK, by Kathleen Conlon; Dodd, Mead Company, New York; 253 $4.50. This is another first-person novel that explores a youthful emotional experience. This time the main character is a twenty year old girl and the locale is a British seaside resort. Rose, an art student wait-ressing during a Summer vacation, is quite ready, in fact eager, to become involved in a love affair. The man she chooses is down from London on business.

He is suave, forty, and married. To Rose, at first, he is a romantic adventure, someone to alleviate the tedium of the job and make the Summer a memorable one. She is unprepared for the desolation she feels when he goes home for a week-end and for the jealousy when his wife joins him for a few days later in the season. The end of the Summer finds them unable to end their relationship. She goes back to her classes, he to his wife and sons, but they devise ways to meet for an occasional week-end.

Finally, pressured by Rosie, he leaves his wife to live with her. But they each resent what they are giving up she, the fun of her student days, and he the stability of wife and family. What starts as an almost casual encounter, ends as a shattering experience as the affair comes to an abrupt termination after an ugly scene. It will be, for Rose, a long and painful convalescence. This is a book which will have more appeal for women readers than for men.

PEARL SCHIFF. TO FIND A MAN, by S. J. Wilton; The Viking Prttt, New Yorks J8S S. J.

Wilson (not to be confused with Sloan Wilson) has created in this first-person novel the delightful eighteen-year-old Andrew Z. Greenstone. Tall, gawky, intelligent, with a headful of dreams of some yet undetermined future greatness that will cause statues to be erected in his memory in the park where he played as a child, Andy has no idea that others also see him in the same idealized light. To relatives and family friends he is the best of the younger generation, the boy they would have wished for a son. Until that is he sets out to perform that all-important mission for his friend Rosalind Berk.

Rosalind, who, from the time they were in kindergarten together, always played the princess while Andrew was her willing train bearer, now commissions him to find a man who can help her friend out of an illegitimate pregnancy. The "friend," of course, as Andy immediately surmises, is Rosalind herself. When Andy sets out to find an abortionist, the people he questions also read a personal involvement into his request for help for an anonymous friend. Before it is over Andy is as deeply involved as if, indeed, he were the father of the unborn child. His own reactions and those of the people who expected better of him, including his girl friend Cecily, are treated with wry humor in a style that is simultaneously funny and sentimental.

When the crisis is finally resolved, Rosalind emerges Evening his standing. He has returned to the Coast and Miss Lincoln to New York. Elizabeth Montgomery will change husbands in "Bewitched" next season. Dick York asked out after five seasons and Dick Sargent, once of "Broadside" and the "Tammy Grimes Show," has been named to replace him. NEW PROGRAMMING ABC estimates it will need hours of new programming to plug up its weak spots in next year's schedule.

Four hours have already been filled by the new 90-minute "Movie of the Week," the one-hour Harold Robbins serial, "The a new variety spread, "Jimmy Durante Presents the enn and a situation comedy, "The Courtship of i e's Fat her," which leaves 3V2 hours to go. CBS expects to button up its new schedule by Feb. 15, which would be the earliest in history. Wtih franchise renewal time at hand, some of our local stations are becoming more public service-minded. WBZ-TV (Ch.

4) has added two major public affairs series to its Sunday schedule starting Feb. 2: "30 Minutes from Now," a journal of film essays, investigative reports, commentary and interviews, with Tom Ellis and Pat Collins, 6:30 to and "The Wavemakers," a forum for frank discussion of issues by student editors and college leaders, hosted by Tufts' associate dean Peter Krough, 7 to 7:30. WNAC-TV (Ch. 7) has preempted an hour of prime time, 9 to 10, on Monday, Feb. 9, for a call-in program on the tax rebellion, titled "Tax-In." With Bill Brooks as anchor Gov.

Francis Sargent and Boston Mayor White Kevin White will be on the panel, an- By PERCY SHAIN Globe Television Critic SURVEYING THE TV SCENE NBC is trying a unique ploy with "Star Trek," a sort of "trial separation" before it buries the sturdy science fiction show for good. For eight weeks, between April and June, it will disappear from the scene while the network fills its Friday night spot with new adventures of "The Saint." Then it will return for a Summer of reruns in the niche now occupied by Jerry Lewis. Lewis also vanishes in April, but for a two-month period NBC plans to run a series of specials in that hour. It's a strange way indeed to run a schedule. Maybe the network is doing it to test how hard the public will screech at this "temporary" loss.

"Name of the Game" has been given a second-season renewal and the three rotating stars, Gene Barry, Tony Franciosa and Bob Stack remain intact. But there will be some producing changes and there is more than a slight likelihood that it will be moved from its current spot of on Fridays. Chet Huntley denies he had any sort of a rift with Robert Northsfield, who is leaving his post after four years as executive producer of the "Huntley-Brinkley Report." "I just wanted to do something less strenuous," said Northsfield, whose new assignment is to produce specials for NBC. WGBH-TV (Ch. 2) is looking for a replacement for Otis Young, the co-star of "The Outcasts," who walked off the set while filming a play here opposite Abbey Lincoln, co-star with Sidney Poitier in "For Love of Ivy." He claimed his role in the drama, "Wine in the Wilderness," was not important enough for an actor of swering questions from the studio audience and from callers.

APRIL SPECIALS Some interesting specials are coming up in April. Pet-ula Clark will do her second musical, "Portrait of Petula," April 7 on NBC; Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore will be reunited for a program of music, dance and comedy titled "Dick Van Dyke and the Other Woman," April 13, on CBS; and the long-awaited dramatized Broadway version of Edgar Lee Masters' "Spoon River Anthology" has been set for April 21 by CBS, but cut from 90 minutes to an hour. Jason Ro-bards, Charles Aidman, Joyce Van Patten and Jennifer West are starred. Nielsen ratings for the week ending Jan. 19 are distinguished chiefly for the whopping score achieved by the "Bob Hope Christmas Show," at 38.5 the highest of any show special or regularly scheduled garnered this year.

It pulled NBC to another Nielsen win, with 21.3 as against 20.9 for CBS and 15.1 for ABC. "Laugh-In" at 32.0 and "Family Affair" at 30.7 rounded out the Big 3. Only other special in the top 20 was NBC's "Comedy Is King II," which tied for seventh a rarity for a sequel. The only movie on the list of leaders was the CBS Friday offering, "Four for Texas," which tied for 13th Reviews in brief: "Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour" (Ch. 5) This premiere lacked spark and variety, ladling out corn in liberal doses.

"Arctic Odyssey: The David Humphreys Polar Expedition" (Ch. 4) The anti-climactic record of a flop.

The owner of the automotive and housewares store breathed a long sigh of relief Wednesday when he saw the truck lumbering through the snow toward his door. His customers were happy, too, for the truck, they believed, carried 100 sets of badly needed tire chains. There is almost three feet of snow on the ground of this small community.

We have, in fact, suppressed its manifestations. All are imbued with irresponsibility." He then proceeds to catalogue many demoralizing and morally blighting evils.

To his specifications may be added the alarming rampancy of and increase in crime, including what is euphemistically called "juvenile delinquency," and the appalling ravages of war with the establishment of lasting peace as distant as ever. To these I should add the cruel and debasing character of much of man's treatment of animals in particular their torture by merciless men and women in their experimental laboratories. It is late, lamentably so, but perhaps not too late to reverse the ominous trend of things which is reacting so calamitously upon our social order. On a memorable occasion Peter asked of Jesus, "To whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life." Let us turn to this transcendent gospel and straightway and with dedication seriously adopt its guidance for the moral and spiritual salvation of society. Progressive discovery of certain long hidden secrets of nature and harnessing the awesome power thereby made available for our use has led to the development of a technology which by its application has given us the materialistic and scientific fabric of our civilization.

As a result, men were inspired with a high-pitched expectation of a regenerated human society. In its aftermath, however, has come the tragic collapse of all these great hopes and confident expectations, leaving men in a state of bitter disillusionment, grievous malaise and pathological forebodings. One recoils in dismay at this situation and the calamitous evils it is breeding. What Herbert Spencer once characterized as an era of "re-barbariza-tion" has set in, indeed its ominous symptoms and social ravages were long apparent. In a challenging book written some years ago, "Man the Unknown," the author, Dr.
