I The Boston GIot Friday, February 8, 1874 55 TELEVISION RADIO 'Apple's Way' is like a breath of fresh air NIGHT WATCH PERCY SHAIN FRIDAY MORNING ter than its half-brother, "The Waltons." Certainly" it is the best show of the new season. 1:00 Father Knows Best Flintstones American heiress and an Argentine cowboy Not for Women Only 56 5 6 5 6 6:00 News English Through TV 6:15 for wisecracks instead of real, emerging human beings. They're wise beyond their years and glib beyond their capacities. But it has two great assets in Estker Rolle and John Amos as the sensible, likable parents and such an abundance of good cheer in adversity that they have to be winners in your heart, even though they are losers every-" where else. You certainly will be jolted by some of the lines.

Before you've known the family for two minutes you hear them joking1 about the fact that Mama' was pregnant when she got married.

The best thing about the show, aside from the writing, is the casting of Ronny Cox and Lee McCain, relatively unfamiliar faces, as the attractive parents of a brood of four typical youngsters (plus three dogs, a cat and a snake.) They fit together well, and the idea behind the show Apple's return from a high-powered Los Angeles job to the Iowa soil he grew up on offers all sorts of interesting variants. This show could be bet Paul Benzaquin APENTHOUSSAUANTlO0 11:00 Electric Company 2-1 1 Wizard of Odds 4-10 Big Valley 5 Split Second 6 Dick Van Dyke 7 Gambit 12 Not for Women Only Dialing for Dollars 9:30 Sunrise Semester 12 6:45 "Daily Almanac 4 News 6 Good Times, Ch. 7 It's all on the table in this new sitcom. They tell it like it is, man, and nobody minces words. When you live in a ghetto and there's no money coming in, with five mouths to feed, there's no room for buttering up the realities.

"Good Times," the newest Lear-Yorkin creation which makes its bow on CBS tonight (Ch. 7 at 8:30) has some flaws. Its humor is sometimes forced.

In the best sense of the word, it's homely and homey down-to-earth stuff with a bit of rustic flavor about people with a talent for living who have solid values which they believe in enough to fight for. This trait is sorely tried in the opening episode, "The Tree," to be aired Sunday night on CBS on Ch. 7), for George Apple, the father of the family, gets involved in a hassle about saving the Apple tree his forbears planted 150 years ago and has to spend the night in the tree to prevent its destruction to make way for a motel development The story is colorfully developed, with touches reminiscent of the dear old Frank Capra movies. Apple is a personable fellow, but can get his back up over principles, and he knows how to sway a crowd. Since the "bad guys" in this impasse are the architectural firm he works for, it presents a ticklish situation, which he handles very adeptly after delivering a speech about the "good life" that is like 4-10 6 7-12 9 4-10 5 6 7-12.

You, Me and Joe. 4-10 Midnight Special The Buick is called Apollo.

And it's the first Bukk in years to offer a 6-cyIinder engine. The reasons for it are obvious. But there's more to Apollo than simply an economical power plant This is a Buick, remember. And as such, it offers a number of advantages over many other small cars. It's quiet Apollo is what you might expect of a Buick.

Much attention is paid to the suppression of On all Apollo models, sound deadeners are applied to the roof panel, under front and'rear seat floors, to the outer door panels, to wheelhouses, and to the passenger compartment floor.

But it's also a Buick. Apollo's 6-cylinder engine will help you cope with the gasoline situation. But just as important especially for people who've always driven big cars is that Apollo is an impressive car to own and drive. Apollo is a quiet, smooth-riding, comfortable, well appointed.car.

And there's a very real measure of prestige in owning one because it is a Buick. And to help suppress noise and vibrations, rubber isolation mounts are used between the body and the frame. When all is said and done, Apollo simply doesn't sound like a small car. 8:00 Washington Week 2-11-44 Sanford and Son 4-10 'Lamont and Rollo plan double date, sans Fred i Brady Bunch 5-6-9 Peter discovers he has a dou- i ble at school Dirty Sally 7 Pike meets his match in i horse-trading Image 12 i Hockey 56 N.E.

It's gentle. Sports car lovers will find Apollo's ride too soft. And that's just the way we want it. Because Apollo was designed for comfort, not for competition. We did it with coil springs up front, multi-leaf springs in the reareach selected by Buick engineers for the way each Apollo is equipped.

It's impressive inside. Apollo's interior is perhaps its greatest asset. There's a lot more "Buick" in it than there is "small Thick carpeting is standard. So is an instrument panel with wood-grain vinyl accents. So are front and rear armrests and ashtrays.
