PAGE TWELVE THE GETTYSBURG TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1975 Successor To Famed 'Penny Dreadfuls' To Come Tonight By JAY SHARBLTT AP Television Writer NEW YORK (AP) Around the turn of the century, cheap novels used to be calJed penny dreadfuls. Now we're in the era of $150,000 awfuJs. I refer to the arrival of "Khan!" on CBS-TV tonight. It is an hour-long series starring Khigh Dhiegh, well-known as a recurring villain in "Hawaii Five-0." Here, he's what CBS calls "a wily Asian private investigator" based in San Francisco's Chinatown. Tonight's plot is so tiny it belongs in a fortune cookie.

It concerns a black pro football quarterback who's almost killed in a car crash, is framed for the bludgeoning death of his girlfriend, and understandably goes on llhe laim while Khan checks into the case. CROOKED COACH All this disorder is caused by a crooked assistant football coach who, because the head coach has been ill of late, has been sending bad plays to the quarterback for purposes of causing a loss of key games. Okay, now the assistant coach is doing ithis because he's in hock to an evil gambling boss, who is profiting by the various losses. There's a backup quarterback who'd go along with the gag, but not the black, starting quarterback. So fte starter is framed.

Meanwhile, the plot thins and Che dialogue thickens. My favorite line is the gambler's warning to tlhe assistant ooach regarding ithe laser's worries about the frame: "You lay that on me as a bad play. Don't call it again. Check?" Joe K'app, a former pro quarterback who's suing the NFL and Roman Gabriel, still an active quarterback, portray football players in the show. Kapp does itt well and Gabriel, well, does it.

But Dhieigh is as stolid as the Stock of Gibraltar, exuding no Signs of life. He probably took his cue from the script and direction of this show amd maybe he should now. give it back right Delayed report: ABC's "Karen," starring Karen Valentine as a fresh-faced toiler for a citizen's group in Washington, D.C., premiered two Thursdays ago witih sort of a plot about opening up Congress.

Jobless In Philadelphia PHILADELPHIA (AP) Almost one out of every 10 workers in the Philadelphia area may be jobless in the worst unemployment wave to hit the region since Depression years. The state Employment Service released figures Thursday that showed unemployment in the five-county Philadelphia area plus three New Jersey counties rose to 8.2 per cent in December and is expected to near nine per cent when the January figures are released.

The rates include seasonal adjustments such as higher part-time employment during the pre-Christmas weeks and January being the traditional season for job-switching. "It's the highest rate I can remember," said William C. Dorch, district manager and 29- year employe of the state agency- fat, diminished vigor. A truly frightening prospect.

Exercise--take up a sport, go for brisk walks or perform spot exercise. Consult your doctor about vitamin supplements before taking and. That goes for controversial substances, too, such as alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). Young girls need advice on the consumption of iron; mature women on cholesterol. Seek your doctor's permission to reduce.

It is the better part of wisdom to do so if you are past middle age. Take the columns with you. If you are teenage, it is a must. You require more food than diets pro- fide--at least 1000 calories more than this one outlines. (Write me for further information).
