The award for best single program of the year went not to a network show but to one presented on public broadcasting The Andersonville Trial. Earlier in the television academy awards, All in the Family, a situation comedy that somehow manages to evoke laughs from a bigoted husband and father, was named outstanding comedy series of the season. Producer Norman Lear, who accepted the Emmy, told the Hollywood Palladium audience he had spent three years trying to get the show on television.

Scott, who last month spurned an Oscar for the movie Patton, won an Emmy on Sunday night for best single performance during the 1970-71 U.S. television season. Apparently he will keep it.

Scott, who was selected for his role in the Hallmark Hall of Fame special The Price, was not present. His award was accepted by Jack Cassidy, also a nominee in the same category, for The An-dersonville Trial, which Scott directed. Said Cassidy with a grin: "I'm in shock, not because he won, but because he asked me to accept." Scott refused to appear for the Oscar awards on April 15 and would not designate an acceptor at the awards, which he categorized as "a two-hour meat parade." His friends indicated he would accept the Emmy, which is selected by an elite jury, not by a wide eleetroate as in the Motion Picture Academy.

With the vast nave of the cathedral limited in size by construction work, there was standing room only more than a half-hour before the announced time of the service, and people continued to pour in.

The luncheon, attended by about 50 writers, was to publicize Liberace's opening at the Los Angeles Music Centre. Dishes from his cookbook, Liberate Cooks, were served. Virginia Heffington of the Long lieach, Independent Press-Telegraph said Liberace objected to a photo being taken in his kitchen because it was "too messy." She in turn objeeted'to a photo including one of his cookbooks, saying it would be "too commercial." Miss Heffington said Liberace told her: "Well, then I think we should forget the photograph." To which she "Well, then 1 think we should forget the story because you're a belter piano player than you are a cook.

Your beef stroganoff tastes more like canned beef stew." It was then that Miss Heffington said she was asked to leave. Theatre Richmond cancels Wizard Richmond's production of The Wizard of Oz, scheduled for a three-day run at the Playhouse starting Thursday, lias been cancelled due to poor advance ticket sales.

"We've got the whole (Greenwich) Village here," a member of the cathedral staff said.

The service followed the traditional pattern of a high Episcopal mass, with some ecumenical touches and unusual additions. Episcopal Itcv. Richard K. Kirk celebrated the mass and Roman Catholic Rev. Richard Ilagni, brother of Hair author Ucrome Itagni, read Uie epistle.

Federal Communications Commissioner Nicholas Johnson, a Unitarian, and Dr. Harvey Cox of the Harvard Divinity School, a Baptist, spoke at the services. The cathedral choir and the choir of St. Martin's Episcopal Church joined the Hair cast in a program of selections from the show and other music appropriate to the occasion. Hair, although praised for its score and the freshness of its approach, is noted as the first show to feature mixed nudity.

The selections from Hair, sung by the cast and the cathedral choir, were woven through the service with Aquarius serving as the introit and Let The Sun Shine In as the dismissal. Also, during the offertory, the combined choirs sang Hair, Three Five Zero Zero, 1,000 Year Old Man and Where Do 1 Go.

Not that Elvi Hale as Anne of Cleves was necessarily the best actress. The Henry Award in that category, in retrospect, goes to Annette Crosbio as Catherine of Aragon. The surprising thing about the series Is that the men surrounding Henry were memorable while the women fade into the background. Blame that on historical accuracy, if you must.

To Ibis very day, he continues to be one of the best connoisseurs of he modern vaffailon of Paulsen's system In Sicilian Among his limitations, in my view, arc a certain under estimation of the opponent's resources, in defending against vigorous attacks on the king in particular. Sometimes, in difficult positions, he plays somewhat superficially.

Fischer, 28, carries out his ideas without false fantasies, staking on high standards of play, tactical art and invariably striving for a struggle to the last. Among his vulnerable spots are his comparatively coarse methods of defence against surprise attacks on his king, and a certain passion for extra pawns. He is used to playing all the games, both on the while and black sides of the board, for a forced win. Incidentally, his playing white is by no means risky. On the contrary, using the initiative in an opening, he is fond of pressuring his opponent for a long time, whereas, when on the black side of the board, he sometimes runs serious risks strategically, although it is not easy to refute his ideas actically.

After a long interval, Fischer has won the right to enter the challange round for a third time, and the American Grandmaster has lately improved the standards of his performance. But, it appears, shortcomings still remain in his play above all, in complex modern strategy in openings. The question is, however, whether his opponent will succeed in finding such forms in which these shortcomings will become pronounced. distinguishing natural qualities are the swiftness of calculation, easiness in assessing position, excellent standards of performance and constant striving for initiative. Taimanov became Master ut the age of 19, and the title of Grandmaster was conferred upon him when he was 26.

He won this title at the inter-zonal tournament in 1952, where he qualified for a challengers' tournament. This was followed by a long period in his chess career, when, though remaining at a high level, he failed to find a plucc among the chess elite fighting it out for the world crown. Now, 18 years later, he has qualified for the challengers' elimination round for a second time. One cannot but mention another, purely human trait of Taimanov: his inexhaustible chess optimism. Taimanov, already at the ebb of his chess career, seems to be living through his second youth.

Taimanov first achieved high summits of chess mastery when he tied for first place with Mikhail Botvinnik at the 20th U.S.S.R. chess championship in 1952, although ceding top honors to Botvinnik in a playoff. It was in those years that Taimanov's strategic skills took place. He avoids risky and unfounded attacks and prefers mounting pressure on the opponent's bastions in the centre and the Q-side, refraining from irrational attacks on the enemy king. Afor a long time Taimanov was less confident in defence, especially against sudden attacks on his king.

He repeatedly failed, when playing black, to find sufficiently dependable ways of counteracting the white's opening move of 1. P-K4. While consistently mastering the art On Thursday at the University of B.C. in Vancouver tivo world-renowned chess figures, Robert Fischer of the United States owl Mark Taimanov of the Soviet Union, will meet in a quarter-final match for the world chess title. Novosti Press Ayency in Ottawa has made available to The Canadian Press the following assessment of the match by International Grandmaster Alexei Suerhi of the Soviet Union.

By ALEXEI SUERIN The holding of the Robert Fischer vs. Mark Taimanov match in Vancouver, starting on Thursday, is of no small importance for the. promotion of chess in Canada, all the more so since such major competitions have not been held in Canada hitherto. Only the international tournament held in Winnipeg in can compete with the forthcoming encounter in its international significance. In recent years, Canadian chess players have scored notable achievements at world team chess championships, including the emergence in the world chess arena of the up-and-coming Canadian representative Duncan Sullies, 24, of Vancouver, who won the title of International Grandmaster in 1906 and who then nrocceded to perform successfully at the inter-zonal tournament in Palma de Mallorca.

Mark Taimanov, 45, is a pianist by profession. He regularly takes part in duet piano concerts together with his wife, Lubov Bruk. In chess, he is a truly versatile specialist. He writes a lot on the most diverse questions of theory, supplies running commentaries to many of his games and is also a successful chess journalist. The name of Taimanov became known among chess circles late in the '40s.
