Juliet had persuaded her parents to play in a Swiss team game with them. Her father had argued that no Montague could play bridge but Juliet's tears had prevailed and good fortune had attended the new team. As you know, in a Swiss team you play a series of short matches at IMP scoring. The Capulets, plus one Montague, needed one more win to finish first.

They finished the match and started to compare scores. Coming to the last board, they trailed by eight IMPs. Old man Canute' remarked, "We're plus 100 but it won't do us any good.

While doodling during a long phone call, do you draw a series of small boxes? TV Doesn't Show Economic Status YORK (AP) -Unemployment Is a current national problem, but you would never know it from the economic status of the character on television series. The network shows may be the only place In America where you will find full employment and where no one worries about rising prices. It Is an ambiguous situation because the networks themselves are trimming expenses. ABC Is turning back hours a week to Its affiliate stations beginning In'January to solve some of Its own prime time losses. This is In anticipation of next fall, when all three networks will be required by the Federal Communications Commission to cut 3A hours a week from Ihelr prime time schedules.

NBC is not turning back any time as yet, but It Is eliminating the equivalent of a half-hour series a week by i i "Adam-12" Thursday lo replace the canceled "Nancy" at mldseason. In place of "Adam 12" the network will run longer films on Saturday night. As a result of this and other economies, actors, writers and others Involved In production are finding it tougher to find work. One hard-hit industry is the aerospace Industry, but on "My Three Sons" Fred MacMurray, who plays an aerospace engineer, Is unaffected. The exception Is "Julia," where Dlhann Carroll lost her Job as a nurse In an aerospace business earlier this season but go! It back when another nurse left to get married.

Miller's script which has been greatly expanded for the screen was originally written for "CBS Television Playhouse," where It won a "Emmy" awards when originally presents d( and was acclaimed Si the highest rated dramatic special of the year. "The People Next Door" casts Wallach and Miss Harris as the parents of Deborah Winters, a seemingly model teen-ager who has been secretly tripping out on drugs and covertly indulging In sex relations with a bearded hippie In Ills pad in a squaUd East Village tenement building. McHattie plays Miss Winters' older brother in a role that sets him as a rebellious, long-haired rock musician.

Hollibrook and Miss Leachman portray the "Next door" neighbors. Jn assembling the research data for his script, Miller had access to two extensive studies by major American universities which underscore and confirm the effects of the use of LSD and other psychedelic drugs as depicted In "The People Next Door." The uislltions which developed the clinical data were the College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio and Wayne Stale University In Detroit. Directed by David Greene, who also directed Miller's script as a prize-winning tele- a "The People Next Door" was filmed on location In New York. Making Its film debut in "The People Next poor" is The Bead Gome, musical group recording for Avco Embassy Records. The rock group, which halls from Boston, doubles In the film fortheband led by actor Stephen McHattie.

"The Peope Next Door" deals with many of the harsh realities of life In middle class suburbia that have elicited Us scathing Indictment as the new hedonistic so- cletles on the American social tapestry. The story is told with a bluntness of language and vividness of action that will make It one of the most discussed and controversial films of the year. Nothing is left to the imagination.
