Ivy Bethune wouldn't dream of slamming the door in the face of a cookie-selling girl scout. But both of them look as though they are indeed capable of such acts. Tyner and Bethune appear weekly on NBC-TV's new "Father Murphy" series (Tuesdays, 8-9 p.m.) as the evil, disgusting Howard Rodman and Miss Tuttle, two fo the most powerful villains of this television season.
