Continued from page 1B think, is the By Wednesday night in Raleigh, Kershaw was looking slightly weary, but his grin betrayed his excitement about the North Carolina bands. Directed by Trevor Dann, in plaid coat and baseball cap, Kershaw shouldered a backpack and strode purposefully past the Brewery marquee and into the club, film rolling for the opening of the segment to be called "A Visit to Comboland." It didn't matter that Dixon's is the only name the 1.5 million "Whistle Test" viewers may be likely to recognize. Kershaw and Dann didn't mind springing the North Carolina music scene on their audience across the Atlantic, where Madonna is the biggest U.S. name on the pop charts this month. "The good people of North Carolina have some good stuff happening here," Kershaw said.

"I hope they appreciate it." The BBC team, by the way, promised to send a videocassette of their North Carolina segment, which probably will run for 20 to 25 minutes of the hourlong "'Whistle Test," to Raleigh. Cheshire said it will be shown at the Brewery. frightening.

Beth Polson, left, Barbara Walters and Johnny Carson at his Malibu home Producing for Barbara Walters Continued from page 1B Adolescent Drug Use," aired in January on CBS and was nominated for the Humanitas Prize, which is given by the Human Family Institute to commend television programs that promote human values. It was the ninth-highest rated movie out of the 99 shown on network television during 1984-'85 season.

Another, "This Child Is Mine," depicting a legal struggle between adoptive parents and a child's natural mother, is tentatively scheduled for Nov. 4 on NBC. The scheduling itself is a compliment, Ms. Polson said, because it comes at the beginning of the November ratings sweeps, a time when the networks haul out what they think is their strongest programming. Her next project is a pilot for a television series about a woman working as a producer in television news.

"Guess where I got the idea for that one," she said. At the moment she is catching her breath from finishing the special that airs tonight. It took two years, she said, to negotiate the interview with Princess Caroline, and the situation remained iffy until the last moment. "No one had ever interviewed Princess Caroline," Ms. Polson said.

"When we went to Monaco in July, I took the attitude, 'I'll believe it when I see The interview turned out well, but dealing with the monarchy was not always easy. the same time, I read the manuscript for Priscilla Presley's book and and decided it was going to be a hot book, and I wanted to interview her before anyone else had a chance to read the book. That's why the show is in September. We usually start in October, but I convinced ABC to start us early. And when we got Barbra Streisand, that put us in the situation of having three headliners and no second act.

With three really major interviews, we decided to expand the program to 90 minutes, which is a first for us." She plans to take advantage of the break between projects to visit her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.C. Polson, back in Corapeake. Despite the usually hectic schedules and sometimes heady atmosphere of network television, she maintains close ties with her family.

always like returning to Corapeake," she said. "I go home so often, it isn't ever a big deal when I get there. It is part of what has kept me on a progressive career path. I live in Hollywood, after all, and in my kind of business, it is easy to get self-satisfied and lose all sense of proportion. Instead of spending $75 an hour talking to a shrink, I just go home and sit on my folks' front porch.

There are so many people who need to see it. I am the mother of four beautiful healthy daughters. I couldn't be happier Ann or more proud. When I became pregnant with my fourth child nearly every person I met said, "Trying for the boy, I I love children, and I'm a good mother.

I never cared if I had a boy or a girl. Only an idiot would have a baby just because she wanted one sex or another. I could barely remain civil when some insensitive clod said in front of the girls, "Maybe four will be a charm. Hope you get that boy!" It made the girls feel as if they had been a disappointment. Nothing could be further from the truth.

After my fourth daughter was born, the comments from my friends made me furious. Their calls sounded more like condolences than congratulations. I was amazed at the number of ignoramuses who asked, "Are you going to try again?" To all you idiots: My husband and I are thrilled to have four beautiful, healthy children, and we don't care what sex they are. If you can't share in our joy, please keep your mouth shut. All Girls and We're Thrilled Dear Thrilled: My mother had four girls and told us repeatedly that she never hoped for a boy.

In fact she regretted not having had a couple more girls. There's an old saying, "A son is a son till he takes a wife. A daughter is a daughter all of her life." Many readers have written to say this is true. Dear Ann Landers: Two years ago my father died a slow, miserable death from alcoholism. I feel guilty because I felt no remorse when he died.

Not only was he an embarrassment to me, but he had become very abusive to mom. I began seeing a man who was very much like my father. He looked like him, had a way of intimidating people and at the same time was totally charming. The man, John was married. He kept saying he loved me, that he wanted to leave his wife and marry me, but he couldn't bear to lose his little boy.

He begged me to be patient and promised that everything would Landers work out fine. Well, what worked out is that I got pregnant and so did his wife. I was desperate. Eighteen years old and pregnant! So I went to bed with another guy, told him I was pregnant later and that the baby was his. I married the fellow to save face.

It was only supposed to be temporary, but now I hope it lasts 60 years. He is a dream come true sweet, sensitive, helpful, loving and everything I don't deserve. The baby looks so much like her father it kills me because I'm still torching for John. I want to see him and can't seem to talk myself out of it. I know how lucky I am to have such a great husband.

So why can't I let go? I can't talk to anyone I know about this, and I can't afford a psychiatrist. My husband is too good a man to hurt. I need to clear my head of a lot of guilt. What shall I do? This isn't a made-up letter. It's my life.

Tallahassee Dear Tall: Talk to a clergyman or a counselor. Also, there are mental health professionals available at reasonable rates. Family Services is excellent. Look in the phone book. Please get some help before you louse up your life.
