Her income supplements that of her disabled husband, Carl, and covers the cost of her flying lessons. Flying lessons? The 53-year-old grandmother takes to the air three times a week in a Skyhawk 172, usually toward Connecticut to bring her 6-year-old grandson home for a visit.

As a cab driver, she has found a proven cure for over-friendly passengers: "Step on the gas and scare the hell out of them." She talks about her most interesting passenger (a racing fan), male VS. female drivers (no difference), women's lib (needed), skyjackings (hideous) and drugs (a medicalpsychological problem) in the Ideas Section. Song and dance Ken Berry is a TV Andy Griffith Show," Troop," "The Ann Sothern Show," "Mayberry R.F.D."-always playing some sort of variation on the simple-but-loveable guy. Beginning Saturday, he's getting back to his origins in show business as a song-and-dance man on "The Ken Berry Wow Show." A TV Book profile takes him from his audition with Horace Heidt to his new comedyvariety show. Rather Be in Philly? There are more reasons to come to Philadelphia-one being that it isn't New York--than to stay away.

One of its delights is the compactness of the nation's fourth largest city. Unlike New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, Philadelphia is for walkers. With perhaps a short cab ride or two thrown in for efficiency, essential Philadelphia can be seen easily on foot, without courting exhaustion, in a weekend. The delights can start with a late-night Friday dinner at a picturesque, comfortable cafe. The food may not be the best available in the city, but this is supposed to be a Philadelphia weekend, not a gourmet's trip.

The next morning could start with browsing through one or more of the open-air markets, followed by a stroll through tiny, almost toylike streets full of old, restored houses tucked snugly away under the shadow of City Hall. That's only a foretaste of the things to see and do in the birthplace of the nation, as outlined in Sunday's Travel Section.
