spent the night in an $fl4-a- month. four-bedroom apartment in one of the worst housing projects in the city during the weekend "to see for myself the conditions which exist."

Moynihan has been nominated for a Doublespeak Award for his protest against the nomination he received last year Moynihan was a runner-up last year for a statement that said, before he resigned as ambassador to the United Nations and ran for the Senate, that it would be dishonorable to do so. He complained in a letter that said: "Is it the committee's view that my statement was intended to deceive? If so, may I suggest that you have ventured into an area of knowledge one does not normally associate with teachers of English.

Your committee is good fun, and I much encourage its work. But you must understand that you may have intended to question my honor which I cannot let pass lightly." Prof. Daniel J. Dieterich. chairman of the Doublespeak Committee of the National Council of English Teachers, said Moynihan's letter protesting the nomination was worthy of nomination itself.

"I'm only saying that, within limits, audiences like them. The audience is often a lot more perceptive than some moralists seem to suppose.

What is important is the way sex and violence are presented. Sex is corrupted when it is disassociated from deep affection, and audiences would be corrupted, too, if sex were to be shown persistently as nothing but a passing physical pleasure. "Since sex is a powerful force in the lives of many people," Hetherington concludes, "the dramatic nature of daily life cannot be truly portrayed unless this fact is acknowledged." On our shores, as we all know, the so-called Family Hour has created a minor storm of controversy in the last few years. Then, a month or two ago, a IMS Angeles Federal Court judge issued a curious ruling. He said that the way the Family Hour policy was arrived at was unconstitutional not the policy itself but its methods of imposition, which could be interpreted as collusion among the networks.

The judge stated that any network could continue its policy if it had been conceived independently. And what, for instance, is ABC's policy on violence'' Here it is: "the use of violence for the sake of violence is prohibited. In this connection, special attention should be given to encourage the de-emphasis of acts of violence. "While a story line or plot development may call for the use of force, the amount, a manner of portrayal and necessity of same should be commensurate with a standard of reasonableness and with due regard for the principle that violence, or the use of force, as an appropriate mean to an end. is not to be emulated."

New York City," reached him in 12 hours. And on the "Tonight" Show Joseph Wambaugh told Johnny Carson: "A real policeman will never hit a door with his shoulder. He would break his shoulder that way." And Johnny Carson said it about Tommy Newsom, who fills in for Doc Severinsen as the show's bandleader: "Tommy has a short attention span.

Tt starts when you're a kid playing hide-and-seek. Also. Americans love to gamble, even vicariously, by watching game For another theory, Louis L'Amour, the Western author, turned up on "60 Minutes" and noted: "A Western myth I like to get away from is the idea that a gunfighter or a group of gunfighters could come in and terrorize a town. It just couldn't happen. Because, you see, nearly everybody in that town grew up using a Jesse James and Cole Younger's gang tried to rob two banks in Northfield, they got shot to pieces by a bunch of farmers and businessmen."
