Judy Hart as Catherine Reardon in the Studio Theatre's
production of And Miss Reardon Drinks A Little by Paul Zindet.
The play, directed by Doug Street, continues through Saturday
at 8 p.m. ':,.-
When Aunt Hannah wakes up in the
morning, she feels incomplele. Something
basic to her being is missing. Coffee, juice,
rqlls-these' help, but .what Aunt Hannah
needs is to break her fast with her vitally
needed television set.
Luckily, she has the Today show. Every1
weekday, from 7 ajn. to 9 ajn., channei 3
answers her morning hunger with this pro
gram of news, weather, sports and feature
reporting. Probably any show would dq.
But Today so perfectly suits her favorite
medium? that Aunt Hannah regularly
bounds from bed to switch on the show.
Aunt Hannah loves Today, but shd
doesn't switch off her set at 9 a.m. This
week, she recommends watching:
Pat Garrett and Billy th Kid (Thursday, Ch. 6
and 10, 8 p.m.) In this 1973 Western, Sam Peck
inpah directed James Coburn, Kris Kristofferson,
Jason Robards, Rita Coolidge, and Slim Pickens.
The outlaw, William H. Boonty,' is tracked down
by his former crony, Garrett, in a movie not as
good as Peckinpah's "Straw Dogs". The score was -written
by an actor in the film. Bob Dylan.
Sweat Hostage (Friday, Ch. 7, 8 p.m.) Martin .
Sheen plays an outcast from society, as he did
in the movie Badlands, this -time snatching Linda
Blair, star of The Exorcist Sheen is a mental
hospital escapee who believes be is Coleridge's
Kubla Khan, founding "a stately pleasure dome."
It's s 1975 TV-movie based on Nathaniel Bench
ley's novel, Wecome to Xanadu. ,
David Suskind (Saturday, Ch. 12. 10 p.m.) "Who
ismea jonn r. rvwinauy ii um cuojubi. un imihj
are lawyers from the Warren Commission, a bal
listics expert and Allard Lowenstein, a leading
critic of the Commission's report. A gruesome
can of worms to reopen, but reopened it must be.
CirWerella LEjsrty (Sunday, Ch. 7, 8 p.m.) James
Caan is the sailor on leave, Marsha Mason the
prostitute he meets. Her Illegitimate son warms
hearts. Aunt Hannah likes the players, disdains
the play.
- Tomorrow (Monday, Ch. 3, midnight) Host Tom
Snyder turns Aunt Hannah's stomach, but his
guest is Mel Blanc. Blanc gave voice to Bugs
Bunny and Daffy Duck, made regular appearan
ces on the old Jack Benny show, and is a delight.
CBS Reports (Wednesday, Ch. 6 and 10, 9 p.m.)
"The . American Way of Cancer" explores evi
dence that 85 per cent of all cancer is caused by
our environment. Increasing with the cancer
rate Is the use of asbestos, arsenic, vinyl chloride
and suspicious pesticides and food additives. Dan
Rather will check out possible connections.
Celebration at Big Sur (Cable TV Ch. 9: Thurs
day, 7 p.m.; Saturday, 1 a.m., 2 p.m.; Sunday, 1
a.m.) A passable music festival movie. Performing
are Joan Baez, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young,
' John Sebastian, Mimi Farina and a rare treat
Jonl Mitchell.
