It's a long way from Renaissance France to the modern-day American Midwest, but Lincoln, Nebraska organ builder Gene R. Bedient travels that path when the Nebraska ETV special, "The Wind at One's Fingertips" airs Sunday, Jan. 18 at 3 p.m. The 60-minute special fol lows the creation of the first authentic French classic-style pipe organ in the United States. Motion pictures, television and litera ture have given cattle ranching in the America West a proud national image a limitless frontier, hearty cowboys and the strong independent rancher whose word is his bond. Today, many people, including ranch ers themselves, accept the stereotypes of being independent minded, out spoken and individualistic. Because of this, just as.with the troubled American farmer, it's often difficult for the plight of the contemporary rancherto be fully realized and appreciated by urban soc iety. A look at today's ranchers and the var ious changes they feel compelled to make in order to survive is the focus of "BACK AT THE RANCH," Tuesday, Jan. 20 at 9 p.m. on the Nebraska ETV Network. A client tells his lawyer he has mur dered two missing girls. Should the lawyer tell the police and the anguished parents, or keep the murders confi dential? This is a real life case from "ETHICS ON TRIAL," a documentary on lawy ers ethics airing Wednesday, J 9 p.m. on the Nebraska ETV . .1 s. . f The program loo!"; :.t Arr:r;::.'c oq- hate relation?, why mo?t : : : rank tfc. -: : ! : .
