" JVE GOTTEN lots of letters like this Because Im in television and myself, because Im not shy about expressing my views, folks around the country write me all the time, hoping that perhaps I can change things. Or at least try. And I do. WHEN I WAS 21, I turned down my first prime-tim- e network series, because I couldnt conscientiously work for a cigarette sponsor. Soon after that, I had to pass up another opportunity because I wasnt a beer drinker, and therefore, couldnt endorse their product But Chevrolet came along, and we had a wonderful three years I led a hot an- Eventually, tipornography campaign in California, and was unsuccessful mainly because of the richly financed opposition of the people in my own industry PRODUCERS, actors and writers were scared that anlegislation tipornography might cramp their styles and looking at television these days, I can see why But wait Don't get me the men at the wrong networks are not your enemies and theyre nol know a lot of them mine and theyre good guys But XV is such a giant, its so powerful and so complex, pressure to produce is so intense and rewards for guess ihg right can be so great, that television is very difficult to change On the other hand, its impact on all of us is so great, that we need to try 1 "RIGHT NOW, though, its largely controlled by three men and their advisers This can be good and it can be terrible. It depends on who the men are, and what motivates them Theres nothing wrong with the profit motive, if governed by a sense of real responsibility to the paying Customer and to the public at is large. You know that profit of the primary consideration the three men who head up our TV networks It has to be its .1 HONESTLY believe that these men feel a sense of responsibility to the American public, as well as to the spon- sors and the owners. They have wives, children, and neighbors, and they probably belong to church groups and crvic organizations, just like we do, Their jobs, are immensely powerful but with that power comes tremendous pressure, uncertainty, and complexity Its one business where youre only as good as your last rating" and the turnover at the executive level can be frighteningly swift ALONG MADISON Avenue in New York and in TV network offices, in Los Angeles, the ulcer count is high. Imagine a man working his way to the top position at a major network, up from the lowly beginning as a writer, producer, or station manager, finding himself at the pin- nacle of his profession with dizzying power and responsibility HE KNOWS that if he doesnt win the ratings battles in a relatively short time, hell be thrown down and someone else will be occupying his big office Would you want to be in his chair? I wouldnt But you can affect that mans decisions, m two significant ways First pray for him. Ever think of that? Bible THE WELL, specifically tells us, pray for all that are in authority over you, that you may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty Those three men, through their decisions, exercise tremendous authority over us so pray and our families for them write to them Second, These are men who really do want to give the American public what it desires They know that the rating system is only a good guess while a significant number of letters has accomplished many programming changes They do make a difference I HAVE written a letter to all three network heads. If enough of us would do a similar thing, and if well pray for them, things will change It's a fact of American life, thank God, and its a spiritual principle I hope youll do it, too God bless you Here is the letter Dear Im in this crazy, wonder- ful, complex and exciting business of television with you. More than most of the public, 1 can sympathize with the pressures and problems that can go with your job. STILL, AS ONE viewer and the head of one family, 1 feel its only fair to register our feelings with you about the subject matter of television today. Surely, if you really had the pulse of enough of the American people, your job would be easier. So I think we ought to let you know what we really want on television MARVELOUS THAT flickering box sits in our living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms and influences our children (us too) greatly. Although there's a fascination about violence, occult things, and sexual scenes, and therefore their ratings are high, we're increasingly concerned about the long-rang- e effects of a steady diet of this stuff on our national morality and attitudes IM THINKING now that Rembrandt and Renoir were capable of beautiful por- nography and classic sadism, instead, these and other great masters chose themes that were worthy of their artistry I beg the artist and the of television to choose scenes more worthy of their talents and their positions of influence. I've decision-maker- s long felt that talent, like water, may seek its lowest level if there are no barriers or checks on it. REGARDLESS of the boun- daries of restrictions placed One of the most significant dates in American history was Nov 23, 1765 On this day, more than two hundred years ago, the Frederick County, Maryland, court ordered its regular business carried on without the use of stamped paper-- as required by the famous Stamp Act AT THIS time the states were still English colonies In March of that year Parliament the had passed Stamp Act, recommended by Sir William Keith, a former royal Governor of Pennsylvania The act levied a stamp tax three pence to ten shillings on legal papers, two pounds on college diplomas, four pounds on licenses to sell wine, two to six shillings on deeds, ten shillings on a pair of dice, a shilling on a pack of playing cards, a shilling for every advertisement in a newspaper, etc of THE TAX outraged many Americans, who felt that only their own state assemblies had the taxing authority over them Patrick Henry, in Virginia, managed to get a defiant resolution adopted by the Virginia General Assembly, so much so that it was expunged from the record the day after it was passed Aroused citizens m many states destroyed the stamped upon it, true talent will always be creative In fact, the greatest artists produce the most worthy masterpieces within the restraints of decency and morality and the inspiration of spirituality All Im saving is that shows, like "The Waltons, Mary Tyler Moore, Lawrence Welk, Marcus Welby, and "Little House on the Prairie" can be immensely successful and keep people glued to those sets by the multimillions without a spiritual and moral and emotional fallout the next day I KNOW thats not the easy course, the responsible role is usually a little harder than the alternatives But surely, we should all take time and the effort to regain some lost ground My family and I really hope that you and the other creative people at your network will do America that great big favor If my family and can do anything to help, please call on us.

Lettuce contains healthful vitamins and minerals, as well as roughage, which is missing in our refined diets today GROWING YOUR own lettuce indoors also allows you to pick it at its best. The lettuce you buy is often limp and unappealing after long trips to the store. And you never know what it has been sprayed with. Lettuce produces quickly too Just four weeks after seeding you can begin harvesting outer leaves from each plant while letting the rest continue growing. ONCE YOU have decided to embark upon this salad-producin- g adventure, be daring in choosing the varieties to grow There are many interesting sorts of novelty and looseleaf types of lettuce to try LETTUCE WITH rather sturdy leaves are good choices.
