Show TV Today Why Not Replace NFL With a Little Quality? By Harold Schindler Tribune Television Editor There was a point last week at which it seemed reasonable to toss aside the continuing blather about t National Foo- tball and luring men into her murderous web by posing as a hustler. Is that corny enough? If it sounds The Night suspiciously like Stalker, it isnt coincidental, because the same executive producers and director are involved in both. (Seems that in this case they changed the gender of the vampire and the story location from Las Vegas to Hollywood.) If thats what football fans will have to face . . . it's time to float a federal bond issue to get the pigskinners back. One way to solve the whole sorry business would be to televise the negotiations. That would soon separate the liars from the good guys and resulting lynching would rattle some sense into the survivors. lywood League strike by the players against the owners with an I serves em right, and look ahead to substi-- l tute program' ming by ABC on Monday nights. Mr. Schindler On weekends where NFL games once held forth, we are now being subjected to some of the silliest boxing matches in memory, and it does the networks little credit to stuff so much useless brawling on the tube Sunday afternoon. Even so, it is reasonable also to expect that the boxing will soon be replaced by other programs. Maybe an old, but fine motion picture; perhaps even a treasure from the silent film era, like The Covered Wagon, made in 1923 and a gem of early cinematography. Its a good opportunity for some of us to see pictures (Hells Angels or 'Wings) that are no longer commonplace entertainment. If that were to happen, the loss of professional football would be easy to overcome. But considering what ABC the simple network intends to run Monday night in place of an NFL game, the price may be too high. The network will serve up a turkey (10 days too soon) called I, Desire, dealing with a modern-da- y female vampire prowling Hol FOR WHAT ITS WORTH: NBC has picked up the option on Family Ties starring Meredith Baxter Blrney and Michael Gross for the rest of the season . . .

Special to The Tribune election, San Juan Countys retiring county clerk says the Nov. 2 balloting was just a election. Clytie Barber, county clerk for 16 years and deputy clerk for five years prior to that, says a county clerks job in isolated, rural areas requires far more than just sitting behind a desk shuffling papers. Charged with the responsibility of locating and assigning registration agents and judges to work elections in each of the countys 19 voting districts, Mrs. Barber spends a lot of time traveling to outlying districts in Utahs largest county in area. Mrs. Barber, who did not seek says shell stay in Monticello for a few months assisting the new clerk. Then she plans to move to Salt Lake Valley to be nearer to her three grown children. Mrs. Barbers career began in earnest 19 years ago when her husband died, leaving her with three young children to raise. Turbulent Flight Reminiscing about past elections, Mrs. Barber remembers flying to the countys most distant district Navajo Mounwhen an updraft temtain porarily prevented the plane from making contact with the ground. The pilot circled the landing strip over and over, banking the plane so steeply that it seemed we were almost flying upside down. Dizzy from the turbulent flight, Mrs. Barber and her pilot Rep. John Sieberling, of the House subcommittee on public lands and national parks, will head a congressional tour of delegation on a four-daSouthern Utah. The group, scheduled to arrive in Moab Friday night, will visit the proposed nuclear waste dump site near Canyonlands National Park, fly over several proposed wilderness areas, and view potential coal mining areas in the Henry Moun chairman y were met for the drive to the trading post by an obviously inebriated man. "I told the pilot hed better drive or wed never arrive anywhere," she said. Other Adventures Another time, Mrs. Barber and a pilot arrived without incident at a marina on the shores of Lake Powell to deliver election supplies. But taking off was another matter with a short gravel runway and heavy winds. but not They finally took off without skimming the water first. Another year, a blizzard disrupted telephone lines to Navajo Mountain, making it impossible to obtain voting results until the following day. I got home about 2 a.m. after giving a final count to the news media, Mrs. Barber said. At 3 a.m., my home phone rang and a voice at the other end asked me if I could get the last districts returns. I advised her the blizzard had disrupted phone service and that a plane would fly in with the returns the following morning. The voice on the other end said, Cant someone just run over there and get them to make the count complete? I told her that its about an eight-hou- r trip in daylight and good weather. tains and near Bryce Canyon National Park. Others in the delegation will be Utah Republicans James V. Hansen and Howard Nielson. Congressmen from Colorado and Montana may also join the tour. The group will hold a private breakfast meeting Saturday in Moab to hear from both proponents and opponents of the Department of Energys nuclear waste dump plans.

After retiring and moving closer to her children, Mrs. Barber said she would like to visit Washington, D.C., to see the historic sites. A CO -- AT a Charm School New Stale Governors To Meet in Park City On Nov. 2, voters in 17 states elected as their governors men with varied backgrounds, some with only peripheral experience in the complexities and vagaries of administering government. Because of that, and because of the belief there needs to be greater unity among states due to shifts of responsibility away from Washington, newly elected governors will gather this weekend at Park City for a seminar called by the National Governors Association. Gov. Scott M. Matheson of Utah, this years NGA chairman, and Mrs. Matheson are hosts of the Saturday and Sunday program that, although it will be taken as serious business by the governors and their aides, is referred to as the Governors Charm School by planners at the Utah Capitol. Work Sessions Work sessions are scheduled at the Yarrow Holiday Inn in Park City, while the seminar begins with a Friday evening buffet at Deer Valley Resort. The emphasis, said Ken Olson, who directs the NGA in Washington under Gov. Matheson, will be more on procedural matters and coordinated management practices than it will be on organizing governors as a lobbying force in Congress. At the seminar. Gov. Matheson and Mr. Olson will announce details lend-leas- e of a proposition whereby teams of aides to governors can be dispatched to other states to assist governors with little experience in certain problem areas. The work sessions, with topics ranging from dealing with the press to executive-legislativ- e relations, This will be closed to reporters. will be a closed, executive retreat climate, said Mr. Olson, so that participants will have freedom and not be inhibited from asking questions, some of which will be naive but have to be asked. Other topics include organizing and operating the governors office; intergovernmental relations and management of the executive branch of state governments. A Sunday work session is a retrospective look at the governorship, with guest speakers, Gov. Matheson and former Utah Gov. Calvin L. Rampton and former North Carolina Gov. Terry Sanford. Sitting Governors Other sitting governors to attend are John D. Rockefeller IV of West Virginia, Christopher S. Bond of Missouri, Robert D. Ray of Iowa, Richard D. Lamm of Colorado, Allen I. Olson of North Dakota, George Busbee of Georgia, Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, John Carlin of Kansas, Joseph E. Brennan of Maine, George R. Ariyoshi of Hawaii, James R. Thompson of Illinois, Richard A. Snelling of Vermont, Charles S. Robb of Virginia and William J. Janklow of South Dakota.
