The Daily Tar Heel Monday, March 6, 1972 Bruce Mann Carr reviews fatch Dou low KO0 Nesf mas VU1IC John Lennon and Yoko Ono are booked onto Channel 5's Mike Douglas Show for this week, and they'll be bringing on all their friends - people like Jerry Rubin (Tuesday), Chuck Berry (Wednesday) and Bobby Seale (Thursday). The biggest surprise, though, is that all of th;s will happen on Channel 5, where "Dixie", not "The Star-Spangled Banner", serves as the sign-off song. Tune in some morning this week at 9:30; Viewpoint editorials will never be the same again. "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," a 1962 John Ford-John Wayne-Jimmy Stewart western, will be shown in two parts beginning today on Channel 8's afternoon movie. It's a typical John Ford vehicle, full of drunks, chaste women and evil outlaws (Lee Marvin plays Liberty Valance), and it's worth watching. The New Hampshire primary will fill a lot of network airtime Tuesday night, and it just might deserve it, if the Boston Globe's straw poll showing Muskie with less than 50 of the projected vote turns out to be correct. After ABC finishes its coverage of the primary at midnight, Dick Cavett will "interview" Billy Graham.

"The Wizard of Oz" will make its annual appearance on the tube Tuesday night at 7:30 on NBC. And finally, the semi-finals of the Atlantic Coast Conference basketball championship will be on Friday night beginning at seven. Since the rerun season begins this week, it might be appropriate to say a few words about how relentlessly wretched television has been this year. Virtually the only things worth watching on the tube have been the old movies (which are almost always shown locally and at inconvenient times). Speaking of movies, the worst new trend in television, I think, has been the proliferation of made-for-television films. Sometime, when you find yourself watching one of these "action-packed" films, why don't you try turning down the sound and see how much action really takes place when there's no music and pseudo-snappy dialogue to keep them moving. Leon Russell made a profound statement when he played at Duke last fall. "Don't watch too much TV," he told the audience. "It's bad for your head." abcY IThMtrtf- NOW SHOWING A HOWARD W.

As dramatic literature. Dale Wasserman's adaptation of Ken Kesev's currently faddish novel simply remains a soap opera capsule, easy to swallow and digest but with little dramatic enrichment to offer. It allows no shades of gray. The subject under discussion is as black and white as a Rorschach inkblot design. Though the latter, an ostensibly jagged and meaningless abstraction, can theoretically deliver internal emotional iformation. Wasserman's work too involved with surface coloration to seek revealing internal spectrums of its characters. For example, the play, by its very symbolic metaphor, invites, nay begs, blatant allegorization - the voluntary committal patients represent those who tacitly assist tyranny through unquestioning subservience; Chief Bromden symbolizes latent minority groups under tyranny i and the chronics are the masses, lobotomized by sheer authority. The play is indeed that superficial. Even the psychology at work is readily recognizable from elementary Freud -two strong figures clash, one a vitalized braggart named McMurphy who sought committal to avoid work-farm labor, the other an overbearing nurse. Miss Ratched, a crystal-cleer classic illustration of Freud's reaction formation defense mechanism, a woman so frightened by her own impulses that she takes delight in vigorously attacking sexual impulses as ELIZABETH rm TAYiLuDIR I V IHICHAEL (CAD WEE : i at 4- in A KASTNER-LADD-KANTER PRODUCTION For MONDAY THRU THURSDAY &.M.ijM.'Visyi .

McMurphy's .-.emeus is Margot Corr.gan's Nurse Ratched. less a terrifying . transcendent incarnation of tyranny than a rather attractive battle-ax. As for the cast of patients ... When Robert Long's effective lighting switches from pulsating spotlights on Chief Bromden for his soliloquies to the brightness cf the sterile ward (a splendid symmetrical Tom Rezzuto set in institutional creen ith a nurses' station v.mc J C an authoritative airport control tower), the contrast is blinding. But when the patients arrive on the scene, however, the contrast loses much of its power. For one thing, the patients cannot project the ages of their characters lev en some haircuts here might have helped). For another, acting proficiency varies considerably - for example, one of the vegetables is outstandingly frightening while the other is totally unconvincing. Glen Stancik's stunenna Biliv Bibbit is album But Cooder, like so many musicians who refuse to base their styles or songs on what is "popular," or what might sell, has remained a relatively obscure figure other than in professional circles. That is up until now. With the release of '"Jamming With Edward." people are beginning to ask, who is Ry Cooder? The answer is contained in his newest solo album, "Into The Purple Valley.' Cooder's music is hard to clasify, but most of the tunes have a country or blues twang to them. All the songs are either old traditionals with no credited writer, or by noted country and blues writers. The selections include Ledbelly's "On a Monday," Johnny Cash's "Hey Porter." and Woody Guthrie's "Yigilantie Man." Surprisingly, Cooder, a very talented writer, is not credited with writing any of the material. Instrumentally, the album is without noticeable flaw. As no credits are given, it is impossible to say just how much Cooder is responsible for, but the dobro, slide guitar and mandolin, which are the solidifying sounds on every song, are obviously Cooder's work.. " "TVoder's voice, throaty and always a fraction off-key, seems tailor made for his style of playing and has a certain inexplicable charm that is all his own. He sings lead on every song and even does some fine "taling blues" on "FDR in Trinidad." It is hard to say why this record is so Remember him ;ndio CKpl Kill. N.
