Last night I witnessed a
Murder. A. party was held in a
fashionable house on the wealthy
side of town. One lady stepped out
onto the patio for a breath of
fresh air.
Suddenly a man leaped from
behind a tree, grabbed her and
dragged her into some bushes.
Because of the noise from the
party, no one heard her screams.
He strangled her and removed
her jewels.
Then he ran across the lawn
and vaulted overa stone wall. In
a few moments, I heard a car
speed away.
The murderer didn't notice me
because I was safe in my living
room and he was on the TV
screen. It was only the beginning
of my evening' s entertainment.
The distraught husband hired a
private detective to track down
his wife's killer. That was his
biggest mistake. The private eye
discovered that he paid someone
to murder his wife, because she
wouldn't grant him a divorce.
The theft of the jewels and the
retention of the investigator were
only cover-ups.
I knew the hero would solve the
mystery; he always does.
Someone tried to run his car off
the road, and two thugs roughed
him up. But he bounced right
back into action, because he was
the star of the show.
Did you ever notice the TV bad
guys are usually poor shots? A
criminal waits in ambush; he
takes careful aim and misses.
The good guy flops to the ground,
firing his gun as he falls, and the
fugitive is wounded.
A chase scene often begins on a
traffic-congested city street, but
the two cars quickly find a
secluded, winding road on which
to maneuver.
Deciphering a TV crime show
d. ,n't strain my brain much.
Last night's yarn unraveled step-
fr. step, until I understand what
h inened.
I was confident the detective
would reveal the plot and the
police would arrive just in time to
save his life. He couldn't die
because his network contract
hadn't expired and the Neilson
ratings hadn't dumped his show.
When his program is cancelled,
it will probably be replaced by
another detective or police
series. Crime shows come and go.
The names, faces and settings
change, but the stories remain
basically the same and the
violence continues.
I can watch a police, detective
or lawyer's drama every night of
the week. On some evenings, two
or three such programs are
available, Those of you with
cable TV have a much wider
choice. For variety, the networks
insert numerous movies, and
many of these are mysteries as
well.
Violence on TV doesn't upset
me. I know the fights and falls
are staged by stunt men, 1 know
the blood is only make-up, and
when the cameras stop filming,
the actor will get up.
I wonder, though, what hap-
pens to a generation that grows
up seeing violence every day.
How do its members distinguish
real life situations from the
vicarious TV roles? As they
mature, do they regard violence
nonchalantly?
The defenders of TV
programming advise, "If you
don't want your kids to watch
violent shows, keep them away
from the TV."
That's easier said than done
when gun-blazing westerns and
bloody "thrillers" begin as early
as seven p.m. The weekend
programing resembles the for-
mat of week nights. On the
weekend, however, you can't
send the kids to bed early with the
excuse, "You've got to go to
school tomorrow."
Each network provides some
type of crime show every night.
As long as this policy continues,
the viewers will find it difficult to
avoid seeing violence.

Exeter women
on bus trip
Seven women from the Exeter
Presbyterian church were among
the 120 members of the May 7
centennial bus trip of the
Women's Missionary Society of
the Stratford Presbyterial.
In the Niagara Falls area, the
women visited Fort George, St.
Anglican's Presbyterian Church
at Niagara-on-the-Lake, St.
Mark's Anglican Church and Mt.
Carmel Chapel. They were also
given a guided tour of the city of
Niagara Falls and visited the
Skylon tower.
The trip was held instead of the
annual June conference, because
of the Presbyterian Centennial
year.
