To fill the hours the networks pulled out all the stops and scheduled an impressive array of names. ABC commissioned Duke Ellington to write and perform a piece of music, Moon Maiden. The network also 1) lined up Steve Allen to sit down at a piano and discourse on the moon and romance in popular music, 2) called together a panel of scientists and science-fiction...
