Maverick (ABC, 7:30-8:30 p.m.). The summer reruns are finally over. In celebration. Maverick brings on Pappy, sire of the two most amiable scamps on the air. In this one, Jim Garner is still Bret, but he is also his own pappy, Beauregard. To compound the confusion, he also plays Bret impersonating Beauregard...
...Ugai remembered that strontium chloride combines with tannic acid to form an insoluble compound. From this he reasoned that strontium, instead of being deposited in the bones to do long-term damage, might be eliminated from the human system if there was enough tannic acid present. It worked in Dr. Ugai's laboratory, where mice stored up 30% less strontium in their bones when they also got tannic acid. Then he found that a standard brew of green or black tea worked like a weak solution of tannic acid...

One of Rod Heller's worries is that the supply of these precious mice may not keep pace with the demand...
...residential compound where the eight Americans lived in Bien Hoa, Master Sergeant Chester Ovnand finished a letter to his wife in Copperas Cove, Texas and dropped it in the mess-hall mailbox. Major Dale Buis of Imperial Beach, Calif, had arrived in Bien Hoa only two days before and was showing his new friends pictures of his three young sons. Two of the officers drifted off to play tennis; the other six men decided to watch a Jeanne Crain movie, The Tattered Dress, on their home projector in the grey stucco mess hall. While they were absorbed in the first...
