...promote a three-hour telethon they will host on HBO to raise money for health-care organizations serving the homeless in 18 cities. Scheduled to air from Los Angeles next week, Comic Relief will feature a gaggle of gagsters for every age group, from Michael J. Fox to Henny Youngman. HBO will let cable operators make the broadcast available to all subscribers by unscrambling the signal.
