What Mr.. Allen was relating
with word. picture and inter-
view-was the story OF the Sum
day afternoon shooting Of that
two-bit hoodlum who took on
the New York Police Department
and lost. There was nothing
wrong with the Allen motive, of
course. He had a point of view
and a social comment to make
decrying the festive mood dis
played by many of the specta-
tors attending this gun battle.
He merely gave his point q
passing slap. however. He spent
most of the half-hour rehashing
Sundays events. from the mo-
ment Jayne dropped him off on
her way to visit Audrey to his
parting look at the deceased.
He was a good "a hours late
with his news flashes so far as
television was concerned. Walter
Cronkite, to name one, had al
ready fully covered the story
on his Sunday News Special"
(seen here over WTTG). The
morning papers had played it,
the evening papers had wound it
up and inferred it.
It may still have been a topic
of Manhattan conversation, but
in that great nowhere that west
of New York is to New Workers,
this yarn was as dead as its CEN
trail figure by Monday midnight.
If Mr.. Allen aims to do an occa-
sional serious documentary on
his 1880 p.m.-to-1 am. TV
show, that's just fine. But his
documents had better have a
little fire in them instead Of the
