The new daytime daily was un bottled by ABC-TV Monday and after watching it twice, I suggest they put the stopper back in. It's not that Across the Board (and into the trees?) is so awful, it's just that it's another dull, witless commonplace addition to a dull witless,, commonplace daytime schedule. There's not much point in tossing another chunk of frib ble into a pot already thick with tedium. Across the Board is a game show which means you have to be pretty game to stick with it. This time, it's one of those crossword puzzle things with two customers thrown against each other in a contest to fill in the spaces. the contestants are given car toon as well as verbal clues and for the first couple of days, it was all absurdly easy. Just to give you an idea of some of the lirst day puzzler words: bat, bag, ade, tar, file. On the second day. the answers were stepped up to Social Security ReplacesWage Your social security payment may help you when you need it most. According to Vernon A Welo, district manager of the La Grande social office, social security payments are intended as a partial replacement of your lost earnings. Social security is meant to pro vide a basic level of income. The person who is no longer working for wages or operating a business, but who is eligible for social se curity payments, may rely on Ills social security check to par tially replace the lost earnings. In this way it will permit him to arrange for his financial needs. There is an earnings test for the persons under age 72 who has not substantially retired. It is possible for such an individual to work throughout the year, earn as much as $2,080.00, and still receive one month's benefit payment. If you do not earn ov er $1,200,000 a year, it is possible to draw benefits for the entire year. After reaching the age of 72, there is no limit on your earnings. However, until age 72, you should contact your social security office if you retire, or if you have re duced earnings. If you have any questions concerning social secur- ty, write, phone or call at the La Grande social security office. DRAFTEE FINALLY BOOTED KASSEL, Germany UPI) Grenadier . Hans Mtith, 21, today had his own pair of boots for the first time since he was drafted into the army two months ago. The 7 foot 7 inch Muth needed size 13 boots, and they had to be ordered specially. the level of stupidity: idle, molar, terse, near. " Emcee Ted Brown, thank good ness, doesn't seem to take the whole business very seriously. Tuesday, he gave a lady an an swer instead of her clue and just let the whole mess slide by. No body seemed to care very much and I would say that about sums up my feeling about the show, too. Short Shots: NBC-TV's Jack Paur announced - on his show Tuesday night that he had talked by phone with ailing Jonathan Winters who reported he was feeling much belter. I would class that as wonderful news Winters is one of a handful of genuinely creative comics and TV sorely needs his peculiar genius. Nickey Persoff notched a solid performance Tuesday night in an ABC-TV Naked City episode that was strictly blah. David Niven, this year's Academy Award win ner, won't add any trophies to his shelf as a result of his first act ing chore on NBC-TV's David Niven Show Tuesday night he turned in a mechanical job in a mechanical drama and back to hosting for him. The Channel Swim: Some of the possibilities for CBS-TV's Play house 90 next season: An adapta tion of Flaubert's "Madame Bo vary"; A. E. Hotchner's "The Walls Came Tumbling Down," a study of the bombing of places of worship; "Goodbye, My Fancy," an adaptation of the Broadway play by Faye Kanin; a Tad Mosel original, "Home Ground"; a Da vid Karp original, "Man in Hid ing"; and a Rod Serling study of the Warsaw Ghetto during the Nazi occupation, "An Illusion of Darkness.'' i The final Playhouse 90 this sea son on June 25 will be a Merle Miller adaptation of the recent John Phillips novel, "The Second Happiest Dav". 1 NRC-TV's Mnn. day night special, "Summer on Ice, picked up a whopping 33.3 Trendex rating.

My throttle stuck!" ANN LANDERS, Answers Your Problems Dear Ann; "Forget the heel" is easy to say but when you're in love, what do you do? The problem: I got a divorce he didn't. He tells me he doesn't care one thing about his wife, but he must stay with her until their youngest daughter is married. When he was in a financial bind I loaned him money. I haven't seen a penny of it back. I've giv en him 10 years of my life, and passed up two good chances to get married, I've sat alone night after night while he took his wife to eountrv club affairs. Ltttle does she know the car he's driv ing belongs to me. Last month they had a 20th wedding annivers ary. I was so miserable I could have blown by brains out. The only ray of hope is this: Since we met he has stopped playing around, and I know he's completely mine. I'm sure he loves me. . .What to do? D. P. Dear Ot P.: He's stopped playing round? I hava news, Lady; what ' do you think he's doing with you. Tho bast advice I can g),viiyou Is found in the three opening words of your let tor. Please. check. Door Ann: I'm a bachelor, age 30, with a good job, a fair bank account, a paid-for house and I m not harcyo look at. I'm thinking seriously' of. asking a certain young lady, to maryy me. I'm not head over heels in love but I've decided to make a selec tion before the first half of this year Ls gone. This girl is the best prospect in sight. I'm viewing marriage with an objective and practical eye. She's 23, a college graduate, loves kids (so do I) and above all, she's sensible. I've told her I'm not nuts about her, but she says it doesn't matter because she's nuts enough about me to make up for both of us. Does this sound like'' it could be a good marriage? (P.S. Have you noticed the pick in's are getting worse every -year?) Zanzibar. Dear Zanzibar: The pickin"t -aren"t getting worse you're just getting more particular. If yo have leveled with this girl, and -' she's willing, then go ahead. You may be one of those guys who'' isn't capable of going nut over anybody. Lasting love it a do' velopmental thing, and the fact that a "sensible" girl appeals to you indicates you hava soma' sense yourself. Another point in your favor is you didn't mem' tbn her dimensions, Bravo and'' good luckl 0 ' " To learn how to keep your boy': friend in line without losing him, send for Ann Landers' new book: let, "Necking and Petting" And How Far To Go," enclosing with your request 20 cents in coin and a large, self-addressed stamped' envelope.
