"The Hidden Image," by David Karp, deals with politi cal integrity, and personal humanity and integrity, sub jects that much of today's na tional dialogue is concerned with. ' The author pressed home the point that only the dead are .invulnerable to tempta tion and it is the test of a man when he can fight it off.!The play's timely message is one thing, however, and its inef fectiveness is another. I felt Karp cluttered his story with too many gimmicks, inconsis tencies and contrived situa tions, to set i up his leading character, played by Franchot Tone, for the final display of undiluted integrity. Repttitiye Dialogue His straining to keep the play goiqg until the climactic last few minutes made for some rather repetitive dia logue and meaningless razzle dazzle in the play's middle. Tone,, as' an honest, but cold, impersonal political boss becomes, embroiled in an in vestigating committee's effort to discredit, him and, through him, his candidate for gover nor. The charge is that Tone fed juicy building contracts Births WADE To Mr. and Mrs. Cecil, route 1, box 348, Eagle Point, Nov. 12, 1959, boy, 8 lbs., at Medford Osteopathic hospital.

Real life cases of this sort have hadore excitement and im pact than this TV case. Couldn't See Evidence, The TV drama made fre quent use of TV hearings, conventions and speeches, to demonstrate how the medium has become a political tool.

At the end, Gabel tells him that he, Ga bel, really was using his friendship and was ready to repay Tone. Tone throws him out of the house. Next, Tone tells his wife how, as a young ster, he rejected a $20 bribe to sell a hunting license to an unqualified customer. Here, I thought, was a clearer moral struggle., I thought Karp would have had a more effec tive point, albeit a less flashy one, if he had focused on that incident. ' .
