This year’s ceremony was held in the Interna- tional Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel, and was aired i over 70 stations .in the United States and in 22 foreign coun- tries. Locally, tele- vision viewers who are not cable subscribers, were able to see the awards on Channel 38, WOLF-TV, the newest and only independent station in the area. The presentation produced, directed, and written by Gene Weed and Ken Shapiro for the Dick Clark Co. Inc., was a simple, entertaining, and well-paced production free of lavish production numbers and monotonous acceptance speeches. Charlton Heston and Donna Mills hosted the 43rd annual event and introduced such presenters as Diahann Carroll, Richard Chamber- lain, William Devane, Patty Duke, Faye Dunaway, Shelley Long, BBVA ET ATC i BACK VIDEQ 078-0199 ROUTE 309, DALLAS J2 - 5 Sundays Howie Mandell, Jennifer O'Neill, Robert Stack and Peter Strauss. Gladys Knight, Janie Fricke, and Lou Rawls entertained the audience by singing the best original song nominees: “A View to Kill,” “The Power of Love,” “Rhythm of the Night,” “We Don’t Need Another Hero,” and the award-winning ‘‘Say You Say Me” from “White Nights,” Lionel Richie.

Jon Voight was a surprise, being named best actor for his role in ‘Runaway Train,” as was ‘Murder, She Wrote’’ announced as best tele- vision series-drama.
