Mexico reports on his recent
participation in the First In-
ternational Festival of the
New Latin American
Cinema celebrated last
December in Havana, Cuba.
“This one-hour Spanish
language program,” ex-
plains Diaz, "is a documen-
tary on the history, develop-
ment and future of Third
World cinema. I wanted to
report on the goals, relevan-
ce and importance of the
festival to independent film-
makers, so the program
features interviews with a
number of directors,
producers and actors.” Also
featured is music recorded
live during the festival.

According to Perez Luna,

the cultural aspects of life in

films which have emerged
from the barrio.” Puerto

Bradley replaces Rather
NEW YORK (UPI)—Ed
Bradley officially has been
given the job that's been his
on the rumor mill for mon-
ths, replacing Dan Rather
on “60 Minutes” when
Rather takes Walter
Cronkite’s job.
No definite date has been
set, but it will'be sometime
next spring, probably in
March.
. “No one really knows for
sure when I’ll start working
and doing actual pieces for
“60 Minutes,” Bradley said
after accepting
congratulations on his new
post.
“There’s been no
timetable set up. It all starts
with Walter and when he will
step down. The general
feeling is that Dan will be
gone from the show next
season.”
“I’ve filed away a couple
of things, good story
ideas—which I won’t men-
tion now because I’m not
going to start working
tomorrow and I wouldn’t
want someone else to do
them.”
Bradley’s career with CBS
News began in Saigon in
1972. He was reassigned to
Washington in June 1974,
served as CBS News White
House correspondent from
November 1976 through Sep-
tember 1978, when he was
named a principal
correspondent for CBS
Reports.
He also anchors the CBS
Sunday Night News, and
doesn’t know if he will con-
tinue in the job after he
begins work on “60
Minutes.”
Bradley enjoys the
traveling that will be part of
his new job and likes the
idea of “doing a little bit of
everything.”
“I’m not coming onto ‘60
Minutes’ as a black
specialist,” he said in an-
swer to a question, but ad-
ded, “I do have a different
perspective because I hap-
pen to be black.”
Over all, the first week in
September was a good one
for NBC. The network came
in second in the Nielsen
ratings for the week, with
ABC in first and CBS in last
place. Its broadcast of the
Miss America Pageant was
the top-rated show for the
week ending Sept. 7. That
was the good news. The bad
news was the Emmy broad-
cast tied for 32nd place
because of the actors’
boycott, instead of landing
among the top 10 where it
usually resides.
Fred Silverman, in a talk
Tuesday before the
Hollywood Radio and
Television Society, com-
mented on NBC's bad luck.
“The way things are
going,” he said, "I’m con-
vinced if ‘Dallas’ were on
NBC, whoever took a shot at
J.R. would have missed.”

Spindletop Museum has
obtained 20 of the last 100
new and uncirculated copies
of the book “Spindletop,”
David L. Hartman, director
of museum services, said.
The book, written by
Michel T. Halbouty and
James A. Clark is, ac-
cording to Hartman, “The
authoritative work on the
Spindletop oil field.”
The book was first
published in 1952 and went
through four printings, Hart-
man said. The books ob-
tained by the museum are
from the fourth printing
which "has long since sold
out.”
According to Hartman,
Eugene Spruel, a book
dealer from Louisiana, pur-
chased the last 100 copies of
the book and stopped at
Spindletop Museum on his
way back to Louisiana to ask
if the museum wanted some
of the books. Spruel is the
only national dealer of the
book, and the museum has
the only new and un-
circulated copies in Texas,
Hartman said.
Copies of the book will cost
535 each and are available in
the Gladys City gift shop.
The books are the “last of
the run available,” Hartman
said. “We are pleased to an-
nounce their availability.”
