What's on TV? Thursday, September 8, 1960

As you know, when I'm writing up the Saturday TV Guide, I always like to leave something for today, and in this case, it's part one of the two-part Untouchables episode "The Unhired Assassin," the story of the mob's contract on Chicago mayor Anton Cermak, which overlaps with Joseph Zangara's determination to assassinate president-elect Franklin Roosevelt. The Roosevelt element, at the very least, is based on truth, but was Capone's gang really after Cermak? It's plausible. One thing that's beyond dispute is that today's listings come from the Nebraska State Edition, and contains a lot of familiar names.
