What's on TV? Monday, February 28, 1966



Following Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall special with Judy Garland and Bill Cosby, NBC presents its version of CBS's successful "National Test" series (National Driving Test, National Citizenship Test, etc.), called Testing: How Quick is Your Eye? It's the second of four such planned programs, hosted by Frank McGee, with reports by Robert MacNeil, and TV Guide inlcludes a scoresheet for viewers to play along. Among the questions into which the program delves is the reliability of eyewitness testimony in trials. The show hopes to demonstrate "some of the factors that influence and even distort our visual perception." I see, and you can see it as well, in this week's Northern California edition.
