The Third Man
Congressman John Anderson is the third man in the 1980 race for the White House. Six months ago his rating in the opinion polls was zero. Today it stands at around 25 per cent, posing a serious threat to the main contenders CARTER and REAOAN.
Anderson's dramatic and unexpected rise in the opinion polls stems from the Americans' increasing disillusionment with their plight. They are attracted to Anderson's apparently honest answers to America's pressing problems. The prospect of a President Anderson, unthinkable a few months ago, is no longer dismissed as pure fantasy.
Peter Taylor reports that if Anderson's popularity continues to increase, his campaign as an independent may have a profound effect on the November election. Carter and Reagan could be denied an outright majority and the election would depend on the Congress for the first time in 150 years.

Arillo, Texas, 1873. Taunted by the town sheriff, Pardon Chato - an Apache half-breed - shoots the man in self-defence and rides out of town. A vicious posse decide to follow him, seeking revenge and a revival of the old hatred felt towards the Indians. Gradually Chato draws them into his own territory and the man-hunt takes a macabre turn as the 13 men find that they are no match for Chato's cunning and strength.
