Wales v South Africa
(Colour)

France v Ireland

For the Sixth Springboks today's match against Wales at Cardiff Arms Park is their last International before they return home. Already beaten by Scotland and England, and with the dramatic draw by Ireland still a painful memory, they will be more than keen to avenge the name of South African Rugby football with a victory over the current holders of the Triple Crown and the International Championship.
For France - after their exciting win against Scotland at Murrayfield a fortnight ago-today's fixture offers the opportunity of consolidating their determined bid for International honours.

Happiness is Wheel-Shaped says Tom Wolfe in tonight's programme in this series of highly personal films.
Cars have always been dream symbols for the working American. But today it is not the mass-produced model from Detroit which dominates the lives of thousands of Californians but their own customised, sculpted machine-be it car, motorcycle, or even tricycle. In his One Pair of Eyes, the American writer Tom Wolfe explores some of the cults of the internal combustion engine which are currently obsessing Californians of all classes.

The weekly arts magazine presented by James Mossman

Obscenity and the Law: Swinging Britain may be seen as a permissive paradise from outside, but in fact obscenity laws are many and complex. Recently customs and police seizures have increased.
Tonight Review asks whether each man should be the sole judge of what is sexually good for him or whether authority should tell us what we should see or read - including run-of-the-mill pornography.
Among those appearing: Lord Soper, John Calder Dr John Robinson

The Scaffold turn their satirical scrutiny on to the permissive society and predict that in 1975 four-letter words and censorship are still major talking points in the arts - but in a way far different from today...
