The first of two programmes reporting on an adventurous scheme for dealing with America's teenage offenders.
1: The Last Chance Wagon Train Narrated by Michael Dean
In Arizona, the heart of the American Wild West, 80 tough young delinquents were offered the choice of staying behind bars or joining a 1,500-mile trek by wagon train to Denver, Colorado. They are put through an experience as tough as they themselves pretend to be.
The film is a frank and often disturbing account of a unique experiment in dealing with young criminals, particularly relevant when the figures for teenage crime in this country appear to be on the increase.

Beyond the Dragon's Mouth Shiva Naipaul in Trinidad
' In some ways I would say that the island has changed more than I have done. On my sporadic visits I walk the hot streets of Port-of-Spain-not quite an outsider, but no longer a native ...' shiva naipaul returned, after 18 years, to his native Trinidad to make this film. His family came from India to provide indentured labour on the sugar-cane plantations of Caroni - the island's rural heartland. Today, like many families in Trinidad, they enjoy the benefits that are the product of an oil economy. But the prosperity is shallow, and Naipaul has grave doubts about the economic political, and cultural future of the island.

A season of films featuring one of the screen's most powerful actors. with Lee Remick , George Segal
A strangler is on the loose in New York. The victims are always middle-aged women and the killer always attacks in a different outrageous disguise. Rod Steiger 's virtuoso performance as the murderer, who commits his crime in a variety of disguises, dominates this skilful black comedy, in which a bizarre camaraderie develops between the killer and the harassed detective trying to track him down.
Screenplay by JOHN GAY , based on the novel by WILLIAM GOLDMAN Produced by SOL C. SIEGEL Directed by JACK SMIGHT Films: page 16

The US Grand Prix - Detroit
The latest race at Monaco was one of the most dramatic in Grand Prix history and has thrown the drivers' championship wide open. Only six points separate the top six drivers, led by Alain Prost , with Britain's John Watson in second place.
Today's race is the first ever through the streets of Detroit and the circuit, similar to Monaco - narrow and with 20 corners-winds its way through the sky-scrapers of a city famous for its manufacture of automobiles.
