Iowa: Partly cloudy and warmer today throuoh Fri By Bob Lundegaard Staff Writer It was supposed to be a cliff-hanger, an election that would turn us into a nation of insomniacs if we insisted on knowing who our next president would be before we went to bed Tuesday night Instead, thanks to a new surveying technique called the exit poll, it was over for many of us before we even got to vote. At least it was if we watched the election returns on NBC, which declared the election over at 7:15 p.m., Minneapolis time. Those of us who kept our dials tuned to CBS were wondering why Jimmy Carter was conceding before Walter Cronkite did. If the networks' election coverage was a footrace, NBC clearly won, with CBS a distant third and ABC roughly halfway between them.

But it wasn't a footrace. It was a deadly serious business that NBC demeaned by its rush to judgment Well, two can play at that game. I only saw three minutes of NBCs coverage Tuesday night but based on that plus exit polls of two people racing from the Tribune building at deadline time, I declare NBC the loser of the electoral sweepstakes. ing the winner, the three networks' were roughly comparable in their presentation of the reasons for Reagan's victory, partly because those reasons were obvious. Reagan did better than expected among blue-collar workers, women, Jews.

sure, but why? Of more interest was a question Cronkite twice directed at Bruce. Morton on CBS's Trend Desk: Why did the polls miss the Reagan land- slide? Morton gave two answers. At 8, he blamed "closet Reagan voters" who didn't confide in the pollsters. After midnight, he said that "clearly there was a lot of last-minute move-; ment" that the polls didn't catch. That assumes that the polls were accurate when they were taken last weekend, which strikes me as ques-' tionable.

Cronkite, in his election-night vale-! dlctory on his 64th birthday, tried to recoup with repeated bits of trivia about the president-elect: The first California resident at the time of his first election (a niggling distinction, but it ruled Nixon out), the first nois native, the first sports the first Las Vegas emcee. You missed one, Walter. Ronald Wilson Reagan will be the first president whose middle name is the same as the last name of a former presi-. dent. hand somewhat.

Just before Carter began his concession speech at 8:55, ABC was giving Ronald Reagan 266 electoral votes four short of the total he needed to win. Then it added New York's 41 votes to Reagan's total, declaring him the winner. CBS, meanwhile, was holding steady at 222 electoral votes for Reagan. Not until 9:30, or more than a half-hour after Carter had finished speaking, did Cronkite announce dramatically that the Louisiana vote had given Reagan the election. By that time NBC had lost Interest in this election and was projecting the 1984 winner.

1984. If the year has a sinister, 0r-welllan ring to it so be it. Time was when the networks were rebuked for naming a winner before everyone had voted. Before long, they may be naming a winner before anyone has voted. ABC, to its credit was also more accurate than CBS on the contents of Carter's phone call to Reagan an hour earlier.

ABC called It a concession. Cronkite, reading a message relayed to him, called it a "partial concession," then wondered aloud what in the world that meant. Good question. Aside from their differences in call day. Highs today in Ihe low 40s In the northeast to me low 70s In the southwest.

Void after December 27, 1980) 3P Anybody could love "The Stunt Man," but it's a movie that movie nuts will love best of all: a great gleeful game of galloping gotcha from beginning to end. There are gotchas within gotchas, just as there is a movie within the movie, and a few of the gotchas may even be those you make up yourself as you begin to feel almost as paranoid as the central character in the picture. The fun starts when a couple of California patrolmen collar a wild-eyed young fugitive at a roadside cafe. The wanted-one distracts the cops and scampers off into the brush locked in handcuffs. Not long after that having chanced upon a lineman's wire cutters and hacked the handcuffs apart the fugitive takes part in a strange little drama in which the driver of a vintage Duesenberg tries to run him down on a lonely country bridge.

Then the car disappears in the middle of the bridge. The fugitive, played by Steve Rails-back, presently discovers that he has wandered into the middle of a scene being filmed for a Hollywood movie. A helicopter swoops down to bridge level and he finds himself being stared at by no less a pair of eyes than those great blank, enigmatic orbs of Peter OToole, the adult male Orphan Annie of the movies, in this case playing the director of the movie within, a tempermental egomaniac named Eli Cross. The eyes stare for a few telling moments, and then the helicopter roars away. The fugitive next encounters the movie company on a California beach where they are filming a World War I battle scene.

More movie trickery. The fugitive sees a frail old woman fall into the ocean and jumps in to rescue her, only to discover that she is the war movie's beautiful young heroine in old-age make-up. Cops arrive on the beach to question the movie crew about a stunt man drowned in a Duesenberg he has driven off a bridge. And to alert the movie folks to be on the alert for the fugitive. The director, in a moment of inspiration, passes off the fugitive as Burt, fir keep getting tangled up within one another, but there are additional delightful gotchas as members of the film crew work elaborate, witty practical jokes on one another.

And then, for customers who remember Railsback for his role as Charles Manson in the TV movie "Helter Skelter," there's an additional gotcha factor going here. Rails-back comes on with those same intense, burning, Mansonesque eyes. The matter of precisely why he is wanted remains a mystery for a long, long time, and those mad eyes contribute to the build-up of audience concern about his guilt or innocence of God-knows-what heinous offenses. God? That could be Cross, enthroned on his high-flying crane, who keeps swooping in and out of the lives of his cast and crew, at times popping into scenes like some cloud-borne deity. When he's actually accused of playing God with the lives of his film company, the director answers, "If God could do the tricks that we can do, He'd be a happy man." In this film, God could be trying to play Eli Cros.

And when the O'Toole eyes meet the Railsback eyes, God and the Devil themselves could be squaring off. Their final confrontation sends audiences out of the theater grinning as they conjecture. Director Richard Rush claims to have spent nine years trying to get someone in Hollywood to let him make this movie. His perseverance is to be cheered, along with Melvin Simon, the movie-minded money man who saw the light. Rush adapted the movie notion from a novel by Paul Brodeur, and Lawrence B.

Marcus did the final screenplay. Mario Tosi was director of photography, and a couple of dozen stunt men busted their buns for his cameras on the land, in the air and under the the stuntman who drove the Duesenberg, claiming Burt made a miraculous underwater escape. Railsback now becomes Burt, the stunt man. He's welcome to keep the cover as long as he performs some very dangerous stunts the director needs yet to film. And that's just the beginning of all the inspired nuttiness afoot here, folks.

Is this crazy director really protecting a dangerous fugitive from the law? Is he just trying to get some difficult action scenes out of the Railsback character before letting him get killed off? Or does the director, as he claims, really take inspiration from the strange, intense young man who has wandered onto his set? When the film's often-frustrated writer wonders why Cross is taking such chances with an amateur who is wanted by the police, the director explains patiently: "He helps me to understand the young man in our story." To the new stunt man himself the director adds, "I've fallen madly in love with the dark side of your nature." Anyway, World War I rages merrily around southern California, with Our Hero in the thick of it when the going is rough, to be replaced by the film's star hero in the closeups. And the audience for "The Stunt Man" is left never quite knowing what's real, what's trickery and which is meant to be which. That's about the same position the newly anointed Burt is in most of the time. The war movie's heroine, played by Barbara Hershey, impressed at the lad's gallantry in rescuing her when he thought she was an old woman, falls in love with him. But how much is real love, and how much is movie magic? The Rails-back character has occasion to wonder about that sometimes, too.

She does rock and roll tunes and numbers like the first set's "That's the Way Love Is" in her own distinctive way but with a surprising toughness and vigor, drops it all down for a tender reading of "Lover Man," the Billy Holiday hit then brings the energy level back up for what was the the first-set finale, the gospel tune "What About the Price." Despite the uncomfortably hot temperature in the room during the first set which had Muldaur fanning herself frantically with a Japanese fan during the instrumental breaks, the singer delivered an emphatic version of the jazz tune "Wheelers and Dealers," which she dedicated to the "greed heads of the world" and specifically to Ronald Reagan, and later took up a fiddle during a chorus of "My Tennessee Mountain Home." In all, it was an enjoyable set by a versatile, accomplished singer, a singer one hopes gets the chance to ride the record charts one more time. ONLY 4 PERFORMANCES LEFT ter.

Her career seems at low ebb at the moment however. She according to reports, without the support of a record label her last LP, on Warner was released over a year ago. Apparently she finds herself in a position not unique in today's music business: Having followed her own lights for a number of years and having obviously developed and matured as a performer and singer, she finds, nonetheless, a dwindling audience as she becomes increasingly harder to categorize to put in a specific box in order for the record companies and managers to sell. She hasn't taken care of business, in other words. Hence, she finds herself playing the bar circuit where she began in the mid '60s only In those days it was the folk clubs.

And it could be argued that Muldaur's light-textured, seductive-sounding soprano, while so effective in jazz material, fits into neither the blues-rock mode nor the kind of raucous rock clubs (like the By Michael Anthony Staff Writer Though claiming to be "bummed out" by the results of the presidential election, singer Maria Muldaur put on a rousing show at the Union Bar Tuesday night performing a set that ranged from jazz ballads to gospel to rock and roll. The 38-year-old Muldaur (born Maria Grazia Rosa Domenica d'Amato) first came to the attention of the public with the release in 1974 of "Midnight At the Oasis," an off-beat jazz-Influenced tune that was one of the biggest selling and most appealing singles of that year.
