When Representative Kweisi Mfume walked into a hotel conference room here on Saturday to interview with the board of directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the group broke out into spontaneous applause. It was perhaps the first time in more than two years that the full board had found anything to cheer about. The organization is mired in debt and increasingly accused of being archaic and out of touch; Mr. Mfume, who was named on Saturday as its president and chief executive officer, is viewed by many within the civil rights group as a savior. So much so that the descriptions of him that flow from some quarters lapse effortlessly into hyperbole.

JUST because TV Guide says Fox's "Party of Five" is "the best show you're not watching" does not mean that executives from NBC, ABC and CBS are going to agree. Actually, because TV Guide is owned by the News Corporation, the same company that owns the Fox network, the decision to splash "Party of Five" on the magazine's cover this week, accompanied by a gushing story about the show's having "the cutest cast on TV," means that executives from the competing networks are going to disagree with a vengeance. In the case of NBC, it also means throwing in a veiled threat to stop advertising in TV Guide.
