..Tim Matheson’s
personal quest
The Quest has begun to
rub off on one of its stars,
“1 Tim Matheson. Once a col
lege-bred liberal, he’s
become a staunch advocate
of the law of the West - the
kind of instant justice you
just can’t get in today’s
labyrinth of a criminal
justice system.
“We’ve got things all
backwards today,” says the
concerned young actor. “I
— feel that if a person breaks
a law in our society, he for
feits his rights. I believe in
justice and the law and the
— necessity of proving guilt,
' but if all that is taken care
of, the criminal must be
punished.
“There are no crimes any
more. It’s all for a cause.
The Harrises claim they are
not doing anything wrong. I
don’t buy that. How many
innocent people get killed
by people with a cause who
— ‘aren’t doing anything
wrong?’ Don’t the innocent
have rights?”
All of this discussion came
out of a recently filmed
scene from an episode of
The Quest, in which he and
Kurt Russell, as the
Baudine brothers, seek out
and execute some men who
were guilty of lynching. He
says he appreciated that ■
form of justice, but is quick
to assert he is not a raving
fascist.
“I am a liberal in the
sense that I am anti-war. 1
was behind the student
demonstrations -• I didn't
participate but I agreed. I
used to be extremely liberal
in the terms of civil liberties
and prison reform, and in
many ways I still am. But
when it comes down to
rights, everyone is
ultimately responsible for
himself. It’s not society
that's at fault. The problem
today is no one is taking
that responsibility.”
Matheson is also a strong
advocate of patriotism.
“What’s wrong with loving
your country? Sure, it
makes a lot of mistakes, but
we can help correct them.
To me this last Fourth of
July was a great day,
because we were all united
in a common American
ism."
Americanism and the
Western are to Matheson
synonymous, so he’s quite
pleased with his role in the
new series, the first of what
may become a revival in TV
Westerns. "Westerns are the
American version of

"I entered through th«

there and heard the speec™

I suddenly thought, 'Whatj
am I doing here? This is
another fine mess I’ve got
ten myself into.”'
When it turned out to be
far from a mess, Matheson
decided to work further in
the theatre. Most recently,
he appeared in Shaw's
“Man of Destiny.”
But he still respects the
world of video and film. “I
had an inverse snobbery. I
believed the stage is where
it’s at for an actor. Not any
more. Now I respect stage
and film actors equally.”
So if the show’s a success,
he'll stick with it because,
afterall, he can’t beat “get

every Friday evening for
fun as kids. We are acting
out our fantasy, riding
horses and being heroes.”
