DARRELL BOB HOUSTON, author of the catching-on novel, "King of The Midnight Blues," caught a lot of flak after last week's appearance on Ch. 5's "Tonight, Tonite". show. The novel, based loosely on the exploits of D.B. Cooper, the parachuting skyjacker, aroused much ire — particularly from author- pilot Ernie Gann, who labeled Houston an "op- portunist" for glorifying D.B.
