AIRES, Adak, Alaslsa, is an \
affiliate of the United j
States Armed Forces Radio
& Television Service, De- \
partment of Defense. Infbr- ;
mation is taken from Tele- I
Tips 2-62, a publication;
of AFRTS, Los Angeles.
Special programing will be j
announced over AFRS Radio \
10:30 to 11:30 Monday thru |
Friday on Adak's Private j
Line and over AFTV on Par- 1
ade. This schedule is sub-?
ject to change, •
What about the programing on Channel 8? We've had
!a few comments about the programs and movies we show
[here at AFTV, It seems there's some dissatisfaction
jbecause we don't always show programs as they are
(publicized.
| Our allowance here at Channel 8 is determined by
; the Bureau <£ Naval Personnel, With our current staff
;it’s virtually impossible to preview all of our pro
I grams for content. Therefore we use the information
from Tele-Tips, published by AFRTS Los Angeles,
Tele-Tips recently stated that the movie, "Road
to Singapore11, starred Bob Hope and Bing Crosby and
was the first of the "Road11 movies. The staff, with
some of our more courageous viewers waited almost 2
hours ,for Bing and Bob to make an appearance, Alas,
when "The End" flashed across the screen, they still
hadn't shown up. Somewhere along the line someone
second guessed the title . and passed incorrect inftr
mation on to us. Usually, though, there is little
cause for complaint on AFRTS advance programing.
By comparing the Nielson ratings to oUS schedule
we found that we run 7 of the top 10 and 28 of the
top 35 shows in the nation. No station in the lower
48 can match that record,
& u
This Friday evening we'll present an information
special,“Vincent van Gogh-A Self-Portrait1'., 6:30
will be the air time for this presentation tracing
the life of van Gogh in the artist's own words and
through his drawings and paintings, many of which
are being shown on film for the first time.
How about a stroll through New York's Central
Park? Saturday at 8:00, if you like, we'll take a
long look at the park and a child's Wonderful World
of Toys. Birpo Marx will be our silent emcee, Carol
Burnett acts as Ifcrpo’s voice. Song stylists Edie
Adams and Merv Griffin lend their talents to the pro
ceedings cn the DuPont Show of the Week Saturday rate
at 8:00.
Nite Owlers for the week, are Frisco Kid and All
This and Heaven Too. The Frisco Kid-will be Thurs
day's movie. Jimmy Cagney stars with Margaret Lind
say. Bette Davis, Charles Boyer and Barbara O'Neill
will star in All This and Heaven Too on Monday night
at 10:00, a romance whetted by murder, suicide and
scandal. From all indications this should be an ex
cellent week on AFTV. Mike Potts, J03
