Milton Patrick, Oklahoma National Commander Gentlemen, while we are awaiting the National President, let me say at this point that I welcome you to your National Headquarters. I wish time would permit me to go down each one of these aisles and mention the individ- ual visits I have had with many of you, and thank you for the many courtesies that have been extended to me and in many instances to my wife. I want you to know the deep feeling that I have for all of you. I am deeply proud to serve as your National Commander, and I am sure that other former Commanders before me had the feeling that I have in my Commanders and my NEC. It is truly nice to welcome you to our National Headquarters, and at a later point, I will make some observations. At this point, we have the National President here, and so would Seaborn Collins and “Tiny” Reed escort the National President and her distinguished group to the rostrum. The National President and members of the Auxiliary were escorted to the rostrum amidst the applause of the delegation. National Vice Commander Font assumed the Chair. NATIONAL COMMANDER PATRICK: Don’t they look lovely? Madam President, welcome. NATIONAL PRESIDENT MRS. H. MILTON DAVIDSON: Thank you, I am very happy to be here. I brought quite a few of my people along with me. NATIONAL COMMANDER PATRICK: First let me say, Marcella, on behalf of the Legionnaires here, and as the National Commander, I want to tell you of the deep pride that I have in you. 6 Proceedings of Wednesday, May 6, 1970 You know, I go across this Nation, and I encounter the National President. I have also been to Mexico twice. And I can tell you, she is a most gracious, lovely, wonderful person. She is a credit to our organization. And I assure you, gentlemen, she is like myself, seeking ways of doing things to further the cause of this country that we love so much. I know of no person who is more representative of the American way of life than this lovely, gracious, wonder- ful person. So I am proud to present to you, Marcella Davidson, from the National Auxiliary. MBS. H. MILTON DAVIDSON, New Mexico National President American Legion Auxiliary Mr. Commander and members of your National Executive Committee, I long looked forward to today, to be able to come over and to present you a small gift to carry out our joint theme of “Unity and Service for America.” I have brought with me a spring bouquet, and I hope that you will use it here in your National Headquarters.

SPANISH BROADCASTING SYSTEM, INC. Nancy A. Ory Paul A. Cicelski Laura M. Berman Lerman Senter PLLC 2001 L Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 Tel. (202) 429-8970 April 19, 2017 Their Attorneys -ii- SUMMARY In this Petition, WSBS Licensing, Inc. and its parent company Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today.
