He was The West Ranch High School Baseball and Theatre Programs one of those rare characters who appealed to millions through a in association with The Mathewson Foundation magnetic personality attached to clean honesty and undying loyalty present to a cause.” — Grantland Rice, sportswriter and friend “We need real heroes, heroes of the heart that we can emulate. Eddie Frierson We need the heroes in ourselves. I believe that is what this show you’ve come to see is all about. In Christy Mathewson’s words, in “Give your friends names they can live up to. Throw your BEST pitches in the ‘pinch.’ Be humble, and gentle, and kind.” Matty is a much-needed force today, and I believe we are lucky to have had him. I hope you will want to come back. I do. And I continue to reap the spirit of Christy Mathewson.” “MATTY” — Kerrigan Mahan, Director of “MATTY” “A lively visit with a fascinating man ... A perfect pitch!

  • 1 Testimony of Jose Cancela President & General
    TESTIMONY OF JOSE CANCELA PRESIDENT & GENERAL MANAGER, STATION WKAQ-TV FCC FIELD HEARING FEBRUARY 21, 2020 SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO 1. My name is Jose Cancela. I am President and General Manager of Station WKAQ-TV, San Juan, Puerto Rico. WKAQ, which is part of the NBCUniversal Owned Television Stations Division, offers multiple streams of free over-the-air broadcast programming, including locally produced and Telemundo Network programming on the primary channel, a Spanish-language multicast channel (Punto Dos), and a simulcast of WNBC, New York. The station offers 18 hours of locally produced news programming each week on its primary channel. 2. I would like to thank Commissioner Starks for traveling to Puerto Rico and organizing this important hearing on the resiliency of communications networks in Puerto Rico, and I appreciate the opportunity to highlight the challenges presented by the severe weather events we have faced in recent years. 3. During the first week of September 2017, Hurricane Irma – the first Category 5 hurricane of the 2017 season – put us on notice of what was to come. The government of Puerto Rico declared a state of emergency, and FEMA deployed response teams in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. While Puerto Rico did experience some damage and loss of electrical power, the storm moved north and did not hit us as hard as had been predicted. 4. But two weeks later, on September 20, Hurricane Maria devastated the island. With sustained winds of 155 miles per hour, the storm traversed the island from the southeast to the northwest over an eight-hour period, leveling everything in its path.
