These are the people who enjoy the full capabilities of their TV sets. Throughout America -in large cities or small communities -the cable delivers to them a large choice of TV programs in living color and crystal -clear black- and -white. CATV has dusted off their window to the world. It can do the same for everyone in America. Systems now under construction will provide their subscribers with up to 20 TV channels over a single cable. These include a wide selection of VHF and UHF broadcast channels and service channels, originated at the head -end, which can cover emergency warnings, time, weather, stock market quotations, and events of purely local interest such as high school sports, town meetings, concerts, etc. This audio -visual highway to our homes is recognized today to be an integral part of total communications. CATV has the down -to -earth potential of becoming the key contributor to total communications -the means whereby the broadest possible range of viewer interests will be served in the future. Techniques are presently being worked out to enable CATV to provide facsimile newspapers in the home, a home library reference service, full educational services, and even a method for shopping by cable. In fact, the future of CATV is limited only by the imagination. For complete information about why the CATV systems of tomorrow are equipped by Jerrold today, write CATV Systems Division, Dept.

Reviews Keith Loria, on theatermania.com, called the show “a tender glimpse into the Hineses’ rise to fame and a touching tribute to a brother.” Benjamin Tomchik wrote in Broadway World, that the show “seems determined not only to love the audience, but to entertain them, and it succeeds at doing just that! While Tappin' Thru Life does have some flaws, it's hard to find anyone who isn't won over by Hines showmanship, humor, timing and above all else, talent.” In The Washington Post, Nelson Pressley wrote, “’Tappin’ is basically a breezy, personable concert. The show doesn’t flinch from hard-core nostalgia; the heart-on-his-sleeve Hines is too sentimental for that. It’s frankly schmaltzy, and it’s barely written — it zips through selected moments of Hines’s life, creating a mood more than telling a story. it’s a pleasure to be in the company of a shameless, ebullient vaudeville heart.” Maurice Hines Is .

    King Sister Yvonne Burch Dies at 89

    King Sister Yvonne Burch dies at 89 (AP) – 4 hours ago SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Yvonne King Burch, who gained early fame as one of the singing King Sisters during the big band era before launching her entire extended musical clan into show business as the King Family, has died. She was 89. Burch died in a Santa Barbara hospital Sunday, where she was taken for injuries she suffered in a fall last week, said her daughter, Tina Cole. Burch was the matriarch of the King Family, a popular and enduring show business dynasty. She spent three decades singing and recording with the King Sisters, one of the most popular vocal groups of the 1930s and 1940s. A Grammy nomination for their Capitol Records album "Imagination" capped the group's career in 1959. In 1963, Burch conceived and produced a benefit concert with her sisters and three dozen relatives including brothers, husbands, wives, aunts, uncles and children that marked the debut of the King Family. The King Family appeared on "The Hollywood Palace" before headlining their own TV special. Strong fan response led to two variety series and 17 specials during the 1960s and 1970s. The family appeared on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and performed with entertainment legends, including Bing Crosby and Dean Martin. Besides landing a national concert tour, the clan recorded five albums for Warner Brothers. The family showcased its multigenerational talent with performances by the King Cousins and the King Kiddies. The King Sisters performed and toured with big bands led by Horace Heidt and Artie Shaw before starting their own orchestra with Luise King's husband, Alvino Rey.

MUSIC – Muddy Waters, Rollin’ Stone via Spotify (Play 30secs then turn down) It all started with Muddy Waters. A chance meeting between 2 old friends at Dartford railway station marked the beginning of 50 years of rock and roll. In the early 1950s, Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were childhood friends and classmates at Wentworth Primary School in Kent until their families moved apart.[8] In 1960, the pair met again on their way to college at Dartford railway station. The Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters records that Jagger carried revealed a mutual interest. They began forming a band with Dick Taylor and Brian Jones from Blues Incorporated. This band also contained two other future members of the Rolling Stones: Ian Stewart and Charlie Watts.[11] So how did the name come about? Well according to Richards, Jones christened the band during a phone call to Jazz News.

    Celebrating Uncommon Courage

    th Celebrating5 Annual Gala Uncommon Courage Hollywood, CA | March 28, 2018 Hosted by Lauren Ash Mission The California Fire Foundation, a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization, aids fallen firefighter families, firefighters and the communities they protect. Owned and operated by California Professional Firefighters (California Lou Paulson Professional Firefighters is the largest Chair of California Fire Foundation statewide organization dedicated exclusively President of California Professional Firefighters Over 30 years in the Fire Service to serving the needs of career firefighters), the California Fire Foundation’s mandate includes an array of survivor and victim assistance projects and community initiatives. Note from the Chair As a former career firefighter, I have experienced the shattering loss of comrades on the frontlines, and seen countless tragedies affecting the people and communities of this great state that I love. Not too long ago, we could expect fire season to last a couple of months, however the “new normal” we have come to endure is a year-long fire season. California’s ongoing drought has greatly exacerbated this compound threat to public safety, creating a deadly mix of hotter, more intense and more unpredictable fires. This current state of affairs has severely heightened the risk of life, limb and property of our citizens and our first responders. When tragedy strikes, whether it’s a fallen firefighter’s family at home or the station that are left behind, or the victims of fire and natural disaster that are left in peril, it is my priority, as Chair of the California Fire Foundation, to assist those impacted. We are there at every step, providing aid to our first responders, families of the fallen, and victims of devastating loss.

Webfooters Post Card Club PO Box 17240 Portland OR 97217-0240 www.thewebfooters.com Remembering the Wild, Wild Westerns Before Batman, before Star Trek and space travel to the moon, Westerns ruled prime time television. Warner Brothers stable of Western stars included (l to r) Will Hutchins – Sugarfoot, Peter Brown – Deputy Johnny McKay in Lawman, Jack Kelly – Bart Maverick, Ty Hardin – Bronco, James Garner – Bret Maverick, Wade Preston – Colt .45, and John Russell – Marshal Dan Troupe in Lawman, circa 1958. Westerns became popular in the early years of television, in the era before television signals were broadcast in color. During the years from 1959 to 1961, thirty-two different Westerns aired in prime time. The television stars that we saw every night were larger than life. In addition to the many western movie stars, many of our heroes and role models were the western television actors like John Russell and Peter Brown of Lawman, Clint Walker on Cheyenne, James Garner on Maverick, James Drury as the Virginian, Chuck Connors as the Rifleman and Steve McQueen of Wanted: Dead or Alive, and the list goes on. Western movies that became popular in the 1940s recalled life in the West in the latter half of the 19th century. They added generous doses of humor and musical fun. As western dramas on radio and television developed, some of them incorporated a combination of cowboy and hillbilly shtick in many western movies and later in TV shows like Gunsmoke.

INSTITUTION Federal Communications Commission, Washington, D.C. PUB DATE 10 Aug 73 NOTE 173p. JOURNAL CIT Federal Communications Conmission Reports; v42 (2d Series)N1 August 10,1973 EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS *Broadcast Industry; Certification; Citizen Partic4.pation; Commercial Television; *Equal Opportunities (Jobs); Evaluation; National Surveys; *Networks; Performance; Performance Criteria; *Programing (Broadcast); Television; *Television Surveys IDENTT_FIERS FCC; *Federal Communications Commission; Johnson (Nicholas); United States of America ABSTRACT This report represents the final attempt by outgoing Commissioner Nicholas Johnson to draw attention to the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) automatic renewal of licensees guilty of substandard performance. The report analyzes the performance of network affiliates in the top 50 television markets with respect to programing, female and minority employment, and ownership. It seeks to demonstrate the kind of analysis which can be made, to develop minimum standards, and to design an alternative to government regulation by using public disclosure of :;nformation to spur the industry to improve its performance and to motivate the public to challenge substandard licensees. The analyses of performance are based upon public data supplied by licensees to the FCC; in three separate chapters criteria on programing, employment, and ownership are developed from inspections of the data and the stations are rank-ordered according to their performance.it fourth chapter discusses what citizens can do to improve television in their community. Six appendixes and 17 tables provide detailed data on approximately 150 stations.
