Profile of the future It belongs to Les Crane, a bright and bold young man who started talking to radio audiences on KGO in San Francisco. People listened. When he moved to KGO-TV more people listened, and looked. A year ago he came to New York and repeated his success on WABC-TV. But it didn't stop there. Backed by a unique Program Development Plan, the ABC OWNED TELEVISION STATIONS then got together and gave Les an exciting new format, an im^jortant new time period and an audience in five great cities. Result. Smash hit, and now Les and the show are a vital part of the ABC TELEVISION NETWORK. Another station-developed j^rogram has made good. Like SHINDIG. Like BABE RUTH : A LOOK BEHIND THE LEGEND. RUN TO DAYLIGHT, REQUIEM FOR AN ARENA, PINOCCHIO. Like THE PHYLLIS DILLER SHOW and MAKING OF THE ALL-STARS. And, of course, THE LES CRANE SHOW— a local show you'll soon be able to see almost anywhere.
