THE 10 TOP FILMS IN 10 MAJOR MARKETS AS RATED BY ARB IN OCTOBER FROM the monthly audience surveys of American Research Bureau, B»T each month lists the 10 top rated syndicated film programs in 10 major markets, selected to represent all parts of the country with various degrees of competition. Despite all precautions, occasional errors will occur in these tables, due to use of the same program name for both a syndicated and a network series and the practice of some stations of substituting local titles (such as [advertiser] Theatre) for real program names. , new york ■m^^/mm MARKET LOS ANGELES j SEVEN-STATION MARKET 1.
