We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Flint-Bay City-Saginaw moves into the top 40 (in actual TV homes delivered) New market? Not really. Only in the sense that when Flint and Bay City-Saginaw (two long-established TV markets) were combined, they formed one large Eastern Michigan market. And this moved the market up among the nation's top 40.* It's now in the same neighborhood as Providence, Charlotte and Denver. It's top 40 in terms of actual homes delivered, too: people watching television, not just set owners. And it's so easy for you to reach them. For nearly all the viewers in these three heavily populated cities get their television from within the market area— on stations, such as WJRT, which have CityGrade service to all three. If you'd like more information on the big move, the big market and how big we are in it, just call Harrington, Righter & Parsons, Inc. Offices in New York, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, Atlanta, Los Angeles and San Francisco. *Based on ARB ReportsMarch, 1960 (Sun. -Sat., 6-10 p.m.)
