Making 'Public Service' Hold Public Attention In the studios of WPRO-TV, 'public service' is never a synonym for dullness. To make public service hold public attention, the station-staff has been persistent in its pursuit and presentation of informational subjects that closely affect the interests and welfare of Rhode Island. Not content with frequent presidential visits to the WPRO-TV area (Eisenhower at Newport; Kennedy at Hyannisport) active coverage is frequently extended to the national capital. Among such expeditions was "A Day in the Life of a Congressman" a step-by-step televised saga of Rhode Island's John E. Fogarty. The WPRO-TV news staff is equally mobile. While following the straight trail of factual reporting, it ranges far . . . Mort Blender to Israel, covering the Eichmann Trial . . . Chris Clark across the nation with the NIT Champs, Providence College, and to Arizona with the Boston Red Sox . . . Virginia Stuart to Washington on special assignments. To Blair-TV, penetrating communityinterest programming by great stations like WPRO-TV is a constant source of inspiration. We are proud to serve more than a score of such stations in national sales. Our Special Projects division devotes full time to the presentation and sale of Special Events and Public Affairs Programs created by our stations. A call or letter will bring complete information on important programs currently available.
