.0 the CBS Owned television stations, dollar measure is but small measure of the value of their local community service activities. The fact that in 1959 these five stations devoted better than eleven million dollars in time and production costs to non-network public affairs programs and messages is a small gauge of accomplishment. Much more important was the limitless amount of care, imagination and skill expended to insure that these information programs met the same high standards as any of the top-rated programs that comprise the most varied and most widely-viewed broadcast schedules in television today. It is this consistent devotion to excellence which last year won for the CBS Owned stations more than ^5 awards and citations for public affairs programming.
