KEDD WICHITA KANSAS NBC ABC 97% OF THE WICHITA TV AUDIENCE SEE TELEVISION AT ITS BEST ON KEDD WH m KEDD CHANNEL '■■-'. WICHITA KANSAS STANDI M DURWOOD REPRESENTED BY Edward Petry & Co., Inc. had grown lower, while the time and program remained unchanged. I But not for long, as is usually the case. I The commercial aspect of this buy also showed good promise. Not only could film commercials be integrated into this show, but the live commercial picture of openings and closings, together with the personality endorsement, were what we were looking for. This was the type of show that could be promoted well by the dealers in their showrooms. All the information necessary to a good sales pitch was given, not only in the facts and figures above, but also with respect to future value and acceptance of the program. In September I bought this show on a 13-week contract, which was later renewed for 26 weeks. That is, in my estimation, a good pitch, sold well by the salesman. Any questions?
