Vol. l No.2 Nov.15, 1967 Grace Potts, Editor
Editorial:
Because of the overwhelming and enthusiastic response (!) to last week's
issue of INSIDE KEENER, your editor, to quote a Dick Purtanism; is "humble
and quietly proud!" For this reason, we've decided to publish again this
week.
It is not our intention to rush the season, but we want to give you advance
notice that our station Christmas Party will again be held at the Dearborn
Inn, Sunday, December 17. Please red circle this date on your calendar. More
information is forthcoming.
In addition to their duties here at the station, many of our personnel make
personal appearances (other than record hops). For instance, Bob Green spoke
on November 3 and again on the 5th to youth groups at Dearborn High and Beth
Aron Synagogue on Careers in Broadcasting.
Also, as a part of the Marine Corps recruiting and their efforts to create
greater interest in their branch of the armed forces through the various
media, Frank Maruca was asked to represent the radio segment and
participated in a public affairs clinic held Wednesday, November 8 at the
Detroit Press Club.
Not to be outdone by Jerry Goodwin, who has been named National Teenage
Chairman for ALSAC (the Danny Thomas drive for children stricken with
leukemia), Scott Regen has recently been named National Disc Jockey Chairman
for the "Breath of Life Campaign." This seeks funds for the Denver hospital
for research in the cure of asthma afflicted children.
Diane Christie, secretary at Michigan Spot Sales, just celebrated her 19th
birthday. Yes, (for those of you who didn't know), Diane is our Doug
Christie's sister. (I guess Pop has done a pretty good job of convincing the
kids that radio is a good business!)
A public service announcement for the Dearborn Kiwanis Club sale of fruit
cakes last week November 8 brought such tremendous response from Detroit
residents that Kiwanians couldn't handle the delivery of all of them and we
had to ask that the listeners pick them up at the station.
Effective on November 1st, a new building maintenance company took over the
cleaning duties for our offices. If you have any complaints, please report
them to this office.
Project Detroit subjects are sometimes hard to come by so if there is
anything of particular interest you'd like the News Department to dig into
and report on, please let them know.
PROJECT DETROIT subject for Sunday night, November 19 is "Sweet Land of
Liberty - Patriotism 1967."
