Mary,<br>
I'm sure we're thinking along the same lines<br>
regarding the primary elections.<br>
If KZYX is going to continue with election<br>
programming it would be:<br><br>
Interviews:<br>
Third District                                 1 hr. for ea. candidate                 Total        4        hrs.<br>
Treas./Tax                                  .5 hr                "                                                1<br>
Clerk Recorder/Assessor        .5 hr.        "                                                1<br>
Supertindent of Schools        .5                "                                                1.5<br><br>
Debates:<br>
Third District                                1 hr.                                                                1<br>
Treas./Tax - Clerk Recdr.        1 hr.                                                                1<br>
Sup. of Schools                        1 hr.                                                                1<br><br>
                                                                                                Total +/- 10 hrs.<br><br>
or 1 hr. each week beginning March 27.<br><br>
If you want me to host these interviews and debates I would like<br>
to know as soon as possible as there is a great deal of study <br>
and fact finding that will go into each broadcast.<br><br>
Norman<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
