anyone who watches the show regularly must feel the same way until a few months ago we had never seen tabloid it came at what we thought was a bad time for us 700 pm just at the end of the sup per hour one night by chance we caught the show enjoyed it but the odd thing was we werent tooimpressed with dick aaacdougal a few nights later we saw it again and soon we found ourselves battling the small fry to see tabloid instead of cowboys and the more we watched the more we came to appreciate the artistry of dick his subtle wit warm humour good natured clowning now it is the custom almost every night to take a last cup of tea into the living room and watch entertainment at its best for in our esti mation tabloid is superior to much of the later night entertainment the kids have given

heart attack several weeks ago it was like miss ing a personal friend we had come to depend on this little visit five times a week tabloid seemed to limp to mark time and a lot of the zip was gone- one night last week we were cheered when his wife was a program guest and reported fftn much improved and looking forward to return ing to work what a shock next day to hear that only a few hours later a second heart seizure was fatal no one is irreplaceable a new face will take over and in time dick aacdougal will be un- knovmp to new generations of tv watchers but to us his friends there will always be happy memories and a trace of sadness that he is gone and no longer a nightly visitor in our house serjtainly illy wefi seyeirtyfiirrsrr for ambulance senrice preliminary organisation o

realize that a 3 to 4 hour meeting packed with difficult decisions and keen debate must have a change of pace m 1 6 years of council reporting we have yet to see a man who isnt giving his best to the job we like to make council reports interesting by using quotes by trying to show why a court- cillor thinks the way he does about a certain question and by occasionally reporting the ligh ter side
