' Exhibition author- ities have asked that the big unit, and accompanying vehicles, not be moved during the afternoon and evening in view of the necessary restrictions against vehicular traffic on the grounds, in the interest of safety. Consequently, the mobile unit must be in position not later than 11.00 a.m. each day and must remain in that position" until midnight before it can be moved to a new location, While this will somewhat restrict coverage, CBC program officials are quite certain that the test programs will offer enough variety to: interest | viewers.
