Not only do the cars wear a smooth smile, but notice the lack of dust in the air. You can eliminate the daily dusting now, Mom. Our thanks to Paul Colomer, who undertook the huge task of collecting for donations for the oiling of the roads. Anyone wishing to donate to this fund, please contact Mr. Ctftomer. Please notice the new signs posted at the beach and boat harbor. John Valaski kindly donated his time and talent to this project, for which thanks are in order.

This is due to the fact that color TV is broadcast over the same frequencies as black and white. Since the size and design of an antenna determines the frequency received, it makes no difference whether a particular frequency is used for color or B & W. However, we have learned at McIIENRY TV that the antenna assumes even a greater importance with color then it does with B & W. For color TOPICS Allan McKim to reproduce faithfully and clear, i particularly strong signal mast be received. Just an acceptable B & W picture from an antenna will not pro- ,, duce a very good colored picture. So, purchase your antenna with care today, even if you're only using it for B & W. In another/year or two you may want to u?e it for colored TV. When you phone 2233 we'll make certain that you will understand this situation and can decide accordingly. sHENRY TV PHONE 2233 On Route 120 - 2 Blks.
