KGNC Plans Taller Antenna and Studio Upgrades
KGNC moves studios and production to the Dallas Highway area near the Tri-State Fairgrounds and expands offices in the Paramount Building at Polk and Ninth. A 254 foot antenna will replace two 90 foot towers and should be installed in two weeks. NBC negotiations are ongoing as revenue charges from Oklahoma City affect timing. New features include a 12 program sponsorship by Great West Mill and Elevator, Betty and Bob and Jack Armstrong segments, and United Press broadcasts sponsored by Phillips 66. The Cathedral Young People's Club meeting was postponed due to the death of James F. Stone.

How One Man Lost 25 Pounds
John Lethaby of Portland Oregon recounts using Kruschen Salts for six weeks to drop from 190 pounds and 42 inch waist to 165 pounds and a 26 inch waist.
