Women campaign to clean up television violence
Deer Park residents Pam Taylor and Theresa Wheeler lead a campaign with the National Federation for Decency to pressure sponsors and boycott networks. They demand removal of sexual and violent content, urging sponsors like Campbell Soup, Sears, Kodak, GM, and Schlitz to pull ads. They say AMA support backs their stance and note boycotts yielded some advertiser pullouts. Box 513 Pasadena Texas 7708.
