Sentinel presents a limited schedule card listing EDEA TV and CHANNEL LONDAY for December 31 with time slots and program names. The notice notes channel availability and any special events or listings as read from the schedule page.
A chaotic OCR style TV schedule lists programs and times across two channels with multiple shows including cartoons, news, sports, and specials. The fragmentary page references Today Tonight Tomorrow and various midmorning to late-night broadcasts, plus a cryptic word search section and a few game-like clues.
Puzzle list blends cryptic style hints with scattered phrases such as Crossword 3 Fuss WTA ratio and Sloths device. Entries include Rodent 10 Thin in 42 Wing voice 34 Raft 16 Stitch 35 Foretell 14 and Elevator 87, with references to Saturday and Anger worm in a confusing, partially legible set of clues.
The listing shows a sequence of TV time slots with 12:30 Mummers Parade 11:45 Tournament of Roses 00 Treasure Hunt 7:30 Name That Tune 8:00 The Phil Silvers Show. It reads as a fragment of a broadcast schedule likely from a newspaper page.
In Los Angeles Samir J. Selnick reports his phone line cut and receiver stolen just before 8:00 PM while a dime coin box was involved. He asks the telephone company to restore his time as broadcast listings show the evening schedule from 8:00 through midnight including The Brothers and various shows.
