Reagan's TV address nets funds despite weak ratings
Reagan's national television address attracted 8.5 million viewers as Starsky and Hitch drew 16 million, Blue Night 12.9 million. Campaign officials say the appeal added about 450 000 to coffers, with production and air time around 100 900. Smith marks overall funds as tight though federal matching potential could push near 490 000 beyond this week's contributions. John Sears notes record mail at Washington headquarters.
