I was at KURB back then and I phoned Rod Belcher. He sent us three copies.
By the way, note the display ad for Standard School Broadcast on KXA, Thursdays at 11:00 A. M. When I was in grade school at Olympic View in Seattle about twenty years earlier, we listened to the program every week in class. The show was sponsored by Standard Oil of California’s Standard Stations and Chevron Dealers. The subliminal message for that week might have been that Paul Revere couldn’t have taken his midnight ride until he made sure the “very good horse” he borrowed was fed and watered.
“And boys, be sure to remind dad that his “very good car” will get the same great service from his neighborhood Chevron Dealer!”

As a kid in elementary school, something like a spot ad on a school broadcast really caught my attention and I thought it was cool. Other kids, it might have gone over their head. Silly stuff, maybe.
