TELEPHONE CALL IN SHOW ON VITAL ISSUES 475 Riverside Drive, Suite 420, New York, New York 10027 Telephone: 2121663-8900 ROLE OF THE GUEST ON NIGHT CALL The basic idea of NIGHT CALL is to get callers and the guest into down-to-earth dialogue in a way that helps the audience participate in the discovery of new information, new ideas, new understandings. The role of the guest is dual: 1. At the beginning of the program the guest enters into a brief and informal conversation with the host, Del Shields, to sharply focus and clarify important points. Because this section sets the give-and-take pattern of question and answer for the entire show, it is essential that this be an exchange between the guest and host, not a capsule swmnary of points by the guest. The key word in the NIGHT CALL idea is the word "Conversation." 2. The next step comes four or five minutes into the show when the host takes the first call. The caller puts his question or cormnent directly to the guest. Here again the idea is an exchange between caller and guest. If the guest keeps his answers short and sharply focused, the caller can respond with new questions and ideas. Thus, we begin to achieve what the audience is really looking for -- the chance to hear an average person putting his questions, coiunents and concerns to the expert, almost as in normal face-to-face conversation. Some guests, fearing important points will be overlooked, tend to unwrap several ideas at a time in the early part of the show. We have found that audience interest and caller response is much higher when the guest deals with one idea at a time. The natural progression of the show soon moves us on to new ideas . At thr ee poin ts in the program - - every 15 minutes - - there is a break for station identificatfon. The guest stays on the line during these breaks.

The tax surcharge - budget cut law (the Revenue and Expenditure Control Act of 1968) requires the Executive Branch to cut back its total number of employees to the number on June 30, 1966.

The Senate de- bated the Labor-HEW Appropriations bill September 4-6 and adopted four key amendments providing more funds for education and antipoverty programs than the Senate Appropriations Com- mittee and the House had recommended (see table below). No change was made in the House figure for manpower training programs, which is $400 million, some $13 million below the Budget. These were the key amendments: Title I education funds . were raised to the Budget figure of $1.2 billion after Senator Hill (D-Ala.), the bill's manager, agreed that each state should receive as much money for this program in fiscal 1969 as it did for this year. The amendment was offered by Senator Hart (D-Mich.) and met no opposition. Senator Pastore (D-R.I.) sponsored the amendment raising antipoverty funds $215 million over the House and Senate Com- mittee figure. Hill opposed the amendment and it was adopted on a narrow 37-26 vote. Although the Senate figure was $92 million under the Budget, Pastore said it was acceptable to OEO. Senator Nelson (D-Wis.), original sponsor of the Teacher Corps, presented the amendment increasing appropriations to the Budget level. Hill proposed that Nelson settle for $24,667,000, a compromise sum mentioned by HEW officials, but Nelson stuck by his higher figure and the Senate went along WE Ati The dropout prevention program, which was written into the 1967 antipoverty bill by Senator George Murphy (R-Calif.), will get its first appropriations if the House goes along with the Senate. Murphy's amendment raising the funds to $20 million was adopted on a 42-21 vote. Appropriations for the four programs, from Budget request to Senate passage: Budget House Senate Senate .
