Dear Mr. Sweat:
The Urban Coali tion cooperates wi t h three o t he:i' nat ional organj_ z ations in presenting a national radio program five nights each week.
In Atlanta, Night Call is heard on station WAOK (1380 kc) from 11:30 PM
to 12: 30 AM.
Night Call is a nat ional, telephone c a ll-i n prog ram. A guest of n a tional or int ernationa l prominence is f eatured each ni gh t .
Persons
listening to Ni ght Call in 60 cities across the country may t elephone
collect , talk wi tl l the guest and host, Del Shields, about the issue
of the nigh t . Most of the issues revolve around the urban crisis.
I
am enclosing a p a cket with full informat ion .
Would you consi d e r doi n g a coupl e of t h i n g s ?
Help build audience for the prog ram b y
promoting i t through your channels:
We wi ll be gl a d t o furnish posters t o
y ou in quantity, weekly information
regard i n g guests and i s sues, and a
demo nstrati o :, .n tap e o f t h e p rogram for
use in meeting s o r wi t h individu als.
Suppo rt the s t a t ion in its p r es e ntati on
o f Ni gh t Call?
Sinc e th e p r o gram does
d eal wi ~i1.~ c on troversial issu es and at
t imes pres e nts controversial gu ests ,

Prod uced by TRAFCO/Televi sion, Radio and Film Commission of Th e United Method ist Ch urch,
Harry C. Spe.nce r, General Sec retary ,
�Continued, Page two, Mr. Swea t
Night Call is based on the premise that Americans are willing
to listen and discuss an~ idea; that people from different
backgrounds and with different attitudes and ideas must speak
and listen to one another before they can accept each other and
work together in solving the problems of our nation. Night Call
provides this opportunity.
It demonstrates that problems are
pretty much the same everywhere and that the search for answers
in Pittsburgh or Watts are relevant to just about every part of the
nation.
We'll also be glad to have suggestions on issues and guests.
If a
problem or a success program can be helped by, national exposure, we'd
like to know about it.
I will be looking forward to hearing

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.

Prod uced by TRAFCOITelevi sion, Rad io and Fil m Commission of The United Method ist Chu rc h,
Harry C. Spencer, General Secreta ry,
�· Producer
Precautions:
The producer does have several precautions against
abuse on the air:
a. The calls are screened before being
placed on the air.
b. The host has override capability
over both telephone lines. When the host
speaks, the gain automatically lowers on
the audience and guest lines.
c. NIGHT CALL permits any point of view
to be expressed.
Ideas are attacked but per.s ons
are not. This basic respect for persons has
effectively negated the bigot in the past.
d . The audience caller can be taken off
the air at the flip of the switch by the host.
Station
Identification
on the Network:
Participating stations are identified on the
air when a listener calls in from that station's
listening audience.
Audience
Callers:
NIGHT CALL accepts calls collect from listeners
anywhere in the country. This cost is the

QUOTES FROM THE NIGHT CALL MAIL BAG
"I enjoy listening to your new program ... My only suggestion
is NOT TO DISCONTINUE ... "
St. Paul, Minnesota
"More power to you, Del, and to all who make Night Call
possible.
I'm a summer visitor listening to you in
Collegeville, but l hope to be able to hear you at home
in Bismarck, North Dakota, a town that really needs
, open
discussion and a remedy for latent racism." Collegeville, Minn.
We are regular listeners (and callers, when we can throu gh
your busy lines) ... and commend you and its sponsors for an
excellent program."
The writers suggested guests from the
National Alliance of Businessmen and the movie industry on
"the incredibly poor and potentially dangerous movies that
appear in every movie house all over the nation." San Dieg o
" ... thank you ... for, the most interesting prog ram it has ever
been my privilege to listen to over the radio in these recent
years ... Our only problem down here is that we hear the program
over WFLA in Tampa (and Night Call gets pre-empted for baseball)
... last week we lucked out and only missed one program ...
Good luck to you all, perhaps all the baseball games will be
'rained out."
Tampa, Florida
"This is to- let you know we are listening... It's important
information, not only educational, but providing important
insights and inquiries into issues that are vit al to the
sani ty and success of this nation."
Seattle, Washingt on
"Please -- can 't we h a v e s ome moderation or sense o f politica l
b a l ance -- perhaps only pure coincidence, but the programs I
have listened to seem to be purely 'libera l' and left-wing
in the nature of the guests and topics.
I am tired o f the
Carmichaels, the Raps a nd the racial divisionists -- there
are still white p e ople with problems, too:" Chagrin Falls, Ohio
"I hope you have H. Rap Brown on again some night.
It is somewhat of a perverse pleasure to hear a grown man figuratively
cry and so distort the facts as to make a jack-ass of himself.
Thank you."
Toledo, Ohio
"I am very sorry for Mr. Carmichael and his feeling of hatred ...
I think I heard you say you are black.
I too am black and
proud of it, but Mr. Carmichael will be surprised to know how
many thousands of blacks disagree with him and will never join
a revolution. Think of the victories won by violence. Where
are they?" New York
�"Nice going on a great program. Now the problem is to get
everybody listening to it. I will do my selling bit down
here." Winston-Salem, North Carolina
"First I must apologize for hanging up abruptly in my exchange
with Mr. Steven Ledogar. The fact is I was so caught up in the
issue and so angry at Mr. Ledogar that I wanted to conclude our
communication ... my hanging up in such a manner was, obviously
indefensible.
I am somewhat surprised, myself, at this action
... What he is repeating ... is utterly, cynically untrue.
(administration position on Vietnam).
"I believe we are in a
period of continuing and perhaps periodically escalating crises.
I believe that, ultimately, only self-knowledge, introspection,
will halt this process. NIGHT CALL is playing an extremely
important role in this end. ':'
Cleveland, Ohio
"I like the way you conduct your NIGHT CALL.
So many of the
moderators do all of the talking. Since you put this Cleveland
"pest" ... on last night, I am sure you are going to be bothered
with this old John Bircher. Keep up the quality that you have
now."
Cleveland, Ohio
Excerpts of a letter to Dr. A. W. Criswell, Southern Baptist
Convention: "I have just heard you 1n on NIGHT CALL.
I feel
like crying and crying. You have not begun to understand the
problem ... ! call myself a Baptist and profess to be a Chris tian
.. . as I understand my Baptist training, we need not progress
but repent ..• Don't tell the black that time caused the problem
and time will cure it. Time didn't cause it -- White Baptists
(and others, · but the number game must fault the Baptist) caused
it ••• "
Minneapolis, Minnesota

stations to the NIGHT CALL network. These include:

The Cool Hot Line
The hot-line show is one of the most
discredited forms of radio programming. What could be more µnedifying
than know-nothing listeners phoning in
their philosophies to know-it-all ex-disk
jockeys? But this summer the United
Methodist C hurch is making judicious
use of the format. It is sponsoring a
radio dialogue between the races that
is more compelling than any heard on
the sudden multitude of such talk shows,
including those produced on TV.
T he name of the program is Night
Call, and it is carried live (11 :30 p.m.12:3 0 a.m ., E .D.T.) five evenings a week
on an ad hoc chain that has grown
from 21 to 57 radio stations in less
than three months. Listeners anywhere
may phone collect (Area Code 2 12: 74933 11) and argue racial issues with an influential national figure who is guest of
the night, say James Baldwin, the Rev.
R alph Abernathy, Muhammad Ali, Sargent Shriver or A rthur Miller.
The most provocative visitor so farjudging by the number of callers totted
up by the phone company-was Stokely Carmichael, who was dialed by
64,440 Americans. In custo mary form ,
Carmichael told one listener who wondered about the impact of nonviolence
on whites, "You should ask Martin Luther King that question. " A wh ite guest
who stirred a big switchboard jam was
New York's Mayor John Lindsay.
Quizzed on the wa r in Viet N am, Lindsay replied ·that it was " unprod uctive.
unwanted , end less, bottomless, sideless,
and its cost is unquestionably affecting
the problems in our cities." Another
night, White Radica l Saul Alinsky, in
sympathy with black callers, blasted the
Job Corps as a "payoff to stay quiet'·
and categori zed m uch of the rest oi
the poverty program as ·'a public relatiops gimmick."
Ranting Nuts. Thanks to a specially
built phone link-up system, the program's guest generally participates as
the listeners do-by long-distance from
his home. A Manhattan staffer receives
calls on three phones, screening out
·'the drunks and ranting nuts." T he
twelve or J 5 most pertinent questions
are put th rough to the show's moderato r, Del Shields. In case the conversation gets li belous or licentious, Shields
can push a cut-off button, but he has
not yet had to use it. T hough the discussion is freq uently fiery, about the
roughest language used to date was
Rap Brown's dismissal of civil rights legislation as "intellectual masturbation."
Shields, who is a radio veteran and
militant black, got into the debate himself once when he felt that a Negro caller was unfairly attacking Guest Jackie
Robi nson for Uncle Tomism. Often,
Moderator Shields, who hits fungoes
to the guest for ten or 15 minutes before turning him over to the phone-in
aud ience, is the toughest interrogator
of the night. Roy Innis, director of
CO RE, should know what is in store for
him next month. Shields plans to as~
him " Has CORE gone Tom?"
