She knew about the woman of the tollway. I knew not how. I started to speak but she raised an arm and spoke with a quiet and peace I will never forget. 'I do not ask for whom's the tollway she said.

'The tollway belle's for thee." The judges "laughed a lot" when they read the piece Monday, contest spokesman Mark Grody said at Harry's Bar American Grill in Century City, which sponsors the annual selection of "one really good page of really 'bad' Hemingway." Applebome, who said he "makes a living writing bad things," acknowledged that his entry "contained a pretty remarkable magnitude of bad." Associated Press TLOS ANGELES Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea took the biggest beating in this year's eighth International Imitation Hemingway Competition, but it was the tale of a belle in a milk-white BMW on a tollway that won the good fight. "In the late summer of that year, we lived in a condo in North Dallas that looked across the tollway to the discos and honky-tonks of the Rue St. Bubba," began the winning piece by Peter Applebome, of Dallas, a senior editor of Texas Monthly magazine. Applebome wrote of the protagonist's secret yearning for a tollway woman's boyfriend, a secret eventually discovered by his girlfriend.

Phoenix television is relayed to this area by cable or translator and always proved to be more popular than Channel 7 among the viewing audience.

Sauro said the discontinuance of local programming will have some effect on ad revenue because the station no longer will be able to produce ads as it has in the past. He said the station will continue to feature a heavy, slate of sports programming in addition to religious productions put out by Billy Graham and Jerry Falwell. Sauro did not rule out the resurrection of local programming in the future. Preston Westmoreland NIGHT Prescott Continued from El the television general news coverage, long form, category of the Arizona Press Club's annual contest, beating out Phoenix and Tucson stations. The judge cited KUSK-TV's Quirk for "tremendous public service" in his coverage of Prescott flooding in 1983.

Sauro blamed the cutbacks on a combination of factors. One, he said, was the fact that Channel 7, which he described as the "world's smallest independent station," never gained any recognition in television advertising rating books. This meant the station could not get national advertising. Another factor, Sauro said, was the local economy. "Prescott's economy is not booming like the rest of the state.

"We've had a number of business bankruptcies, and I would estimate that 30 percent of our accounts receivable (for advertising) are not collectible." 30 Paul Harvey News 4 Comment PRESTON WESTMORELAND IWhat will Rio Salado mean to Phoenix?
