59000 for KOAT 47-000 for KOB-TV and for KGGM-TV 22000 KOAT MANAGED to place 10 of its 14 weekly news shows on an Arbitron Top 40 list The list was based on the number of homes and adults watching Neither KGGM nor KOB-TV made the list KOAT enjoys the advantage of many highly rated network programs leading in to each newscast Danziger said KOB-TV in many cases must get viewers to switch from another channel to KOB-TV news NBC-TVS Nightly News is in dire need of help he said That show 6 pm gram recedes KOB-news pro- The ratings conducted through most of November provide only lagging of audience viewing habits Danziger said Research by KOB-TV's consultants Magid Associates shows KOB-TV is "the most preferred" by audiences for local news "IT'S JUST a matter of time before the ratings catch up to that attitude The next book or the one after that will make us the winner of that as I am that the sun will come up tomorrow we'll wake up and have all the numbers on the news and (Max) Sklower (KOAT manager) Sklower's reaction to that is that Knipfing's drawing power has peaked a top-flight guy But to paraphrase Shakespeare man doth not a newscast make' just beginning to hit our stride" departure last August from KOAT was traumatic experience" for the station's news operation Sklower said left a number of people nervous We definitely had problems in the beginning with our new format" a dual anchor with Mary Lynn Roper and Johnny Morris Those problems he feels have been ironed out The mood has shifted to optimism RATINGS FIGURES prov- ided by KOAT indicate that at 6 pm that station reached an average 65000 homes KOB-TV reached an average 47000 and KGGM 42000 That is out of a total 344-000 anywhere including areas that overlap with Tex WINTER -S PECI AL FREE Weather Stripping on Casement Windows With each purchase made prior to OEC 151979 By DAVENORDSTRAND Trlbuno TV -Radio Writer The pacing and knuckle biting in the executive offices of Albuquerque's TV stations have subsided temporarily with this publication of local news ratings And the so-called sweeps" left each station with something to cheer about KGGM-TV Channel 13 is cheering because it doubled its 5:30 pm local news audience for the Albuquer-e que metro area over the past year KOAT-TV Channel 7 is cheering because though it lost its popular anchor man Dick Knipfing to KOB-TV Channel 4 it managed to hang onto first in the local hews market And at KOB-TV? Arbitron ratings show KOB-TV climbed substantially in metro news following the acquisition of Knipfing The expectation was however for more than an increase in ratines The hope was that Knipfing would propel the KOB-TV second-running local news program immediately into the frontrunner position So the cheering at KOB-TV may be somewhat less boisterous than at the other stations DISAPPOINTED but not discouraged" said Jerry Danziger KOB-TV general manager was anxious to win right She plays reporter HOLLYWOOD (AP) Linda Purl plays a young investigative reporter in the ABC movie ana pilot "Byline: Bobby Miss Purl has entered into an agreement with Universal Television that also calls fora project based on the romance of poet Percy Shelley and Mary Shelley who wrote "Frankenstein" You are Invited to Attend the Drawing For Our 1916 Kimball FREE PIANO GIVEWAY No Purchase Necessary To Be Held at Saturday 1 :00 PM December 22 1979 Registration Ends 1 2:00 Noon music spot 6:00 PM QO News BID Over Easy Guest: Stanley Kramer Tic Tac Dough I) Bionic Woman NBA Basketball Atlanta Hawks vs Detroit Pistons Missionaries In Action 6:30 PM Dating Game Dick Cavett Guests: mezzo-soprano Joan Morris and her husband classical pianist William Bolcom (Parti of 2) Happy Days Again Fon-zie falls for a woman whose life centers around the city's country club set 0 Wild 0 ffi La Carabina De Ambrosio 30 Wake Up America Movie Inglorious (1978) Bo Sven-son Fred Williamson 7:00 PM Buck Rogers In The 25th Century After being suspended in space for 500 years Buck tries to return to Earth but learns he can't until he proves that he is not a partner of the evil Draconians Inside New Mexico La verne Sc Shirley The girls come up with a unique way to raise money for Mr DeFazio's annual free Christmas dinner for bums (R) 09 The Waltons 0 ffi El Mundo De Louis De Alba 3) Starsky And Hutch 700 Club 7:30 PM MacNeil Lehrer Report Benson Q) Noches Tapatias 7:50 PM NBA Star Of The Game 8:00 PM Evening At Symphony Barney Miller Barnaby Jones 0 Pecado De Amor Happy Days Again 1979 United States National Team Gymnastics Championships 8:30 PM ElChavo Newlywed Game Civilisation Cg) Norman Vincent Peak NBA Basketball New York Knicks vs San Diego' Clippers 9:00 PM Quincy 3020 (B Dallas 0 ffi Lot Ricos Tambien Lloran Movie WWW "A Very Special (1965) Rock Hudson Leslie Caron Cg) News Behind The News Iff Inside The NFL 9:30 PM 8 Sneak Previews 0 Mama Campanita Movie WW4 Bay" (1953) Alan Ladd James Mason PTLQub 10:00 PM OOGB Newt Camera Three (H) Movie Christmas That Almost Wasn't" (1966) Rossano Brazzi Paul Tripp 10:30 PM Tonight Until I Get Caught M'ASH Frank is driven by his jealousy of Trapper into proposing to Hot Lips 0 Jim Rockford 24 Horas 11:00 PM 1 16 Beautiful Colors 15 Year Warrant?
