ONE OF ELEVEN “The Private Eyes”, a Don Knotts-Tim Conway Film at Biltmore
House in Asheville, is one of 11 productions scheduled this year in North Carolina, ac
cording to the N.C. Film Office. Those movies, plus 30 national television commercials
produced in the Tar Heel state in the past six months, will generate an estimated $36-million
for the state’s economy, will create jobs for several hundred North Carolinians, and will
give tourism a boost, the Film Office reports. Pictured above, left to right, are Grace

in the TV room? Nearly
everyone has heard of the
dangers of overdosing on
prime-time programming.
There is well documented
research that shows that
children learn “anti-social”
behaviors from their
favorite characters, such as
physical violence, verbal
abuse, and stealing. There is
about as much evidence that
will tell us that our kids
claimants weekly wages,
but cannot exceed the .
maximum, regardless of ,
how much the person earned
on the job.
During the quarter ending
June 30, about 18 percent of
North Carolina’s workers
drawing unemployment
qualified for the maximum
weekly payment. Os those
receiving maximum
payments, almost 13 per
cent were eligible to receive
payments for 26 weeks, the
longest time permitted
during ordinary economic
conditions. Among all
workers receiving
payments during that
period, about 61 per cent
were eligible for the full 26
weeks.

How do we make sure our
children will learn what
we’d like them to from
watching TV? Here are
some suggestions to im
prove listening and
reasoning skills by using
your own popular and
educational piece of elec
tronic gadgetry:
1. Encourage your
children to sit through a
program from beginning to
end. This helps increase
attention span, as well as
teaches a child to follow
through with activities
they’ve started.
2. Ask questions about

what’s happening in the plot
of a show. Help kids learn
sequencing by asking “What
happened first? What
happened after that? What
happened third?” Help
abstract reasoning skills by
making predictions, such as
“What will happen next?”
3. Help children to pick out
the absurdities on TV. For
instance, ask if what just
happened on “Mork and
Mindy” could actually
happen in real life. Young
children often have a dif
ficult time telling the dif
ference between fact and
fiction when protrayed on
the “tube”.
The key factor in
preventing a generation of
incredible television hulks
may lie in how well we

monitor their TV viewing
now. TV time can be a useful
and enjoyable total-family
activity, and at the same
time, it can help our
children understand
television. TV watching can
be an active learning ex
perience involving
reasoning and processing
skills. Parental
“monitoring” is all im
portant in preventing in
nocent children from tur
ning into “boob-tube
junkies”!
