MORE AND BETTER TV
Before the year is out, expanded video activity in North
Carolina should result in 8 new television stations located
in the cities of Raleigh, Durham, Winston-Salem, Greenville,
Charlotte, Mt. Airy, Henderson and Asheville—bringing a
new world of entertainment to both city and farm folk
from the mountains to the sea. It is progress like this that
makes North Carolina a better place in which to work, play
and live for all of us!
Another contributing factor to more pleasant living for
North Carolinians is the brewing industry's self-regulation
program where brewers, wholesalers and retailers-in coun
ties where malt beverage sales are permitted under State
control cooperate to maintain wholesome conditions for
the legal sale of beer and ale.

The report further revealed the
following miscellaneous viola
tions: faulty equipment, 747; fail
ing to stop for stop sign, 647; im
proper lights, 334; driving on
wrong side of the road, 221;
following too closely, 201; and
failing to give the right-of-way,
191.
Combined, the September fig
ures made a total of 7,372 North
Carolinians found guilty of mov
ing violations. Out of State of
fenders added another 1,211.
