To Tell The Truth and What's My Line? went head-
to-head. Normally, they either aired on the same
channel (Channel 11 in Atlanta aired Line at 7,
Truth at 7:30) or on different channels at different
times (as you indicated for Providence). Wonder which
one won the time slot in Boston?

Also, I think Boston, more than any other market, adhered
to the FCC's intentions when it passed the access rule. You
show Dr. Tim Johnson on Chennel 5 at 7:30, and something called
Bostonia on Channel 7 at the same time. Wasn't there at least
one local program somewhere (Channel 4, 5, or 7) practically
every night?
