9:30 Daly (sic) News

I noticed your "sic", but didn't "Daly" refer to John Charles Daly, the ABC News anchor from this era?
Click to expand...

You're probably right - I just assumed it was a typo. My mistake.
 
Tuesday not Thursday, I believe, as March 10, 1959 was a Tuesday and the prime time
live network feed shows were from the Tuesday schedule.

As to ABC News/John Daly on 3/9 at 9:30 PM...the guesstimate here is that since ABC
had video tape then and it's doubtful that either KTVK 3 (the network feed source) or
KGUN 9 did, the network must have fed the (15 min.?) 'cast multiple times starting at
11 ET/9 MT. But notice neither station aired the early evening ABC newscast here.
Unless...there was no late evening ABC News and this 9:30 PM airing is a kinnie of the
earlier 'cast. ??? KTVK could have had a kinnie recorder and either its own processing
lab or used an in-town lab.

As for what filled out the 9:30 half hour on KGUN-TV, one may just blame sloppiness at
the Arizona Republic. From '60s microfilms I've seen, their Tucson listings were kind of
an afterthought (running in the "bulldog" or state edition only) and often had errors.

Can you tell I posted at 11:30pm? Good grief, Charlie Brown!! ::)
 
Some might also notice that NBC network programs on KIVA 11 Yuma are one hour later than in Phoenix or Tucson, yet they were actually in pattern. KIVA had its studios and transmitter about 10 mi W of Yuma at Pilot Knob (near the Calif. Inspection Station, for those of you familiar with the area) and ran its schedule on California time, so when the nation was on Standard Time, as would have been the case on Tuesday March 10th, air times in Arizona were an hour later. For example, the Today Show, airing at 7 am in Phoenix and Tucson, aired at 8 am in Yuma. Once the nation was on Daylight Saving Time, both sides of the market would have been synched up, as Arizona didn't use daylight time (except for an ill-fated experiment in 1967).

Ill-fated?

Hmmm...you must have been brainwashed by the drive-in theater lobby.
I hear they were a real powerful bunch in AZ back around '67-'68. ;)

Some of us, a minority apparently, liked DST in AZ but the majority did not. The drive-in lobby didn't have much to do with it.

I hadn't moved here yet, and wouldn't for another 2 years.

"Ill-fated", as in, "short-lived", but highly unpopular. Or so I'm told - I didn't even know how to tell time yet. :)
