Apparently ABC had given back the 9:30 hour to the local stations. I think our local affiliate (Cedar Rapids) delayed Johnny Cash to that hour.
 
ABC was already giving back 10:30-11 Saturdays, and in
preparation for the access rule gave back 9:30-10:30 Saturdays,
7-8 Sundays, and 10:30-11 Thursdays in January 1971.

And several stations moved Johnny Cash back to Saturdays at
9:30, where he had first aired in the summer of 1969; I know that
Atlanta, Raleigh, Orlando, Louisville, Columbus (OH), and Chattanooga
were among those that did.
