Was WEWS using "Eyewitness News" in 65?

I have always heard that WEWS was one of the first stations outside of Westinghouse ( KYW, WJZ, KPIK, WBZ and KDKA ) to use the name Eyewitness News. I know Buffalo's WKBW-TV was using it as far back as 1968. Not sure when the ABC O&O's ( except KGO and WXYZ ) picked it up though.
 
KYW used "Eyewitness News" in Cleveland from 1959-June 1965..WEWS may have begun to use Eyewitness News as early as fall 68-spring 69 or as late as 1971..Id have to research more on it..

WABC-TV in New York was the first of the ABC O&O's to use the EWN title, in November of 1968. (Their first slogan was, "If You Weren't There, We Were.") In January of 1969, KABC-TV in Los Angeles followed, then around that time WLS-TV in Chicago -- which premiered an embryonic preview thereof with (Fahey) Flynn/(Joel) Daly News prior to WABC's unveiling of the format -- at first modified its title to Flynn/Daly Eyewitness News, before shaving off the anchors' names from the title. In the case of WXYZ, it was forced to call its newscasts Action News because rival WJBK had first dibs on the EWN title in the Motor City.

It should be noted that the specific edit of Lalo Schifrin's "Tar Sequence" cue from Cool Hand Luke originated with WABC, and tape dubs of that edit were sent to WLS, WXYZ, and Sydney, Australia's TCN 9 (in the latter case, for their National Nine News). KABC and KGO did their own edits (and thus sounded a bit clearer), though KGO's had more in common with WABC's than was the case with KABC. The one to use the WABC edit longest had to be WXYZ, even past the time the station was sold to WEWS' owner Scripps-Howard (definitely as of 1986, probably into the early '90's). WLS was the first to dump it, in 1980, in favor of Frank Gari's Seven on Your Side package, and WABC used their own edit up to 1983 when Mr. Gari's News Series 2000 first came into use.
 
And probably 12 seconds after they started using "Eyewitness News" some smart aleck started calling it "Eyewitless News"

Yup, Steve Allen--in one of his comedy bits as a TV newscaster.
