From what I could tell, the first TV Guide issue to have the (BW) designation on all editions was Aug. 26-Sept. 1, 1972.
 
WNDU 16-NBC South Bend
5:00 Beyond Our Control

this was a show produced locally by high school students, usually sketch comedy with surprisingly good writing and high production values.
 
And considering the program ran immediately after the "NBC Baseball Game of the Week," if the game went into extra innings, it most certainly would have been "beyond their control". ;D
 
I had TOTALLY forgotten about "Beyond Our Control"! I remember seeing it in the early 80s...Didn't know it went back this far. There are a bunch of clips of it on YouTube, including a sketch that seems AWFULLY similar to a very successful Disney/Pixar movie franchise...

Also, I can't get the CBS Children's Film Festival theme song out of my head now.

You probably mean "The New Dick Van Dyke Show"
 
Indiana did not observe DST until recently. Prime time bounced between 7 to 10 and 8 to 11 when time changed in the rest of the U.S. That was "solved" in the 80s through tape delay during the DST part of the year.
