Another fine schedule! Many thanks!

How odd it is to see WMAL picking up WTOP's network cast offs. It certainly not unheard of, but it struck me as unusual.
 
Always like seeing listings of retro-'Hollywood Squares'. Rose Marie wasn't on the daytime version that week(for all the talk about her being on the panel 'forever', she must have missed a lot of NBC episodes, because it seems like whenever 'Squares' shows up in these listings, she's not mentioned.) This time, though, she's listed on the nighttime version, while two celebs, Vincent Price and John Davidson, are on both editions. How often did that happen?
 
Interesting that WDCA ran Mary Hartman at 8pm. It was usually on following the late local news, and I've seen a good number of stations that carried it during the morning or afternoon like a straight soap, but I don't think I've ever seen an affiliate carry it in prime-time.
