Newsday TV Book, April 23-29, 1972.

[UPDATED! April 2022: As with issues one and two, I've added more pics, commentary, w'ev.]

We begin the fourth week of April 1972 with one-third of the Partridge Family. (Remember, you can click on the pics to enlarge them, which would make David Cassidy almost life-size!)

A Yiddish phrase worth memorizing, the whereabouts of Jack Lescoulie, inchoate Nassau County cable, Little Ronny Howard and the Rifleman's rifle: all curious topics, plaguing the minds of curious Long Islanders.

NEW! The cover story, with more about Shirley Jones' home life than I ever cared to know.

NEW! Sunday afternoon's schedule features a close-up about the WLIW (channel 21) auction, comin'atcha live from Roosevelt Field.

The copywriter for Andrews is clearly unacquainted with parentheses.

The late Tuesday night listings offer a look at Jack Paar in Africa (and Up with People serenading the Masai, which I might need to see).

NEW! Thursday morning listings, mainly for the ads. I've often said the finest art comes from an old barn. (And half off? Pssssht...)

NEW! I'm skipping ahead to that afternoon, almost 100% for the Mike Douglas Show listing.

NEW! And just because it's how I roll, here's all of Saturday.

What's it gonna be, 70's stoners: Dr. Strangelove, Terror From the Year 5000, or sitting four inches from your portable Emerson to toggle between them?

Now some ads and stuff:

A car that fits your pocketbook! (And, by the way, the only car I can ever remember thinking was cool. Which will tell you how cool I was.)

Celebrity Sighting: Esther Williams, all extruded.

 A coupla Ray Charleses, as envisioned by Gary Viskupic. Can you find the hidden bong?
(Answer: It was in the bottom drawer of Gary's desk.)

Hey, Holiday Spa, some of us have spent a lot of time cultivating "that soft-as-dough look!" 

The price tag was great, but man the sportcoats were better!
