The black and white videotape made of the Championship Game in 1965 was used over countless television stations In more than 14 states but not In as timely a fashion or effective a fashion as should be.

This Is a tremendous opportunity. Don't let it pass by.

Please send any and al I Information directly to me. You might also ask the television stations Involved to write directly to me .

It is possible that the videotape may be an edited version of the game to lessen television time but st!1 I get al I of the game on the air. We also hope to transpose the videotape into a 16 mm color film for use In other ways.
