Was
The
Lone Ranger
Black
?
As a matter of fact, one out of every four
cowboys in the founding of the West was black.
Maybe not beautiful, but black. And that little
fact has been hidden under a nice coat of white
wash. Until now. On TV. The Black Frontier.
Not only were lone rangers black... but there
were plenty of black cavalry men, railroaders,

homesteaders, rivermen... and you know what?
They made history, too.
There are other black shows. For instance:
Black Journal. Once a month we keep you in
touch with the whole black community, and that
baby is all over the place. Black Journal is things
they won't show you on the lily-white news.

Things you gotta know.
And then there's Soul! Soul is rhythm and rock
and the first black talk show all wrapped up in
one. Produced by blacks for blacks and while that
doesn't automatically mean it's a great show... it
just happens to be a great show.
Black Frontier, Black Journal and Soul! Now that's Color television!

Nixon Cheered
In Tennessee
President Nixon demonstrated 
his concern for law and
order with an early morning
visit to two police officers in
Kansas City Tuesday and then
flew to Tennessee to push his
campaign to unseat Sen. Albert
Gore, a persistent critic of his
Vietnam policy.
"Instead of calling them pigs
and spitting on them and shouting 
profane slogans as they go
about their jobs, let's give our
police respect," Nixon said
when he emerged from a 15minute 
visit with two policemen
hospitalized in Kansas City with
serious injuries suffered in a dynamite 
explosion.
