Original camera footage edited for broadcast for KNTV San Jose Channel 11 news. Includes national, local, and sports coverage. The broadcast script for this date has not survived.
Reel 1:
Segment 1 (sound): Interview with a Mr. Cane [or Cain] by KNTV Monterey reporter Dennis Rowedder, who asks whether the State Attorney General has been in touch with him. He says, "No. All I know is what I've read in the newspapers...news came as a surprise." Rowedder asks how he feels. "I feel very confident...I'm sure nothing out of the ordinary has happened in my office in the past 12 years..."
Segment 2 (sound): Man in front of large districting map of Santa Clara County, speaking on why they've had to increase taxes. As population increases and new facilities are developed, it naturally becomes more expensive for the city to give these services. This growth in addition to a loss of tax income due to a slowdown in building has resulted in a deficit.
Segment 3 (sound): Golf tournament in the Pebble Beach area. Dennis Rowedder interviews a man named Mr. Smith, "How does this year's field compare?" Smith says, "We always limit the field to 350 and we always have extra entrants. This year it's up to 384 in the championship flight." Rowedder asks how tough the Pebble Beach course is for amateurs. "Too tough, apparently! Even with clear skies, they couldn't hit the ball right yesterday." Smith says the low score was Chuck Montalbano at Cypress Point with a 70, and the leader here [Pebble Beach] was John McGlone with a 72.
Segment 4 (silent): Very short clip of youth tennis.
Reel 2:
Segment 1 (silent): Baseball game in San Jose.
Segment 2 (silent): San Jose State sprinter wearing bib number 324 walking slowly behind bleachers at track, carrying relay baton. He appears injured. Cut to the same athlete lying on a table having is groin/inner thigh sprayed with cold spray. [This is likely Tommie Smith]. The next shot is of the same athlete, wearing track pants and a San Jose State jacket, hat, and sunglasses, walking slowly to the track, with crowds in the stands.
Reel 3:
Segment 1 (sound): Trial of "Napalm Ladies" at San Jose Municipal Court Department No. 5, Judge Edward Nelson presiding. Group of people waiting outside the courtroom in corridors. Shot of large audience in the courtroom that includes many children. Two interviews. The first is with a man [Donald Duncan?] who is asked about napalm and explains how napalm fires and explosions work. He says he's seen victims of napalm in the hospital and it's not a very pretty sight. The next man interviewed is an older man wearing glasses, who says that the government has to prove two ingredients in the charge - that the women entered the property, and that they entered for the purpose of interfering with lawful business. But if they can prove that napalm is not legal in the first place, then the reason for the trial goes out the window. [The Napalm Ladies were Joyce McLean, Beverly Farquharson, Lisa Kalvelage, and Aileen Hutchinson]
Segment 2 (silent, color): A large machine is moved into a large cement tunnel while a group of men look on. Remote area with hills in the background. A large gaseous flame comes out from the machinery. Appears to be a demonstration of a large boring equipment.
Reel 4:
Segment 1 (silent): Believed to be footage of the ABC program "Where the Action Is" being shot at Monterey's Fisherman's Wharf. Footage of a band dressed in suits playing on the steps next to a cocktail bar overlooking a parking lot, right next to the ocean, as a small group of dancers [Pete Menefee and The Action Kids?] do a choreographed dance that looks like a version of The Swim with a "casting a fishing line" move included. Spectators stand around the action. An ABC camera can be seen at the top of the stairs, and another camera is seen at the left. The singer for the band comes down the stairs and plays an electric keyboard while screaming a couple of lyrics. This band may be the San Jose group Syndicate of Sound. A small child is seen moving along to the music. A second band is seen from above waiting, dressed in military costume. This is likely the group Paul Revere and the Raiders, who were regulars on the show. A large group of spectators is on the dock overlooking a boat; some members of the band or crew are seen sitting on a boat. Sam's Fishing Fleet sign can be seen in the background.
Segment 2 (silent): Actor Cary Grant and his wife Dyan Cannon in the office of what appears to be a cruise line company. Cannon is wearing pearls and a corsage pinned to her dress. She and Grant are smiling and talking to another man, who shows them a globe and traces a route on it. He then folds up a large piece of paper that may be an itinerary or a map. They then look at a painting of a tall ship on the wall. This may be related to Grant and Cannon's steamer voyage in 1966 that included a visit to England.
