Hour 25 for 1975-01-17 did not come out on the tape. I'm not sure what
happened. I ran the tape but now that I'm trying to play it back there seems
to be nothing on the tape. It may well have been the Magnivox reocrder which
had problems with it's presure pads. The pad bars may have come up when I was
threading the tape thereby preventing the recording. This is more unfortunate
than you may think. One of the items broadcast was a Germane Greir lecture as
well as the beginning of "The Butterfly Kid." Luckily I found someone with a
tape of the first instalment of "The Butterfly Kid" by Chester Anderson read
