What's (Not) On TV Tonight (1973)?

The Indianapolis 500, that's what:

I'm not sure what Channel 3 is going to show now that the race is delayed, but the great news is this frees up my Memorial Day May 28, 1973, Monday evening to watch baseball on Channel 6. In some markets at least, that game is scheduled to be the Oakland A's at the Detroit Tigers.

And if that doesn't happen--the A's-Tigers game was rained out Sunday--I will settle for the Channel 12 sitcom reruns. Per the Paducah, Kentucky, Sun-Democrat, here's what we can look forward to at 8 and 8:30 Central:

Here's Lucy. Lucy lands the job when singer Petula Clark contacts the agency for a secretary who can also act as her companion.

The Doris Day Show. Doris spends so much time interviewing a rock music star that word spreads that the young singer and Doris are seriously involved.

I actually saw both of these episodes when they originally ran during the fake 1972/73 TV season that I've been enjoying, and I would be happy to watch them both again.

The Freakin' Weekend (1969)

It's a huge college-football Saturday, Nov. 22, 1969.

Looking at the TV listings in Hopkinsville's Kentucky New Era, it appears we're going to get at least two and maybe three college-football games on TV.

No. 1, national-champ Ohio State is 8-0. Under its new coach, Bo Schembechler, Michigan is 7-2 and ranked 12th. 

Should be a good game, and here's Bill Flemming with Buckeyes coach Woody Hayes to talk about it ....

And here's the game: Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3.

If not the whole game, maybe we'll also get some highlights from No. 16 Nebraska at Oklahoma ...

Early in the evening, we're on for No. 5 USC vs. No. 6 UCLA ...

By the way, as you know, Kentucky lost to No. 18 West Virginia a couple of weeks ago. (The Mountaineers' only loss to Penn State.) I just wanted to post these great pictures of UK's scoreboard and uniforms in that game ...

On Sunday, of course, we'll see what four pro-football games we get ...

Maybe more Saints love ...
