Ag Council starts information exchange
WASHINGTON, D. C. - skills of professional com-
The Agriculture Council of municators in ACA’s effort
America’s new Media to build meaningful con-
Council set the exchange sumer support for American
information between urban agriculture. Recognizing the
and farm media as one of its diverse interests of the
major priorities at its kickoff membership, two sub
meeting held in Washington, committees were
D. C. last month. The session established: Farm Broad
was attended by about 25 casters and Agriculture
representatives of the Publishers and Editors,
nation’s leading farm media
outlets.
“The exchange project is
an extension of ACA’s ‘City-
Farm Swap’ program,”
explained Media Council co
chairman Royce - Bodiford,
Farm Director for KGNC-
Radio of Amarillo, Texas.
“That Swap involves an
exchange of weekend visits
between city and farm
families - our project is going
to target the participation of
the people who work in farm
and big city media.”
The purpose of the project
is to let a media member
learn from audiences in a
different market. It would
involve the swapping of TV
and radio programs,
features and columns. The
Swap was one of the ac
tivities the media group
thought it could be most
effective. The objective of
the group is to utilize the
Rules of the
road changed
HARRISBURG, - All
licensed drivers are urged to
obtain a pamphlet outlining
the changes in the rules of
the road that take effect July
1.
The phamplet explains the
important changes
established in the new motor
vehicle code which was
passed by the General
Assembly last year.
The new point system,
which generally .increased
the amount of fines and
lessened the number of
penalty points assessed for a
violation, has been in effect
since July 1, 1976.
There are many changes
and the pamphlet deals with
the major points.
- Allowing a right turn on
a red light after a stop and
where signs do not prohibit
the turn.
- Giving pedestrians
exclusive right-of-way at
proper crosswalking areas.
-- Permitting U turns
where they can be made
without interfering with the
safety of the traffic flow.
- Demanding pedestrians

Three primary purposes
were outlined for the
organization: 1) provide
independent evaluation of
AC A programs to insure they
are newsworthy and of a
high professional quality and
integrity; 2) draw on the
contacts, experience and
talent of farm media in
reaching larger farm and
urban audiences and 3)
inform farm audiences about
specific ways they can take
action to build a better
relationship with the urban
consumer.
“We can play a double role
- one, of keeping the farmer
informed of his public
relations opportunities and
at the same time, we have
enough contacts in urban
areas to get the fanner’s
story told to consumer,”
remarked the group’s other
chairman, Lane Palmer,
to cross streets at
intersections and
crosswalks. If pedestrians do
not cross streets at the
proper areas they must give
the right-of-way to all
vehicles.
- Requiring an accident
where someone is injured or
killed to be reported to the
local or state police. An
accident report to the
Department of
Transportation is no longer
requested unless police
cannot investigate the
mishap.
- Allowing passing on the
right.
- Holding the vehicle
pulling out from a yield sign
automatically at fault if an
accident occurs.
