consumer with extra cash on hand
is to buy a video cassette recorder.
A VCR is fast becoming an inexpen-
sive and worthwhile investment.
With a VCR, a
TV viewer is not pm
at the mercy of
network and local |

program can be

back at a more
convenient time.
It is also an WYSOCKI

preserving
those shows that are considered
quality ones, or shows that have a
special meaning or message for the
viewer.
