Letters on television topics are subject to the rules applying to general correspondence. FLIP WILSON So your correspondent "Flip Out Yourself” cannot make sense of my letter. This was to be expected, as it was solely this person’s inability to “make sense" which caused any controversy. "Flip Out Yourself” read his own false interpretation into the initial letter by “Flip Out” and reacted with a childish outburst of mixed-up sentiment. In an age of universal education one feels sorry for the drop-outs. AN OBSERVER.
ft is a good thing "Flip Out Yourself’ cannot read. Think of the endless silly garbage the column would Set. I found "An Observer’s” itter made sense ahd, unlike the senseless reply it got, there was nothing irrelevant in it. Offensive was the correct word, although understated for this correspondent’s idiocy.—SAVE THE SPACE. [Subject to the right of reply of “Flip Out, this correspondence is closed.] WILD KINGDOM One of the most worth while programmes on television to my mind is "Wild Kingdom," yet it is shown at the unrealistic hour of 5 p.m. I wonder why it is not put on at 6.30 p.m. or after the local news when families ’ can watch it together. Surely others would agree that it deserves a better time—M. PATTERSON.
