He spoke last week to the Clearfield Chamber of Commerce during the monthly luncheon held at the Hill Air Force Base Officers Club. He was referring to his popular Wednesdays Child program, which is aired weekly featuring a special needs child seeking tion. Three years ago when the program was started I was very uneasy doing it," he said. It was very difficult for me to be a real fyuman being on camera and in. - KUTV is one of approximately stauons across the country that air a program of this type, but there are over 100,000 special needs children who are in need of adoption and loving homes. Carlisle said he was amazed himself at the vast number of these children, many of whom will never be adopted and have no chance for a brighter future. Nine out of 10 of the children shown on Channel 2 have either been physically or sexually abused, and are either physically or emotionally handicapped. The purpose of airing such a program is to increase public awareness of these children. In past years they were seldom mentioned and almost never adopted. But in recent years as babies are becoming more difficult to adopt, it is the hope of adoption agencies concerned for the welfare of these special children and the producers of programs like Wednesdays Child that people interested in adopting will consider one of these children, he said. Carlisle believes this is hardly a strong solution to the real problem which is plaguing our society and causing large numbers of these children to be in such dis- teract with these children after years of coaching.concerning my appearance and delivery. .As a result the children were also uneasy and more difficult to work with, he explained, because they sensed his uneasiness. I am more comfortable doing the program now, and so are they, he said, although he commented it usually takes about two hours of filming to achieve the two minute segment used on the air. tress.

Our staff works hard on every story and It costs $4 million a year to run a news room, which does not include the equipment used. Because it is a visual medium, more and more video footage is being utilized in reporting the news, rather than the old way of a newsperson sitting before the camera reading the news.
