*Previous Pick Hit
     
All American of the Week:
     Bob Lewis - 12 Noon-3:00 PM Sunday


SPECIAL NOTES:  There was no #18 this week.

The album cuts are from the LP, "Something New."

There was no Pick Hit this week, although there are some who 
remember "Dancing in the Street" continuing into its second week 
as the Pick Hit, while simultaneously occupying the #21 position 
on the survey.  (This would be unprecedented if true.)

WABC was announcing "Things We Said Today" as "Soon to be released 
as the Beatles' next single!"  (Of course this didn't happen.)

"The Beatles have left New York to head to Atlantic City, but WABC 
is giving away FREE tickets!!!  Keep listening to WABeatleC for 
details."
