SPECIAL NOTES:  Although "Jingle Bells" by the Singing Dogs 
appeared on last week's printed survey (as "The Barking Dogs"), 
the record did not receive airplay until this week.  It is also 
given a survey number (34) for the first time.

The Neil Diamond record ("Stones") was not on the printed survey, 
but was played on the air without an announced survey number.
