NOTE: The date that appeared on the original chart as printed in GO Magazine
was May 12, 1966, a Thursday. However, this chart debuted on the air on
Wednesday, May 11, so the date that appears above reflects when the chart
actually took effect. This week marked the debut of the Long Shot--an
additional pick hit, usually by an unestablished artist.
