OF DOUGLAS COUNTY LATEST NEWS, SPORTS MUSK, TUNE IN R X L YOUR RADIO DIAL Selling New TV Shpw Idea Faces Heavy Obstacles, Producer States By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK If you live in Oshkosh and have what you feel ia a million-dollar idea for a new television show well, forget it. That is the advice of George Foley, one of the bright young producers in the industry. "The odds are a milllon-to-one against an outsider putting across a fresh idea," he said. "That is one of the things wrong with the business but it's a fact." Then Foley, who at 33 has had an Horatio Alger like rise (he grossed more than $1,000,000 last year as an independent producer), explained v hy: "As a practical matter, if you live in Oshkosh and have a crack erjack idea, it would be all but impossible to sell it. "Having an idea is one thing. Putting it in shape to sell and then selling it that is the real trick. It costs $15,000 to $50,000 to get a show ready to go on the air. "You have to know how to clear your title to the show, find good writers to turn out a few sample acripts, hire artists to make sample WE MAKE YOUR WATCH KEEP TIME 400 N.

Monopoly Center Cited "And 75 per cent of all TV shows are bought and sold within a 15-block radius of Radio City here in New York. It's being able to open up the doors in that area that counts." Even an experienced big-name producer has trouble selling an idea for a new type show, accord ing to Foley, because there is "too much follow - the leader think ing in the field, too much imita tion. "If you get a hit show, every other sponsor in the country de cides he wants one as much like it as possible. "But people get tired of too many shows with the same theme. You lose your audience, the show's rating drops, the sponsor feels he isn't getting his money's worth everybody is sour." What is the answer? "We have to get more imagi nation into programming," said Foley, "and sell advertising spon sors oi) having more courage in backing new ideas. "Actually, in the long run, there is no greater gamble involved and the possible reward are much greater." Foley, a young lawyer with five children, went into television after leaving military service. In 15 months he sold $20 million in video Shoes-Main Floor BUT...

Yu ma's supply of the rare blood was exhausted and the girl was grow ing weaker every minute. Heming way aired the first plea on his 7:00 i s. m. show and Holbrook repeated it at 10:00 a.m. As soon as Heming , way went off the air, KHJ's phones were receiving calls from as far away as Washington and Oregon.
