Dr. L. M. Greene made the | mo- tion after hearing a letter read out from Mrs_ Dolores MacIn- tosh, proprietor of Dolore’s Re- record Store, 317 Third Avenue West. Mrs. MacIntosh said she had been told that “no television certificates I accept as part- payment by a customer on a TV seats sold in my store will be negotiable.” SEEKS CLARIFICATION : She asked for some clarifica- tion of the matter. The $25 scheme, introduced in November by Skeena Broadcas- ters Limited. called for local dealers to sell as many of the $25 certificates as possible be- fore an extended deadline of February 15. Money from the certificates was then to be used to help fin- ance the cost of operating the Terrace television station for two years. A similar plan was In opera- tion at the same thme in Terrace and Kitdnrat. The $25 certifleates were to be accepted by the participating dealers as cash on the purchase of a TV set. One certificate al- lows the holder to purchase a TV set of his choice from any participating dealer. The dealers would then use the certificates to pay for ad- vertising alr time over the first two-year period of operation of the station. TV BEFORE ‘68 Object of the plan was to en- able Prince Rupert to ‘have tele- vision before the end of this yenr, The $25 certificate was re- payable on demand if the holder left. the area or wished to with- draw jt any time prior to the station being Ncenced, Technically speaking, the station is now Heeneed and re- payment is unlikely.
