* Phyllis and cameraman Dan
Keever and producer Michacl
Fieids spent several weeks
putting together the special
which depicts such areas.as a
basketball clinic conducted
by stars of the Atlanta Hawks,
golf lessons, track meets,
drama classes, guitar lessons,
arts and crafts, bus trips into
the country, visits to Channel
5, the Coca-Cola Co., and oth-
er industries to say nothing
of the various activities on
playgrounds and in pools in
the Atlanta area.

- The “Swinging Summer”
will afford Atlanta area view-
ers a better picture of what is
going on in and around the
city. Thousands will see activ-
ity they never dreamed took
place here,

. In the finale the program
will offer a montage of the
many-sided program, high-
lighted by a “block party” in
which underprivileged young-
sters are fed from mobile

lunch rooms.
