RE: Senator Mathias Invites you to
   Appear on Talk Show

ACTION

September 7, 1978

Senator Charles Mathias' legislative assistant called me this morning to sound you out. Mathias is about to launch a regular talk/interview show hosted by him which will appear on local television stations in Maryland. (When the first program is produced it will be made available for bids by the various local stations.)

Mathias wonders if you would be available to appear with him on his first show sometime this fall. Rather than write a formal letter and be turned down, he wanted to sound you out informally this way.

I told the assistant (a friend of mine, Casimir Yost, son of Charles Yost) that I didn't know whether you were available or how it would be affected by your NBC contract but I would certainly pass it on to you.

If you are interested I can convey this to Yost.
Mathias will send a formal invitation and you presumably will
have to work it out with NBC. If you cannot do it, I will
convey this to Yost on the basis of either the press of work,
the NBC problem, or both.

Interested _________

Can't do because of:

-- press of work _________

-- NBC problem _________

-- both _________
