Excerpt from LETTERS, WE GET LETTERS!
TV Family, January 1973(?)
Dear TV Family:

I would like to start a note book on Ben Murphy. I would like to know his birth date and movies he has been in, and any other information on him. I would also like to know where to write to him. I enjoy your magazine very much. Thank you for everything.
