It'll focus on Brad.
The man suspected of being the child molester
in Oak Cliff
has been arrested.
38-year-old John McDaniel Whiteman
has allegedly been luring young boys from
school and-
The final day win the Big Eight title in 1982.
In the pros, Grosso held a brief workout today.
They'll be home for the weekend, a couple of
days off
as far as Coach Landry is concerned, tomorrow
and Sunday.
Everyone's still quite pleased, however,
with yesterday's performance against-
I forgot who they played yesterday.
Help me out.
Who did they play?
The Browns.
The Browns, Cleveland Browns.
Did you ever have one of those mental blocks?
You forget who they play?
Tony Dorsett looked great against the Cleveland Browns.
Injured to or not, he looked great.
Mike Fernandez has that story.
Earlier in the week, there was mild alarm.
Mike Fernandez, Channel 5 Action Sports.
Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Browns.
Cleveland Browns, yeah.
See you at six.
Now, thanks, guys.
See you later.
Well, with this installment, travel reporter
Paul Ryan.
We've got it all.
Well, quite frankly, I'm at a loss as to what
to do right now.
We ordinarily go to the weather segment.
That's true, and we're waiting.
At this particular point in time.
Harold, are you going to come over here and
talk to us tonight?
He's nodding his head yes.
We had asked a little bit earlier whether the weather
there were any more W's in the forecast
after a warm and windy Wednesday.
And after looking at the radar a little bit,
I wonder if maybe there's a little wane in the forecast.
I know.
Why don't we go ahead and do this story while I give
Harold a chance to get over here.
All right, let's do.
All right, go ahead.
Well, doctors around the country tonight
are excited about a new drug that
may help sufferers of kidney stones
see them from reaching the urinary tract. Incredible.
That's quite a breakthrough.
And Harold is with us now.
We're so glad that you could join us.
I know you've had some last minute problems.
Yes, I was detained by the mechanical group.
The wonder of computers.
It goes fast, but you can't speed it.
Well, it was tough to even walk today at times.
It was that.
The wind was so strong.
In the downtown areas, the winds were probably
50-60 miles an hour in some places.
I saw gusts at the airport at a few scattered
showers tomorrow
and temperatures down about 10 degrees.
OK, thank you, Harold.
I can't remember when I've been so happy to see somebody.
Look forward to seeing you tonight at 10.
Still ahead on the 6:00 edition of Action News,
a tribute to the increasing number of women on
the job.
Harvey Martin does it.
Mike Fernandez, Channel 5 Action Sports.
So many baseball, football, basketball players
get a chance to go out and play in a lot of
these pro celebrity
golf tournaments over the course of the years.
But I want to tell you, Brad, Jane,
I have never seen an athlete outside of maybe,
now I've drawn a blank, played for the Green
Bay Packers,
lives in Dallas now.
I can't think of his name to save my life.
Running back, help me out. Anderson.
Donnie Anderson.
Donnie Anderson, thank you.
I drew a mental block, whale of a golfer.
But let me tell you, Johnny Bench right up
there as well.
And hopefully good things will come out
of the Nebraska game in the Orange Bowl
and maybe a national championship
by this time tomorrow night.
Well, thank you and happy new year to everyone.
OK, thank you, Barry coach.
Very much, Fred coach.
Fred Akers, the Texas coach.
We talk about that national team coming up tomorrow
for the Longhorns.
If Nebraska should.
Well, in pro football, the big story
revolved today around this article in the
Dallas Morning
News which stated simply, and I forgot
to bring the newspaper out.
This is where I'm supposed to hold the
newspaper up.
I just suddenly realized.
We saw it at six.
Let me tell you about the article.
It says that Gary Holgerboom and Butch Johnson
wanted to be traded by the Cowboys.
From anywhere on the field.
And when you play against these guys, they're
awfully good.
Well, the Super Bowl, of course, coming up
two weeks from today.
Tampa Bay, Florida.
Just your thoughts.
Now we got the L is presently 19.
For members of the Cowboys now enjoying the off season,
basketball offers an alternative of sorts for relaxation.
Dennis Thurman tonight takes a look at what he
has more.
Check that.
I'm sorry.
Let me start all over again.
Start over again.
I will start over again.
I wanted I was going to tell you about Dennis
Thurman being
a part of our staff as we have introduced you
over the last several weeks.
Let me tell you the Cowboys veteran cornerback.
It's one of those nights, folks.
Let me take the glasses off.
That's the problem.
The Cowboys veteran quarterback has
more in this report for you.
Well, I'm a big Mark McGuire.
...to 32.
Off the court in the NBA, the All-Star team
announced earlier today, no member,
to no one's surprise, of the Mavericks is on
the roster.
However, when additions are made,
count on Mark McGuire to be among them.
Mike Fernandez has more on the Dallas forward.
In this, his third...
...wind up with a 38-9 blowout over the skins.
Now, Mike Fernandez is in Tampa Bay and after
the game,
paid a visit to a very jubilant Raider locker room.
And I see that we have Scott live.
So let's go to Scott now in Tampa. Scott?
All right, thanks very much, Alan.
And we are coming to you live from Tampa Bay,
Tampa Stadium,
Tampa, Florida.
It is very cold.
It is very chilly.
This is an alternate, so the top five go at it tomorrow.
Now, for the slam dunk competition,
Anne and I like Dr. J. What do you like?
I don't see how you can...
Did you see the one we had last night?
I shouldn't get off the subject.
I'm trying to think who that was.
Oh, Atlanta Hawks, help me out there.
Don't look at me.
I've got a mental block, I can't think of the...
Dominique Wilkins, thank you.
Nate Terply, my man over here, he knows basketball.
Dominique Wilkins, that's gotta be one of the
best slam dunkers
I've ever seen.
But I'll go with Dr. J, he's pretty good.
Okay, all right.
I've gotten so far, I've never even gotten to
the stadium.
If you want to see Morgana, and trust me,
there's plenty to see, you can catch her this weekend
at the Autorama Dallas Market Center.
Time out, time out. Mwah!
I bet you Scott wishes he had this story.
I'm not so sure that's true.
She kissed George Brett, he got hemorrhoids.
She kissed Steve Garvey, and he got a divorce.
I don't know what lies ahead for old Michael.
Well, he's not...
It's your claim to fame, it's the jinx of Morgana.
Well, Mike's not married so he can't get divorced.
We won't comment on the other one.
We know what lies ahead in the weather,
it just keeps on... Great.
Well, I don't know how you'd rate the weather today.
We have to give it almost a perfect score.
Temperature got up into the low 60s,
quite a change from a year ago.
And, hmm.
I haven't the vaguest idea what that is.
Not the vaguest idea in this world what that is.
But it must be.
Temperatures today range up from the $62 low field.
58 was the high.
On our win, you'll need a jacket for the parade.
All right, we'll keep that in mind.
And as evidenced at the top of the weather,
I think we should keep in mind that Big Brother
is always watching.
A little surprising to find out he was a surveyor.
That came as kind of a shock.
The going is rough tonight for Eastern Airlines.
All channel five action news tonight.
As for what's happening in the world of sports,
Scott Murray just hustled in from the sports department,
where you guys have been hustling all night.
It is unbelievable.
We thought we'd have a final on the Mavericks.
We talked the last couple of nights about the
fact that,
hey, maybe the Mavericks,
for the first time ever in their history,
would win a ball game and beat the Philadelphia 76ers.
Stop laughing.
Should we tell them what we're laughing at?
Come on, go ahead.
Tell them what we're laughing at.
It is paranoia in the sports department right now
because what is happening is the Mavericks
for the first time in their history
are now in double overtime.
Oh my, no wonder.
Dr. J has just fallen out,
to the chances the Mavericks pointed out tonight,
but as we speak, they're still playing.
I grabbed the wrong jacket.
This is what I wore at five.
Then I had to go to the Davey O'Brien dinner tonight.
It was a black tie affair.
I still have this part on,
but I grabbed the wrong jacket.
Don't have the tuxedo on.
So stop laughing at me.
You're a trendsetter.
Let me get to my sports.
That's a pinstripe tuxedo.
Pinstripe tuxedo.
Something new, coming up in 1984,
and you saw it first, right here on channel
five sports.
Mavericks 109, Sixers 108.
That is how it now stands.
Actually, about two inches,
but it melded about as fast as it fell.
Well, here in our area in North Texas today,
39 degrees is the normal low temperature,
and that's what it was this morning,
but it warmed this afternoon.
Thank you.
It warmed this afternoon to...
Well, thank you.
You can't see it, but it's 47 degrees.
That's what it is.
Right there.
Well, let's see what else we got.
I think the rest of it will be all right.
Climbing in a little light rain.
She is the lady who was the singing matriarch
of Catfish Row
in Gershwin's Broadway production of Borgy and Pes.
Borgy and, let me try that again,
Porgy and Bess, I'll get it right.
She's now blind, and so am I folks,
but she's doing well and living in a nursing home
over in Manhattan, and her Broadway friends say
despite the fact she is 106 years old,
she can still belt out sweet Georgia Brown,
and her timing is perfect.
Wish I had her timing.
Well, for the first four days of the new movie, Footloose,
it brought in, but as you can see,
a lot of precipitation over here
in the central part of the country.
Well, outside, it's still kind of dreary looking,
and yeah, okay.
We'll get in in just a minute.
There it is, winds, see you the election night.
We'll be back tomorrow with all the weekend's news
and Bobby Wigand's weekly movie review.
Until then, good night.
Good night, everybody.
This has been Channel 5 News,
the best newscast in Texas.
Join us tomorrow when the news continues on
Channel 5.
The fight, the best welterweights in the division.
World champion, Donald Currie, thanks much for
stopping by.
We appreciate it.
Thank you, Scott.
All right, very good.
In pro football, New Orleans outscored Denver.
I mean, 87, 90, 94, 96, on the weekend.
Okay, thank you, Harold.
Liberace is giving Dallas audiences
a much bigger show than most cities get.
Mr. Showmanship tells Channel 5's Bobby Wigand why.
We don't have that, but we'll try to find out why
and tell you in a minute.
We may or we may not be back.
We'll check it out.
It was the first place at the Dallas Zoo.
Hey, alright.
I'm so glad you didn't.
That's the best song I've ever heard you sing.
Do you like that, Bag Lady?
Oh, I'm glad.
You know what, I'm glad you didn't ask me to
sing, because I've never heard that song before.
You haven't heard that one before.
I'm glad you didn't ask me to sing, too.
Thanks, Bag Lady.
Hey, what was that thing making noise back there?
Wasn't that exciting?
That is what it was.
It's one of the animals that needs a parent.
Now, I could have brought a nice fuzzy little animal.
And I could have brought something with nice
pretty fluffy feathers.
But instead.
But everybody needs adopted, and everybody
needs to be loved, right?
So I've got a little guy in here.
Oh, not a snake.
No, it's not a snake.
It's a wonderful little animal that came all
the way from Australia.
How do you like the flight?
Well, he really, his ancestors come from Australia.
A blue tongued skink.
That's right.
Lightweight title fight, another upset of sorts tonight.
Livingstone Bramble was upset, or I should say
he upset Boom Bam, Boom Boom Mancini.
So Boom Bam, Boom Bam, in Bump City and Ba
Boom, Boom Boom Mancini was a loser tonight.
Thank God it's Friday.
Major League Baseball, the Rangers in Seattle
tied at three in the eighth.
Let's go to the stadium.
We'll pick it up in the Bam Bam seventh inning tonight.
I can't believe it.
Sample hitch to left goes to third.
Pete right around the score.
I mean, Pete O'Brien.
It's going to be one of those nights.
Tied the ballgame at three, and that's how it
now stands in the eighth.
The Rangers and the Seattle Mariners.
Off the field, Rangers have made some roster changes.
We need a roster change right here tonight.
Catcher Donnie Scott has been recalled from
Oklahoma City.
Pitcher Ricky Wright sent down to the 89ers the
contract to pitcher Joey McLaughlin, purchased
by Texas and veteran pitcher Jim Bibby placed
in waivers in order to give him his out-rise release.
Hold it now just a second.
I'd just like to tell people at home that if
you have friends who are watching four
or eight, tell them to turn to five.
This is going to be a good one. Thanks.
On the board in the American League, I'm hoarse now.
California over Cleveland five to two, Detroit
over Baltimore 14 to two, Toronto beating
New York 10 to two, Chicago not leaving Oakland
six to four in the eighth, Boston over Milwaukee
three to one.
Welcome to the second day of summer and welcome
to the hottest day once again of 1984.
We beat out yesterday.
Now we've got oh, ninety eight and a half,
ninety nine degrees on our thermometer, but
it has been two one hundred on our thermometer
and most throughout the Metroplex.
And at DFW Airport, take a look at this.
One hundred and one.
This is Channel 5 KXAS TV.
Coming up, Channel 5 news at ten, the best
newscast in Texas.
Do I look okay?
Because he is pushing economic programs to help
the Texas border economy.
And one thing that is certainly helping the
Texas economy, I guess, will be, well, I'll
get to that in a minute.
Let's talk about first.
Well, let's talk about what people did on
Sunday afternoon while men in the Dallas Fort
Worth area.
There are lots of great places to eat.
Many of the delegates are finding their way
just fine.
I guess they want a tip, but what about all
those news and food hungry reporters?
Well, Tim Smith from Money Desk 5 has their story.
The delegates work hard listening and cheering
and stuff over the Dallas Fort Worth area,
restaurants, restaurants, you name it, they all
talked about it.
Mike Fernandez found the same to be much or
found the same to be true as this report.
Carol was arguably the biggest.
Telly Savales, the official group slogan is,
the Lord is just, the Lord is fair.
He gave some men, let me try it again, some men
brains, obviously, and others hair.
I've got hair.
I was going to say something.
I know, you didn't have to.
That's our news for this Sunday night.
Thanks for watching and have a good week ahead.
Now, stay tuned for Alan Mallory and Sports
Extra until next weekend.
So long.
Good night.
Three degrees, that was the high.
So we'll try and eliminate that, see if we can
take it off.
For some reason, it does not seem to want to
come off.
So let's take a quick look at the satellite
picture for CAN.
And you'll notice on that that the clouds
covering nearly all of the state with some
of the heavier precipitation areas on off into
the west and into the northwest.
The clouds not producing any rainfall here in
our area at the present time.
Well, let's see.
We are having some problems with the computer
as you probably have already ascertained.
And let's see if I can get this thing to change.
No, it doesn't want to change.
So I'll just have to tell you what's going on.
There are no fronts in the area, but out into
the New Mexico.
This has been Channel 5 News at noon, the best
newscast in Texas.
Join us at 5, 6 and 10 when the news continues
on Channel 5.
By Bud Light.
Here is Jennifer McLogan, NBC News.
The average lost almost two points to close at
1195.89 on heavy volume of nearly 100 million shares.
But Channel 5's business analyst, Jeff Elliot
says things could have been a lot worse had
it not been for some good news late in the day.
Good morning.
Yesterday, all the action in the markets was
centered around the announcement by British
Petroleum that they were going to lower the
price of crude oil by $1.35.
Although this was big news and caused a sharp
sell off, we rallied late in the day for the
Dow to close down only two.
The announcement caused a big decline in oil
stocks and limit moves down in heating oil
and crude oil prices.
But the bond market loved the news and rallied
in expectation of lower inflation in the months ahead.
Analysts have been talking about this drop in
crude oil for a few weeks.
So by the end of trading yesterday, the news
had been discounted.
But the real impact is the fuel this adds to
our recovery.
As energy prices drop, transportation costs
drop, and the industry costs-
Obviously, a problem with that tape.
Excuse us.
State Attorney General's Base Museum.
After the tour, they got to meet President Reagan.
When our astronauts put the first American
footprints on the moon.
Thank you, Mr. President.
Unlike Little Miss Beauty Pa-
What are you going to order?
I don't drink.
I'm ordering orange juice.
Selling non-alcoholic beverages is getting to
be the rage in Dallas.
Clubs like In Cahoots are starting to push them
and they say they're going to be able
to get more business and hopefully not cut into
their alcohol business.
This is Bob Segal reporting live in Dallas.
Thank you, Bob.
Well, a couple of announcements tonight from
the Dallas political front.
Announcements involving former County
Commissioner Jim Tyson and City Councilman Jim Richards.
Oh boy.
Jim Tyson today made an official hill rate run
for Dallas City Council place seven.
That's Pleasant Grove.
Tyson says that- I'm doing Mr. Tyson a terrible
disservice here for which I apologize.
At any rate, he says the current problem with
the council is that they're too serious and
he plans to pepper things up with some choice
one liners.
North Dallas incumbent council member Jim
Richards meantime announced his intention
to run for reelection.
Richards says his priority items include-
turnabout's fair play, isn't it?
He says he plans to help solve the city's
serious traffic and transportation problems
as well as seeking a reduction in property
taxes this year.
Everything has tickled our funny bone.
Fort Worth's business leaders say the city's
future is looking bright.
That was the general opinion.
Now it's my turn.
That was the general opinion today at the
annual chamber of-
Just today even.
Thank you, Harold.
And you thought we weren't coming back.
Elizabeth Taylor is apparently not ready for
her eighth trip down the aisle for the station.
But tonight, because of that sentence, the
criminal justice system in Dallas County is
under attack.
Channel 5 reporter Victor Solis says a group of
black community leaders led by Diane Ragsdale
plan to file a federal lawsuit challenging the
fairness of the grand jury system.
18 year old anywhere, they're being shown in
their entirety and Channel 5's Bob Segal
was there.
They were lining up today at SMU hoping to get
in and this is what they wanted to see.
These films on the other hand that we're
showing were never meant to be seen by white audiences.
Tyler talked yesterday, I think we're in for a
little bit of rain sometime after midnight,
I think before we get anything here.
But we'll look at that in a moment.
Wind has come around into the south and that's
kept the temperatures up.
And for that we can be very thankful.
How strong is the wind?
No, the other way.
There we go.
About 10 miles an hour.
Not too bad.
But keeping the temperatures up.
I do not share last year compared to losing
more than $6 a share the previous year.
The credit for the game goes to an increase in
the shipments of semiconductors.
Well talk about winners.
It's time for sports with Alan Laughlin and SMU.
Alan Laughlin.
Oh goodness, I've been away for a couple of
days folks you have to understand.
Alan, I didn't mean to insult you.
Remember I'm the guy you lost the bet to the
Super Bowl on.
I was trying to forget that.
That's right.
I'm sure you were.
SMU could be number one.
Well Georgetown loses.
We got an affair out through the west.
And on the forecast, well we look at the isles first.
See that wind northeast five miles an hour, the
barometer, what are we showing?
30 and about 2,200 I suspect.
Well now Pat Warren is on the news on the
weekend and we're glad that we can show you that.
The radar is showing nothing whatsoever right now.
Oh I know something I want to tell you.
And Meteorologist David Finbrock with today's
weather forecast.
Coming up next on Channel 5 News, Fort Worth
Police question a man who may be connected
with the death of one of the area's murdered
young women.
While in Dallas a shootout with police leaves
one man dead.
What companies might be able to afford Bell
Helicopter's billion dollar price tag?
There goes by the name of Ringo Starr.
I guess it's time for us old folks to go to bed.
Speak for yourself.
We will go to bed.
We will see you tomorrow.
Good night. Separately.
Good night.
This has been Channel 5 News Tonight.
The best newscast in Texas.
Join us tomorrow morning at 6:30 and again at
noon, 5 and 6 when the news continues on
Channel 5.
Clippers tonight Brad.
You've won 12 of 14 against this club.
This is the best team that you have ever done
against as far as you know since the Mavericks
have been in the league.
And that district 2 council race in Dallas has
been one of the most nasty with a bevy
of mudslinging campaign claims.
Our Bob Letter has been following that contest
and joins us with one of our live units now
from the headquarters of Lori Palmer. Bob.
We're here now live.
I think we've had some technical difficulties
but we're back at Lori Palmer City.
This has been quite a campaign.
If you take Dynasty Dallas and Falcon Crest,
wrap it up into one package and that'll basically
tell you what district 2 campaign this year has
been all about.
Miss Palmer has been a rough race.
But still you came out on top.
What do you attribute it to?
I mean either you're the toughest or what?
What was it?
I attribute it to the best and kindest teachers
they ever had.
That's our news for now.
Join Mike who will be live in Austin and me
next, I mean on the 10:00 news, Scott
Murray will have sports extra.
This weekend I'm seeing Ronda.
The orchestra for tickets.
Well, we've got, they told me it was going to
be a two minute commercial and wound up
being one minute.
So I got, all right, I got caught.
Well, a nice sunset this evening and lots of
sunshine today across the area of the high clouds.
Well, they call it Six Flags over, did I say
that right?
Let me try that again.
They used to call it Six Frogs over Greenville.
A Dallas nightclub known as Tangos put 10 foot
tall frogs on its roof.
Blue Jays defeated the Yankees.
The winning run came across when Yanks third
baseman, Mike Pagliarulo, missed the tag at third.
And that's the mirror on your screen folks, not
the tag at third.
Here we come.
Watch him miss the tag.
And then the overthrow at first, Lloyd Mosby
come all the way around to score from second
and Toronto beat New York by a square.
Charlie Huff on the mound for Texas, shortstop
Wayne Tonish are now standing by at the stadium
with one of our live units.
I think he's not there.
Wayne, are you there? No.
Wayne's not there.
Doesn't look like Wayne to me.
No, it sure doesn't.
We'll get back to Wayne momentarily.
Apparently he's in batting practice or
something thereabouts.
Major League Baseball this afternoon.
We've got one game we can.
1:94 inches of rain in 1944, but we'd have set
a new record today had we had the rain
gauge setting out on the western side of Fort Worth.
Got to have the proof.
The People's Court.
State days at 430 on Channel 5.
Start things off with pro football and the NFL
Cowboys continue workouts in Thousand
Oaks, California.
Eleven players, free agent rookies released today.
Three of those wide receivers, but of course
the big question tonight, where is Tony Dorsett?
Well, my understanding is that this portion of
the camp is voluntary as opposed to mandatory.
Doesn't Tony actually have a couple more days?
That's a good point.
It is mandatory, but I think all the coaches
expect you to show up anyway.
You know, you're not expected to be there until Thursday.
That's when all the veterans are doing camp,
everybody as a whole.
The wide receivers, the centers, the
quarterbacks in the running backs all expected
to be back
in camp on Sunday, as you said, it was not
mandatory, but when you don't show up, they
say, where are you?
Now, I don't know what mandatory means if
you're not, you know, so that's right.
Exactly right.
But apparently some problems with the IRS.
I talked to, all right.
Rangers on the Yankee 735.
About 40,000 expected on hand here tonight.
Clear skies.
Come on out.
See a good ballgame.
We'll see more.
We'll see more of a jam at 157 and 30.
Tony Dorsett still heading away.
25 years of caring for everybody.
Well, there we go again.
Doesn't look very impressive right now, but we
did have some showers in the area today.
Formula's the same, but I like the new can.
It's very attractive.
Should be in the stores this weekend.
Should be a Tuesday in there.
For all of those folks who need a Coke fix. Yeah.
Thank you.
Next, we have Scott Murray with the latest on.
Little bit bigger, you know, in the NFL, but
it's more or less the same type of job.
Briefly tonight.
Mavericks assistant coach Bob Weiss will
interview for the New Jersey Nets head coaching vacancy.
SMU's Dave Bliss also still in the running, and
of course you got a chance tonight to
see my Rodney Dangerfield impersonation as we
get caught fixing the tie.
But you get considerably more respect.
Cleveland, I would hope so.
Cleveland 7, Rangers 4.
It is in the ninth, and that is it.
Okay, Scott.
Thanks a lot.
Well, controversy over what should...
While on the East Coast, Dolphins quarterback
Dan Marino remains in Pittsburgh refusing to
take part in Miami workouts until his contract
is renegotiated.
And apparently those contract demands not
simply confined to the world of sport.
Here at Channel 5, our own Nate Tarpley says he
plans to turn in his broom and less management
here at the station spends a few extra bucks
and gets one of those new, more modern electric sweepers.
Gosh, you never know when it's all going to
come to an end, dude.
He's holding out again.
I tell you.
That's all the time we have tonight.
For those of you who stay up late and watch the day...
Texas and Louisiana coasts are bracing for an
unwelcome visitor this afternoon by the
name of Danny.
Danny is a hurricane.
He's a growing boy, and the people on the coast
are ready for a blow.
In Venice, a steady stream of crew boats move
sometime tomorrow.
Joining us live via telephone hookup now from
Thousand Oaks, California is Scott Murray with
the latest. Scott?
Let me pick up the phone.
Scott, are you there?
Yes, Allen, I am.
What is the latest on the Dorset situation?
Well, right now Dorset will be in camp.
But then came the six run Oriole third.
Mike Young just loves Ranger pitching and had
another feast tonight, gets a two run
single here.
Birds got four...
Almost eight.
And a half.
Almost 80,000 people were expected to trek out
here to this year's Jam tonight, Mike
and Ramona.
We can see some of the lucky ones closest to
the stage getting sprayed with water right now.
Tomorrow they'll be scattered mostly well to
the south of us, though, and I think we're
going to be dry with some sunshine.
If someone could hit my little button over
there, we'll get back to the computer, because
we're having a little problem.
This button is apparently broken.
These funny things happen.
I guess it's a Saturday night and it's a late
one and that's one of the reasons.
All right, let's go to the United States
weather map right now.
The other switch there, that'll take care of it.
Excuse us, folks, what can I say?
Low pressure centered up over the Great Lakes,
and rain spreading five was five 100ths of an inch.
We do not have anything on the computer for the forecast.
So we're going to have to take a look at the forecast
in just a second.
OK, well, here we go.
I'll have to walk across the shot here.
Things are a mess tonight.
What can I say?
The forecast is going to be mostly sunny
the next couple of days, lows around 70 degrees
and 100.
Start things off with pro football and the National
Football League.
Co-host coach Tom Landry reaffirming today.
Tonight, Danny White will be giving my mic on. Hello.
Yeah, take a day off, and see what no sleep
does to you.
We're up 24 hours for the Jerry Lewis telethon.
And, uh.
That's OK.
We'll give that to you.
We're still totally caught up in the sleep.
My apologies.
We'll start things off all over again
and say that coach Landry of the Cowboys
has reaffirmed that Danny White will be the starting.
Well, anyway, have an ice day.
It's just what the doctor ordered.
Jack Halsall, Channel 5 News.
Or you can have an ice night since the Brand
Brothers expect
to man their refrigerated trailer along Jacksboro
Highway at least until dark or until they run
out of ice.
Whichever comes first.
A novel idea.
I bet they run out of ice.
I think you're probably right.
And that's it for us for now.
We'll see you tonight at 10.
Until then, for all of us here at Channel 5 News,
have a nice evening.
We're going out to get ice.
