What's on TV? Tuesday, October 6, 1959




Today's listings show us what would have been on NBC's afternoon schedule were it not for the World Series, but as fate (and the delayed start to the Series) would have it, the Dodgers and White Sox are facing off in Game 5 this afternoon from Los Angeles.

    2:45
-5- -6-  8  10 13 WORLD SERIES   SPECIAL    COLOR 

The game took a cool 2:28 to play (Chicago 1, Los Angeles 0, which means Game 6 on Wednesday), so regular programming should have resumed by 5:30 p.m. Not bad, hmm? This game, as well as the rest of the day's listings, is brought to you by the Minnesota edition.
