[Letter from Mario Marcel Salas to William B. Ray - June 18, 1974]

Letter from Mario Marcel Salas, president of the Black Coalition on Mass Media (BCMM), to William B. Ray of the Complaints and Compliance Division at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). He writes to request a 60 day extension for a petition to deny renewal of the KAPE radio license. He also asks that no renewal be given by the FCC until they are able to complete their investigation. The requests are made on the grounds that KAPE refused to provide BCMM members a copy of their 1974 renewal application, which is against the law.

[Letter from Mario Marcel Salas to Phil Watson - June 11, 1978]

Letter from Mario Marcel Salas of the Black Coalition on Mass Media to Phil Watson. He writes requesting that Mr. Watson evaluate an ordinance put out by the city of San Antonio regarding the UA-Columbia franchise, a cable television provider that was seeking business in the area. He also requested that one of Mr. Watson's people look over his own approach to the franchise before a hearing was to take place; presumably, Mr. Salas had concerns about the company coming to San Antonio.
