WMAQ Channel 5 - Sorting It Out (Part 1, 1976)

Here's Part 1 of an episode of Sorting It Out on WMAQ Channel 5. Sorting It Out was a locally produced news magazine type show that featured interesting people and events around Chicagoland. It starred Bob Smith and a pre-Cheers Shelley Long, who at this point was still mostly known for her work in Homemakers furniture commercials.

This part features a look at 18-year-old Jonathan Dietch and his invention of "Skateboard Sailing" at Montrose Harbor.

(Unfortunately, all of the commercial breaks and a few bits of the show were cut out of the original recording)

This aired on local Chicago TV on Saturday, November 27th 1976 during the 6 to 6:30pm timeframe.
