Live election TV

Adelphia Communications will offer live election night TV coverage beginning 10 p.m. Tuesday on Channel 10 in Hermosa and Manhattan and Channel 21 in Redondo Beach, accepting live on-air phone calls from the public at 374-1258.

The broadcast is scheduled to last one hour but may be extended.

Co-anchors Greg Wyatt and Dan Marinelli will update the beach cities election races and interview a number of current and former local politicians.

Measured response

A videotape replay of two pre-election forums–just the ballot measure arguments and no candidates for office–will air this week on Adelphia Communications Channel 8. Tentative air times are 7:30 p.m. Thursday and 7 p.m. Friday, but watchers are advised to check the on-air schedule. The taping is provided as a free public service by Hermosan Jim Lissner’s Too Busy Day Trading Productions.

Charity yacht cruise

Tickets are still available for a sunset cruise Friday, Nov. 2 aboard the 65-foot yacht "Galatea" to benefit the Beach Cities Toy Drive. The cruise, from 4 to 6:30 p.m., is sponsored by the Hermosa Beach Chamber of Commerce and Visitor’s Bureau and will feature live entertainment, food from local restaurants and a cash bar.

The "Galatea" is owned by High Five Boutique on the Pier Plaza, and the cruise will replace the fund-raising fashion shows High Five used to host for the holiday toy drive.

Tickets are $20 and are available at the Chamber, 1007 Hermosa Ave. opposite the Comedy & Magic Club, and High Five, 53D Pier Ave. The "Galatea," docked at 161 N. Harbor Drive in the Redondo Beach Marina, accommodates 80 passengers, and a second cruise will be added that evening if more than 80 tickets are sold, organizers said.

The toy drive benefits underprivileged children in the South Bay. ER
