Greater Wichita is a metropolis of 2,304 square miles, slightly southeast of the exact center of the continental United States. Its economy is based on agriculture, livestock, manufacturing and petroleum. Wichita produces over 60% of all the business and private aircraft in use anywhere. It has a four season climate, and its population is 98.6% native born. Major airlines, railways and transcontinental highways converge here. It has in its bold, multimillion dollar cultural and civic center, one of the nation's finest facilities for conventions and trade shows. It has also the world's largest speech and hearing residential rehabilitation center, the world's largest single unit grain elevator, the nation's largest known natural gas reserves, a park for every one in one half square miles of its area, and no smog. These are facts, but facts fail to paint the full picture of what it is like to live in or to visit Wichita. - Rods, play at same tempo. Make it two before 42. Just the last four bars. - [Host] Gentlemen, the bidding will start as soon as everyone has seated. Will the convention delegates please take your seats. - Operator, I want area code 316-363-4997. Mr. Gentry. A local call? Thank you. Hello, Pete? Jim Kirk. No, I'm in town. Right in the heart of it. Century Two Civic Center. We've got a booth in the show. Say, this is quite a place. Have any trouble finding a place to stay? I should say none. - Mmm, that was good. Bob. - Well, I guess I better get back. What are you going to do this afternoon? - I think I'll go shopping. But first I'd like to see the library, so I'll walk with you. - Okay, fine. - As company representatives, you must be aware of all market influences and market indicators. Now, what do these business indicators mean to us as salesmen? The number of telephones in Wichita, for example, has increased from 52,600 at the end of World War II to over 211,000 today, an increase of over 300% in just 25 years. Telephone installations can provide some insight to the degree of industrial diversification that's so important to us. - Hi there. - Hi. - How did we rate this? - We try harder. - What's up? - Oh, we're going house hunting. - Oh? - What if you get transferred to Wichita? Well, I can dream, can I? - Hey, that's a nice one. - Oh, look at that one. - I'm wondering if we can afford to move to Wichita. - There are always apartments. And look at those, right by a tremendous shopping center. Remember when you said we couldn't afford to be transferred here? Well, I went shopping earlier. - [Bob] Uh-oh. - [Lady] No, really. The prices are really reasonable. - [Bob] How about living there? - Why not? We don't have a lake shore place now. I wonder what the schools are like.
