Another survey that either was missing from the newspaper or is missing from the microfilm.  This week’s positions are taken from the “Last Week” column from next week’s survey, so some are unknown.  Both “Too Much Talk” and “Flights of Fantasy” are listed as having been number 25 this week.



Big leaps for “Lady Madonna” and “Honey.”



The six debuts were all minor national hits, topping out at 40, 53, 26, 53, 51 and 54; here they’ll make number 29, 15 (“Me the Peaceful Heart”), 14 (“Jennifer Juniper”), 36, 45 and 46.
