An interview scheduled for this morning on "Good Morning America"
with renowned pediatrician Benjamin Spock was cancelled late last
night (2/3),. the day before he was to discuss his recent trip to
Cuba to deliver much-needed medical supplies to the beleaguered
island.  A "Good Morning America" official said the cancellation
was due to space restrictions because of incoming news about
Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott.  However, this morning's edition
of the show apparently had enought extra air time to let the final
several minutes be a discussion of weatherman Spenser Chrsitian's
upcoming appearance on the syndicated "You Bet Your Life" show.
"Good Morning America" will not re-schedule the interview with
Spock, and outspoken critic of the U.S. embargo of Cuba.
