In other cases, the commission
said it will act on applications filed
prior to the order for its inquiry,
and will issue construction permits
to applicants deemed eligible, but
on the condition that no construc-
ton work is to be done pending
determination of the policy to be

The purpose of issuing the permits,
it was said, is to give the applicants
a priority status.

The commission has completed
hearings on the fixing of standards

various branches of the industry,
it is expected the commission will

Phone Rate Hearing Set.
The two largest Investigations
facing the commission, after these
matters are out of the way, are
those on telephone rates and on
newspaper ownership of radio sta

The second phase of the tele-

Melvin Silver, IS, Wins Title
OF Wushington's Quiz Kid
WendeIe Tourover, Only Girl in
Finals, Is Runnerup in Addition

ington. He came here from New
York - the Bronx - about eight
months ago
1t was not a spelling bee. All
five finalistS stayed in until the
end When one missed a question,
his average went down.
Among the final questions shot at
the children by Bill Crago, N. B. c.
announcer, forbidding in white robe
and cap, were:
What was a Roundhead?
Bound Tennessee.
Name several authors whose
names suggest anger, surprise or
other eXclamations."
There was a trick question: IF
Mickey Rooney and Uncle Sam
started for Washington, which
would arrive first?"
But little Mendell Tourover re-
piled without hesitation: Mickey
Rooney, obviously, because Uncle
Sam is a mythical person.
Which was quite correct.
The judges were Big. Gen. Albert
L. Cox, District director of selective
service; Charles Cofer, professor of
education and psychology at George
Washington University. and William
R. Valance, secretary general OF
the Inter- American Bar Association.
The classroom of each finalist was
awarded a table radio.

Because he knew what a Round
head was, where the Brownings
lived and a lot of other things, Mel
vim Silver, 15-year-old Roosevelt
High School student, won the title
of Washington's Quiz Kid late yes
terday after competing, in a series
of elimination additions. with 124
other children.
Along with the title goes a Gov
ernment bond for $100, a table radio
for his classroom and-mOre impor-
tant-a trip to Chicago and a place
on the regular broadcast of the
famous Quiz Kids, who confound
their elders every Wednesday at 8
pm, to the delight of a Natiop-
wide audience.
The finals which put Melvin on
top were held at Hecht'S auditorium
before a tense and applauding crowd
that jammed the third floor Of the
department store.
On his last question. Melvin told
the judges that Wimpole street was
famous for the romance of Robert
Browning and Elizabeth Barrett
Browning and Main street was
where Sinclair Lewis Carol Kenni-
colt lived in the novel
Triumph Based on Average.
His triumph. however. was based
on his average for the entire quiz.
not on any one question.
Second place went to the only girl
among the finalists- -Wendelle Tour
over, II, of 4812 Thirtieth street
NV. a student at Alice Deal Junior
High.
The other finalists finished as
follows:
Third, Arthur Williams, II, of 1864
Bryan street NE, student of Tats

Fourth, Joe Gilbreth, IS, of 1000
Cathedral street NV, who attends
Gordon Junior High.
Fifth, Barney Athey, ID, of 1925
Fifteenth street NV. student of
Powell Junior High.
Melvin Silver. who proved the best
quiz kid the Capital could muster,
missed one question in the finals,
but still had the highest average
He was asked what would be the
occupation of a man who carried a

LONDON, April 6 Sunday
TWenty-four hours before Ger
many's invasion of Yugoslavia and
Greece early today, a British in
formant with the best of sources
made a mental wager on GermanyS
next move and rated the invasion
of Yugoslavia first and of England
fifth in probability.
This authority ranked the inva-
sion outlook in this order:
Yugoslavia, Greece, European Tur-
key. Spain to reach Gibraltar, Eng
land, Ireland, the Russian Ukraine.
In putting England so far down
the line, he explained:
THE invasion of England could
scarcely be launched without US
knowing it some days in advance. 1t
would be impossible to conceal prep
arations which would give us the
tipoff These are not now in evi-
dence"
A move against Yugoslavia was
placed first because of estimates that
$4,000 German troops were already
on or near the borders of that coun-
try.
