FPHA Wants Answers Before
it Declares Land Surplus

Federal Public Housing Admins
tration officials want some ques-
lions answered before portions Of
the Willow Run housing area are
offered for sale.
Willow Run Area Planning Com
mittee, which has retained Saarin-
en- and Swanson to plan the eastern
Washtenaw area, has for some time
been seeking TO have portions of
the federal housing area declared
surplus so that 1t may be sold and
privately developed.
The following information has
been requested by government
agencies:
Written approval by the Plan
ming Committee OF the development
proposed by the planning firm;
Approval from the county road
commission OF the proposed streets
and roads in the area;
Evidence that Ypsilanti Town.
ship has the financial reserves to
purchase the sewage disposal plant.
Evidence that somebody Will Duy
the land in question.
Possible answers to the questions
may be that since the committee
is paying for plans II may be infer
red that the committee approves
the plans.
As regards approval OF the roads,
there may be some question In
view OF the fact that the county
road commission has not been in
the habit OF expressing formal APP
prevail or disapproval Of road sys-
TENS. An exception might be
made, however, in this particular
case

Answer 10 the third question rel

The efficiency of this non-proft enterprise

hard working staff, but they are not ndiffer-
ent. If program falls short of the usual stand
ards or if some mechanical casualty cuts it
off the air, the complaints usually come in
thick and fast. Occasionally, gripes are slower.
The Swarthmore regulars well remember the
night their most earnest dramatists sweated
out an act and half of "The Hairy Ape"
before someone phoned in to ask why they'd
called it off. Seems there was loose connec-
ton.
But most programs 60 on as scheduled and
recently some of the colleges - Swarthmore,
Haverford and Bryn Mawr, for example
have formed regional networks to exchange
broadcasts two or three evenings a week
This information often causes outsiders to
lift eyebrows and mention the Federal Com
municatlons Commission Do the college
stations have licenses? If not, how come?
Getting Around the FEC
UNDERGRADUATE ingenuity is the answer. To
the FEC, radio station is not a radio station
unless it broadcasts beyond a range of some
200 feet
To be sure, some of the Swarthmore dormi-
tories are as much as a half mile from the
studio. Haverford, of course, is miles away.
Here's the trick. The students use low
power transmitter Us to 20 watts) from
which they run network of feeder wires to
various reception areas such as dormitories
and fraternity houses. At the receiving end,
these wires are coupled with power lines (the
heating pipe connections are now old hat
which run around the buildings and which
then serve as transmitting antenna. Thus
almost anyone in the college community
can pick up the broadcasts. But the trans
missions don't radiate more than 200
feet from any part of the system.
Technician Joe Rutledge explains that re-
ception is also possible in buildings not tapped
into the wire network because of thing called
phantom coupling This occurs when a
feeder line runs close to regular power line,
for example The transmission jumps.
For the college-to-coege networks, the
stations simply lease cross-country wires from
the telephone company, as do all other radio
networks.
The Collegiate Touch
| HE only other technical item worth noting
is that the college stations broadcast on the
standard frequency band, between 500 and
700 kilocycles. picking spots far enough from
big commercial stations to avoid interference.
One difference between the college and
commercial stations lies in the seriousness
with which the latter regard themselves. Com
mercial stations assume responsibility for a
whole nations economy. Chewing gum, face
lotion and razor blades must be moved, as
they say, and moved without hitch Con-
fronted with this stern obligation, CONNER
cial radio carries on its business in an atmos-
phere of sober austerity, compared with the

Drive With Care

Last week, an Ashe county youth lost
his life and others were injured, when two
cars collided at highway intersection.
There is always more of a chance of an ac-
cident at an intersection, that is why it is
necessary to literally stop, look and lis
ten"
The condition of highways, as well as
many cars now being operated, make driv-
ing more hazardous than it once was. And
for that reason, extra precaution must be
taken.
We are of the opinion that at such an
intersection as was the scene of the acct
dent in Jefferson, a stop, or at least, eau
ton light would help.
West Jefferson has also long needed
some stop lights. We hope that these, too,
can be secured without further delay; for
they may be the means of preventing &C.
cidents.

Army Day, April 6

Tomorrow will mark the first postwar

it has dual purpose, to pay tribute to the

Although this is the first Army Day cele-
bration since Pearl Harbor, in the years
before World War II, this was day of
commemoration throughout the county.
Since then, we have also learned that
we must have measure of defense in times
of peace as well as war and that in this,
we must have unity.

Buy Easter Seals

Today, the annual sale of Easter Seals
for the aid of crippled children opens and
through them the public will have an op-
portunity to cooperate in most worthy
cause.
The seals, themselves, are attractive,
and we think it is particularly fitting that
they be sold at Easter time; for this is the
time of the year when we think deeply of
the things for which Christ lived and died.
Remembering what He did for chill
dren, surely everyone should be moved to
contribute something to this fund to help
the crippled children.
Your contribution may be the means Of
paving the way to happiness and health.

use them.
