Football fans will see only one
college game a week on television
that one to be selected by the
program sponsor - if a plan
adopted by the National Collegi-
ate Athletic Associations 12-man
TV Committee meets with Govern
ment approval. The committee
was to confer today with As
sistant Attorney General H. Gra-
ham Morrison to be sure it was
on sound legal ground.
Headed by Tom Hamilton, Uni
versity of Pittsburgh athletic di-
rector, the committee came up
with a three-point plan. 1t de-
cided to permit colleges to tele-
wise only two games a year, one
at home and one away limit
telecasts to one game in any area
on any given Saturday, and de-
cree q blackout of each area on
at least one Saturday to gauge
the effect Of telecasts on at
tendance. .--..
The plan drastically would af-
feet such schools as Penn, a
pioneer in televising home games;
Notre Dame, which had a lucrative
contract for its home games, and
Big Ten Conference schools in
areas where State legislators have
demanded that State supported
schools televise their home games.
Wilson to Receive Bids.
Under the plan adopted yester-
day the NCAA will peddle it's mem
bers' schedules to the highest bid
der. who in turn can take his
choice. Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson,
|NCAA secretary, said he expected
to receive numerous bids but that
no plan for the distribution of
funds received from sale of TV
rights had been adopted. This
promises to be a hot potato for
the committee.
Hamilton emphasized that the
program would be experimental
for one year only. He pointed out
that football supported almost
three-fourths Of a colleges ath-
letic program. including intra-
Imurals. and that television had
made a dent in gate receipts.

BIG RACES AT

doxical that far fewer have fallen
than at some other fences. This is
laid to the fact that the riders ap-
proach the "Wall'' alert and ready,
while some of the smaller jumps
may occasionally be taken care
lessly and with dire results. For
example, the lowest jump of the 10
is only three feet high. But it is
a fence that has taken its toll be-
cause of its great depth and the
enormous leap a horse must make
in order to clear it. 1t is "a feet
overall, 16 being over water. Thus
horse must carry through the air
more than "a feet in order to have
sufficient takeoff and landing room.
Since large fields have many times
been the rule at Fair Hill, and since
they were expected when the
course was laid out, everything has
been done on large scale. The
first three fences are 100 feet wide.
Subsequently the width of the fenc-
es drops to 72 feet which is wider
than those found at most of the
big tracks. Eleven of the jumps
are 70 feet. Three others, in addi-
ton to the first three encountered,
are 100 feet wide each. The last
two are only "a feet wide, but this
has been done deliberately. At the
end of the long three miles the field
is either well strung out or other
wise reduced, SO that 64 feet is
more than ample. This part of the
course has been brought in, direct
ly in front of the stands, so that
the spectators may have full view
of the finish.

Letter to the Editor
To the Editor:


am one. of group of citizens
who presented a petition to the
Town Council of Smyrna protest
ing the proposed removal of trees
and widening of the road on Com
merce Street. More than 80 per-
cent of the people living on West
Commerce Street are opposed to
this plan for so-called improvement
of the street and consider that it
would destroy property values for
all home owners affected.
However, we received no more
than a brush-off from Council, who
apparently thinks it represents a
few business interests only and dis
regards the welfare of the town as
whole. These short sighted bust
ness men have blocked the compile
tion of Glenwood Avenue, which
would relieve us of the intolerable
truck traffic, and now try to force
more destruction of our properties
by having our trees cut down and
the road widened, and all because
they think they will gain little
extra business from the through
traffic. Whereas, any intelligent
person knows that the through
traffic isn't stopping to spend any
money on Commerce Street.
What Council proposes to have
done on Commerce Street would be
of little benefit to anyone and
would do great harm to many. As
Stunning that there is some profit
gained by few persons from this
traffic, is that to be put ahead of
the welfare of all the rest of the
citizens? A town should be a
good place to live in, not merely a
place to make money.
1 would like to remind Council
that it is elected to represent all
the citizens and not a few selfish
interests. Smyrna would be bet
ter place to live in if the through
traffic were diverted to Glenwood
Avenue. Therefore, if Council is
to fulfill the duties it owes to the
town of Smyrna, it will stop oppos-
ing the completion of Glenwood
Avenue and cooperate with the
State Highway Department in or
der that that road may be cut
through to the highway as speedily
as possible.
