TeIeVision Coveraqe
OF Party Conventions
Next Year Studied
BY the Assoeioied Press

The question of televising the
1852 presidential nominating con-
ventions as a public service or
under commercial sponsorship is
being studied by network and ma
tional committee officials.
One informal meeting has been
held and the four television COM
panies have been asked to put
their ideas in writing. Whatever
policy is worked out for TV will
also apply to radio.
Party conventions have been
broadcast for years. Those in the
two nominating years since 1910
have been televised on limited
scale. Both times they have been
sustaining jobs-that is, without
sponsors on scenes from the hall
itself. SidelightS, such as special
interviews and commentaries from
studios backStage or in hotels,
have been sponsored.
High Cost Big Factor.
The networks say the cost Of
telecasting next years cor1ven-
tionS at Chicago will be too great
to bear without sponsors. A trade
publication said recently one net
work estimated it would cost So
million just in cancellations of
other sponsored programs, plus an
expense sum almost as great, to
cover both conventions.
Company officials say they want
to recapture some of this cost by
selling their TV coverage. They
say they don't necessarily want
to make a profit.
Democratic and Republican
National Committee officials are
froWning on sponsorship, but they
say they are willing to consider
any proposal the four chains may
agree on.
The Hatch Act forbids the po-
|litical parties themselves from
selling the TV or radio rights.
Committee officials may want a
say, however, in the type of
sponsor to be employed-if there
is a sponsorship agreement-but
neither side expects any big argu-
lment on this score
Single Sponsor Is Out.
Two matters appear to be agreed
on in event the convention pro-
Iceedings are covered on sponsored
programs.
One is there will be no single
sponsor for all four networks.
For one thing, the cost would be
prohibitive. Committee officials
also would not agree to one spon-
Sor buying the exclusive rights
and sending it only on one net
work, as is the case in some SPORT
ing events.
The other point agreed on is
that the televising will be a.
pooled job from the hall itself
Lack of space for cameras and
equipment would dictate this.

Recommend Change
In Duck Season

A recommended change in
Montana'S duck season and bag
limit and the setting of sea-
sons for sharptail and noun
tain grouse were the principal
business at a. meeting of the
Montana Fish and Game COM
miSsioners Monday.
The commission asked the
federal Fish and Wildlife SER
vice to make the duck season
for this state so consecutive
days beginning Oct. IL and
ending Nov. 80 with a seven
bird bag and possession limit.
Last year the duck season
was split into two periods and
the bag limit was five with the
possession limit 10. It is ex-
pected that the goose limit
will remain the same as last
year, with a five-bird daily bag
and possession limit.
Big Horn county will have a
seven day season, Sept. 1880,
on Sharntail grouse. The COM
mission also will permit hunt
ing of these birds during the
same period in the counties of
Daniels, Sheridan, Roosevelt,
McCone, Dawson, Garfield,
Prairie, WibauX, Rosebud, Gus
ter, Fallon, Treasure, Powder
River and Carter.
Sharptails may be hunted for
three days, Sept. 1925, in Cho-
teau, Judith Basin, Cascade,
Fergus, Petroleum, Wheatland,
Golden Valley, Musselshell, Hill
and Yellowstone counties.
For blue, ruffed and Frank
Inns grouse, the hunt is Sept.
1926 in the counties of Lin
coin, Flathead, Sanders, Min
eral, MiSsoula, Powell, Granite,
Madison, Lake Except the Flat
head Indian reServation), Ra-

Motorists Wdrned
About Child SafetY

The safety of many of Big
Horn county's children from
next week through next May
will depend on the good driv-
ing of the ,county'S motorists,
Mrs. Lura P. Strand, county
superintendent of schools point
ed out this week.
She reminded the motoring
public that the children riding
school buses have been pro-
tected by the state legislature,
which has enacted special laws
that apply to all highways OF
Montana and all vehicles on
these highways.
1t is unlawful for any vehicle
to pass a school bus while it is
loading Or unloading children
outside the city limits. All
school bus drivers have hand
operated signals on the left side
of their buses near the drivers
seat. These red signs have the
word STOP printed in large
white letters. The law requires
school. bus drivers to put out
these signs whenever they are
loading or unloading children
outside the city limits. Any
motorist who violates the law
by passing this sign is subject
to the penalties Of the law.
Many school buses will have
student patrols this fall. One
of the duties of the patrol will
be to check on motorists who
pass the bus illegally. Mrs.
Strand pointed out that the
law applies to vehicles ap-
preaching the school bus from
either direction. Some motorists
apparently believe, she said,
that the penalties apply only to
vehicles approaching the
school bus from the rear. How
ever the law clearly indicates
that the children are protected
from vehicles approaching from
either the front or the back of
the bus.
State highway patrol figures
show that school buses were
involved in % accidents on the
highways of Montana last year.
One, pupil was crippled for life
by a passing motorist who fail
ed to observe the stop on the
signal arm of a bus. In several
accidents, children narrowly es-
capped serious injury, and bus
drivers filed many complaints
that the average motorist did
not seem to recognize the
dangers involved or the re-
quirements of the law.
Some of the children riding
the buses this fall have Just
reached the age of six and are
starting school for the first
time. With no previous eXper-
fence in traffic, manv of them
will be crossing highways. They
will need the protection OF. a
careful and sympathetic mo-
toring public if they are to es
cape death or serious injury,
Mrs. Strand concluded.

New Crow Indian
Land Program
Now In Operation

l.. C. Lippert. superintendent
of the Crow reservation an
nounced this week that On June
20 the area director Bureau of
Indian Affairs approved a land
program adopted by the Grow
Tribal council on June 8.
The outstanding feature of
this program Mr.. Lippert said,
is that the Crow tribe is MAX
ing a positive attempt to retard
and eventually eliminate the
problem of ever-increasing null
tiple ownership of Indian TRUST
allotments, a process which has
made the administration OF
such lands not only difficult
but costly.
The tribe proposes to accom-
plish this objective under the
provisions aof. the Act of July
/, 1913, which authorized the
Secretary of the Interior, upon
request of the Crow Tribal
council, to sell complicated
heirship lands to the United
| States in trust for the Crow
tribe and to approve the sale
of lands so acquired by the
tribe to any Grow Indian, with
preference given to the indivi-
dual heirs of the deceased al
lottee with the largest inter-
] ests.
This program, to be known
as the aCroW Tribe Land En-
terprise," Superintendent Lip
pert added, will take over the
clerical and administrative de
tails involved in the leasing,
permitting and land adjust
ment transactions of tribal and
individual trust or restricted
lands under the jurisdiction of
| the Grow Indian agency, in
GLIDING all instruments issued
for the development of national
resources and for the collection
| of fees.
The Enterprise will be sup
ported by fees collected for the
services it renders. Lippert said
that on Sept. 5, 1851, the fol-
lowing schedule of fees will be-
come effective: s

Up and
DOUn
the Street
By-HeIen M. Peterson

Since your editor and our
former friend, Raymond w.
(for Wandering) Criswell, de
-cided to make the substitute ed
head of the complaint depart
ment this week we have but
one recourse, and that is to see
to it that there is enough to
complain about in the present
issue to keep him in hot water
all next week. .
Such a system has distinct
advantages. No one will ever
know whether the mistakes in
this issue were deliberate or
not.
We had intended to keep
RAYS heading, just to save the
boys in the back room a little
extra effort. However, after that
item last week, we decided we'd
90 back to our old original col
umn title.
Seriously though, up to the
date of this writing, we think
the readers of the HTH must
be pretty well satisfied with
the editorial staff. We haver:'t
heard a single grippe.
The summer recreation pro-
gram came to a close Sunday,
and we are of the opinion that
it was a very good thing Tor
Hardin boys and girls. We sin
cerely hope it can be continued
and are sure that even more Of
the local youngsters will take
part another year.
That brings us, however, to
at last-a complaint. 1T is one
which we did not care to
make publicly while the base
ball program was in progress,
since we had a couple of young
fry participating.
We refer-aS all our neigh
bors know-to the dust which
invaded everyone'S house in
our end of town any time the
wind was from the west. The
situation was at its worst when
the baseball field was dragged
early this summer, but it con-
tinued to annoy many unhappy
housewives in a lesser degree
all season.
We are fervently joined by
all our neighbors when we re-
quest the school board to see
if it will be possible to put
some grass seed and water on
this area as soon as possible.
We personally felt that the
cause was well worth the in
convenience, and we fully re-
alize that it. was impossible to
do anything about the field
and still have baseball games
there this summer.
However, the planting of
grass on the field will not only
improve the lot of nearby
housewives but will make the
field a. better and safer place
for our youngsters to play base
ball next summer.
