Just Like 1918

It probably gals the NBC-
TV press department that this
pooled broadcast was put on
television only by ABC-TV, IN
Martin Agronsky's "At Issue"
time, 9 pm. And it probably
surprises Mr.. Agronsky to know
that go seconds after the Ko-
rean war truce was signed :.
Douglas Edwards flashed the
word to millions The arml-
stice was signed at 9:O1 pm.
and Edwards went on the air
at 9:02h p.m.," the CBS-IV
press release says.
Mr.. Edwards probably got
the same gun-jumping news
service flash that led Mr..
Agronsky into believing he was
listening to and relaying a
recorded, delayed broadcast.
CBS-TV was first the way the
United Press was in 1918, only
by a considerably smaller mar
gin, Of course.
It seemed to one viewer that

ABC-Tv, Of course, was
aided here by fortunate mis-
fortune. It had sustaining
news and commentary pro-
grams in the schedule at ideal
times to cover the signing OF a
truce at 9 pm. on a Sunday.
The news and special-eventS
staffs were warned in advance
and they made the most OF
their opportunity.
The newsmen of the other
networks were doing the
same, but they did not get an
opportunity for more than
bulletins until some non-com-
mercial time turned up. 1t
unavoidably brings to mind
another recent event covered
by Tv. Nobody has forgotten

On the Air

The four televiSion networks
proved themselves alert a week
ago tonight in reporting the
signing of the Korean truce.
All of them, in their separate
ways told their viewers what
had happened, recounted the
events leading up to it and
provided a lot of expert opin-
ion on what it all meant.
Unable to do the one thing
television does best when COW
ering the news-show you a
picture of it happening-the
boys had to resort to visual
radio, but they did their best.
They now have leaned back to
do their Dragging about who
was first.
Du Mont, according to 1t,
"aired the first network pre-
pared, detailed program on
the war and its termination"
at 1890 pm. last Sunday,
NBC-TV, which likes to keep
it's face straight at least. is
calling its Commute version
of the same thing, also tele-
cast at 10:30, an exclusive
NBC feature"
NBC had to look to radio
for it's first" which occurred
while the networks line from
Korea was tapped by other
broadcasting companies in a
pooling arrangement" On this,

tor to give the world the

Old StOlUers Home
In Neav Location
On Whitehead ST.

The old Showers home, familiar
landmark at the corner of Southland
and Duval Street, has found new
location on Whitehead street next
to the Old Island Trading Post,
corner of Caroline and Whitehead
Streets. The moving of the 80
year old house in two sections was
the most spectacular feat not only
of the week, but for some years
past. The moving of some of the
old Army barracks to various
points in the city was a midget
operation by comparison.
Mrs. Jessie Porter Newton who
purchased the old home is still out
of town and could not be reached
for quotation on the exact pur-
chase price of the structure which
she bought from Rule Pitcher Sto-
wers and Amelia F. Pitcher, but
it was learned that the moving ope-
ration alone was in excess of a
few thousand, not one thousand
dollars per block as rumored,
The Showers house, q hipped-
roof structure with three divi-
sions was moved in TWO sections
by Burt Carnett and Miami
company. The distance ira
VeEsed was little over seven
blocks. During fhe period of
moving, light and telephone
wires had TO be temporarily sew
cred to allow passage of fhe roof
top. Special police detail was
needed to redirect traffic as the
house moved slowly on huge roll
ers back on SoUthard, down Si-
nonfon and via Caroline to its
present site.
Housemoving used to be quite
common in Key West, and many of
the old homes were bought on
barges all the way from Bahamas.
The Showers home was built
around 1865 and is over 80 years
old. The ravages of time show in
some of the underpinning, but the
frame structure is in surprisingly
good shape.
According to ]. Y. Porter w,
spokesman for Mrs. Newton, the
house is tentatively slated for re-
Mobilization as apartments. There
was also some talk of using the
old house as a market for Key
West products and art wares, but
Porter said that he knew nothing
of the rumor or of the actual set
tied plans.

Pastor

When all is said and done, how
ever. there is no finer word than
Pastor. and no higher work than
what he does. There simply is not
anywhere any institution except
the Christian church that has any
thing like the place and work OF
the pastor. An old-fashioned name
for this is the cure of souls" and
that never meant Just the cure
of sick souls, but also the care OF
souls to keep them from being
sick. Paul. when he was reviewing

startling and sensational events

49, Instead, Paul describes his
own day-to-day door-to-door work

as simply as possible the pastor
brings God into the lives OF his
people. and brings his people to
God. While the minister may have
a salary. as in most churches he
does. he can never be paid for

MORE FEATURES, TOO

These two features that mean high
shell-outs are only part of the Kings
crost story. Every Kingscrost seed you
plant has been bred to give you fast
starting corn-corn that takes full adj
vantage of your field fertility and the
growing weather to give you the best
possible crop each season. Deep roots;
long, broad, deep-green leaves; sturdy
stalks; good borer resistance-a1 these
are more of the balanced features that
help make Kingscrost one of the most
popular corns in your area.

Seed Corn in the area served by custom

lens in his community and he's always
on the spot ready to help you.
Francis says, ga lot of farmers have
stopped in this winter just to tell me that
their Kingscrost shelled out plenty of dry
grain. Believe me, I'm using these stories
to get other farmers to try Kingscrost.

DEEP KERNELS, SMALL COB

Because it's the amount of shelled corn
you get that really counts, that's where
Kingscrost pays off. Almost any custom
shelter will tell you that Kingscrost
usually shows good over-runs. That's to
be expected, of course, because Kings
crost has a long, slender cob and deep
kernels. You get maximum of grain,
minimum of cob.

No one man has more opportunity to
see and compare different brands of corn
than the custom corn shelter. He knows
that corns do differ in most important
way-in shell-out. Even after good
growing season, when cribs almost every
where are loaded with dry ears, the
custom shelter sees some farmers getting
a bigger dividend in grain.
