Educational Video
Station Is Approved
By Commissioners

The Commissioners have ap-
proved a request to the Bureau
of the Budget for the construc-
ton and operation of an educa-
tional television station here,
Commissioner Renah F. Camalier
said last night.
An estimated $4,000 will be
needed to build and operate the
station in the first year.
Mr.. Camalier discussed the
project during the weekly RE
port to the People" broadcast
over Radio Station WWDC.
The city head said he con-
tinued to favor Board of Educa-
ton control over the station
Another proposal is for a CO.
operative control by area educa-
tional and cultural institutions
Mr.. Camalier said he was "very
much concerned" over the ap-
parent feeling in some Quarters
that School Supt. Hobart M.
Corning might not cooperate
with them.
II believe we can work it out
without any trouble" he said.
The Commissioner also said he
favored tighter police control
over obscene films. OF the March
% teen-age drinking, gambling
and lewd movie party at the
Don Pallini Dance Studio. re-
portedly promoted by high
school fraternity, he said:
Il think it was reprehensible
conduct on the part Of those
connected with it"
Mr.. Camalier said he could see
no good coming from school fra
ternities or sororities at that
age.
If parents would guide the
young people in their thinking,
he added, they would not have
recourse to such sources Of
amusement-so called" as the
party raided by police.

declined to be specific.
Discrepancies Cited.
In the Cooperman case, Miami
deputies quote Gray as saying:
He was robbing a liquor store
at First street and Florida ave-
nue. NV. on August 4, 1851.
Il throwed my gun on this
guy. told him to hands up. So
I guess I got around $400 from
behind the counter. He had just
got through counting it. He
started a fight and shot him"
The facts: Mr.. Cooperman
ran from his store. carrying a
money bag containing about $40
or $50 when the bandit flashed
his gun. He had gone about IS
feet from the entrance when the
gunman pumped about five shots
into him. No money was taken.
Wrong on Details.
In the Soriano Staying, depu-
ties quoted Gray as saying:
"She told me she had a sailor
friend. So when she told me that
I hit her over the head with a
board about two feet long. I drug
her back into an alley among
some garbage cans"
Miss Soriano, according to the
coroner'S verdict, was strangled
in an areaway beside her home,
1907 w street NV. on Oc-
tober 81.
Gray did not refer to her by
any name except Rosa" the
deputy sheriff in Miami said.
Gray and a companion, Frank
Walcovich, 26, were arrested jan

New Standards Test.
After this report, the Bureau
OF Standards tested AD-X2
further, and this time concluded
that the chemical was slightly
harmful to batteries operating
under normal conditions.
The Standards Bureau con-
firmed some of M.I.T.'s findings,
rejected some. and concluded
that some were irrelevant be-
cause they were made under cir

agencies as the National Bureau
Of Standards and the Coast and

"Given these circumstances
we believe that the entire mat

be fully and publicly investi-
gated-the administrative as

mittees of Congress, and the
technical aspects by a committee

tional Academy Of Sciences.
Nothing short of complete
public airing of the facts and
issues can lead to decisions
which will repair the grave dam

titled to know whether it can
continue to rely on the objectiv-

The bureau reported in 1851
that battery additives, without
exception, are useless and a few
are even harmful under normal
conditions of battery use.
DR.. Ritchie appealed to the
Senate Small Business Commit

hated to get into public con-
troversy, but would undertake
the tests at it's own expense in

by Prof. Harold c. Weber, re-
ported eight findings of fact
about the effect of AD-X2 in bat

it has been kept out of party
