 Dear Lew and Winnie:
 That was a mighty nice letter you sent me - many thanks.
 It is literally true that I did not seek this position and would have been content to spend the next four years working exclusively on Alaska development projects, such as timber use e. g.. a timber use plant for Wrangell! As Governor, I still want to make industrial de- velopment my major objective and hope that all of us con work to- gether on it. In my opinion, con ditions are more favorable at pres ent than at any time during the 3a years have been in the North. We want to be sure we spare no effort in trying to get them started
 I hope to reach Alaska by March 15 and to see you there shortly thereafter.
 Best regards to you and the other people of Wrangell who are working so hard to restore the loss your community suffered through the fire and to go ahead from there You may call on me for any help I am able give in this un- dertaking

"BEST YET"-RCA's color
system. at the present stage of
development. is much the best
color television yet seen." This
is the verdica Of Jack Gould, the
radio-TV editor of the New York
Times. He was present this week
at the Princeton, N. j.. demon
stration of color television for
members of Representative
Charles A. Wolverton's House
Commerce Committee.
During the color presentation,
especially in a dance number.
some of the soft pastel shad-
ings were breathtaking in their
loveliness," Mr.. Gould reported.
On two 16-inch sets, the editor
said, the color was roughly COM
parable to that demonstrated
by RCA more than a year ago.
He added:
But a smaller set. with a
color tube Of about 14-inch size,
gave an image Of astonishingly
lifelike quality that seemed of
a standard conducive to public
acceptance Of color TV."
Chairman Wolverton is ready
to go right now.
"It's amazing" Mr.. Gould
quoted him as saying. Color
televiSion has reached the stage
of perfection where the public
should have its merits. It would
seem justified to put it into
production"
Whether he plans to tell the
FEC this or could convince the
commissioners Of 1t is another
matter. The commission knows
that this color TV was viewed
under laboratory conditions. RCA

On the Air

Arthur Godfrey has proved an
enigma to many who have tried
to analyze him. At frequent in
tervals some one turns up in
this magazine or that trying to
delve into the secrets of his
fabulous popularity and success.
They come up with a variety of
answers, too.
Sincerity which comes through
via microphone or TV camera
is part of it, of course. Also part
of it is a keen instinct for show
manship which often goes un-
noticed under the casual. easy
going exterior. Godfrey gets
away with his rule-breaking be-
cause he breaks rules with a
reason.
You could have seen a fair
sample of this yesterday morn
ing. The Godfrey CHS simulcast
was coming from Miami Beach
and Lu Ann Simms was sing
ing a song against backdrop of
palm tree and resort hotel. She
finished and Godfrey called to
her.
Come down here" he said,
"and you cameramen turn your
cameras around this way. Get
some of that surf. There's moth
ing pretty about the awnings on
that hotel. This is a picture,
with a girl, the beach and that
ocean. Now, Lu Ann, sing it
again the way it should have
been done in the first place."
The technicians had been
right, of course, by the rule
book. They had been photo
graphing Miss Simms with the
sun at their backs, it's light on
her face. BY the rule book you
don't aim a camera into the
morning sun and pose a singer
before the bright reflections
from the rolling ocean.
What happened was what the
technicians knew would happen.
The bright background domi-
mated and Miss Simms' face
went into darkness.
Godfrey, however, was more
right than the camera experts.
1t was much better Snowman
ship, much more effective tele-
vision done his way.
