WHAT'S IN A NAME :?

Secretary Oveta Culp Hobby, of the new, formid- able-sounding Department of Health, Education and Welfare has said that she is opposed to socaized med cine, and that President Eisenhower agrees with this view.
 It is her own belief, Mrs. Hobby says, that all of us can get proper medical attention by expanding and perfectng the system of volunteer profit private ly-operated heath-nsurance programs.
 This we think, is good news even though would not be to allowing the healthinsurance programs to make dollar or two We hope the Secretary means what think she means :. but that name, Department of Health, Education and Welfare still gives us tWinge If the Russians were ever to take us over-theyd love it.

Sub Crosses Atlantic
 Submerged All the Way

PORTSMOUTH, England, R- A British submarine reached Eng land today after a 2,5OO-mile trip from Bermuda-made all the way under water. It evidently took about two weeks.
 The trip was only about half as long as the 5,200-mile under water run by the US. submarine Pickerel in 1850. That trip was from Hong Kong to Pearl Harbor in 21 days.
 Both the American and British submarines were equipped with snorkel apparatus, breathing tube extending to the surface. This apparatus was developed by the Germans during World War II, from a Dutch idea.
 The British submarine was the Andrew, carrying a crew of 60.
 James Fighting Ships listed the submerged speed of subs in the Andrews class as eight knots.

Alaska's Airline Routes Modified
 To Conform With Actual Operations

WASHINGTON, R- The Civil Aeronautics Board modified the certified routes of airlines in AL aska yesterday to conform with actual patterns of operation"
 The board also modified the "bush" airmail routes from Fair banks.
 The two cases were decided in March and January, respectively, but were withheld until their ap- proval by the White House last week.
 In the overall Alaska route notifications case, the board ac- cepted for the most part a recom- mendation of Examiner F. Merit Ruhlen last August.
 Ruhlen said his report consoli- dated routes there as much as pos sible, eliminated duplicating ser vices and eliminated authoriza- tions to serve at those points to which the authority had never been exercised. The airlines in-
The Nome nugget., 1953-06-15

volved were Alaska, Byers, Wien Alaska and Pacific Northern.
 In the only issues in which it differed from the examiners find ings, the board ruled that:
 l. Stebbins and Kako Landing warrant service by Alaska Air lines-Stebbin between Hamilton and St. Michael on the Bethel-Un- alakleet run, and Kako Landing between Paimiut Paimute) and Russian Mission on the McGrath- Fortuna Ledge route.
 2. Savoonga should be retained for non-mail service by Alaska Airlines because of defense needs there.
 3. Alaska's authority to serve Mckinley National Park between Summit and Nenana on the An chorage : Fairbanks route should be extended, even though the air line has not exercised that author ity.
 4. Wien's authority to serve Ig- loo between Fairbanks and Nome should be eliminated because the Igloo postoffice has been closed.
 The Board said the examiner was correct in deleting the Fair banks-Medra-McGrath route from Alaska's certificate, and added:
 Our decision does not work a basic transformation in the route system of Alaska Airlines.
 'The fact that our decision com pines the four separate certificates for Alaskan air transportation hitherto held by Alaska Airlines and replaces them with a single certificate constitutes merely a formal change in that carriers operating authority
 ''The carrier will continue to serve Fairbanks, Anchorage, Nome, McGrath, Kotzebue, King Salmon Gin lieu of NakneD, Plati- mum, Bethel and Unalakleet.
 Its mail routes, of much great CT importance than those over which only persons and property may be carried, remain substan- tially unchanged"

VISITORS TO NOME


 The Nome Visitors Association reports the arrival and departure via Wien Airlines last Friday, June 12, of Miss Nan l.. Dalziel and Miss Alice Larter, both young ladies of San Francisco. This is their first visit to Nome and they expressed much pleasure in being here. While out on Anvil Mountain with Mrs. Roosevelt GrunoW of Hazel Park, Mich, all enjoyed gathering numerous varieties of colorful wild flowers.
 On Saturday, MT. and Mrs. Rod Monson with MT. and Mrs. Donald Foiles, both couples of Fairbanks, spent, as all stated, very enjoy able and interesting afternoon in and about Nome. Others regis tered at the IVA reception room were Elder L. s. Michaux and Elder James McCorkle of Wash ington, DC. Elder Michaux is the president of the Gospel Associa- ton. With them, as the guest of Elder MichauX, was Dr. Louis R. Patmont of Witter Spring, Calf.
 Several visitors were highly pleased Sunday afternoon with the early-day pictorial scenes of Nome displayed on the walls of the WAS reception office. MT. and Mrs. Arch Kinsey and their daughter Jean, of Stayton, Ore gon, gathered flowers. Jean and her friend, Miss Jean Schriever, of Molalla, Oregon, kept busy with flower photography. Miss Ruth Bammel, who has been teaching school the past term in Anealchek, is returning to her home in Bay City, Michigan. She LOO was QellSnl6Q LO De III NOIQe.

On the Air

The White House and the TV
networks, according to report.
still haven't come up with a
suitable television formal for
President Eisenhower. Televis-
ing his regular weekly press con-
ferences is not considered the
answer, for a number of reasons.
One of these is that the Pres
ident often speaks off the record
to fill in background for re-
porters. When he speaks on the
record, he is never quoted di-
rectly without his specific per-
mission. The microphones would
quote him directly then and
there, on or off the record.
Another fact standing in op-
position to the televised presi-
Dental press conference is that
some questions and answers
would only confuse by being out
of context. Replies to many re-
porters' queries make sense only
as part of more complete subse-
quent stories written for news
paper or newscaSt.
There are some physical fac
tors, too. One of these is the
time problem. Traditionally, the
President alternates between
morning and afternoon press
conferences. to give afternoon
and morning newspapers equal
chances at first crack at the
news. This sort of thing con-
fuses television networks. If a
program is on once a week, it
has to be on at the same time
every week.
Another problem is posed by
the TV equipment. Add a few
television cameras and crews to
the reporters and newsreel cam
eraS already on hand and these
press conferences will have to
repair to Griffith Stadium. With
the baseball season coming, that
may not always be available.
There is a suspicion, too, that
there might be some complaints
that the television networks do
not have an inherent right to
pick the brains of reporters
hired by news services and
newspapers. So it is probable
that any Eisenhower TV appear
ances will have to be done ex-
pressly for television, and the
format is being sought.
If the White House and the
networks do not object to a sug.
gestion from an outsider, the
formula is right there under
their noses. It is right there
under NBC-TV's nose, at any
rate. It is in a program called
"Ask Washington" on which a
panel of newscasters supplies
the answers to viewers questions
about Government affairs.
A paraphase of that, with the
President in place of the panel,
would simply solve the problem
of keeping Gen. Eisenhower in
touch with the people via televi-
sion

Answer Is Easy to Problem
IOf TeIevising President
BY Harry Macarthur

| PROGRESS REPORT The
week is only at it's mid-point,
but already it has seen q couple
of long strides forward in televi-
sion.
One, taken by WTOP-TV, may
revolutionize programming. The
boys at WTOP-TV have dis
covered what may turn out to
be the ideal television program.
They simply take a camera out
on the roof of the studio during
the new Bill Jenkins morning
session and show frequent views
of the construction work on the
new WTOP building.
This has a number of merits
as a TV show. It has drama and
suspense: Will that man reach
too far for that rivet and fall of
the girder? It has a ready-made
audience. The second or third
oldest profession in the world is
that Of sidewalk superintendent,
as you can see for yourself simply
by starting to dig a hole in a
vacant lot. Here again, the tele-
vision view is better than the
ringSide view. The Zoomar lens
can take you right up into the
Steelwork.
Best of all, there are no actor
problems. There are no tempera-
ments to cope with, no talent
fees to pay. Some of the more
impressed around WTOP think
this may some day replace pro-
grams altogether.
The other advance this week
is in the technical field. A firm
out in Cincinnati has put on
the market a gadget heretofore
mentioned only in stories about
ingenious inventors. It is a de-
vice called "Blab-Oh," which
enables the viewer to cut of
television commercials he con-
siders annoying with q flick OF
the finger. without moving from
his easy chair. The television
sound goes of. the picture stays
on"
The "Blab-Oh" manufacturers
are not opposed to commercials
as such. After all, they have to
advertise these things to sell
them. They are quick to point
out that their boon to mankind
will free the viewer from the ir-
ritation Of commercials he con-
siders annoying, and allow him
to select only those commercial
messages of interest to him."
They also expect it to be used
Ito silence the TV set during
phone calls, conversations, ETC..
and. to serve as a party
gag or conversation piece" It's
going to be a wonderful irony
when all the early "Blab-Of"
customers use the gadget to
black out the "Blab-Off" COM
mercial, keeping all knowledge
Of 1t from visitors who might be
prospective customers.
