Board 10 Be Asked
For School N Sets as
Standard Equipment

Washingtons public school
system soon may make television
sets standard school equipment.
School officials plan to ask the
Board of Education to authorize
this step tomorrow.
Many schools already have one
or more TV receivers. but up to
now they have been bought, in
most cases. by arent-Teacher
Associations. None has been
bought with public funds.
The school board will be asked
tomorrow to authorize the use
of school funds to buy up to
three video sets per school.
Some equipment money is
available in the case of recently
built schools, so if the board acts
favorably some schools might get
new sets right away.
But Associate Supt. John M.
RieckS said there is no plan to
buy any great number of sets
any time soon, however. Sets for
older schools would have to be
provided for in a future school
appropriation, he pointed out.
AS OF last September, the city's
grade schools had lis television
sets. Twenty-Five of the 122
buildings, however, had none.
Associate Supt. Carl F. Hansen
says more have been bought by
individual schools since then.
The school system produces a
daily 15-minute television pro-
gram for use in classrooms.
Station WNBW donates the time
and facilities for. the programs.
The school board also had ap-
piled for authority from the
Federal Communications Com
mission to build and operate a
full-time educational television
station, but it has been unable
to obtain money from Congress
for this project. Another organ
ization. the Greater Washington
Educational Television Associa- =
tion, also is interested in OBJ
tanning use Of the city's educa-
tional TV channel and is ex-
pected to file its applications
with the FEC this spring.

Bishop Dun Calls for
Home Rule in District

The Right Rev. Angus Dun,
Episcopal Bishop of Washington,
last night called for home rule
In the District.
He spoke on a program over
WWDC sponsored by the Wash
ington Home Rule Committee.
MY fundamental attitude is
that only when people have the
power to deal with problems of
their community do they develop
responsibility toward them.
Bishop Dun said.
The Bishop emphasized he does
not believe Congress can meet
purely local problems adequately
in the Nations Capital. He cited
juvenile delinquency here as such
a problem.
Delinquency" he said. sis one
example Of q major problem in
our community life which can
best be dealt with by the people
concerned with it."
