ASHEVILLE. N. c., June 1.
Among II resolutions the
delegates of the General Fed
Grafton Of Women's Clubs
Convention will begin voting
on tomorrow is one urging
continuance Of free television.
It urges enactment Of con-
gressional legislation ito de-
clare unlawful the transmits
sion of television programs in
any manner which prevents
home reception free Of charge" "
Two Sides
The charge that a member
of the television industry had
sought to influence delegates
minds when they vote on the
resolution tomorrow climaxed
an early morning breakfast
session at which two speakers
representing both sides Of the
question, "Television--Free-or
Fee?" presented their views.
Ted Leitzell, director Of pub
lie relations for the Zenith
Radio Corp. presented the
argument for subscription tele-
vision, and Murray Martin,
substituting for Richard S.
Salant. vice president Of the
Columbia Broadcasting Sys-
TEN, who was prevented from
being present by a minor plane
mishap yesterday, spoke in
favor of retaining free tele-
vision.
The so-called campaign to
influence the delegates votes
was Unexpectedly brought out
into the open when Mrs.
Horace B. Richie of Athens.
Ga, policy committee chair
man, announced at the break
fasts' conclusion that when
ever the federation has a con-
troversial issue to act on. we
have a great deal Of pressure
brought on us in varying de-
grees."
Then turning to Mr.. Leitzell
| and Mr.. Martin. she asked
them for the answer to ques-
ton which she said "the gen.
eral federation has a right TO
know"

Mr.. Leitzell, speaking for the
Zenith Corp. said that his
firm had four representatives,
including himself, in Asheville
for the last three weeks.
Miss Hennock Present
One of them he introduced
as Miss Frieda Hennock, for
mer Federal Communications
Commissioner, whom he said
coined our staff 10 years ago."
Miss Hennock seized the OPP
portunity to tell the delegates
that i've worked for seven
years to get you the 400 tele-
vision stations that now lie
idle because of the CBS-NBC-
ABC monopoly"
Mr.. Leitzell explained his

The final date for raising All
Club funds for building and furn-
ishing three new cottages at
Camp Barnes has been extended
from March l to April 1, reports
Wayne Bath. acting state All
Club leader.
F'our-Hers from the three Del

raise $4,000 for each of the cot
tages in conjunction with a fund
drive for II new cottages at the
camp by the Delaware Associa-

sociation operates the camp for
under-privileged boys, Because
the 4-H'ers had used the cottages
in the past and will continue to
do so, they volunteered to raise
money for three of the cottages,
Bath said.
Each county is still an estimat-
