STRIKE REPORT

HONOLULU (P)-Hawaii's four
month sugar strike in 1858 caused
a drop in sugar cane production
but raised molasses production by
$500 tons over the 1857 figure
The Hawaiian Sugar Planters
Association explained that the
strike resulted in lowering the
purity of cane juices. Because the
Juices contained less sucrose, more
of the non-sucrose content was
available for processing into mo-
lasses,

Quiz Honest
AsItCou|dBe
DR.. Evans Says

NEW YORK, Oct. 16 (AP)-
lDr. Bergen Evans, the scholar
who thought up the questions
for television quiz show, "The
$64 900 Question" says reports
that the show was dishonest
astounded him "like it did most
Americans"
But, he adds, I'm reserving
Judgment. From my own
knowledge the producers were
all honorable men,"
DR.. Evans, a Northwestern
University professor, told a
newsman yesterday he thought
the show was as honest as it
could be-"
1.-THE shows producers had to
screen or test contestants to
find out the limit of their
knowledge" he said. "They
lcouldn't take their word that
they were experts on certain
Subjects"
DR.. Evans, here on a visit
indicated that knowledge OF
contestants weaknesses on GER
tain subjects did help the pro-
ducers.
They could sometimes elm
mate contestants by posing
Questions in the weak areas, he
said, but added:
Sometimes when the ratings
were down and they wanted tt

and "the needed steps will be
taken"
The industry problem S
brought about by disclosure of
the rigging of some television
quiz shows were very much in
the minds of those attending
the two-day conference.
Some of the views they ex-
pressed in spot interviews in
cluded the following:
Campbell ArnOux, WTAR,
Norfolk, Val think, baSical-
ly, self-regulation is absolutely
vital, or television will be
destroyed as we know it. don't
think I'VE need any additional
legislation. 1t would open
the door to control over all pro-
grams. What has happened is
already collecting its penalty
in loss of public confidence in
our programming. There
should be increased care and
surveillance over all programs.
The networks and individual
stations should produce their
own programs and not purchase
them from outside sources
Lawrence H. Rogers, WSAZ-
TV, Huntington, w. VAT
feel the most successful COM
mercial formula for station OPP
erations is contained in our
license-to operate in the pub
lie interest. I'm frankly
puzzled and concerned for any
legislation involving provisions
for the control of programs
