Prizes on Radio Face Curb By the Commission The federal communications commission on Friday made rul ings on the get-rich-quick pro grams' over the radio and this ruling will be of wide spread in terest to almost every radio fan in this community, as well as in all parts of the country. The sta tion licensing agency said dis approvingly that "an almost in fanitive number" of these pro grams border on "illegal lotter ies or gift enterprises". So the commission announced a set of proposed new regulations aimed at curbing, if not elimi nating, many of the programs currently offering- fabulous cash, travel and merchandise gifts to lucky listeners. In essence, the rules s'ay there must be no more such give aways based in any way "upon lot or chance.' Nor can the win ners be required to (A) furnish any money or other thing of value (B); possesses the sponsored product or (C) be or have been listening or viewing the pro gram in question. The commission didn't say when the new clamp-down will become effective. But it said it will listen to interested parties up to Sept. 10. Privately, commission sources said the agency fears that the prize programs are throwing the national radio picture "out of fo cus," and leading the industry a way from "the broad basic pur poses of broadcas'ting." These sources said there have been complaints from some top flight comedians and other enter tainers that their g-ags or art are being lost to listeners hoping for complete housing, a house paint ing job or a free trip to Bermuda for two, all expenses paid. Still privately, the commission left no doubt that it regards the task of getting the give-away programs off the air as no easy undertaking. Actually, the springboard for FCC plung-e into the $100,000-a-week nationwide prize pool was a modest venture just across the Potomac river from commission headquarters here. What the commission did was give its blessing to an examiner's report on a program broadcast by station WARL in nearby Arling ton, Va., during most of last year. Entitled "Dollars for An swers," the program consisted of the periodical reading of a ques tion and the correct answer, fol lowed immediately by a tele phone call to a person selected at random from the telephone book. Moves Back From Missouri Farm Mr. and Mrs. Frank Svoboda and family, who have been en gaged in farming- near Marys ville. Missouri, have moved back to Plattsmouth and expect to make this their home for the present at least. They are locat ed in the former A. F. Knoflicek place on Maiden Lane until they secure a larger farm. One of the reasons for the return to Ne braska was the condition cf the health of the aged father of Mr. Svoboda, who has been at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Louis Kostka in Omaha but who will be brought to this city later. REPORTS LOTS OF RAIN Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Hild of west of Mynard, were in Plattsmouth Friday to look after some mat ters of business and calling on the relatives and friends. Mr. Hild reports the rain of the past week as very heavy in his local ity and the fields as being very wet. Sell It Thru Journal Want Ads.
