<•« —rt— —r~ WFK* Hunt Ordered For Van Doren

NEW YORK (UP!) — Television quiz-whiz Charles Van Doren today was accused of crass indifference in ducking a congressional subpena ordering him to face questioning about the rigging of the defunct quiz show “21.” Federal authorities were ordered to intensify their hunt for the 33-year-old winner of $129,000, as the long-time champion of “21,” and a $50,000 a year network contract. Rep. Stephen B. Derounian <RN. Y.), a member of the House subcommittee on legislative oversight that has been investigating the practices of certain television quiz shows, leveled the in[difference charge at Van Doren. ! “Friday night our committee issued a subpena for his (Van Dor|en's) appearance. . .He has evadled the subpena and thus far has avoided testifying of our committee members. Becomes Famous “Don’t Mr. Van Doren’s admirers deserve more than his crass indifference?” Derounian asked. Van Doren, who was catapulted to national prominence by his display of intellectual prowess duri ing his 1956-57 appearances on the: ' program, disappeared shortly after he sent a telegram to the committee stating his willingness to testify. In his telegram to the committee a copy of which Van Doren sent to United Press International the Columbia University English instructor said he had never been supplied with questions and answers in advance of a program, had never had any assistance in any form and had no knowledge of any aid provided to other contestants. Van Doren said in the telegram he had given this testimony under oath befffif the New York grand jury ahd-.Was willing to repeat it any RiHe to the House subcommittee. To Resume Hearings Subcommittee Chairman Oren Harris <D-Ark.) said he personally issued the subpena requiring Van Doren’s appearance but added that “Mr Van Doren has purposely avoided service.” “This con testant, whom we had not anticipated seerns. to have challenged the committee and the facts that have been developed,” Harris said. “We expect to have Mr. Van Doren and perhaps others” when the hearings resume on Nov. 2, Harris added. “In view of the facts and circumstances the committee feels the testimony of Van Doren is most important.” The committee’s efforts to subpena Van Doren indicated that agents of the U. S. marshal’s of-j fice here was searching for the ! son of Pulitzer Prize winner Mark! Van Doren.
