50 Sectional Champs to Vie

For Crack at

By RICHARD LEWIS Approximately 50 sectional champions in the Indianapolis Times-City Marbles Tournament will compete in the semi-finals at 10 a. m. Saturday at four district tournaments. These 50 winners have come up out of a starting field of 5000 Indianapolis boys and girls who played marbles In the tourney at public and parochial schools, community centers and churches. The tournament commi®*tee has ruled that all games must

They discussed one protest arising out of a game in which a latecomer won a sectional championship and decided by a vote of four to one to allow protest. The type used will be

On some of the slips will be written the word “bye.” This means that the boy drawing {the slip marked “bye” does not play in the first round. He waits until the first round is over and- then plays one of the winners. In a sense, the boy who draws a bye has the advantage because he automatiically is passed to the second round. {On the other hand, he has a disadvantage because he has not “warmed up.” In standard tournament single eliminations, the advantage and the |disadvantage cancel each other out, so that everyone has a fair chance.

The attention of the radio industry this week has been focused on the annual convention of the National Association of Broadcasters in St. Louis. Developments so far have been: 1. Resignation of three prominent Mutual stockholders, because of the association's opposition to the Federal Communication Commission’s order restricting networks and making other operating changes. 2. An attack against the “ASCAP tiger” by Sydney M. Kaye, vice president and general counsel for Broadcast Music, Inc., the organization set up by the broadcasters to furnish music following severing of relations four months ago with ASCAP. 3. The announcement by Mark Ethridge, former NAB president, of his intention to resign as director {of a Governmental survey of the | radio industry. Mr. Ethridge, general manager of Station WHAS, Ky., said he would quit

by President Roosevelt because of the FCC anti-monopoly report. Resigning Mutual stockholders are the Bamberger Broadcasting Co., operators of WOR, Newark, Station WGN, Chicago, and the Don Lee Network, which operates a string of

Mutual moguls also have been nettled because of NAR criticism of Mutual’s recent action in signing up with ASCAP thus breaking the solid front of broadcasters in the “music war.” » » »

According to the United Press, Mr. Kaye spoke as follows on the ASCAP situation: “Some people recently have treated the ASCAP tiger as though it were a pussy cat. I'm not fooled. The tiger is purring only because it pays to purr. If we ever lay down BMI as a weapon we will soon find out that the tiger still has its claws.” Carl Haverlin, in charge of BMI station relations accused ASCAP of charging that the networks owned and controlled BMI when the truth was the networks own only 18 per cent of the BMI stock and independent stations 82 per cent. » = ¥ Meanwhile the broadcasters kept an ear cocked toward Washington

where Senator Burton K. Wheeler (D. Mont.) was quoted as being

ST. LOUIS, May 15 (U. P). Prospects of peace between the National Association of Broadcasters and the Federal Communications Commission appeared dim today as result of repeated and bitter attacks upon the Commission’s ruling regarding radio networks. The NAB’s annual convention went into its final phases today with the rift between the NAB and the FCC widened still further as the result of accusations by Commission

Chairman James Lawrence Fly that he was prevented from replying on the convention floor to an attack by Mark Ethridge, general manager of Station WHAS, Louisville, and a resolution urging “prompt and favorable” consideration to a resolution of Senator Wallace H. White (R. Me.) calling for a Senatorial inquiry into the FCC. Relations between the Mutual

“alarmed and worried” at the FCC report which claimed that 85 per cent of the nation’s night-time] radio power was affiliated with the National and Columbia Broadcast-| ing networks. Senator Wheeler, whose commit- | tee passes on legislation Si the FCC, said he had no byes § now on the agency’s proposed regu- | lations which under one interpreta. tion would require NBC to dispose | of one of its networks and cause other drastic changes Vroug hes the industry. = = ” | Commenting on withdrawal of) Mutual stockholders from the NAB, Alfred J. McCosker, MBS president said: “The NAB is no longersrepresentative of the entire industry.” He said Mutual would not be represented on the NAB board of direc-

TELLS HOW INDIANA STONE FIRMS ‘LOST’

CHICAGO, May 15 (U. P.).—William R. Goss, Chicago contractor, testified today that Indiana stone companies, who originally held jobbing contracts for a Chicago area project, were partially “squeezed

out” by Chicago stone firms ana unions, and a trade council. Testifying in the Government's anti-trust trial of 17 companies, unions and individuals, Mr. Goss | said that work on one of his con | struction contracts was delayed for two months while Chicago stonemen conspired against Indiana companies. He said he asked intercession of the Chicago Building and Trades Council on June 3, 1939, in an effort to get work underway. He testified that he was told Chicago stone craftsmen would not work unless the stone was fabricated in the Chicago area. A compromise was reached July 12 by which Indiana and Chicago firms would divide the contract, he said.

monopoly ruling, has also signed an agreement with ASCAP while CBS and NBC have continued to boycott the music publishers. NBC and CBS pledged continued support to Broadcast Music, Inc, ASCAP’s rival, and 43 MBS affiliated stations, organized as the Mutual Affiliates Association with S. A. Cis ler of Louisville, as chairman, refused to support either the FCC ruling or Mutual's agreement with ASCAP, The NAB resolution followed a series of sharp exchanges between NAB leaders and Mr, Fly. After an address before the convention in which Mr. Fly defended the FCC report, NAB President Neville Miller delivered a stinging extemporaneous reply. These developments virtually submerged the scheduled activities of the convention. However, A. H. Morton, vice president of NBC in charge of television, told the convention last night that 7000 home television receivers are in use throughout the United States.
