Television In Review

By ROBERT MUSEL NEW YORK UPI—Television is acutely aware of charges that the presence of television cameras can start a race outbreak or heat up one already underway. And William R. McAndrew, president of NBC news, offered the assurance today that the networks are constantly on guard against efforts to use them by publicity seekers although it is often difficult to separate the staged incident from the genuine. McAndrew was not speaking about the present series of major riots across the nation. These explosions, incidentally, have been covered thoroughly, and often brilliantly by the cameras; they did not erupt

from a desire for nationwide screen time. He was referring to occasional accusations over the past year or so that television was distorting the racial picture by giving undue prominence to small disturbances simply because they were more visually dramatic than other stories perhaps of greater significance. McAndrew rejects this view. He says it is wrong to expect visual television to use the same yardstick of news value as printed newspapers. “The charge has been that we helped cause these earlier disturbances,” McAndrew said.in an interview. “No one has yet been able to relate the fact we covered a riot to the outbreak of any other disturbance elsewhere. We do know some demonstrations in the South were deliberately staged in time for film to catch the planes north to make the nationwide evening programs.

“But the same kind of thing applies to newspapers. It’s a problem, a constant problem, and we try to guard against it. Besides we do not depend on film alone. There are always words behind the pictures and these keep the story in balance.” McAndrew suggested the possibility the cameras might provoke a few show-offs had to be balanced against their abiltiy to show viewers what it is like in the middle of a riot or in the Demilitarized Zone in Vietnam or how a politician acts in an uncomfortable situation. “There was a time in television news when we thought only of the picture,” McAndrew said. “But that led to the banal result of endless bathing beauty contests and ice skaters leaping over barrels at Grosingers. We have a cardinal rule that we don’t drop a story simply because we don’t have pictures.”

State scholars to get grants INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indiana State Scholarship Commission sent renewal notifications Wednesday to about 1,600 Hoosier scholars who will reenroll this fall In Indiana colleges and universities. Mrs. Josephine Ferguson, executive secretary of the commission, said the total amount of funds granted to the students was $320,000. The same students, the first class of state scholarship winners, received $375,000 last year. The renewal awards ranged in value from honorary awards with no money up to awards of $800. More than half of the awards are honorary with 711 carrying actual cash grants. Earlier this year, the commission announced about 4,700 awards totaling $1,043,000 to students who will enter college for the first time this fall. The renewal awards were dependent upon financial need and maintenance of satisfactory academic standing.

Wall Street Chatter NEW YORK UPI —Bache & Co. Inc. says that the cheering economic news of recent days tends to underscore the validity of earlier forecasts of a business recovery. Thus, the investment firm foresees a continuation of the summer rally with better quality issues assuming a more important part of market leadership.

Thomson & McKinnon maintains the most significant single characteristic” of the current market is its ability to shrug off adverse news. The firm says this tendency suggests that investors are looking forward rather than backward, and that the view ahead continues to improve.

Congress opens rioting inquiry WASHINGTON UPI _ Sen. James O. Eastland, conducting the first major congressional inquiry into this summer’s racial violence, said today the big city riots fall into the traditional Communist pattern. Eastland, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said “All these riots follow the same pattern. They follow the tactics used by the Communist party all over the world.” The Mississippi Democrat made the assessment as the judiciary committee moved into its second day of taking testimony from police officials whose cities have experienced or been threatened with racial disorder. Eastland declined to comment on FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover’s report to President Johnson’s antiriot commission that no trace of a conspiracy has been found in the riots. The House Committee on UnAmerican Activities, (HU AC) however, announced it would hold its own full-scale hearings on whether subversive groups organized the big city violence. Chairman Edwin E. Willis, D- | La., said Wednesday that staff j investigations “clearly indicated that certain subversive ele- ; ments have been involved in i some of these riots and in the creation of racial unrest generally.” He said the committee voted to have a five-man subcommittee look into “evidence of or- | ganized subversion precipitating, exploiting and prolonging the riots.” High administration officials told the President’s commission Wednesday that outsiders were seen in riot-torn cities this summer shortly before the outbreak of violence. The annual Roberts reunion will be held at the Manhattan Church on August 13, at 12:30.
