F.C.C. To Curb
Prize Air Programs
WASHINGTON, </P)—The fed
eral communications commission
today announced sharp curbs on
radio prize programs.
The commission said that, effec
tive Oct. 1, it will invoke new
rules under which it will refuse
licenses or renewal of licenses to
broadcasters “following a policy
or practice” of advertising lotter
ies or “offering prizes dependent
in whole or in part upon lot or
chance.”
The action, regarded as reach
ing many cash and merchandise
give-away programs now on the
air, grows out of an investigation
in progress for more than a year.
The proposed regulation was
fought vigorously by most of the
radio industry, on grounds that
the FCC lacks authority to censor
program content.
The commission’s reply was
that it is empowered to forbid the
use of the air for promoting a lot
tery.

Lupescu Married

Carol and Elena whose romance

despite family objections and po
litical upheavals were married in
Rio de Janeiro in an “extremist”
civil ceremony in July, 1947, when
Elena was believed at the point of
death.
Herbert McClellan, Alaska Na
tive Service reindeer man from
Kotzebue passed through Nome to
day en route to Juneau, where his
son Chrales was killed yesterday
while working for the Juneau
Spruce Corp., in Juneau.
