Army officials said the BARC was designed to replace the reliable but smaller DUKW, but it would seem to have as much chance as quiz shows taking the place of cowboy shows on television.

ST Nev.4 ,1959 fcyfafrom At a session running late Into the night, the probers turned from rigging to sneak plugging of one business on sponsor's program.

Free spending Max Hess, department store owner from Allen town, told of forking over $15,000 to get two mentions of his firm on the "$64,000 Question" by placing a store employe on the show as a contestant. Subcommittee Counsel Robert W. Lishman said the Hess Inqury would focus on a whole new aspect of TV manpulations. He defined this as the payment of large sums by indvldualg and companies for commercial plugs on TV time bought by another firm. that "maybe the attorney general will look into this." DISCREPANCIES 4 Martin Revson told the subcom mittee: "I neither directed or sug- gested that any contestant be removed from the show by giving him a hard question." Abrams said his affidarif that if a contestant captured the public fancy, it was the consensus that he should continue.

"If he was dull, we would sug gest to the producer that it would be desirable that the contestant not continue in the future," Abrams added. Abrams said he technique for "controlling the destiny" of a con testant was to ask real braintwis-ters or easy questions, based on what the producers had learned in screening candidates for the "$64,000 Question" and "$64,000 Challenge." Accounts of rigging along those general lines had been related Tuesday by Steven R. Carlin and Mert Koplin, two of the producers who created the shows that were, pulled off the air last year when word got around that popular network quiz contests were fixed. The House inquiry had reverbe rations at the White House. President Eisenhower told his news conference no one would be satisfied until what he termed the whole mess is cleaned up.

Eisenhower said he shares what he called "the American general reaction of almost bewilderment that people could coaspire to con fuse and deceive the American people." He said he directed the Justice Department sometime ago to find out whether any laws were violated and whether new laws should be recommended. He said the de partment will have its findings be fore the year's end and that mean while the Federal Trade Commis sion may have some function in correcting the situation. "Everybody was astonished and almost dismayed," Eisenhower said "when they heard about it and I think everybody from the basic industry right on down to producers, performers, and actors and the public itself, nobody will be satisfied until this whole mess is cleaned up." Referring to the reaction in 1919 to disclosure that "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and other Chicago White Sox baseball players had con spired, to throw the World Series, Eisenhower said: "It is like an old story you know of Joe Jackson in the 1919s when they said, 'Say it ain't so, I think that is the way Americans feel about it." At the House subcommittee hearing, Derounian also told advertising executive James D. Webb that his testimony was at sharp variance with previous statements that the Revlon firm knew the shows were controlled. Webb is president of the C.

LaRoche advertising agency, which represented Revlon on the quiz show accounts. Webb sec onded Revson's contention that Revlon had no idea anything was amiss. As for himself, Webb said. "It never entered my mind t' at these were anything but straightforward up and up contests." Derounian called this "whitewashing the sponsor" and told Webb: "We'll have some action on this, I assure you." Noting that LaRoche has i $210,000 a year account with Rev-Ion, Derounian. said: "I can, understand your concern for that $240,000 account.

Edwin Holsberry, has been elected recording secretary of the Florida Association of Future Teachers, which concluded its state convention over the week Ar AvffJ I ing any word that she had been rehearsed for her TV contest with young Eddie Hodges. Patty and Eddie, who sings in "The Music Man." tied at the $64,000 peak of their match. 2.

Howard Felsher, former pro ducer of "Tic Tac Dough." said in secret testimony also made public Wednesday that a tense duel be tween Martin Dowd, a salesman from New Jersey, and Army Capt. Michael O'Rourke was also rigged. Dowd defeated O'Rourke, who nevertheless received $108,000 for long series or appearances. Dowd, who collected $23,500, said he'd been given all the questions and answers. Felsher said notn men were coached.

"Tic Tac Dough," like the defunct "Twenty-One" on which confessed cheater Charles Van Doren won $129,000, were National Broadcasting Co. features. The "$64,000" programs appeared on the Columbia Broadcasting System network. 3. Albert Freedman, the producer who fed Van Doren the right answers on "Twenty-One," prom ised to return from Mexico if needed for further testimony.

Freedman also had testified in private a few weeks ago. At the! time he did not disclose that Van: Doren had been tutored. He did emphatically deny seeking a loan from Van Doren when the former Columbia professor was on the program. Martin n's brother, Charles, president of the Revlon, testified that he was "absolutely flabbergasted" to hear of the rigging of the program his firm spon sored. In November 1958, he said, Rev lon decided to cancel its contract for the "$64,000" Challenge be cause of unfavorable publicity.

The settlement terminating the contract with the producing organ ization, Charles Revson said, provided for payment of $90,000 each the cosponsors, Revlon and the Lorillard Co. and $75,000 by CBS. Webb, the advertising man, gave the same picture as Martin Revson of weekly meetings attended sponsors, producers arid agency men. As Revson put it, they covered the minutest details the shows' staging, its lighting, its master of ceremonies. They surely discussed contest ants as well, Martin Revson said, but only as to types.

Never, he insisted, did the sponsors demand that one contestant be ditched, another retained. Entertainment Productions he said, and its principals Harry Fleischman, Carlin and Koplin owned the show. EPI, he went on, had the last word on contestants. And Fleischman, he said, made it clear that if Revlon didn't want to retain it, another sponsor could be found with no trouble. Revson stuck to his version when the subcommittee counsel, Robert W.

Lishman, read a memo from one of the weekly gatherings that said one contestant "will be disposed of this week, one way or another." Revson said that meant the con testant "might decide to take his money and leave." Recalled as a witness after Webb testified, Martin Revson said he figured Carlin and Koplin had conspired against him. As for Abrams, the advertising aide, he said: "If he has more knowledge than I do, it is because he had more contact with the producers than I had." Revson, a slender dark-haired man who kept his stock in Revlon but quit as Revlon'a executive vice president this year, said he I now invests in industry ana real estate. Rioting Continues Panama (CONTINUED MOM FAOE ONE) acts executed at certain moments by the police of the Canal Zone and by the military forces which came to reinforce The note said it was hoped the Canal Zone police and troops would "act in the future with greater deliberation and prudence to avoid a repetition of the occurrences that we all regret." Panama -was put off limits to Americans living in the Canal Zone after, the trouble. Panamani an and U.S. troops faced each oth er along the Canal Zone boundary line.

Both were ordered into posi tion to keep demonstrators from moving into the zone. Panamanian nationalists 'in re cent years have been demanding that Panama establish sovereignty over' the Canal Zone. The tone, 500 square miles of territory, was put under U.S. control in perpetuity after the United States helped Panama win Its independence from Colombia. 1 i And after the necessary thingj are transported the Corps also provides field and depot maintenance and supply support for all U.

They belonged to the 394th Transportation Battalion (Terminal), Actually, name of the fall maneuvers was given as LOTS, which means Logistical-Over-The-Shore, and that's just what it was LOTS of goings-on. Fast jet planea loomed overhead, sharing the skyways with working helicopters, during the demonstration Wednesday.

She was asked if Carlin ever told her directly that the sponsor had requested a particular out come to a match." She replied: "Yes.

Often I would say 'Why do it this way?" Mr Carlin would say that it was not his wish, but the sponsor wanted it that way." Goodwin: "By sponsor, he meant primarily Revlon?" Miss Bernstem: "Yes. I was given to understand that we had little or no interference from the Lorillard people." The P. Lorillard Tobacco Co. was cosponsor of the "Challenge show. Miss Bernstein said that to the best of her ability the instructions were followed.

She added that in about 80 per cent of the cases where controls were used, they were effective. Miss Bernstein testified that on occasion she would give contestants In advance questions almost identical to those used on the show. She insisted, however, that this occurred about 20 per, cent of the time and said that some shows were not tampered with at all. DISBELIEF Martin Revson's denials that his firm knew at the time that the show was rigged brought expressions of disbelief and talk of possible perjury prosecution from two members of the subcommittee. Goot'win said the affidavit from Miss Bernstein was obtained on Oct.

5. Asked why the advance ques tion technique was used in some cases, Miss Bernstein said: "Eith er the contestant was very nervous or the sponsor had requested a particular outcome of a match." Miss Bernstein, who has refused to talk in public of what she knew jbout rigging, said in the statement she surmised such controls were prevalent in all TV quiz i "Controls are virtually essential to a good dramatic production," she said. Miss Bernstein said it was safe to assume that everyone connected with the programs, including the networks, was aware of the custom. But in the case of the "$64,000 Challenge," she said, she could not say specifically that the CBS network knew of the practice. The program's device of pur portedly taking questions from a bank vault was pnony, miss Bern stein said.

She added that she her self had a key to the safe "and I and my assistant would go in to get the questions." Charles Revson said under ques tioning he now understood the "$64,000 Question" was rigged while Louis G. Cowan, its originator, still owned the production iirm. BEAD OF CBS Cowan is present head of the CBS television network. He has maintained there was no rigging while he was associated with the show in 1955. Charles Revson told the sub committee that he never at meet ings with the show producers or elsewhere expressed to them the hope that some particular contest ant would win or be eliminated.

Asked why he had not acted more vigorously when reports of quis show rigging began to circulate and finally to be printed in 1957 and 1958, Revson said, "if 1 had ever had a report I could hang my hat on, I would have done something." He said he thinks the television industry itself "could do a great deal to police itself and it is now well aware" of the situation Rep. John B. Bennett (R-Mich), his voice tinged with sarcasm, asked Charles Revson if he were ss concerned over the rigging charges as he professed why he hadn't taken a hand to get to the bottom of the alleeations. The Revlon president replied that when the charges first arose he asked the cosmetic firm at torney to investigate. He said a contestant had said he was given the same question on the show that he had been asked in a pre-show screening.

The attorney reported back, Revson said, that the show's producers had assured him the charge. was the result of a "sheer accident." "I was satisfied with the explanation," Revson said. "You got all this second hand," Bennett told him. "You were sitting up there in your ivory tower. And one of your important executives knew about this." This was a reference to the affidavit by George Abrams that he; had known of the program Abrams was then advertising chief for the Revlon firm.

Bennett also told Martin Revson! there were, discrepancies between his testimony and Abrams' sworn' statement. And Rep. Steven B. Evelyn, 9, Takes Ride to Baltimore (CONTINUED FROM MOE ONE) errands.

"This is very senous, and I think wt will just have to wait and see what the answer is." The joint negotiating session lasted only half an hour. On leav ing the conference, the union ores ident, David J.

McDonald, replied "absolutely none" when reporters asked him whether there was any progress toward a settlement. Arthur J. Goldberg, union coun sel, said no new offer was pre sented by the management side. This was confirmed by a mediation service official. R.

Conrad Cooper, chief indus try negotiator and executive vice president of U. S. Steel declined comment when he was asked whether he felt there was any chance for a settlement be fore the Supreme Court acted. Fmnegan said the contesting groups were instructed to be ready to return at any time, but he said it is unlikely there would be any new meeting before Fri day. He said both sides told him they saw no point in further sessions until some agreement could be worked out on cost figures for the various proposals made so far.

"Some of their figures didn't seem to make much sense," he said. On Oct. 16, the union proposed a money package it said would cost the industry 20.4 cents an hour over two years. The industry rejected it, contending the actual cost would be 28.8 cents an hour. On Oct.

17, the industry submit ted a counterproposal it said would cost 29.4 cents an hour. Turning down this offer, the un ion contended its value was 23.8 cents. Last week, the union made a separate agreement with the Kai-1 ser Steel estimating the added benefits at 22 cents an hour over 20 months. Before the strike began July 15.1 steel hand3 averaged $3.11 an hour. BISHOP NAMED WASHINGTON (UPI)-The Rt.

The present hearing was called after the Supreme Court ruled that witnesses must answer per tinent questions and furnish cer tain information about NAALF membership rolls or face contempt action. Both Gibson and Graham con-! tended that the NAACP would be "wrecked" if the names of mem-j bers were made public. COMMITTEE AIM Graham charged that he be lieved this was the committees aim.

"In the present racial climate of Florida and the South, where we are spearheading moves to integrate schools and other facilities, our organization would be wrecked if members thought we were going to disclose their names," Gib son said. He spoke of economic reprisals and physical injury against persons identified as members of the integration organization. Graham said he already has been subjected to cross-burnings and his wife has been threatened "just because people suspect I am a member of the NAACP." "Should I publicly reveal mem-! bership in the NAACP, there would be recurrences of tnese threats to me, my family and my church," he said. "Were I to identify others, the consequences would be disastrous." He said there had been bomb threats against his church. Lowry and three other NAACP officials, Vernell P.

Albury, E. Graves ana Rutn Ferry, an of Miami, were ordered to bring records with them, but all said they had none in their custody. The committee had no better success with four white witnesses from Miami, all questioned about possible Communist and NAACP activities.

Cole was charged with violating the 'right-of-way, according to pippin. Capt. Carl Kunamec of the Bal-r timore airport police said he was told that Los Angeles traced her through a check of Hollywood travel terminals. Kunaniee was asked to meet the plane when it arrived at the airport. He did so and turned the girl over to Mrs.

As her parents had done in Hol lywood, Evelyn an articulate customer with an abnormally high i.q. of 140 insisted that she had kept her departure plan a secret.
