TV Comedian Says Ratings Are No Joke WASHINGTON (UPI) Come dian Johnny Carson today talc told the House Commerce Investi gating Subcommittee that tele vision ratings were no joki entertainers. Television performers, Carson said, were annoyed by the fact that ratines had very little to do with the quality of a show It's "defeating" to have to base a career on numbers, he said. The subcommittee is holding hearings on the influence of ratings on tele vision and radio programs.

Describing actors as "paradoxi cal" about ratings, Carson said if you have a hifih rating they wonderful. If it's law, they're awful." However.

the latest figure available, the ratio had dropped to 2.75 nurses per 1000 population. And, as the association maintains there should be at least three nurses for 1000 persons, we now have a quarter less nurses than we should have. The intensity of the problem differs from hospital to hospital and city to city. Generally, local medical authorities say, tile situation is not as bad on the Peninsula as in some other Pacific coast areas. Because of newer hospitals, better working condi" Hons and Ihe proximity to San Francisco, we are able to attract more and better qualified nurses than, say, Santa Clara county.

This series of articles will attempt to answer some of the questions and try to offer a few solutions, even if they be compromises. That the problem exists can be quickly proved either statistically or by asking any authority in the field. That it varies from location to location and from hospital to hospital, however, cannot be disputed.
