Police Doubt Youth's Story He Killed 17-Year-Old Girl Ex-Governor's Son Joins Candidates For Congress LOS ANGELES UR W. Olson, 37-year-old son of former California Governor Culbert L. Olson, today joined the growing number of candidates who will seek nomination for the 26th Congressional District seat in the June primaries. Olson, a Democrat, has been in law practice With his father since his discharge from the Navy in 1945. Monorail Lines Held Feasible In L.A.

Area LOS ANGELES (D A monorail rapid transit system in the Los Angeles, area may increase the business of existing transportation systems, an engineer told the state Senate Committee on Highways. George W. Burpee, senior partner of Coverdale and Colpitts, New York engineering firm, declared yesterday that a speedy monorail system could take commuters out of their autos. Thus, he said, the persons would be forced to use existing buses and streetcars, which would become distributing systems for the monorail. Study Authorized In 1951 His firm submitted a comprehensive report on monorails to the committee.

The report was prepared for the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority, established by the 1951 Legislature to look Into the possibility of monorail systems solving Los Angeles transportation problems. Similar studies were under way in San Francisco. The engineers found a monorail route feasible between San Fernando Valley and the Harbor area. Two routes were proposed, both identical except that one is longer than the other. The longer 45.7 miles would connect Panorama City with Long Beach and would cost 5165,207,000.

The shorter would link North Hollywood with Compton, 28.6 miles away, and would cost Burpee said the shorter route, because it is contiguous to the denser population, would have a better chance of paying for itself than the longer one. The projects would be financed by bonds, amortized over 20 years. Subway Proposed Seventeen stations would be built along the route, which would be an overhead monorail, except for two miles along Hill Street in downtown Los Angeles. That stretch would be a subway. Coaches, which could seat 67 passengers, would average 41 miles an hour and could cover the entire route in 67jninutes.

Travel time would be about half that of existing facilities and fares would be less. Burpee said the fare from one end of the line to the other would be 50 cents, and it would cost 35 cents from either end to downtown Los Angeles. The project could be put into operation by 1960, and engineers estimate its income would be $23,500,000 annually from 79 million passengers. The cigar-shaped monorail cars would be electric powered and would reach speeds of 60 miles an hour. Parking facilities far autos would be provided at all stations Except those downtown.

The parents and teachers are seeking ways to influence children to select better programs and leave more time for reading, said Dr. Paul Witty.

Witty is professor of education and director of the universitys physcho educational clinic who has just made his fourth annual study of televisions influence on the habits of children. Elementary he said, now average 22 hours a week televiewing compared to an hour a week in 1950. High school students watch TV 17 hours a week compared to 14 hours three years ago. Slight Affect Recreation Witty said parents and teachers fear that excessive time spent, watching television will "influence reading and study habits adversely" and cause youngsters to read less and chobse materials of inferior quality and doubtful value. Moreover, he said, some 'and teachers believe that excessive interest in TV may divert the child from participation in wholesome recreation and in desirable physical ac- tivities.

Wittys observations resulted a study of the TV habits of 3,000 elementary and high school pupils and their parents and teachers in the Chicago area. Twenty eight per cent of the teachers and 30 per cent of the parents fear that TV might ultimately result in-nervousness, lack of other recreation, and disinterest in school. Educational Programs 1 Thirty-eight per cent of the parents and 34 per cent of the teachers said children in schools read less now than before television. Many asked for more educational programs and the pre-. sentation of more childrens programs at favorable evening hours when televiewing is at its peak.

Parents asked for fewer murder, western, crime, mystery and horror stories, but asked for more programs showing circus acts, zoo animals, kindergarten Classes, and comedy. Teachers favored more current events, music, travel, history and literature, while parents asked for better movies, more music; education, drama history. Up to Parents The pupils themselves also offered suggestions. High school students asked for more humor, musical program and new movies. Younger pupils favored comedy, cartoons, science and dramatization of favorite books.

Witty offered parents and teachers some suggestions for meeting the problem. He said they should offer boys and girls abundant opportunities for varied play activities and creative pursuits. Parents, he said, should suggest effective ways of budgeting time and how to establish criteria for selecting TV programs. Both the parents and teachers should discuss interesting books with children and try to relate favorite TV programs to good reading, he added Toll Road Plan May Hit Snags CHICAGO CUR The American Society of Planning officials warns there are drawbacks in setting up express toll roads. The toll roads, which will soon total 2,000 miles throughout the country, have made more money and carried more traffic than originally estimated, the society said.

However, none of the turnpikes has been in operation during a depression, the group warned. The Society made its report on the basis of a study by the Institute of Transportation and Traffic Engineering at the Uni-versity-of California. The reoprt said that many parts of the country do not have enough traffic to make a toll road pay. In other sections, good free roads offer serious competition to toll highways. Financing Costs More It was found that toll roads, on which federal funds cannot be used, have usually been financed by revenue bonds at a cost twice as great as financing by general obligations bonds of the state.

Fees for using toll roads are about equal to a 20-cent-per-gal-Ion tax on gasoline, the survey said, but drivers get better road and driving conditions, the report said. The Society said all the turnpikes are making enough money to meet their bond obligations and actual net receipts are generally well ahead of estl- mates. In 1952, the average daily traffic on the major turnpikes went far beyond what had been expected. The Colorado Turnpike carried 4,600 vehicles compared with an estimate of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. 11,000 compared with and the New Jersey Turnpike 20,000 compared with 8,300.
