THE TAR HEEL Thursday, August 11, 1966 Page 8 UNC Invited Into Nation The Ford Foundation has in vited the University of North Carolina's Educational Televis ion stations to share in the de velopment of a system of ed ucational TV distribution by satellite. John Young, director of the University's educational tele vision studio here, has receiv ed a letter from McGeorge Bundy, president of the Ford Foundation, calling his atten tion to the Foundation's propo sal for a nonprofit, satellite communications system for the United States. Klan Charges Undecided Two UNC students, and the wife of one of them, who claim that they were assault ed at a July 31 Ku Klux Klan rally in Raleigh say they will press charges if their "finan cial situation" permits. Reid T. Reynolds, a gradu ate student, and Elliot Kram es, a senior, and his wife, re portedly discussed the possi bility of bringing assault char ges against the Klan with Wake County Superior Court Solicitor William G. Ransdell Jr. GRAHAM MEMORIAL BARBER SHOP in your Student Union Accompanying the letter is a copy of the complete proposal for an educational, noncom mercial "fourth network" pre sented to the Federal Com munications Commission sev eral days ago. Bundy invites Young to "share our interest" in the plan and asks for com ments and suggestions on the proposal. As a solution to the "money" problems of educational or non-commercial television, the Ford Foundation recommends that commercial networks (ABC, CBS and NBC) be al Solicitor Ransdell, contacted in Raleigh Wednesday, said he "might have a statement Thursday," when asked about the case. "They have not demonstrat ed that they are dying to press charges," Ransdell said. "There is a question of iden tity," he added, "You can't just fill out a John Doe war rant." Ransdell said he had view ed a film showing part of the scuffle taken by a Wilmington TV reporter, Wes Guptill. He refused to comment on what the film showed. Krames, from Greensboro, and Reynolds, from Ossining, New York, reported that they, along with Krames' wife, re ceived a polite snub from po lice when they asked to press charges against Klansmen and Come Anyway You Like But Gome To Our Greatest DOLLAR BAY SALE To 66 Reductions On Entire Stock of Spring & Summer Merchandise Upstairs Downstairs at lowed to use the new satellite system for relay purposes. The satellite system would carry all cross-country signals of present commercial net works at an estimated savings of $45 million over the cur rent cost of ground communi cations systems. The newtorks would then contribute two thirds of their annual savings to the noncommercial, educa tion network, which also would use the satellite system. Young terms the Ford Foun dation proposal a "model way of meeting the needs of cdu- Klanswomen who attacked them during a rally in down town Raleigh, on Sunday, July 31. Instead, Klan Security Guards and two plainclothes men escorted them from Nash Square where the rally was being held, they said! The three reported only mi nor injuries. The "plainclothesmen" turn ed out to be Dt. Lts. Larry Smith and Edgar Duke. Krames said he and his wife both wore civil rights buttons to the rally, but did nothing to incite the Klansmen. At a news conference last week, Gov. Dan Moore con demned the Klan's tactics and said he had asked Solicitor Ransdell to make a full inves tigation of the incident. J?

With spe cific reference to the Univer sity's educational televis ion stations, he visualizes the Ford proposal as the "missing link" between programs now offered by the University and a broadcast service affording the immediacy of a live net work.
