He also has to his credit at least one admitted publication, a study of the saffron shiner. No fanatic, though, he loves the saffron. The wide-spread stream pollution of this area has caused many more predatory fishermen to go screaming in carnivorous hunger, but Dr. Outten surveys his streams with humor intact. There is a need for conserva tion, perhaps, though the prop er agencies are doing something about it. The mill dyes shouldn’t empty into the rivers and kill the catfish. Wastes shouldn’t pour into streams and dye their bottoms poison green — yet there are other problems, too. Less-known problems such as silting when roads are built. Too much gravel, too, can be fatal . . . but Dr. Outten de preciatingly dismissed his love for the fish with a little smile. “Of course,” he said, “we need the roads, too.” U.S.S.R. claims TV all not to go 'oi.ffor. is’, or with T i natural fund authority on fish. ally mountain fish.

For example: You’d probably laugh if you heard the Russians claiming the invention of television, but for once there would be some truth in their boasting. A Russian, Boris Rosing, was one of many “fathers” of TV; he was first to prove, in 1907, that the ca thode ray tube could transmit images. It was a Scotsman, John Lo gie Baird, who gave the first public demonstration of TV in 1926, and within 10 years the lormal to be a certain am ity and self WELCOME TO MARS HILL development Is it wrong t waiting foi or less mono laving childroi vlon, Tussy, Old Spice, Coty, Yardley, ..ill quietly & Other Toiletries sgust. ” diingsworth Gandy — Eaton’s Stationery BUS STATION tt ktSS^ Tickets anywhere and information Complete Line of MARS HILL PHARMACY imit to kissd en kiss is 5 movie industl ve no limit lad taste and .| t be the one lore than oH' ill well and ( de industry THE MARS HILL ^ & 10 Department Store apologies * i was gross' of the paps' jar at Mors ^ exchange e Hilltop.

Color television, still among the “things to come” for Mars Hill (Mrs. Roberts of the mod ern language department and her husband have the only set in town), was first demonstrat ed in 1929 by the Bell Tele phone Laboratories over wire circuits between New York and Washington. By 1940, color programs were being broadcast experimentally by the New York CBS station. It was "in compatible” color, though, and could not be received by ordi nary black and white sets. Com patible color did not make its advent until 1951. Surprisingly enough “Cap tain Kangaroo” isn’t the most durable show on TV. That honor is held by a religious pro gram “This Is The Life,” pro duced by the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod. Since it joined the network in the fall of 1952, the program hasn’t missed a single week. It is carried by 342 stations every week and is viewed by an estimated 10 mil lion people in the U. S. and Canada. What would your guess be as to the most widely viewed sin gle TV transmission in history, a World Series game, a launch ing from Cape Canaveral, a Mars Hill football game? Ac cording to the BBC, it was the I960 wedding of Princess Mar garet and Antony Armstrong- Jones, which was viewed by a world-wide audience of 300 mil lion. Largest TV commercial con tract ever signed was the 1959 pact between Perry Como and his sponsor, Kraft Foods, for 66 one-hour NBC-TV color pro grams. Kraft paid $25 million and that’s a lot of cheese and jelly! Despite this record, though, Como is not the highest-paid TV performer of all time. He’s pianist - commedian Victor Borge. In 1953 he appeared on a 60-minute CBS show for $175,000, which is $2,917 per minute. Title of youngest TV actor goes to Gordon Campbell Kerr, whose birth by Caesarean sec tion was telecast over 49 NBC stations on Dec. 2, 1952. Aside from the “astro-nuts” of those bread commercials on WBTV, Channel 3, the most “out - of-this - world” performer is probably French star Yves Montand, who recently made history with his transatlantic tel ecast via Telstar space satellite. “Back to our sponsors in just a minute, but first a word from our program . . .” Rick Williamson, with bucket in hand, seems to know something that Jim McCormick, the unsuspecting victim, doesn’t know. Pretty soon, though, the knowledge will be mutual. Pranks are an everyday thing, even at Mars Hill. Any time is prank time on collegiate campus (ACP) — Any time is likely to be the silly season on the campus. Just consider some of the collegiate pranks reported by John Armstrong in THE COLLEGIAN, Fresno State College: One warm spring day several years ago a collection of tro phies mysteriously disappeared from a showcase in a fraternity house at Ohio State University. Several months later the house received a letter from a Catholic bishop in charge of missions in a Latin-American country, thanking the fraternity for its donation. “Following your instructions,” wrote the bishop, “I have had the trophies melted down, stamped into religious medals and distributed to natives in the hinterlands.” Only then did the brothers realize that they had been ta ken. California Institute of Tech nology is the undisputed cham pion in the field of technologi cal warfare. Just ask the Cal Tech senior who found a com pletely assembled Ford in his bedroom. He had to remove the auto piece by piece. Or the freshman who found every sejuare inch of his room occu pied by a giant weather balloon full of water. have - a - queen - for - every thing - under - the - sun craze, several students nominated a nanny goat for prom queen back in the early 1940’s. Finally, the goat was disqual ified on the grounds she had not been a resident on the cam pus the preceding year. Never theless, she still ran a strong third in the voting. Three profs at the Univer sity of Southern California have gone on record as almost un conditionally condoning pranks, providing they’re nondestruc tive. The comments to Karen Gustafson, DAILY TROJAN feature editor, included: “It’s not harmful. I used to engage in that sort of thing and recovered.” And, “You’ve got to get it out of your system when you’re young. Picture a man of 40 in a panty raid.” They cite as a classic harm less prank the time the UCLA DAILY BRUIN was hijacked b)^ use students and replaced with a slamming mock edition the day before a football game.
