FRIDAY ISSUE Next Issue Tuesday Vol. 34, No. 41 Radio Station Let Off Hook As Candidate Quits Running John Rogers, formerly a candidate for Town Con- stable of Chapel Hill, has conclusively withdrawn from the election. There were some tense moments before he did, though. San dy McClamroch, president of radio station WCHL, where Mr. Rogers conducts an early morning and a mid day radio program, stated to the Weekly on Tuesday that until Monday, when the fact came out that John Rogers’ name had actually not been officially taken off the ballots, though he had announced his intention to drop out of the Town Con stable race, WCHL had as sumed that Mr. Rogers had formally notified the elec tions board of his withdraw al from tne election. Publication on Monday of the fact that Mr. Rogers was at that time still in the tion, with his name on the ballots, put Mr. McClamroch and station WCHL in an em- barrassing position by im plying that WCHL was in volved in what Mr. McClam roch called a “shady deal.” WCHL, through no action of it.s own except its ignorance ■of Mr. Rogers’ failure to no tify the elections board of bis withdrawal from the race, was in violation of Fed eral Communications Com mission regulations unless Mr. Rogers made it official by tomorrow (Saturday) that he is not a candidate for Town Constable. Mr. McClamroch added in his statement that he apol ogized to the listening pub lic for the incident, though he was not responsible, that Mr. Rogers was not at pres ent working at WCHL, and that Mr. Rogers would not o continue working there if his withdrawal from the election was not made of ficial. ’ If Mr. Rogers had not of ficially withdrawn the FCG would have been quite with in it.s rights in cancelling WCHL’s license and taking the station off the air with as iittle as five minutes’ notice. The rule WCHL inadvertantly violated requires a radio station, the facilities of which are used hy a political candidate, to offer the same facilities to that can didate’s opponents. WCHL had not, of course, offered Vernon Burch, the other candidate for the constableship, equal radio time as was used by Mr. Rogers, since it was assumed that Mr. Rogers was no longer a candi date.
