Televising of '52 Conventions Under Network Study WASHINGTON UP—The question of televising the 1952 presidential nominating conventions as a public service or under commercial sponsorship is being studied by network and national committee officials. One informal meeting has been held and the four television companies have been asked to put their ideas in writing. Whatever policy is worked out for TV will also apply to radio. Party conventions have been broadcast for years. Those in the two nominating years since 1940 have been televised on a limited scale. Both times they have been sustaining jobs—that is, without sponsors on scenes from the hall itself. Sidelights, such as special interviews and commentaries from studios backstage or in hotels, have been sponsored. With the tremendous growth in television, the networks say, the cost of telecasting next year's conventions at Chicago will be too great to bear without sponsors. A trade publication said recently one network estimated it would cost $2,000,000 just in cancellations of other sponsored programs, plus an expense sum almost as great, to cover both conventions.

Beautification of the islands on Parkway and Mills dr., was undertaken earlier this summer by the department under Superintendent Vic Ruedy.

McCracken denied flatly that he had been there, the witness said. Cadman further testified of typing blood samples found in McCracken's cabin and determining them to be type A on the day that Patty's body was found. He received a sample of her blood from the autopsy surgeon and this was also type A. In the meantime he had typed McCracken's blood and found it to be type O. There was no indication when the defense might finish with its cross-examination of Cadman, so that the prosecution could call its next scheduled witness, Roger Greene, state criminologist from Sacramento, who made extensive tests on more than half of the...

The bombers, each carrying two men, were part of a flight of six planes which were evacuated from Los Alamitos base to escape a storm approaching that area. The PBM bombers left Los Alamitos Naval Air station at 3 p.m., yesterday, and were due at Moffett Field at 5:30 p.m. They had not been reported at 9 a.m. today. A Moffett Field spokesman said he understood the Naval Air station at Monterey was sending up search planes. Bad weather in the San Francisco Bay area prevented planes being sent aloft by the Air Rescue Squadron at Hamilton Field. A low overcast made visibility very poor, but planes were ready to start a search if the weather improved. The two missing planes were among about 100 non-hangared craft removed from the Southern California storm area. MORE ABOUT . . .

Optional participation would be the same in every other respect. One Per 5 Acres Standard Condition 2—Not more than one well may be drilled for each five acres of land to each zone containing, or believed to contain, an oil-producing sand.

Standard Condition 3—Drilling operations must commence within 90 days from the date of the final action of the city council in establishing the oil production district and must be continued to completion or abandoned if a producing well is not secured within 12 months. In the event of abandonment, the drill site must be restored to its original condition as nearly as possible. Standard Condition 4—All drilling and pumping operations (including mud pumps and compressors) must be conducted with electric, internal combustion or steam driven equipment, the latter two types to be equipped with modern mufflers to reduce noise to a minimum.

Los Angeles St. Anaheim “What happens when Standard men go into the armed forces?” One question on many people's minds these days is how military service may affect themselves or people they know...their jobs; their family security. People ask us, of course, about what happens to employees of Standard Oil Company of California. The answer shows what a big company can do. Standard Oilers come through this trying period in better financial shape than you might expect: Let's take for example Bill, an average young Standard Oiler. He makes $368 a month. He has Company-paid life insurance worth $4,420, a pension plan paid partly by himself, other benefits. Suppose Bill is called into the armed forces. One problem a man faces then is lower income. But because Bill qualifies as to dependents and length of service, he'll be helped by a Standard Plan. When Bill leaves, he gets an extra month's pay. Then, Standard sends his family a monthly check to make up the difference between his GI and Company pay—up to one-half his regular salary. Moreover, Bill's Company life insurance remains in force. And the pension plan, which Bill paid for in part while he was working, continues to grow—but now Standard of California pays it all. When Bill comes back, his job is waiting, his benefits are intact. Standard, having big economic resources can act to preserve the human resources of the nation... people like Bill and his family. This is Standard's "G.I. Policy" for qualified employees called into the Armed Forces. We believe it helps to strengthen Company morale, and that of the whole nation as well. I'd Like to Know ... Many people write to Standard asking pertinent questions about the Company. We answer all letters individually, but some points seem of general interest. We take this way of discussing them for everyone. If you have a question, we urge you to write in care of: "I'D LIKE TO KNOW," 225 Bush Street, San Francisco 20, California.
