Ail TV and radio forecasters get their information from the Weath er Bureau, of course. But Antoine is the only one who makes me comprehend how it might rain or it might shine. He's authoritative, but not dictatorial. With an elo quent shrug he can explain how it might not turn out the way he expects at all. TJiere are a lot of women fore- mat casters on TV around the country Personally I'd give all of them other assignments. Weather is a man's business. When a woman gets into it she's either too posi tive or too negative. She always makes me aware she's a woman when 1 only want to concentrate on the weather. A tall, slim fellow with a flair for a good phrase and a talent for drawing, Antoine was a radio an nouncer for 12 years before the: suddenly put him on the weather beat. In the past few years he's become such an expert that lie's now writing a book about you Know what. My increased interest ill weath er since the advent of a TV set is shared by many, Antoine as sured me. His mail proves it. How fundamental weather is to the hu man condition is shown, he be lieves, by the fact that angry let ters almost always arrivo in pe riods ol depressive weather. "Depressive weather seems to have a real relationship to cardiac conditions and the schizoid per sonality," he said. He pointed out: People generally are more in terested in weather during the winter than in summer. But the time of greatest interest is when a hurricane is approaching. A fore cast of rain usually leads to some silly phone calls such as. "Will it rain by 11 o'clock tonight?" Weather just :mt and I don t think ever will be that predict - able." Antoine said. "It's like standing at the edge of the At- lantic and demanding to know just what wave will wet your toes."

Lee Bids TV, Radio Change Sales Pitches Savs Public Oulrajjc Is About to Result in FCC Censure NEW YORK W) Commissioner Robert E. Lee said today the Fed eral Communications Commission docs not want to censor radio and TV advertising but that the prac tices of "a few sharp operators" may force action by Congress in this field. In an address prepared for a meeting of the Radio and Televi sion Executives Society, Lee em phasized his criticism was direct ed only a "shortsighted minority." He assorted this group 'through cynical disregard for the rights of the customer and legitimate adver tiser has reached the point where the proper function of advertising as a useful agent in our economy is seriously threatened." Lee said the files of FCC, the Federal Trade Commission and Better Business Bureaus through out the country reflect public con demnation of some advertising practices. He mentioned the offering of merchandise not actually intend ed for sale, the 'knocking" of cer tain merchandise in order to switch customers to more profitable items, the advertising of goods not available in sufficient quantity to meet reasonable demand, and "in ordinately" long commercials. 'For myself," he said, 1 sense a ground swell of public revulsion that is making itself felt not only in the industry but in Congress as well. 'The FCC as presently consti tuted believes in the industry and abhors any thoughts of censoring advertising or copy and this atti tude is healthy for the industry, but do not force congressional nc'ion that will throttle you into a gov ernment vassal. This will surely come if an outraged public de mands it." CLEAN GFTAWAV TUCSON, Ariz. An c'mbar assed member of lhc Tucson police force is looking for a burglar.
