Yugoslav Television Gets Aid From American Sets Belgrade W Yugoslavia's television operation is still in the experimental stage, but it is enjoying unusual encourage ment, thanks to American and German generosity. With only limited program ming, now, Yugoslavia has 4,000 TV reclevers all gifts to Yugo slavs from friends and parents in the United States and Ger many. "We could use a million more acts of such generosity," said Dr. Ivko Pustisek, secretary-general tf the Yugoslavia State Radio and Television Diffusion. "Our own production of receivers is just beginning. The gifts admit ted duty free, have given us a quick start in developing our state network. Yugoslavia expects to produce 2000 sets this year, 3,000 next year and 10,000 a year by 1961. Prices are high at 120,00 dinar ($400) for a 17-inch screen. The Zagreb station is the key center for present broadcasting, and six days a week it relays Italian and Swiss TV, with Yugoslav originated programs televised for two hours every Sunday. By next year, Pustisek said, Yugoslavia hopes to have Za greb, Belgrade and Ljubljana linked in the first national net work, covering Serbia. Croatia and Slovenia. Later this year Yugoslavia expects to conclude agreements for the purchase from U.S. and German manufac turers of equipment for the three stations and necessary transmitters for relays between them. "We pick up Italian programs in Ljubljana and Zagreb with quality as good as in Rome," Pustisek- said. "We broadcast mostly Italian TV news pro grams, sports events, drama and opera. By the 1958-59 year we hope to have two to three hours daily of our own pro grams m flional network, with each of the Ihrw stations perhaps originating additional local programs." In July, when some 2,000 for eign gymnasts gather in Yugo slavia for a tournament spon sored by the International Gym nastic Federation, Yugoslavia will take its first step as a TV program producer for Euro vision. Planning is now under way with Eurovision representa tives to prepare for this event. Zagreb's operations as an ex perimental TV center began in May 1956. "We are progressing but not as far as we would like," Pus tisek said. "It Is slow but we are able to profit from the experi ence of others in developing na tional TV networks. For the present we do not charge any license fee for TV receivers. All the 4,000 sets sent in from abroad are privately owned. I but there are a few sets in cafes and resorts in the Ljublj ana broadcasting range. "We have found that we can pick up Italian broadcasts direct ly with perfect quality in some coastal areas and this is a ques tion which we are investigating. But the relays of Italian pro grams work excellently. At Za greb, with a large antenna, we are able to pick up Austrian TV directly as well, so possibilities for the future appear most prom ising." The Yugoslav TV operation has found little difficulty with language in relaying Italian pro grams. "Sometimes we have to cut them short, but for drama and opera and sports there is no dif ficulty," Putisek explained. "News and sports are the most interesting programs for our viewers thus far." In keeping with the TV de velopment, Yugoslavia has made renormous, strides in its radio broadcasting. It now operates 20 radio stations, with eight of them broadcasting complete pro grams every day. There are 750, 000 radios in the country com pared with 155,000 In 1939.

Combined Plans For Education Chicago (ffl A bumper crop of students will get liberal arts engineering degrees in the near future through combined edu cational plans. The combined plans generally enable students to obtain two degrees in five years three years at a liberal arts school and two years at an engineering school. One such plan is sponsored by Illinois Institute of Technology and 29 cooperating colleges and universities. Throughout the nation, at least 34 engineering colleges in 18 states are cooperating with 135 liberal arts colleges in 36 states in the so-called "3-2" programs. Ralph G. Owens, dean of en gineering at Illinois Tech, said there has been "an enormous growth of these programs within the last seven years." A student usually receives both a bachelor of arts degree from the liberal arts college and a bachelor of science degree in engineering from the engineer ing school. But Dean John D. Larkin of Illinois Tech said the mortality rate usually is high, because of the length and difficulty of the course and because many liberal arts students lack a sound foot ing in mathematics, physics and chemistry. "The plan was begun to help meet the need for engineers and at the same time provide stu dents with the broad educational background necessary to prepare them for increased responsibility Thursday. July 23, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Haste, Carelessness Cause Farm Accidents Champaign, 111. (IP) A Uni versity of Illinois farm safety specialist says carelessness and hurry cause 58 per cent of all farm accidents. "This is as true In winter as it is in summer," pointed out O. L. Hogsett, university farm safe ty instructor. "In winter most accidents occur while farmers are doing chores or handling livestock. They get in a hurry and become careless, surprising an animal and causing it to re taliate." During spring and summer the pattern changes. "At that time most accidents occur while farmers are in farm shops or driving tractors," he said. "More accidents occur with tractors than with any other farm implement. Many of these tractor accdents occur on the road." What Is the best way to pre vent these mishaps? "Travel in daylight," Hogsett advised, "and when that is not possible, use reflective tape on your implement so other drivers can see you." in industry and community life," Larkin said. A. V. Wilker, trustee of Baldwin-Wallace college and vice president of Union Carbon and Carbide Corp., called the plan "the best education presently available to a prospective engi neer, and especially for the en gineering student who intends to use his specialized training for background value only." A MEMORIAL New London, Wis. HP) The city council paid tribute to Mrs. Monte Boland by voting to erect a tombstone over her grave.
