The Federal Communication Commission re fused Thursday to launch an in vestigation of "sensationalism" charges against the Mike Wal lace interview show. The commission made the rul ing in a letter to Capt. James E. Hamilton, commander of the In telligence Department of the Los Angeles Police Department. It said there was not "sufficient basis" for such an inquiry. Hamilton had asked the FCC to investigate "derogatory state ments" made by gambler Mickey Cohen against himself and Police Chief William H. Parker during a Wallace TV interview over the American Broadcasting Co. May 19. Hamilton protested the "lack of industry self - regulation" which permits "sensationalism programs" of the Mike Wallace "type" to be broadcast.

Friday, November 8, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE MTYTK Study of Cancer Conditions in Fish Suggested by Oncologist f v f Deios Smith By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New Ybrk ill Whereas in man cancer may appear in any orqan or tissue of his body, in ctria i a ii usually ap pears only on the lips. But in t h e leopard frog cancer rarely is found any where b u t in the liver while in the para keet the usual places are the kidney and the pituitary gland. The characteristic horse can cer is in the nasal sinuses. On the other hand, both the platy fish and swordtail fish are gen erally cancer-free. But when they inter - breed (which they never do in nature but do in aquariums), the hybrid offspring is spectacularly sub ject to the highly malignant can cer of pigmentation cells. May Solve Riddle These assorted facts may strike you only as odd but to Dr. Hans G. Schlumberger and other oncologists (tumor scien tists) they contain the possibility of solving at least one of the many riddles whose sum total is cancer. This solvable riddle is this: How do the forces of heredity (as concentrated in the chromo somes of germ cells from which all lives, whether fish, fowl or mammal, have their beginnings), inter-act with the forces of en vironment and cause cells to go berserk and become cancerous? Schlumberger pointed to cat fish and eels. Those caught in industrially-polluted rivers of the East have a surprising incidence of lip cancers, but other kinds of fish in the same rivers don't. But the incidence of lip can cers in catfish and eels of un polluted streams is not known. Clearly science needs to know more about the natural history of cancer in catfish and eels. The suggestion is that a hereditary quirk triggered by an environ mental coincidence (chemically polluted streams) give many of , platyfish never love sword-tails them lip cancers, but more facts are needed. May Be Hereditary Quirk His platyfish - swordtail exam ple was even more provoking. Their hybrid offspring often have a heavy pigmentation neith er parent had, and this abnormal pigmentation often produces cancer. The suggestion is that I submerged hereditary quirks of both species combine into an ac tive cancer-causing flaw. But in their native Mexican rivers, Supervisors Approve Land Withdrawal Yreka Siskiyou county sup ervisors recently approved with drawal of 22,275 acres of land in the Mt. Dome area in north east Siskiyou county for the California Fish and Game de partment. This will insure con tinued public use of the land, they said. Although the land would re main under bureau of land man agement control, acquisition by private hunting groups would be prevented, they said. Leases for grazing and mining now held would remain in force in the section, the supervisors added. The move came after the Cali fornia Fish and Game depart ment noticed a trend of some people to purchase land in the public domain for use as private hunting grounds, according to Fred T. Ross, game manage ment supervisor. Ross said sev eral blocks of land in California were selected in an effort to preserve public domain lands from private acquisition. Two Vice Indictments Probing Dropped Portland (IP) Two more indictments returned by a vice probing grand jury were dis missed here Thursday by Circuit Judge Charles W. Redding. Judge Redding threw out in dictments which charged Team sters Union officials Clyde Cros by and Frank Malloy with con spiracy to commit extortion. In each case the reason given for dismissal was that facts set forth in the indictments did not constitute a crime. nor vice versa, and so the quirks are kept apart. Thus, the unna tural environment of an equari um triggers the hereditary. Schlumberger, who is a mem ber of the faculty of the Univer sity of Arkansas, is appealing to biologists and other scientists "who examine large numbers of animals not commonly studied by oncologists" to collect and study the tumors they see. He has made the appeal in lectures to scientific audiences. The Hollywood Scene Editor's note: Vernon Scott Is on vacation. Robert Mitrhum, movie tough guy, discusses casting his first independent film. By ROBERT MITCHUM Written for the United Presi Hollywood HP) Now I un derstand why Hollywood con fuses some issues and most peo ple. Let's swing a few examples. When we were filming "The Whippoorwill" for DRM Produc tions, my independent (?) com pany, we had to find someone who could play my younger brother. Did we hire my younger brother, Jack, who is a fine actor? Of course not. We hired my elder son, Jim, to play the part because he looks more like my brother than my brother does. No Call for Lady In the same picture the lead ing lady make that "leading woman" because the role doesn't call for a lady is a night club singer. That gives you a fair idea of the kind of night club it is. Any place that has more than Crochet-Quickie I Pretty way to keep your fin gers warm as toast, all winter!

Phone SP 3-4564 Sparta Bldg. Medford By VERNON SCOTT United Press Writer five tables and two waiters al ways calls a girl who sings "chanteuse." That's not only French for singer but it also means "watch the cover tab, dad, it's a gasser." Anyway, the usual drift is to find a dramatic actress who thinks Brahms is plural for Braham and that Dixieland is where they make out with paper cups. Then you hire a singer to do the songs while your square actress mouths the words for the camera. So we went out and hired a lady named Keely Smith.' Her only qualifications for the job are that she ' is the nightclub singer who draws people to her corner in Las Vegas like a pay off slot machine and whose plat ters keep the Capitol record peo ple sore-fingered and weary counting the money. Plays Moonshine Hauler Then there was the burning question about what happens to me in "The Whippoorwill." I play a "transporter," a man who hauls moonshine whiskey from the still to the distributor. One of Hollywood's oldest rules next to "put plenty of salt in the popcorn so they'll buy plenty of drinks" is this: "Never kill the star," or, "stay with the money." The theory is that audiences do not like to see the hero of the movie come to a bad end or even a good end. They want him to go on and on, circling the theaters like Sputnik. We decid ed to do me in a really gory and miserable death because, well, frankly, I deserved it. I should feel as revolutionary as a South American patriot, but all I feel is good all over. When "The Whippoorwill" was com nleted and turned over to United Artists for release I didn't have ulcer one! ICBM Concentration Urged by Former Aide Pasadena, Calif. HP) The United States should drop its project for launching an earth satellite and concentrate on the successful launching of an inter continental ballistics missile, says Trevor Gardner, former as sistant secretary of the Air Force. Gardner, now president of an electronic equipment manufac turing firm, said Thursday night that with the launching of Sput nik II, "it became too late for us to save face by launching our own satellite. "The successful launching of an ICBM would be much more effective psychologically," he added. "It would be a weapon threat." PACIFIC INDUSTRIAL 16 S.
