Howard D. Felsher, dis charged a week ago by NBC as producer of the "Tic-Tac-Dough"- program, made the statement in testimony before a House investigating sub committee. He had testified previously that at least three out of four contestants on the night-time version of that pro gram had received question and answer information in ad vance. : Subcommittee counsel Rob ert. W. Lishman asked Felsh er about his contacts with contestants prior to the Grand Jury proceedings. Felsher said he met with four or five indi viduals but telephoned to 22 or 23 of them. No Word From Van Doren The subcommittee , waited, meanwhile, v for ' an answer from Charles Van Doren, 33, big money, winner on the old "21" show, invited to appear as a witness. Felsher said he told "Tic-Tac-Dough" contestants that "if I were to testify before the Grand Jury I would deny that I had given them ques tions and answers in , ad vance." . , He also said, in response to a question, that he suggest ed that contestants also deny that they had received such assistance. Asked whether . Dan En right, of the Barry & Enright production team advised him to make the suggestion, Felsh er said no. Affidavit Refused NBC fired Felsher as pro ducer after he was subpoe naed by the subcommittee and refused last' week to supply NBC with ',. an affidavit that he had not supplied contest ants with answers in ad vance Of his Grand Jury advice to contestants,. 'Felsher said: "I was panicked-terrorizedr- I just did it.".;.,, He usually ' met with con testants in his office to give them the information Feign er said, but sometimes did so at his home and sometimes in his automobile. In some instances, he said, he explained to new contest ants that they were being brought in to cut down the winnings "of highly successful contestants. Van Doren Suspended Felsher said that, to the best of his recollection, no one at NBC asked him until last week whether he sup plied advanced questions and answers to "Tic-Tac-Dough" contestants. The National Broadcasting Co. suspended Van Doren from his $50,000 job which features him in appearances on the early morning "To day" show. The scholar also teaches , at Columbia Univer sity. A substitute teacher han dled his 'classes today. He was suspended by the network until questions raised by the House .'subcommittee are re solved; Churchill Picked For Ninth Term , London - CTD - The Con servative member from Wood ford will be 85 years old next hionth. But he is a man with a future. ; ' Sir Winston Churchill was elected to the House of Com mons Thursday for the ninth consecutive time. It was an easy victory. No blood, no toil, no sweat. And no tears, either, for even some mem bers of the Labor Party in Woodford admitted they couldn't find it in their hearts to vote against him. There has been much talk that this would be Sir Win ston's last political , battle. That talk apparently got back to the old warrior, for the Conservative committeeman from Woodford, Jack Frost, issued this statement: "The feeling among us is that as long as his body lasts Sir Winston will continue to be a member of Parliament."

First Vaccine Dose Crucial, Salk Says Pittsburgh , -(UPD- Dr. Jonas E. Salk, developer of the Salk polio "accine, said Thursday any failure by the vaccine to provide protection can be blamed on "insufficient" strength of . the first dose. "The idea that there are 5j 10 or 15 per cent of the population who cannot re spond to the vaccine is not so," Salk said, j The - University of Pitts burgh scientist explained in a speech here that the first dose is "crucial" because it creates a barrier for subsequent in oculations. He said the strength of the first dose also affects the protection levjl that will be gained by a "booster shot."
