The executive who chooses to invest in one of the 191 one, two, or three - bedroom liv ing uuils at a cost of $39, 500 to $53,500 can keep in touch with the financial world by means of a centrally-located itock ticker. By air, he is only two hours from Los Angeles and about four hours from New York. And there are ample tele phone and TWX lines to Keep in communication with the home office. Two Golf Course For recreation, there arc two 18-holc golf courses at nearby Randolph park. There are four swimming pools for residents of the project which is called Eden Roc. There's a fifth pool for clerical and domestic ncip, 11 you piease Adjoininc Kdcn Roc is a development which includes a restaurant, cocktail lounge, complete catering service and specialty shops. Bert M. Olden, a Santa Monica millionaire who re cently sold his Congress of Motor hotels and Congress inns to eastern interests, is the man behind Eden Roc. He thinks that corporations as well as individual execu tives will be interested in his project. "Corporations wnicn iiivcm heavily in both management health and top-level meetings can be their own landlord at much less cost with the new concept actually designed lor physical well-being as well as thinking and planning," he enthuses with an exclama tion point in his voice. Lease Contracts "I'm so confident of busi ness and financial communi ty acceptance, my company will carry lease contracts whereby the 'business-resort-homcs' can be purchased by established corporations, insti tutions, or executives with no initial cash at 4"i per cent interest for five years or more. A clear warranty deed would be given purchas ers for one dollar at termina tion of any such lease." He points out that lessees can take tax deduction on depreciation, interest and maintenance costs. An as'eragc monthly main tenance fee of $125 will in clude cost of fire and liabili ty insurance; real estate taxes; upkeep of private and com mon yard areas; 24-hour pri vate police protection; tele phone plus answering service; mail handling; 24-hour PBX and TWX systems, and exteri or painting every three years. Owners will control their own facilities through an elec ted board of governors, says Olden, so they will have a voice in how the place is op crated. And as an added attraction to some members of the old er set. children under 18 and household pets will be barred from t lie premises. We Cater DANCE TILL 2 A.M.

"There is the usual amount of petty theft, an oc casional crime of violence and fights - usually on Saturday night. But the Sainoan is ba- sirally a happy, peaceful guy who wants to avoid trouble instead of looking for it." Bi-lingual Philipp learned Tase produced at the university's well equipped KUSC sludio. 13 Topics Thompson explained thai 13 major topics would be cov ered in the series with five 5-minute shows dedicated to each subject. KGBS, a 50,000 watt mem ber of the Slorcr Broadcast ing company, has been strong in public service program ming. Currently listeners hear "Voices of Freedom" several times a day during which well known Americans ex press views on freedom. At the close of each one-minute broadcast, citizens arc urged to do something individually to further freedom. "Voices of Freedom" was produced by another of the seven Storer stations, W1BG in Philadelphia, through the cooperation of the Freedom foundation. Unique Presentation The KGBS historical pro grams, which may be ordered by any station free of charge, will not be a dry presentation of historical facts but dif ferent and unique. "We don't want lo present listeners wilh a boring educa tional program. We want lo make it exciting," said Thompson. Thompson's concept of a "responsible broadcaster" is part of his everyday think ing and constantly crops out in conversation. "It is the responsibility of broadcasters to become active in the community. Stations are licensed by the govern ment and subsequently by the people. Therefore we must provide the people wilh the best program, music, news and the unusual." Prime Time The historical scries, to be carried on prime time by KGBS will nol be sponsored "It will be expensive for us but we believe it's worth it," said Thompson. "We want people to take a basic interest in their coun-1 try, government, and color-1 ful history," c x p I a I n e d Thompson. "A lot of people haven't had a chance to go to school, and we hope these historical programs will stim- j ulatc their interest." Storer Broadcasting com-1 pauy is underwriting the en tire series estimated lo cost , about $2,000 in addition to reproduction of more tapes for stations which request ' the scries. j The company also is con sidering creation of a schol arship al USC for a student producer designated lo work wilh Thompson. Space Series "This is only a start . , , next we hope to do a scries on Space," said Thompson. The 13 topics to be cov ered under the current his torical project included: The early formation, the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution, the Bill of Rights, 10th century Ameri can history. Modern America, democracy, foreign affairs, government, totalitarian gov ernment, free enterprise, con trol by the government on business and Ihc future dealing with foreign affairs and the United Nations.

Independence was granted' Jan. 1 of this year. "The high chiefs are thi real law-enforcing agents in western Samoa," Philipp said. "Their power is just about absolute, and it is all dons without ever resorting to phy sical violence.

The only evidenco of his authority is a shotgun gathering dust in a corner of the room. His parents met and married in New Zealand, and his father moved to south Texas to try a hand at truck farming. "But that wasn't the tima tn farm along the border," Philipp said. "Between tha drought and Pancho Villa's raids we just about went broke and many a meal from the jackrabbits, ducks and deer we hunted." Chief Philipp's mother who was part Samoan and born on the island of Savii, finally convinced her husband that there was more of a future in Samoa than in Mercedes, and the family headed south in 1918. Departed "We landed here at Apia on July 31." Philipp said, "and were immediately deported' back to American Samoa as the New Zcalanders suspecled that my Berlin-born father might be a spy. The New Zca landers had just taken Sa moa over from the Germans and had brought in a con tingent ot troops to occupy the island. "That deportation order saved our lives," the Chief continued, "as the troops brought the flu with them and wiped out half the Samo an population. ' Since May, 1019, when tha New Zealand authorities final ly allowed the Philipp family lo enter western Samoa, Phil ipp lias lived here in tha islands. He has been in polica work for nearly thirty years.
