KFJI Applies For Television W. D. Miller, president of KFJI Broadcaatera Inc., announced to day he would file application Mon day for television channel 3. That is the sole channel alloted for Klamath Falls by the Federal Com munications Commission. Miller's application will be di rected to the FCC. Earlier this month Klamath Falls Television Inc. was Incorpor ated, with capital stock of $250,000, also to eventually bring television to tills area. However that firm has not made Its formal applica tion for a TV channel although its proposal Is a matter of record be fore the FCC. Bud Chandler, manager of radio atatlon KFLW, aald engineering de tails had held up making the for mal application. Since only one channel Is alloted Klamath Falls, there can be only one TV atatlon here unless Another channel i Is opened up. It will be up to the FCO to de cide which application Is approved, Thirty-three channels have been alloted 31 cities in Oregon, but only four Portland, Salem, Eugene and Metlfbrd may have TV competi tion, two or more stations. Chandler said that the philosophy- of Congress and of the FCO lr! approving TV applications has been that where only one station Is allowable, there should be more of a community Interest rather ' than closed corporation ownership. ' For that reason, the Klamath Falls Television Inc. application Is to show names of a large num ber of businessmen as stockholders in the corporation, Chandler said. The Incorporators of that firm were Chandler, Phil Hitchcock, Gene Bailie and Oeorge A. Myers. Prlr Fire Cent 14 Paget Lowd i f'rr ' : ff?""'
