Ii "How do you expect me to build character when you fumble twice on the three-yard line?" NBC President Says Pay TV Could Wreck Free Television PITTSBURGH, Pa. W Robert W. Sarnoff. president of the Na tional Broadcasting Co., said to day nay-tclcviston can succeed only by "devouring the substance of free television. Sarnoff said NBC is convinced pay-TV is against the public in terest. "Of course," he added, "this view may not prevail and the pressures behind pay-TV may suc ceed in putting it over on the pub Officials Seek Lost Gadgets IRON MOUNTAIN,' Mich. Wl A search for scientific instruments "looted from the gondola of a Navy high-altitude balloon ex tended today to Chicago and Mil waukee. About 20 per cent of the equip ment has been recovered, ollicials said; but the most important in strument, a camera, is still miss ing. The recovered articles in clude a radio, the log book and some records. Otto C. Winien, president of Ihe Winzen Researcli Corp., who came here from Minneapolis to direct salvage of the equipment, said the KM is attempting to trace some of the missing items to Chi cago and Milwaukee. The search extended to those cities, Winzen said, on the theory that they were carried away by touvcnir hunters. The balloon came down in a swamp about 25 miles southeast of hero In the Hermansvillc area of Upper Michigan last Friday. Most of the articles recovered so far have been turned hi vol untarily. Winzen said immunity from prosecution was offered If the items were returned immediately. Some of the recording instru ments were turned in by teen agers. Others were recovered by FBI agents and state police. No arrests have been made and no charges filed. Joe Groth, a spokesman for the Winzen Corp., said in Minneapolis that the balloon's two-mnn crew made arrangements for stale po lice and the county sheriff's of fice to make periodic checks on the gondola, which was left in a swamp about a mile from a high way, lie said the guards were sta tioned on Ihe road and "appar ently thought no one would bother" Ihe gondola since it was so far back in the swamp."

He continued: "If it does eventually develop as the replace ment for free broadcasting, we, like the public, will have no choice but to follow the pay-TV tide.' The NBC president's remarks were contained in a speech pre pared for delivery to a luncheon given in his honor by William Block, publisher of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, at the Duquesne Club. The Post-Gazette owns WI1C NBC's new TV affiliate here. Pay-TV, Sarnoff said, "could ill timately sweep away the nation's free broadcasting system." He said the system includes 470 TV stations and three national TV networks. This prospect, he said, "shocks inc. The Federal Communications Commission announced Oct. 17 that a proposed public trial of sub scription TV will be limited to cities having top-quality TV serv ice from at least lour stations, The FCC said it will accept ap plications by stations to take part in demonstrations, but it af firmed its previous tentative de cision not to issue permit lor trials before next March 1.

The FCC said it was prepared to authorize demonstration of any system which would not interfere with other radio service or lower the quality of standard TV.
