TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1956 HUNGARIAN, POLISH REVOLTS: THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TAREE THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TIUIEE Russian Control in Europe Teeters Dangerously Television Center Sends Film Throughout Nation' By ROGER GREENE Associated Press Newsfeatures Writer Drenched in blood, the seeds of revolt behind the Iron Curtain have been ruthlessly crushed to earth by Soviet tanks in Hungary. Does that mean they will never grow again? For the moment, at least, the Western world's hopes that events in Hungary and Poland might trigger a general uprising against Russian tyranny in Eastern Eur- ope have faded. But now that the shooting is dying away, the rulers in the Kremlin may be troubled by an uneasy thought: If a decade of Communist rule in Hungary and Poland was not enough to squelch a desire for freedom, will the de- sire ever be extinguished? The answer plainly seems to be that the harsh Soviet control sys- tem failed; that the satellite em- pire - simply because it is an em- pire - contains the seeds of its own destruction. No one can now doubt that revolution found a hospitable soil in Hungary. Communist fears that the Po- lish and Hungarian bids for free- dom might spread through the rest of the Soviet satellite states, stretching from the Baltic to the Mediterranean, have been echoed in the shrill outcries of puppet leaders in those countries. Even since Russia sent her tanks to masscre the Hungarians, Red leaders in Czechoslovakia, Bul- garia, Romania, Albania and East Germany have been filling the air with threats against an attempt at an uprising. Czech Premier Siroky shouted that an "iron fist" would crush anyone trying to create disorder in Czechoslovakia. And the Communist rulers in Bulgaria declared they would "smash with an iron fist any re- actionary forces" attempting to foment a revolution. Here, in brief, is the way the situation sizes up in countries along the Soviet perimeter: Czechoslovakia - At present there appears little likelihood of a Polish-style "independence from Moscow" movement. The Czechs, with their flourish- ing industry and rich natural re- sources, hlave the highest living standards among all the satellite countries, Moreover, they are bound to Russia by fear of Ger- many. East Germany - Russia has over 400,000 heavily armed troops in the Red half of divided Ger- many. Under new "soft treatment" by Communist leaders, East Ger-, man resentment appears to have dwindled since the workers' re- volt of June 17, 1953.

The Educational Television and Radio Center has neither cameras nor studios. Its staff is, rather, a "thinking group", that develops and distributes programs on film and kinescope to the 22 educa- tional TV stations from coast to coast, affiliated with the nation- al organization. The programs are produced for the Center by pro- duction units around the coun- try. The Center was established in 1952, soon after the Federal Com- munications Commission set aside 258 channels for the exclusive use of noncommercial educational sta- tions. Not Connected With University It was built in Ann Arbor, says William A. Harper, Director of In- formation, because the city is in a good cultural and educational sit- uation and is centrally located with fine transportation facilities. He added that, contrary to popu- lar belief, the Center is not con- nected with the University, but en- Joys a warm relationship with it. According to FCC rules, the sta- tions' programs "should make the viewer think, learn or do some- thing." No commercials are al- lowed. The Center supplies these stations with some 25 per cent of their programs. Defines Role H.K. Newburn, Center president,, ,defines his group's role as "cen- tral in conceiving and testing a design for television as an instru- ment of education." Foremost in the principles by which the Center operates, he de- clares, is the idea that all pro- grams must be basically of an edu- cational nature. Humor and oth- er entertainment values are util- ized whenever possible, but, he{ emphasizes, they are always the means to an end, and never should predominate. ' Programs are usually done in a series, Newburn says, because edu- cation itself 5s a continuing pro- cess and little in the way of ba- sic results can ordinarily be ex- pected from a single performance. $ Three Soures of Programs The Center obtains its programs' from three major sources: ex- change among stations them- selves, existing educational film material, and'production under di- rect contract. Exchange of film material among the 22 stations is a com- mon practice. Newburn feels that "one of the great advantages of educational TV rests in the abil- ity to re-use materials if the pro- grams are of sufficient education- al value." Series of programs are often used concurrently by five or six stations and then rotated. In deciding which of existing educational films to use for sta- tion distributin, production men from the Center must make ex- tensive inventory of films avail- able in this country and abroad, as well as work out legal and oth- er questions of clearance for TV, Dr. Newburn said. So far, Newburn said, the most fruitful source of programs has been direct production under con- tract from the Center. The team thinks up several potentialities, and production men contract with studios in different parts of the counry that have the facilities for filming the show or series. The finished product, approved and edited by Center personnel, is sent to the Visual Aids Service at the University of Illinois, with directions for distribution to vari- ous stations. The Service handles all Center distribution.
