Out of the state's total of 1,157 incorporated and thirty-three un- Mr. and incorporated cities, towns and villages, 580 have adopted it for 1953, which is an increase of twenty-four over last year. The totals for the five preceding 0f years were: 1952, 556;. 1951, 517; 1950, 487; 1949, 518; 194Sr 511. In most instances, daylight saving time went into effect on Sunday, April 26, and will continue until central standard time is resumed on Sunday, Sep£. 27. . . To FCC For Channel' 11 Three out of four traffic accidents happen in clear weather on dry roads. . Saturday is the most dangerous day of the week tn traffic. Excessive speed was the principal cause oit traffic accidents in 1952. V.* ^ v . '-V ' The Chicago Educational Television association has announced that it has forwarded to the Federal Communications Commission in Washington its application for the assignment of Channel 11 to Chicago as an educational television station. Edward L. Ryerson, president of the association, in making the announcement, said that the drive for funds to establish and maintain the station will be extended beyond the original date of June 2. The Chicago application will include the fact that nearly $500,000 of the $1,100,000 needed for Channel 11 has been pledged to date. Of the $500,000 nearly $175,- 000 has been contributed by the public so far; $150,000 pledged by the Ford Foundation and $150,000 by the Board of Education in the fcrm of facilities. Originally, the June 2 deadline was set by Channel 11 sponsors to conform to an FCC ruling that television channels for non-commercial use would be reserved until then. New, however, this has been changed. Ryerson said advices j from Washington now indicate that such reservations can continue for sometime. Quoting from a recent public notice issued by the FFC, Ryerson stated, "The Commission held that because educational institutions require more time than commercial interest* £0 V PLAINDEALER •^prepare for television, a reservation of channels is neces.sr.ry to insure that such stations actually oome into existence. Therefore, the decision of the FCC, was to extend the time limit to give educational television organizations a longer period to prepare for applications^" Ryerson said he was confident that the PCC would look with favor on Channel 11's status in view of the strong showing made financially and the progress made in organizing a beard of control, advisory committees, surveys on programs and the fact that excellent studio facilities would be available at Manley Vocational high school. "Moreover, I'm certain the FCC will be delighted to leafn of the enthusiasm that has been exhibited in the scores of communities in the 60-mile radius that Channel Xi will serve," Ryerson said. "We nave but to tell them of the many different neighborhood and community • fund-raising projects yet to be "held to illustrate the intensity of interest in Channel 11 as an educational TV station here in Chicago. "Although, we have an impressive application to submit to the FCC and we have no doubt that we will be granted a license." Ryerson said that Channel 11 sponsors are prepared to put the station into operation in about eight months after the FCC license is granted. The station will probably operate six days a week, five hours a day. In a bulletin to workers advising them of the extension cf time, Ryerson urged all communities and special committees: "1.

Mr. Ry&son praised the work done so far by the enthusiastic support of several hundred thousand volunteer workers, saying: "The prompt and energetic response of the citizens of the entire area enables us to forward Thlrt our application for jj U> Washington, confident that we f have' met all the basic renuli e rfments of the FCC."
