C. B. S. Wins Extension
For Transmitter Work
The Columbia Broadcasting Sys
tem today was granted an extension
of six months to complete its pro
posed new transmitting station near
Wheaton, Md. The Federal Com
munications Commission today fixed
May 20. 1940. as the time when the
construction must be completed.
November 20 had been fixed in
the original construction permit
issued by the Communications
Commission. Harry C. Butcher,
vice president in charge of the
Washington office of the net
work, said that a steel-handlers’
strike and other factors had pre
vented them from completing the
new station within the specified
time. Also, he said, a new type of
construction is being used for the
new transmitter and it requires
more careful construction than
usual.
Another problem, he said, was the
placement of the steel beams which
will support the roof over the entire
building.
Mr. Butcher said that although
the extension of time was given
until next May 20, after a confer
ence with the contractors and radio
engineers, he was quite certain that
j WJSV would be on the air from
its new transmitter not later than
! January 1,

Woman and Two Men Are Safe
After Battle With Blizzard
Bj the Associated Press.
MOUNT WASHINGTON, N. H„
Oct. 24—Two men and a girl who
refused to lose their heads were
safe and sound at their homes today
after being exposed for 24 hours to
the rigors of sub-freezing tem
peratures and winds of hurricane
force atop snow-capped Mount
Washington.
“We were not afraid,” said the
girl. Miss Anne Pearsall, 26, of
Lowell, Mass., a slim, 5-foot 2-inch
blond. Her companions, Edward
Coughlin, 25, also of Lowell, and
Robert Baston, 21, of Billerica, Mass.,
echoed her remark with “we weren’t
terribly scared.”
Tired and hungry, and with their
clothing frozen from the hips down,
the three were found within a mile
of a principal highway just at dusk
last night, roped together and
trudging along a well-defined trail ,
Private Services
Planned Tomorrow
For Zane Grey
Body of Novelist of
The Old West Will
Be Cremated
B> the Associated Presa.
PASADENA. Calif., Oct. 24.—Rel
atives and close friends of Zane
Grey, novelist of the old West, will
gather in a mortuary chapel here
tomorrow afternoon to bid him a
last farewell.
At the close of the private funeral
services, his body will be cremated.
The 64-year-old writer, who
thrilled two generations of readers j
with 82 novels and true adventure
stories, died yesterday at his home, |
in nearby Altadena. Because no j
physician was in attendance, a post
mortem examination was ordered.
He is survived by his widow, the j
former Lina Elise Roth, whom he '
married in 1905, and three children,
Romer Zane, Betty and Loren.
Noted Editor Has Letter
To Chase the Blues
NEW YORK, Oct. 24 (#).—A yel
lowed old letter from Zane Grey
lies unopened in a famous New York
editor’s desk—unopened, because
Robert H. (Bob) Davis never felt
quite blue enough to look inside.
Mr. Grey, who died yesterday at
Altadena, Calif., penned the letter
with a purpose.
It was Mr. Davis, famed as a
confidante of writers, as a dramatist,
former editor of Munsey’s Magazine,
and presently ‘‘roving’’ writer for
the New York Sun, who gave Mr.
Grey his first professional encour
agement and lifted him from the
which led to the Crawford Notch
highway and safety.
