Van Doren Loses
His Jobs on Telling
Truth About Quiz
WASHINGTON, UR — Charles
Van Doren, out of one job and
suspended from, another, faced
today a future clouded by his
story of deceiving the public on
a rigged television quiz show.
Within hours of his public tes
timony, Columbia University ac
cepted Van Doren’s offer to re
sign as an assistant professor of
English.
The National Broadcasting Co.,
which suspended Van Doren with
pay last month from a $50,000-a
j year post as commentator, said it
was withholding comment. The
suspension was subject to the out
©ome of the congressional hear
ings.
Van Doren himself was uncer
tain of his .future plans.
To some extent, at least, Van
Doren’s future may depend on
public reaction to his emotion
packed story of accepting help
while winning fame as a scholar
on NBC’s onetime quiz show
“Twenty-One.”
“I was involved, deeply in
volved, in a deception,” he told
the House Legislative Oversight
subcommittee Monday. He added
at another point that “I would
give alm.ost anything I have to |
reverse the course of my life in ,
the last thijee years.”
The immediate reaction was
mixed. Some of the committee |
members praised his action in |
telling the truth at 'last, and urged ;
that his employers wait for pub- j
lie reaction before making any
decision.
The one public interruption
during the hearing was hostile.
The caustic remark by Rep. Ste
ven B. Derounian (R-NY) that an
intelligent adult shouldn’t be
praised for telling the truth
brought a burst of applause.
Yet as the boyish-faced, wavy
haired Van Doren left the hear
ing room, spectators fought their
way through the mass of report
ers to reach his side, shake his
hand, wish him well.
USS Glacier Enroule to Anarclic
BOSTON, GP)—The USS Glacier,
the Navy’s largest icebreaker, is
enroute to the Antarctic to take
part in the fifth consecutive “Op
eration Deepfreeze.” The vessel
left Monday and is due to arrive
in Little America Dec. 10.
Seattle P-I Writer Refuses
Disclose Source of Info,
Ordered To Pay Damages
SEATTLE, GP)—Emmett Watson,
the Post-Intelligencer writer who
refused to disclose the source of
information for one of his col
umns, Monday was ordered to pay
damages to three presons men
tioned in the item.
Because of Watson’s stand on
his source of information, Super
ior Judge Malcolm Douglas held
him in contempt of court last
February and ruled he would not
be allowed to present a defense
in the libel action.
Judge Douglas awarded Mi
chael J. Mitchell $6,000, Arthur
B. Mitchell $3,000 and Arthur L.
Augustine $25.
In their suit, the three had
asked a total of $175,000. The
Post - Intelligencer, the Hearst
Publishing Co., and two Seattle
restaurants had been dismissed
as defendants earlier.
The three men were mentioned
by Watson in a “This Our City”
column item about a burglar
alarm business.
The judge said of the Mitchells
that “the honesty of these men
shines out in the courtroom.” But
he said the reputation of August
ine, an ex-convict, “couldn’t have
been made worse.”
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
«The following letter was re
ceived by the Nugget from Har
old Thompson, who was in Nome
during the Grand Igloo Conven
tion, of which he was the Ser
geant at Arms:
It is needless to say I am glad
to be back at my own little home
at Ketchikan but as I review the
trip I must send this thank you
to the Pioneer Igloo and Auxil
iary No. 1 and to all the finest
people of your city for the most
wonderful cooperation in making
our stay there a happy one and
I assure all of you that the mem
mories of this trip will be dear
to me and fresh in my mind as
long as I live.
Yours was the true hospitality
that Alaskans noted for but mag
nified by a thousand fold by the
good people of Nome. •
Some time after I get back to
normal I shall compose a poem
for the city and people.
Very sincerely,
Harold Thompson
