Three Year Test Proposed For School TV
Albany Republican senator Thomas C. Desmond urged a three year trial period for a single state educational television station. He said the bill would fund capital costs at 500000 and annual operating expenses of 75000 for three years. The proposal follows a Regents push for 975000 to launch two stations and related experimental and unit programs. Desmond asserted the plan protects taxpayers while avoiding a rushed multi station network.
