The brief order, November 20. left standing a ruling against the Station WAIT by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit on March 20, 1972. The dispute centered on the FCC's clear channel" regulations, which d give designated stations sole use of radio frequencies at night. This system was designed to provide service to remote, sparsely populated areas. Nighttime or skywave" signals go farther than day signals because they bounce back to earth from' the upper atmosphere. Because of this policy, about half of the 4,000 or so broadcasters must cease operating at sundown. WAIT sought a nighttime authorization from the FCC in order to provide additional service to a claimed 4.4 million people in the Chicago area. But because its 820 channel is a Clear channel, the FCC twice rejected the request. WAIT conceded that its proposed signals would interfere somewhat with WBAP, which operates on 820 at Forth Worth, Tex., and with WCCO, Minneapolis, and WGY. Schenectady, N.Y., on adjoining channels. But it contended that there could be no interference in areas which have no broadcast facilities except for these stations, and, further, that the actual interference would be within the limits of the FCC's technical rules. high-powere- The Appeals Court held, never1 theless, that the Commission's refusal to waive its clear channel rule was not devoid of rationality or to be condemned as arbitrary and an abuse of discretion.

In a written opinion issued, November 16, U.S. District Court Judge John H. Pratt ruled that efforts made by HEW and the Departments office of civil rights toward voluntary compliance with the 1964 civil rights act have been unsuccessful in the case of many state and local educational agencies which continue to receive substantial federal funds in violation of the statute." In ruling that the federal government has not properly fulfilled its obligation" to eliminate public school segregation, Pratt ordered HEW officials to confer with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, the accept these feelings in Our culture perpetuates a notion, says the author, that the toughest men are the most successful, and that defying the rule can bring loss of respect by others.
