NT 50 FEATURE October 24, 1961 A STORY (AND THE MAN WHO MAKES IT) WALKS RIGHT UP TO NBC DOORSTEP A professor walked into the NBC News studios in New York last night (Oct. 23) and said that he was scheduled to appear on a program — but could not remember the program’s name. Dr. Harold C. Urey, Nobel Prize winner in chemistry now with the University of California, soon learned, after a hurried check by NBC Newsmen, that he was scheduled to tape an interview for NBC Radio’s weekend "Monitor ’6l." Dr. Urey was then asked if he would also appear on the WNBC-TV "llth Hour News" program, which was about to go on the air, to discuss the fall-out effects of the latest and largest of the Soviet nuclear tests made that day. In his interview. Dr. Urey said that the fall-out "would come mostly to the United States" and would be "unpleasant, but not critical, not at all. " He added that, as far as he could see, the Russian series of tests had little scientific value. "They intend to frighten us with this, " he said. "I wonder if the Russians are not just a little bit frightened themselves when they behave this way." o PRESS DEPARTMENT, NATIONAL BROADCASTING COMPANY, 30 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA, NEW YORK 20, NEW YORK
