The appli- cation is presented “without prejudice to WFBL.” Owns Four Stations. What has happened in Buffalo is that the Buffalo Broadcasting Co., in which » Rev. Clinton H. Churchill is said to be 1he moving spirit, has acquired the own- ership of and is operatigg the four lead- ing local stations, namely, WMAK. WGR. WKEN and WKBW. Station ‘WMAK, sharing time with the Syra-| cuse station, is a member of the Colum- bia chain._and WGR belongs to the National Broadaasting Co. network. Fach of the four stations is on a chan- nel of its own, so that in effect the Ruffalo ecorporation has the use of four wave lengths. ‘Without complaining against the Syracuse station’s share of time, the Buffalo Evening News, which previously submitted and withdrew an application to the commission for a new station, is charging that the corporation is not adequately serving the local listening public since it acquired control and managgement of the four stations. “Programs are being interrupted,” says its application to the commission, “with all kinds of direct advertising announcements.

Buffalo has two other broadcasting atations, but they are small, low-pow- ered affairs, described as being of rela- tively little importance compared with the four others. While the four stations of the cor- Porate group are operated as separate | entities, their single-headed ownership | and control presents a legal question that may or may not bs within the Jurisdiction of the commission. _The matter of program quality is de- cidedly within the commission’s power.
