  It is demonstrated that the extended technicolor model proposed recently by
Appelquist and Terning has pair of potentially light $U(1)$ Goldstone bosons
coupling to ordinary matter with strength $2m_f\over F_{\pi}$, where $m_f$ is
the mass of the fermion and $F_{\pi} \approx 125\,\GeV$. These Goldstone bosons
could get a mass if the spontaneously broken $U(1)$ symmetries are also
explicitly broken, by physics beyond that specified in the model. An attempt to
break these symmetries by embedding the model into a larger gauge group seems
to be inadequate. The problem is because there are too many representations and
there is a mismatch between the number of condensates and the number of gauge
symmetries broken.
