S. A. . Born with the century, the motion picture in- dustry has developed and perfected its unique medium to a degree unrivalled by any other enterprise. From modest beginnings, we have been privileged to witness the remarkable evolution of an entirely new concept in mass entertainment and education. When “talkies” first appeared upon the screen, most of us thought that the movies had reached their ultimate technical development. But in the years that followed, we were to enjoy high fidelity sound, the application of color to films and countless other artistic and mechanical advances. In observing its golden jubilee — Movietime U. 1 e ——————————————————————————————————————————— Motion pictures have brought to all Americans, hitherto reserved for the fortunate years. entertainment few. * By way of celebrating a half century of progress —and in confidence that further progress will be made—the industry has pledged itself to deliver an unparalleled procession of exceptional films during these anniversary months. And the pledge is being met. Juneau's showgoers are enjoying one fine picture after another — and have since the jubilee celebra- tion was announced in late September. Advance bookings reveal that the months ahead promise more of the same. Our heartiest congratulations to the show folks of Hollywood, whose “baby” is fifty years young this year. See you at the movi e0eeeoco0ecececcc0ecec00 QUIET, PLEASE! Boston, the cradle of liberty and the hub of the universe, has come up with a revolutionary idea in radio: an intermission during which the radio audi- ence is invited not to listen. The occasion was a “live” broadcast by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. People up there regard this as a great step forward. So do we. Producers of “live” broadcasts of concerts never have quite solved the intermission problem. They have tried everything from comment on the pro- gram and interviews with celebrities to inspirational talks, uninspiring readings on modern science and other forms of audible hot air. A cardinal principal in radio has been that of keeping the listener from turning off his radio or from switching to another station. The “dead” mike supposedly defies all canons of radio practice. (Bos- ton keeps within the letter by turning on the micro- phone to pick up intermission noises in the lobby.) Unfortunately the old devices intended to keep people glued to their receivers through the intermission of | a concert often proved futile. i Except for the fact that the listener to a broad- cast concert is usually more comfortable than he | would be if he actually were in the hall, he is subject | to similar psychological forces in both instances. When intermission time comes He likes to give his ears a few minutes’ rest and to walk around a bit | or get himself a drink. So the Boston idea of pro- : viding a short period of relaxation has much to Anchorage Bethel Edmonton 8. A. — the industry calls attention to a fruitful fifty recommend it.
