THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5. 1928.° TELEVISION IMAGES ARE FAIR IN DETAIL Results Obtained Will De- pend Largely on Efficiency of Reception Apparatus. NEW YORK (P).—Imperfect when eompared to a moving picture, the image | that a broadcast band television re- ceiver will reproduce contains at least # sufficient detail to give a fair indica- tion of what is being transmitted Only the lights and shadows will register, considerable detail beis lost as transmission over a broadcasi st tion must be held within 5,000 cycles. Better pictures can be obtained where the channel is as wide as 20,000 cycles, but because station separation is only 10,000 cycles, & limit must be placed on the emitted signal. In short-wave picture sending wider channels are available. Results obtained will depend largely upon the efficiency of the reception apparatus as well as the ability of the experimenter. To see by radio it is necessary to have a neon tube, a scanning disc turned by a motor and some means of regulating the speed of the motor. Of the various schemes used, engineers recommend from one to three rheostats in the motor lines as the simplest for the amateur. The receiver that feeds the neon tube may be any broadcast set, preferably one with resistance coupled audio amplifi- cation, as this system will pass a wider band of frequencies than transformers. A picture can be seen only when the speed of the receiving motor and its disc s in step, or nearly so, with that at ‘the transmitter. Even then parts of the picture may be lost due to_interference or other causes. The recelved image will be crossed by a series of lines, the number de- pending upon how many holes the disc contains.” In newspaper reproduction, a printed &lcture is made up of a number of dots, their closeness determ- ining the shade. For television, ‘a somewhat similar system is used, except that the dots are transmitted and recelved one after another much like a line is written on & typewriter, but at a high speed. Each dot at the receiver represents a hole in the disc which has passed a ray of light from the neon tube for a fleeting instant. - The intensity of this light, which is ‘governed by the variation of the received signal, will determine whether the dot is dark or light. The dots follow each other so closely that the eye receives the impression of a complete picture. Too much detail must not be ex- pected. Parts of the face, such as the eyes, the lips and the neck, will record 8s shadows, vaguely following the gen- eral outline of the features. Other sections . will Tegister - as ‘open spots. The picturé ‘will be pink, as the glow from the neon tube is that color. HAMMOND LAUDS HOOVER IN ACCEPTING POSITION New Head of Engineers’ Commit- tee Says He Would Serve We™ in Presidency. John Hays Hammond, in accepting the honorary chairmanship of the Dis- trict of Columbia section of the Hoover- for-President engineers’ naf * com= mittee, - said - yesterday . i that Herbert Hoover in the' B “will continue to render,’ and~In E gree even more notable, service to his count nd to Humanity.”™ Mn%fin‘cnd‘mml follows: pride of n:- mining x‘;l";f m:n e o fession that one of the great political parties has, in re- sponse fo irresistible popular demand, nominated as its standard bearer a dis- tinguished member of that profession. “His training and experience as an engineer no less than his admirable character and transcendent ability have enabled Herbert Hoover successfully to earry out the great humanitarian work that has made him one of the world’s most notable benefactors. “In his new field of opportunity, for we feel sure of his election to the pres- idency, Herbert Hoover, engineer, philan- thropist, statesman, will continue to render, and in a degree even pore notable, service to his country and to humanity.” Does Marathon After Meal LATONIA, Ga.

By the Associated Press. The State Department has received a copy of a report of the propaganda ac- tivities of the Communist Internationale, which, it is understood here, has been on public sale in London by Communists for several weeks. The department, how= ever, has not made the booklet public. The report describes the efforts of Communists to appeal to American Ma- rines peing sent to China and Nicaragua and *he carrying on of propaganda work in the vicinity of New York, Philadel- phia and Seattle Navy Yards and parts taken by Communists in various strikes in the country. The report is viewed by some State Department officials as quite ex- aggerating the effect of the propaganda work being done by the Soviet in this country and regard the report itself as a clever piece of propaganda. ‘The State Department maintains one man who devotes his entire time to the accumulation of Russian Soviet propaganda and it is understood that this report was received along with similar_propaganda issued by the Soviet. “review. 10:00—Stormberg-Carlson Sextet. 10:30—Demccratic National Committee. 11:00—Dance music. 422.3—WOR Newark—710 stage; dance. gers. 8:30—Republican National Committee, 9:00—Story hour 11:05—Dance music. 309.1—WABC New York—970 5—Piano duets: chat. .9—CKCL Toronto—840 ‘oronto program. 8:00Half hour of music. 8:30_Surprise program. 9:00—Musical chat.

EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGE IS NOLLE PROSSED C. P. Cumberland Released When Prosecutor Reéports Settlement ~With Complainant. A charge of embezzlement against Charles Percy Cumberland, 31 years | old, of 2033 New Hampshire avenue, who was arrested by the station clerk at police headquarters when he came in to inquire if a warrant had been issued for him, were nolle prossed for lack of prosecution by Assistant United States -Attorney Ralph Given in Police Court yesterday. Given sald he under- stood there had been a settlement be- tween Cumberland and Frank Yeager, 2921 Georgia avenue, the complainant, who had accused him of failing to account for $57 collected on a bread wagon. Cumberland left the employ of Yea- ger, but last Saturday night he called headquarters to see if he was wanted by police. Station Clerk Thomas Eng- lish refused to give him any informa- tion over the phone, and suggested he come in and discuss the case. Cum- berland accepted the invitation, only to find himself under arrest when he arrived at the District Building. R TR W. C. T. U. Stand Indorsed. Special Dispatch to The Star.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., October 5.—Dr. | John C. Dawson, president of Howard College, investigating the reported drug- ging of A. B. Jeffery, a student, in con- | nection with the annual fraternity “rush,” today declared indications point to “outsiders” and not college students as responsible for the Jeffery affair. He expressed belief that arrests would fol- low within 48 hours. Dr. Dawson pointed to the statement of Jeffery that he became semi-con- scious after taking a soft drink with two strangers. Jeffery's statement to the college head added that he met two Howard College students later, while still suffering from the effect of the drug, and was escorted to the P1 Kappa Alpha Fraternity house for a banquet, at which time he was pledged. = i Eatmor Cranberries Now in Season Serve Cranberry Mold Recipe—4 cups cranberries, 2 cups water, 2 cups gran- ulated sugar.
