HARRISBURG, Pa., May 15.— A. C. Gussey of Landisburg, who, police say, aged his whisky with “a magic fluid” and sold it for a a gallon, was In jail yes- Capitol Radio Service l316_6_.Mt. Pleasant St. NN\W. Among_seizures made by the State police at his farm was one ounce of the “magic fluid.” Gus- sey said eight drops of the fluid were equivalent to aging the liquor for one year. A 50-gallon still and 20 gallons of moonshine also were confiscated. into the home via wired radio in order that a fee for the service may be charged at the recelving end. When television arrives—possibly with the gpan of a generation will_be by radio. A new broadcasting structure will have to be erected to meet its de- mands. Such was the consensus among the radio men. Discuss Technical Problems. Technical problems were discussed | chiefly at the symposium. The advan- tages of a drum-scanning disk of his| own invention were described by C. Prancis Jenkins, the noted Washing- ton inventor and pioneer television ex- perimenter. Mr. Jenkins freely predicts that radio will soon bring into the home what he calls “radiovision re- ception” of such events as _inaugural eeremonies, base ball games, flower fes- tivals and baby parades. More conservative but no less defi- nite convictions about the future of television were expressed by Dr. Alfred N. Goldsmith, the Radio Corporation ©of America’s foremost engineer, whose pper served to open the symposium. Goldsmith said" that the transmis- sion of moving images was by far the most difficult method of radio tran: mission ever seriously proposed or ac. pomplished. Although he himself has demonstrated in his laboratory that recognizable figures can be sent and received over three miles of Dr. Goldsmith showed that a mal 1de of obstacles still stand in the way of the commercial exploitation of tele- vision. g4 He pointed out that wheFeas an sudible broadcasting receiver of today In general will reecive almost any sort ©f telephonic transmission, a teles ¥ision recevier will pick up only the highly individual transmissions ema- Dating from a specific type of trans- mitter of a definite design. In other ‘Wwords, new types of radio sets will have to be marketed for the reception of home television. Naturally, the tele- wision broadcasting stations will also have to be of considerably altered design. Advertising to Pay Costs. Dr. Goldsmith believes that the di- rect costs of television services will be borne by ac >rtising nsors, just as advertisers :ow stage the leading radio gogumz. ‘The chain broadcasting of levision involves a serious technical blem, he sald. It is possible that levision transmission will employ talk- ing motion picture film subjects at the outset of its commercial development. t & dinner preceding the adjourn- t of its three-day convention, the Institute of Radio Engineers awarded Ats 1929 medal of honor to Prof. G. W. Plerce of Harvard University for his eer contributions to radio mxtmer- literature, his work in the field of —Ew-e]ecmcn. and his more recent vestigations in connection with mag- netostriction oscillations. ‘The annual award since 1918 has gone successively to such eminent figures in the radio work as E. H. Armstrong, E. F. W. Alexanderson, Guglielmo Marconi, R. A Fessenden, Lee De Forest, John Stone Stone Mi- chael I. Pupin, G. W. Pickard, Lewis ‘W. Austin and Jonathan Zennick. ‘The Morris M.
