E. BUTTERFIELD (By Associated Press) CAMDEN, N. J., Dec, 11.—An- other two years of research have | advanced television from a flick- ering ‘laboratory curiosity to a process beginning to show definite tentertainment possibilities, But generally, it is not yewready for public introduction; neither is there ‘any indication when this stage will be reached. Included in recent advance- ments have been the development of an electrical camera as flexible as a microphone, the use of a greater, number of lines per. _pic- ture ‘and an increase in the num- \ber of frames, or pictures, per second to provide motion picture effect, both resulting in enhanced; detail. ‘Great Progress’ Reported Such are the reactions obtained in a discussion of the present, status of television with W. R. G. Baker, vice president in charge of manufacturing and engineering for RCA Victor, and Dr. Vladimir K. Zworykin, who has been re- sponsible for much of thg develop- ment work in the laboratories here. “From the viewpoint of the re search engineer or physicist, great progress has been made in the so- lution of the fundamental prob- Igms of television,” Mr. Baker hae “but from the engineering standpoint there is still plenty of work, . Two Serious Problems “There are two serious problems that must reach a definite solution before we can even begin to think of. starting television. We must! determine the system to be used in advance, for once we get ‘into television we cannot shift around. ; if.we make a receiver capable of operating on 240 lines, we must} stick to that within _reasonable| limits. “Another thing is programs. .; If we have 16 hours a day from where all of the material will come is something I can’t answer. Research Work Completed “There have been two types of definite advancement. First, the research workers have completed, at least for the present, their work on certain of the basic tools necessary and have turned them over to the design and develop- ‘ment engineers, “Second, the research engineers, having completed tie first step in their work, have been able to turn their attention to the fur- ther improvement of the ideas they have developed and also to the study of new tools., By tools, I mean all the apparatus used in television. “Thus, you can see that a date for; the introduction of television is sométhing that can’t be fore-; cast yet.” But Dr. Zworykin, who has lone 86 much in the development of the kinescope and the icono-; scope, both based on the cathode ray tube, looks at the situation with the eyes of the research man who also has many problems. The! kinescope is the receiving ele-| ment, while the iconoscope is the | transmitting tube that takes pic-' tures of moving objects electric-! ally. 1 Sholtz Relates Story About ONDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1933.

A fire breaking out late last night while a - blizzard howled outside the pavilion, and footsore . contestants rested on their cots, cost the lives of at least three, and injury to many more. From the blazing para- dise of the dance hall where they had plodded many weary weeks amid applause and cheers of supporters, the | thinly clad dancers fled into the biting’ gale.
