Y. “Regular Service”In Television Is Expected Early Next Month LONDON.—(iT1)—British television j now officially in the experimental j stage, becomes a "regular service" i this month. Dally broadcasts of pictures with sound for experimental purposes were started Oct. 1 by the British Broadcasting corporation from Al exandra palace atop a hill north of London. Officials declared the daily two hour programs were designed for manufacturers and others desiring to demonstrate receiving sets, the theory being that so few sets were in private hands that longer broad casts were needless. Two System* Operating Two systems are being used, Baird Television, ltd., and Marconi E.M.. Television company, ltd. Each has a separate station in the palace under the supervision of the BBC which has been quite strict in observing a neutrality of preference. The dual system was established by the television committee named in the house of commons in May of 1934 with Lord Selsdon as chair man. The idea of dual broadcasting was to permit a free play of ideas leading to a more rapid develop ment of the art. As far back as 1929 BBC per mitted the broadcast of low defini tion television, but there now has been established by the Selsdon committee a minimum definition of 240 lines per picture with a mini mum frequency of 25 pictures per second. Results Simulate Mtovies That means the pictures must be sent in sections of at least 240 lines reproduced 25 times each second, a continuous process which results in a final effect much like moving pictures. The Baird system employs 240 lines; the Marconi is sent in 405 line sections. First public demonstration of high definition television was given during a national radio show in September. The initial experimental pro grams in October were pronounced satisfactory by public and press. Programs were picked up some 10 miles from the studio in busy Fleet street with very little distortion de spite the operation of hundreds of printing presses, telephone and telegraph wires and other electrical disturbances. High Price Bans Purchase Few sets so far have been sold to the public, and a television receiver in London excites as much interest as a cat-whisker crystal radio set in the old days. A price range on receivers of £50 to £120 (about $244 to $586) and more has restricted distribution. Either the Baird or the Marconi sending Impulses can be picked up by the receivers. Baird operates with a moving picture film but can also send di rectly from a spotlight studio. When using the former, the film with a sound track is made of the scene in the studio, and within 30 seconds it is developed and thread ed through the television sending machinery. The Marconi system picks up the scene directly through a television camera, which can be used either in the studio or outside, and broad casts It directly. After many months of lnvestiga ■ tion both in Europe and the United I States, the Selsdon committee de- j elded to Install both systems under I similar circumstances under the i direction of BBC. What the future hold* for Bri j tlsh television ha* been left for I time to decide. Place Grigg Under Bond In Boy’s Death UNCOLNTON, Nov. 4. — J. A. Grigg of Newton was arrested by Patrolman Beard and placed under $2,000 bond pending his trial in which he will be charged with hit and run and manslaughter in the death of Willie Cooper, 19, of Long Shoals, who died Saturday night from injuria* received in an auto mobile accident which occurred near the Lincolnton high school Saturday night. Griggs son came to Lincolnton Sunday afternoon to find out how badly damaged the car was and upon learning of Cooper s death he told officers where they could find his father, according to Mr. Beard's statement, and Mr. Beard himself went to Newton and made the ar rest.

I Behavior Fine As Heavy Vote Cast In County “When folks misbehave and we have to arrest them you put it in the paper,” said Chief Willis last night, “and I think when they be have themselves like they did all day and all night you ought to put that in the paper, too.” And so, here it is.

House Building Important Thing For Any Family COLLEGE STATION. Raleigh Nov. 4 —It take* more than a house to make a home, but Just the Name the house play* a vital role In the life of the family. "The money you Invest In a good home will return, year by year, tt.s full measure of value, dollar for dollar." said Mis* Mamie Whlsnant, State college asslNtant extension specialist in home management. A well built house should last BO or more years, she stated, and the construction of a house is too serious a matter to undertake with out giving it a great, deal of thought and study. Consideration should be given present and future requirements, the advantage, beauty and cost o( all building materials used, the type of house wanted, and the amount of money that can be in vested. There is no exact rule lor deter mining the exact amount of money that a family should put in Its house. Mias Whlxnant said. For a family with a year Income oi $1. 800, twice the amount, or $3,000, is often considered a safe Investment The amount, of course varies In accordance with where the house Is to be built, the type of family to occupy it. and how the family spends the great part of its income, she added. After determining the cost, thr next thing la to aelect a house plan suited to the location and the needs of the family.
