THEATRE MANAGER SAYS TELEVISION
TO FLASH SOON ON THEATER SCREENS
In the not too far distant iu
ture patrons seated in the Rogef
' and other Shelby hteatres will
probably have their screen enter
tainment interrupted so that ar
important news fvent, then oc
curing. can be flashed on the
screen through the medium oi
television. That is the prediction
ct Hall Houpe manager of the
Rogers and Carolina Theatres.
Latest on television comes from
a demonstration of the war-devel
oped wireless telephone that sim
plifies the network operation of
television. Theatre men gathered
the other day to see this demon
stration of relay towers, which set
at distances of about 40 miles
apart, to really perfect television.
What was more interesting, how
ever, was the statement of a high
ranking army officer that these
towers were developed for the in
vasion of ^Normandy. They were
made in sections and could be
erected in about two hours. These
towers followed the army right
on into Germany so that the al
lied forces had complete tele
phone and teletype system as soon
as the armies moved ahead. Now
this new really system will come
Into the television field to simpli
fy the wrhole method of broadcast
ing.
COMING QUICKLY
This may be a terrific jolt
to those who were predicting it
w/uld take at least five years
or more to cover the nation
with enough relay stations to
make television networks pos
sible. If the army can turn
these towers out on an as
sembly line basis, civilians can
also. This type of construction
erectors can follow as fast as
surveyors pick out high spots
and lawyers sign the ground
leases. High ground is necessary
because the microwaves will
not bend with the curvature of
the earth. These waves travel
in a straight line and are so
scrambled that nobody can pick
them up unless he has the un
scrambling machine at the oth
er end.
Warner Brothers, Metro-Gold
•wyn-Mayer and 20th Century Fox
now have their own television sta
tions, after the relay tower dem
onstration all these major film
prpoducers stated that if necessary,
they would build their own relay
system. Newspapers are also tak
ing a hand in this development.
Hearst controls News Of The Day
which is released by MGM and
that newspaper group now has ap
plication in for a television sta
tion.
Mr. Houpe stated that this sys
tem will be tried out by Western
Union and will be the first tele
vision to be flashed to screens ol
Milk Mixture For
Stomach Ulcers
A recent medical discovery now
bung used by doctors and hospi
tals everywhere has proven unus
ually successful in the treatment
»f stomach ulcers caused fron;
-excess acid. It is a harmless prep
aration yet so effective that in
trany cases the pains of stomach
ulcers disappear almost immedi
ately after it is used. Also recom
mended for gas pains, indigestion
and heartburn due to hyperacidity

would probably run along the east
ern seaboard and possibly pass
through Charlotte, a film exchange
center, and would be relayed to
Shelby by coaxial cable or even
a relay tower here. The units used
on the towers for relay look some
what like an old fashioned dish
pan.
WITH COLOR TOO
Theatre equipment has been per
, fected to the point that when tele
! vision is available the necessary
equipment can be installed in short
order. The new television projec
tors flash the program on the
; screen in the same size and man
1 ner now used for film.
“Yes, well have television
before you know it” said Mr.
Houpe, “and it will be in full
color too. The Columbia Broad
casting System has the color
process that tends to make
television look almost as good
as technicolor. Just give West
• era Union and The American
Telephone and Telegraph Co.
the material to build the lines
and relay stations and we will
have television in Shelby in
the not too far distant future.”
Uprising In Iran
Likely Managed By
Disreputable Element
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 — (JP)—'
j Hussein Ala, newly-arrived Iranian
' Ambassador to the United States,
said today the Azerbaijan uprising
! was engineered by “disreputable
j and discontented elements” who
[ might have infiltrated into Iran
I from the Russian Caucasus.
The ambassador blamed the re
; volt on the continued presence of
i Russian troops in Northwestern
| Iran and said the Iranian govern
ment's insistence on early evacua
! tion of all foreign armed forces
! had been an effort “to avoid some
thing just like this.”

stomach used to be like a "gas

is due to taking INNER-AID. Her
meals agree with her. No gas or
bloat after eating. Headaches and
constipation are gone. “Oh! what

don’t other gas and constipation
sufferers get INNER-AID.
