Would you like to know where television got its start?
The answer is "Passiac, N. J."
The thriving community across the Hudson River from
New York City recently adopted the slogan, "Passiac,
Birthplace of Television," with the official "blessing" of
New, Jersey's Governor Alfred E, Driscoll. x
Passiac's claims are well substantiated. It was in this
New Jersey community that such early TV pioneers as
Dr. Allen B. Du Mont and Lee De Forest did the early
experimental work that laid the foundations for modern
viedo. ...
It was from Passiac that station W2XCD under Dr. Du
Mont's supervision, in 1930, sent out the first regularly
scheduled sight and sound telecasts in history. In a former
pickle works there, the Du Mont organization made the
first commercial receivers in 1938.
The first receiver, incidentally, is still operating, in the
home of Dr. Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr., director of research
for Du Mont laboratories.

homes for adult education
courses. But the hitch is get
ting the money from state legis
latures. Seven of the permits for edu
cational stations have gone to
the New York State Board of
Regents, which proposes a 10-
station state educational net
work most ambitious of the
educational TV plans so far ad'
vanced. Regent Jacob L. Holtz
mann says the fate of the New
York plan will have a profound
effect on other states that have
drawn up plans tor similar state
wide networks.
But the New York plan, call
ing for 3Vs million dollars to
build the 10-station network and
1 million a year to operate it,
faces uncertain prosjects at best
in the State Legislature now In
session.
Some of the other proposed
support for
both sides of the issue, with con
siderable sentiment for giving
commercial permit to educa
tional institutions so they could
use part of their time for spon
sored programs that would pay
part or all of their costs.
