Qft TO 1 M w 3 ..m itist who devised and developed the picture-phone in the Bell labs at Berkeley Height, N. J., said he was convinced the picture- phone would be improved to a point where it could be in stalled in every home and office as separate, optional equipment at a reasonable cost. Distribution Date Unknown He said it would be impossible to predict how soon the equip ment would be made compact enough and cheap ' enough for general distribution. Bell System executives said picture-phones probably would be installed on a rental basis for a monthly fee similar to tele phones. The new invention requires only one telephone voice- wire. Thus, long distance picture phone calls probably would cost about twice the present rate for long distance voice calls. Two by Threa Inches The picture on current model picture-phones ranges up to two by three inches and appears as a miniature TV screen in a metal box-like apparatus which also contains the camera which takes the caller's picture for transmission to the person with whom he is talking. Only the head and shoulders of the persons connected by picture-phone can be seen but fa cial expressions are clear and there is good black and white contrast. V. $895 ' iWL NMUn CMM tus they're Vy .

Van Heusen believes in putting back things the way they were built originally. He's remodeling, for posterity, one of the oldest homes of this area. The house was built by Capt. John Porter in 1771 and remained in possession of his family until Van Heusen bought it. ' Van Heusen, an interior decor ator by trade, said he has dug out seven fireplaces that con nected to a central chimney. But perhaps his greatest find was un covered in the old dining room with butterfly shelves and is made of solid cherry wood. In 1819, the owners decided to sell the house, but there were no takers. They eVen , tried a newspaper advertisement offer ing "a home and a gin mill." The latter was an authentic distillery located just across the street from the house. Alongside were the fields to produce the grain for the gin. Van Heusen will concentrate on the house and will not at tempt a reconstruction of the distillery. f' FUU-FASHIONED m tj; . sweater Renart presents one of th most distinctively new sweaters of the year ... a long raglan ileeve slipon with a tiered neck.
