The oxide is removed by heat

oxide to produce carbon mon

Improvement Needed in TV
To Hold Interest of Danes
Br HENRY CRIS
United Press Correspondent
Copenhagen (U.R) As in oth
er parts of Europe, television is
still enough of a novelty in Den
mark to keep many families
watching the few hours of eve
evidence that something besides
novelty will be necessary to hold
this interest in this latest enter
tainment medium.
For example. Hans Malm
stroem and family, living in a
pretty Copenhagen suburb,
would seem to be fairly typical
of Danish, or European, families
with rather recent television con
nections. I know about the Malmstroems
because I spent an evening with
them. Malmstroem, a local film
company executive, took me
home when I suggested I would
like to see a Danish TV family
and what was on the TV screen.
The Malmstroems have given
their new 21-inch TV set a place
of honor in their "old world" liv
ing room. Because the big set
takes up a lot of room, Malm
stroem cut a hole in the wall to
the adjoining glass-enclosed con
servatory and pushed the big
console into it. Consequently, the
set is flush with the living room
wall and, as Mrs. Malmstroem
says, does not steal space from
anybody. To watch, the parents
can sit in their armchairs. The
two little daughters like to sit

displayed in Washington

on the carpet, side-by-side.
The test pattern 'came on be
fore 8 p.m. and the Danish news
was on at 8 sharp. It was a sort
of newsreel showing what was
happening around Copenhagen
and in Denmark.
This was followed by a filmed
excursion around Copenhagen
harbor showing the wharves,
piers and landings, ships coming
in and going out, loading and un
loading, and of course, sea gulls.
The harbor-master appeared in
one long sequence to explain the
workings of the harbor and to
quote statistics.
Longshoremen were shown
working, eating lunch, wiping
their brows. The harbor film had
been on for a half hour when I
noticed that mother had become
restless. The two girls were
pinching each other, and gig
gling. "Stop all that," said father.
"Our visitor is watching tele
vision.
This was the signal for the
visitor to say he had had enough
and that he would not care to
impose on the Malmstroems
much longer. Let's go into town
for dinner, suggested mother,
and father concurred.
On this particular evening
television had failed to hold its
fare.
Technically, television in Den
mark seems to be about as good
as anywhere else. There are
three transmitters in Copen
hagen, Aarhus on Jutland and
Odensee which cover 70 per
cent of Denmark's households. A
fourth will be ready in April to
take in the south of Jutland.
No Immediate Change
The main Copenhagen trans
mitter has 10 kilowatts which is
more than adequate, with a mast
rising 703 feet above sea level on
a 200-foot-high hill. The televi
sion studios are located in Radio
huset, or Radio House, a beauti
ful ultra-modern building in the
heart of Copenhagen, where a
new wing has just been com
pleted to provide more TV space.
State-owned and controlled,
the television branch of Radio
House has neither the financial
means ,nor the necessary show
manship to provide any large
scale improvement of the pro
gramming. Olaf Kjelstrup, dep
uty director of the television
branch, refused to believe that
anybody would want more than
12 hours of TV per week; two
hours each weekday evening. He
has no intention, he said, of in
creasing the present program
time for at least three years.
Copenhagen today carries an
occasional TV play done either
"live" in one tiny studio or re
corded on 66 mm film in the new
adjoining wing; a lot of news-
reels and cultural films; a "cav-

Cut Worst Trees
First, Growers Told
Dixon Springs, 111. (U.R)
The nation's timbr growers have
been cautioned to "cut worst
trees first."
Robert Nelson, University of
Illinois forestry expert, said the
best timber "should be allowed
to grow as long as possible."
Nelson said it "costs very lit
tle more to grow and harvest
a high-quality tree than it does
to grow a low-quality one."
Nelson said the difference in
price for the better timber
"more than makes up for the
difference in effort."
Nelson pointed out that prices
of white oak saw logs, for in
stance, ranged from S18 to S100
per thousand board feet in July,
1956.
That's a big range for the same
kind of tree," Nelson said.
"Quality must have been the de
termining factor."
alcade" of 1,000-foot clips from
new Danish films; occasional TV
film series such as "Mount of
Monte Cristo." rented from the
Commercial IVT of Britain, and
"Inspector Fabian of Scotland
Yard," rented from the British
Broadcasting Company. The last
two are experiments.
"Our public," Kjelstrup said,
with a sigh, "are the ordinary
people. Danish intellectuals
don't think much of television,
you know. They think it's too
common. Maybe it's just as
well."
The "ordinary people" pay as
much as 2,000 kronen (S300) for
a TV set and 50 kronen (S8) per
year for the license that entitles
them to have televison.

Briefs in U.S.
Portland The states of Ore

filed amicus curiae briefs with
the U.S. Supreme Court, support
ting the petition of the National
Hells Canyon association for a
high Court review of the Hells

The briefs were submitted by
Attorney General John J.
O'Connell of Washington, at the
request of Governor Albert Ro

Robert Y. Thornton of Oregon
at the request of Governor Rob

This action is a significant re
versal of the positions of both
states under the administra

late Paul Patterson.
In a statement announcing
the filing of the Washington
State brief, Governor Rosellini
commented:
