Device Provides
Third Dimension
Bartlesville, Okla. (IP)
Third dimension can be given
to sounds from conventional
phonographs, radios or tele
vision sets with an inexpen
sive device developed by Jos.
H. Barber, local electronics
techncian and record collec
tor. The electronic device,
.which can be made and sold
for less than $40, includes a
special low-note amplifier
and an additional speaker. It
connects to existing sets by
two wires, and the sound it
transmits approximates the
stereophonic or 3-D sound
used in several motion picture
systems.
Barber has worked on the
special amplifier for several
months. Using the old idea of
dividing sound into segments
and recombining them in lis
teners' ears through selected
circuits. Barber has simpli
fied and reduced the process
to common terms.
The new device is not hi-fi
as some define it, but it can
do things expensive hi-fi sets
cannot do, as Barber's device
restores presence and feeling
lost in recording and trans
mission, according to the inventor.
New York leads the nation
in cabbage raising.
Stand-in Strike On

Kingston, England (IP) A
29-year-old woman is staging

For thousands of years the
two ancient professions of
medicine and pharmacy
have unitedly served the
health of everyone. In or
der that they may do this
properly all physicians and
pharmacists spend years
studying at a college and
must pass a state examina
tion to prove their knowledge.
Recently, untrained per
sons, grasping an opportu
nity to make some quick
money are selling vitamins
and other medicines from
door-to-door. They even
presume to tell people how
to take them., Your health
is not to be trifled with. Be
wise. You are safe -when
