MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 19. 1960 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. Amplified Image in Public Auditoriums Seen for Future Br HENRY J. BECHTOLD UPI Financial Editor New York - HJPD - The Re publican convention in Chi cago this summer not only chose a nres- ' idential can- d i d a t e but served to mark a new com munica tions era, ac cording to a former s t a te department of ficial. Henry Bechtold Rode rick L. O'Connor, now president ot ttdophor, Inc., said the use of television projector to tnrow images from one end of the vast Chicaeo Interna tional Amphitheatre to the other gave a big boost to the jarge screen, closed-circuit television business.

Use At Convention The two Eidophor projectors at the Chicago convention were set up in the mezzanine opposite the speakers rost rum and projected close-ups on two huge screens 220 smoke-filled feet away, the furthest distance a TV pic ture ever has been projected. This was made possible by a unique design of the Eido phor projector which uses an extremely bright independ ent source of light for pro jection, instead of reflecting the image off a television pic ture tube as in other project ing to O'Connor. Large screen, closed-circuit TV made great strides in the 1950's, and now the next big step will be in color, accord in gto O'Connor. There are only two such systems in the world, O'Con nor said. Philips of Holland has one which is compatible with present system employs a huge screen but is non compatible and can only send a picture 40 to 60 miles. Eidophor and Philips pres ently sently are working on a simultaneous color projector which would result in the first large screen compatible sys tem. O'Connor said the devel opment of such a projector would revolutionize closed circuit television both for theatres and business. He ex pects a laboratory model for demonstration purposes to be ready this winter. Nation-Widt Pitch Such a color system has great potential in many areas, one of the most important ones being product lines. A com plete sales pitch on home fur nishings, clothes, appliances, and cars, among other items, could be given across the na tion at the same time. Art auctions and broadway plays are other great poten tials for color TV. Color also is a vital necessity in the training of pilots. Eidophor, a subsidiary of CIBA Ltd., the International Chemical Company, owns the world's largest mobile color television unit. It includes a 35-foot trailer containing two projectors, four TV cameras a public address system, two large screens and all necessary control equipment. The pro jector weighs 750 pounds and stands 52 feet high. Available On Request The mobile unit is available on request. A successful demonstration of this color system was sponsored by the Department of Health, Edu cation and Welfare in Wash ington this past April. A closed-circuit color program was micro-waved from the Na tional Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, to 350 observers in the department's auditorium in the capitol. Large screen television, in cluding equipment, rose from $2 million business in 1954 to an expected $15.6 million this year, and projections are for this figure to reach $34 million in 1965.

Each article Is a summary of an actual case history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Mrs. M. T. - I want my daughter to be friends with Wendy. Cecil T. - Shes just a brat. Mrs. M. T. - A very dear girlhood friend of mine re cently came to live in our neighborhood after several years residence in England and other countries. Her husband's business has taken the family from place to place, but now they are going to settle in the United States un til their family is grown. My friend has a daughter of 13-just a few months younger than my daughter, Cecile. I am very eager for the two girls to be friends. The other little girl, Wendy, is a lovely child. She speaks three languages and has beau tiful manners. Wendy has always attended private schools and my friend wants her to be one of the girls at a good American public school for a while. She had hoped that Cecile would draw her into the crowd, but my daughter has given up completely after a few half hearted attempts. 1 am very annoyed with her. Cecile T. - All I hear these days is how marvelous Wendy is, but the trouble with grown ups is that they are fooled so easily. Wendy is too-too sweet to my mother, her teacher and other grownups, but she is just a brat when she's with the rest of us. For one thing, she wants to hog the spotlight every sec ond. She keeps telling about the marvelous places she has visited and how she won priz- Wrap-On Juniper es at all the shools she went to in Europe. She says our school is too easy and she's really ready for college - ac cording to our low American standards. Aside from that, all the girls think her English ac cent is affected. Her mother doesn't speak witli that ac cent even though she has liv ed in England many years. The other girls can't stand Wendy and when I'm with her they don't even speak to me. I don't want to lose all my friends because of her. The Council: Mrs. T.'s feel ings in this mutter are quite understandable, but we think it is always a mistake to try to force friendships on chil dren. In fact, it can't be done. The delightful tiling about friendship is that it is an area of free choice. Every child meets hundreds of others in his age group, but selects only a few as friends and maybe one as a bosom chum. Unless the child has chosen bad com panions, it is wise to let him go his own way. Wendy undoubtedly has dif ficult problem of adjustment to American ways. Possibly travel has made her mature in some ways, but she may be socially rather immature. She may have to learn to subdue herself a bit if she wants to be liked by the crowd. Most children have great curiosity about those from different backgrounds and will only be put off if the "outsider" isn't genuin el y friendly. Wendy must have shown in talk and actions that she won't accept being part of the group. Apart from these consider ations, we think Mrs. M. T. can and should attempt to gently modify her daughter's attitude. She should point out that being part of the group isn't the be-all and end all of existence. Some very fine and interesting Individ- but their fricnd:p can be' uals don't fit into a crftvd, valuable just the same. (Copyright 1960, General Features Corp.) kW .... .
