of the world were represented in the group as well as all parts of Ontario Pictured here registering are from left to right David Harman Mount Albert Daniel Webster Chatham William Robinson ITS A Womans World By CAROLINE ION The most ambitious project television has undertaken in its five years of operation is less than days away It will be the coverage of the Queens October to visit to Ottawa In technical complexity it will outstrip all former achieve ments These include the docu mentary on the St Lawrence Seaway which was presented last year in the series Wide Wide World and the coverage of the British Empire in Vancouver The biggest from a programming standpoint oc cur on the first and last days of Urn visit the to and from Uplands airport The fact that the route turns and twists live television coverage ex tremely difficult It will take cameras to cover the 13mile route from the airport to Hull These cameras are by mobile TV units On the drive from the airport to Hall there will be seven such mobile units in opera tion A great deal of time spent planning the operation has gone into the grouping and positioning of these Units to ensure maxi mum effectiveness Trinity WMS Groups Plan Thankof f ering The annual ser vice of the Womens Missionary society of Trinity United church will be held in the church hall on Tuesday Oct at pm The three groups the Jun ior Evening Evangeline Evening and afternoon auxiliaries will join for the meeting Mrs be the guest speaker The Afternoon will be the hostess group Mem bers of this group will not meet on the regular date Oct 10 as the meeting has been cancelled because of the Thankoffering service The television technicians explain the operation as follows The producer of each of these Units sitting in his control truck Will monitor the pictures being fed back to him by the cameras Under his control He will select the one he feels is most suitable feed it back via microwave to the master control room in the basement of the Parliament Buildings At the master control center the production coordinator will monitor the pictures being fed wave to mailer back by the units It is he who will decide what picture the viewer will see The whole operation might compared the TV technicians say to a normal threecamera studio setup with the producer switching between three cam eras The Ottawa coverage will be basically the same opera tion enlarged seven times The production coordinator will switch rather than cameras As well as the seven uits there w will he five cameras not con nected by cable to a control truck These will be known as satellite cameras They will operate independently pictures being fed hack to the most accessible control unit by microwave and by micro- One such satellite camera on the Wednesday drive up to Uplands airport will he located at tile new University site Its picture will be slightly over a mile to the con trol unit at Hog Back and beam ed from there the four miles to master control at the Parliament Buildings Special telephones wit be in stalled on trees approximately yards from the first camera of each mobile unit to be used to warn master control of the approach of the royal party The pioduclion coordinator will then have four minutes warning of a switch from one unit to another This timing is based on the timuted speed of eight for the royal car Ratepayers Letter

of our association that two wrongs can not make a right Obviously the first wrong was committed when the panic representing the Town of Newmarket suggested the property beside the Bell Telephone
