5 $ "SHOWN BY RADIO First Presentation -- New Yorkers Can See Filths Just Made in California Pittsburgh, Aug. 8.--The world's first demonstration of radio mo- tion pictures was given here to- day at the Laboratories of the Westinghouse Electric and 'Manu- facturing Company. The system worked out by Dr. Frank Conrad of the Westinghouse Com , i8 such that commercial development is considered possible in the near future, Mem may sit in their living rooms in New York and see movies as soon as they have been made in California. Travellers will be able to send back moving pictures of them- selves by radio to their families. In a few months, Westinghouse officers said, regular transmission of motion pictures will begin from Station KDKA here, The apparatus is still in the laboratory stage, but H, P. Davis, vice-president of the Westinghouse Company, under whose direction the demonstration was held, is confident that it will usher in the day when radio owners will pick up movies out of the air.

In receiving the pleture the process was to be reversed. To give the appearance of a movie the pictures must be pre- sented at the rate of sixteen a sec- ond, In the first step of Dr, Con- rad's process, a pencil light tra- verses each picture, or "frame" as it is called, at the rate of sixty times in a sixteenth of a second, This process produces a sixty-line picture as clear as the usual news. + half-tone illustration, e beam of light passing through the film falls upon electric eyes or photo-electric' cell, which is not unlike an oversized incandes- cent lamp, Within the cell, how- ever, is a metal whose electrical resistance varies with the light falling on it, Caeseum, a rare metal, is used in the Westinghouse |. cell, 5 The amount of light falling on this cell determines the amonnt of current passing through it, The result is that each individual beam of light sends an electrical impulse which varies directly according to the amount of light or shade in the film through which it passed. The beams of light have now be- come electrical impulses and are spent on to the broadcasting sta- tion. Here the heams assume defi- nite and varied frequencies, some of which are audible, Dr, Conrad states that these frequencies range from somewhere near 500 to about 60,0000, livelihood, REPAIRING WATCHES OUR SPECIALTY It your Watch is not giving satisfaction we can repair and make it tell the correct time D.

The address will be broadcast. Of the 300 or so papers for dis- cussion in the 15 sections, 26 wil he read hy women. Fourteen of these 26 will be read in the botan- ical section, four in the psychologs ical section, three in the zoological section, two each in the athropo- logical and educational sections, and one in the geological eection. Dame Helen Gwynne-Vaughan will he the President of the special sec- tion dealing with forestry. | Practically all the meetings will |take place in the Glasgow Univer- [sity buildings. One exception to | this rule will be an exhibition of scientific cinematograph filme lent by Imperial Chemical Indus- tries and others, which will include a slow-motion picture of blasting operations, and pictures {llustrat- ing the extraction of steel from iron ore, and the combination of molecules, Another interesting feature will be a discussion on hroadcasting in education, in which Sir Joun Reith, Sir William Bragg, and Sir Oliver Lodge will take part. A model studio will be exhibited in order that visitors mays see the extent to which it is possible for peaple to "project their personal- ity" upon an unseen audience, Girls, we are informed, are not marrying so early as they used to. Still, they are marrying more often. «ON SALE EVERYWHERE--- RUBBER FOR HENRY (New York World) Henry Ford has taken the initial steps in the development to his five- million-acre tract of rubber lands in Brazil. Such an area is nearly as large as the State of Massachusetts, and if it :hould ever be brought up to full production it is estimated that a year's cutput would supply rubber enough for the tircs on 250 million Ford cars. pC Carrier Boys WANTED! for the Oshawa Daily Times High School Boys Preferred Apply - H.
