Heretofore an object illuminated

In a demonstration conducted on

Dr.. Frank Gray and DR.. Hubert E.

the engineers said that the signals

The received picture was not quite
as clear as an ordinary movie, a
slight haze being present, but the
engineers believed that this defect
could be removed by putting more
holes in the scanning disc, that part
OF both the transmitter and receiver
which breaks up the light rays and
aids the television tube in its record

The receiver vas no different than
