SCHENECTADY, N. Y, May 2s:-A
vide panorama of the future possibili-
ties OF television in peace and war was
unrolled today by DR.. T.. F. w. Alex
anderson, whose predictions were In
spired by the world pree1iere of life size
television images thrown on a theatef
screen.
Or. Alexanderson, pioneer OF tele-
vision development, vtsioned the appn-
cation of television to manifold uses
from entertainment as an adjunct to the
home radio and q supplement to tne
talking pictures of the movie house TO
the grim business Of spying out an enc
mys position for an army and directing
crewless bombing planes.
He made his predictions after a group
Of singers, dancers and other entertain
ers, a mile away, had performed for an
audience which included scientists and
newspaper correspondents. For the nrst
time the images appeared life size on
q 6-foot screen. Heretofore televlslon
images have been shown In miniature
on q 14-inch screen.
Home Sets Possible.
whether the general public will be
enough interested or get enough out OF
television to make 1t possible to COM
mercialize home sets for telev1sion Is
still to be seen," he said.
"The possibilities for the new inven-
tions in this art of television are In
spring. Just think of it-when you can
put an electric eye wherever you wish
and see through this eye just as II you
were there.
IAN airplane with q news reporter
will fly to see whatever Is OF interest,
and the whole theater audience Will be
with him, seeing what he sees, and yet
the audience will be perfectly safe ana
comfortable.
"Or what viii this mean in the wars
of the future, when q staff oficer can
see the enemy through the television
ewes of his scouting planes, or when
they can send a bombing plane without
a man on board which can see the tar
get and be steered by radio up to the
moment when 1t hits?
Aviation Aid.
"Or what will it mean for peaceful
aviation, when ships Of the air approach
O harbor in fog, take on pilot, not
from q little craft that comes to meet
the ship, but by television, whereby
the trained eyes Of the pilot, function
ing by television, will guide the ship TO
the airport.
perhaps am letting my imagination
run riot, but to show the seriousness OF
nv conviction I am leaving to sail 70
Panama on the airplane carrier Sara
toga at the invitation Of the Navy to
study some of the practical conditions
FOR the realization Of such ideas"
