Radio Marcel
Audience Sees Leader of
Orchestra, Though. He
Is Miles Away.
BY THOMAS G. FORD
United Press staff Correspondent

CCHENECTADY, N. Y, May a.
~ Television combined with radio
gave a new form of theatrical en-
tertainment today at the R. K. o.
Proctor theater.
An orchestra was directed by a
man who could be seen in the i'm
age, yet was miles away.
A vaudeville performer stood on
the stage and gave his act. A few
minutes later he gave the same act
several miles away and the audience
heard it again.
The entire performance was
through tests by the General Elec-
trio Company and was based on a
system devised by DR.. E. F. w. AL
exanderson, consulting engineer of
the General Electric Company and
the Radio Corporation.
/. a S The audience entered the the
L n alter today they saw John Gam
BILE, the musical director, lead the
orchestra. The orchestra members
were at their regular positions in the
pit, but Gamble was present only
in image.
In reality he was standing in front
of a disc in DR.. Alexanderson's stu
dio, several miles away, while the
sounds coming from his orchestra
were relayed to him by telephone.
Other performers who engaged in
this unique and advanced stage OF
entertainment through the air were
Matilda Biglow Russ, a soprano, and
Frank Camadine, harrnonica player
and vaudeville entertainer.
The performers appeared before a
television camera in Dr.. Alexander
sons laboratory at General Elec-
trio plant, many miles from the
downtown theater. Light impulses
of the performer-carrying the i'm
age not only in black and white, but
in the in-between gray shades-were
concerted into electrical impulses or
radio signals and sent out on a
140-meter wave length.
A microphone picked up the ar
lists speech and song, converted in
to electrical impulses, carried to a
short wave transinitter at South
Schenectady and broadcast on a 81
meter wave length.
y Il
ID. D. KEEL, an assistant of the
N engineer, was at the theater.
He received the picture-really the
light impulses-reproduced them on
a small monitor telopticon and
transferred these to light valve,
at which point the light was broken
up to reproduce the image in de-
tail on a Six-foot square.
simultaneously, a second receiver
picked up the sound signal, fed it
into loud speakers, and the waves
were converted into sound.
