 in 7 Min. q See.
By FRANK E. CAREY

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-lR-1r just two minutes and 21 seconds the complete text of Gone With The Wind'-1 CAT printed pages was sent by radio-elevision across three miles of Washington today
 It was a demonstration of Ul- trafax, new high speed commun- ications method. A, picture of the page is flashed by the transmitter and-at the receiving end-is copied cn microfilm.
 officials of the radio corpora ton of America, one of the pro- ducers of Ultrafax, said develop ment of the microfilm would re- uulre about five minutes, and the developed film could then be view ed immediately.
 David Sarnoff, RIGA president, termed Ultrafax "as significant a milestone in the field of commun- ications as was the splitting of the atom in the world of energy
 Tcday's demonstration was ar ranged at the Library of Congress, where a receiver was installed three miles from the transmission point.
 Ultrafa.., developed by RAGS laboratories in cooperation with Eastman Kodak Co., and the Na- tional Broadcasting Co., is des- cribed as working this way.
 Material to be transmitted is scanned" by a special television camera which transmits it at the rate of 30 pictures a second.
 On the receiving end, an ap- paratus translates the televised signals into impulses of light that are recorded on motion picture finn or photographic paper.
 4 war-developed system of high speed film processing is used to de- liver a single frame ready for printing or projecting ln 45 sec- onds.
 RIGA said the transmissions could be relayed any distance across the country by using the commercial relay towers which are being erect cd for a nationwide television net work.
 Our armed services said Sar- nof1 certainly can appreciate the value of this new system of high speed communications.
 Tn the busiest days of the war, the signal center at theR Pentagon Building handled as may as ten million words in 24 hours
 With Ultrafax, this load could te handled in ten minutes from one transmitter, and in one minute using ten transmitters.

ly as "The Will Rogers of the

arts. The results of his pioneer
ing work are showing them
selves in the concert field where
the "solemnity only" idea is
yielding ground to the more in
~teresting combination original
ed by Mr.. Scott.
The value of a new art form
is often estimated by the impor-
lance accorded it in the field OF
education and DR.. Alton O'Steen,
dean of music at the University
of Alabama, after hearing Scott,
exclaimed, His expert blend OF
music and humor are long over
due on the concert stage. He
will, / am afraid, win more con-
verts to serious music than all
our concert courses" One uni
versity president said that in his
opinion SCOTS concert is the
greatest single contribution to
the advancement of music and
art and humor in America to-
day"
Mr.. Scott is not only a brilliant
interpreter of Chopin and List,
but an authority on popular
styles and rythms as well.
His first Carnegie Hall con-
cert was such an uproarous sue
cess that Kyle Crichton, fore
most celebrity critic, in a feature
article and review of the re-
cital for Golfers magazine said,
He literally reduces the patrons
to hysteria with a new form of
art" Life magazine went to
Carnegie Hall on the occasion of
his recent return and. subse-
quently devoted the better part
of three pages of pictures and
text descriptive of the event.
Henry SCOTS concert is at one
and the same time a thought pro-
viding and hilarious musical ex-
perience long to be remembered.
