OVER THIE
BACK FENCE
BY MARGUERITE FINEFROCK

Hiya Neighbor-What this town
needs is a qualified eXterminator,
one who will guarantee to rid
homes of ants, permanently and
forever, amen! At our house it
has reached the point where were
LAYING bets as to where they will
turn up next, around the sink, in
the sugar bowl or the breadbox,
OF just hit and miss in the cup
board. We've tried all the known
ant killer stuff as well as dozen
other suggestions passed along by
folks who've had fair success with
this, that and the other thing, but
the darned ants keep comm.
Just when we think we have 'em
under control-bingo, they crop
up in new place. The other
day we had eaten half way thru
a sweet roll when We happened to
look at the package it came in
and discovered it was fairly crawl
ing with red ants. And chances
are, that crawly feeling We had
in our stomach after that wasn't
all imagination! SO, if you want
to be good neighbor, please,
pretty please (without sugar) tell
us how to get rid of the darned
things. For no matter what We
do around the house we end up
having ants in our plans!
-Il--|--
We Didn't Have To spend our
nickel for dog biscuits (as we
stated last week) because the
Querulous Quimby delivered -four
of 'em to our desk the other day,
so our money is still intact. But
the guys barking up the wrong
tree when he suggests this hound
eat them! In our diet, they're in
cluded out. Maybe now We'll
spend the nickel for some flea
powder CT a down payment on a
leash. We won't allow Mr.. O.
to foil US at every turn.

Color TeIeviision, Inc.,
Says Il Is Preparing
'Foo!proof' System
BY the Assoeioted Press

Color 1eleVlSlOn, Inc, reported
to the Federal Communications
Commission yesterday that its
color system is "as foolproof as
you can make it" but that the
public should not expect any shift
to rainbow video tomorrow"
The corporation, headquartered
at San Francisco. will officially
demonstrate it's color plan to the
FEC on the West Coast next
month.
In preparation for this, COM
pany witnesses began a detailed
explanation of the operation yes
terday before the commissions
current hearings on whether color
television should be authorized
now.
Commissioner Frieda B. Hen
mock wanted to know, in the event
an authority were issued to CTI,
chow soon would your system be
ready. that is, ready for the aver
age housewife?"
Soon but Not Tomorrow.
Samuel B. Smith, patent attor-
ney and consultant to the COM
pany. replied that I'VE would like
to have it tomorrow, but We can't
have it tomorrow"
! Pressed for a more specific an
swer, Mr.. Smith testified:
1T should be ready for the
manufacturers in six or eight
months"
He explained that a projected
direct viewing tube for the system
has not yet been completed, and
that next months demonstrations
in the West will be on 15-by-20-
inch projection screens.
In previous official tests here the
Columbia Broadcasting System
showed it's color plan on direct
view screens only, and Radio Corp.
of America demonstrated both di-
rect view and projection devices.
Mr.. Smith described the RCA
direct-viewer tube as embryonic"
and said the Columbia system
should be ruled out because it
involves a. motor driven color disc.
He expressed the view that such
disc would limit future improve
ment.
Won't Make Sets Obsolete.
"Our system" said Mr.. Smith,
''is fully compatible with present
black and white operations and
will not obsolete existing sets be-
cause these sets can, without any
change, pick up CTI color broad
casts in black and white"
To receive in color, such sets
would require a converting device,

be capable of tuning in either.
