In handling lethal radioactive
substances, checking high-volt-
age breakdowns in switch gear.
and seeing exactly what happens
while controlling furnaces and
boilers, TV is coming into its
own.
Obviously, science has not
overlooked itself in finding new
uses for TV. The TV-microscope,
as used at Christie Cancer Hos
pital, Manchester. is a great
technical advance.
X-ray pictures also can be
vastly improved in brightness

centralized Pathological bureau
to which x-ray pictures requir-
ing specialized diagnosis could be
televised promptly for an expert

The Week in Religion
By Religious News Service

Church groups are reorganiz-
ing their setups with the aim of
greater administrative efficiency.
A number Of denominations,
large and small, acted at recent
national conventions to strength
en- their organizational struc-
lures. In some cases the goal is
not only more effective opera
tions but a larger measure of
democratic control Of church
work.
The General Synod Of the
Evangelical and Reformed
Church, meeting at Tiffin. Ohio,
adopted q plan under which all
regional synods having more
than 5000 members will be urged
to elect full-time presidents.
Plan for Smaller SynodS.
At the same time, the Gen.
eral Synod will encourage small
er synods to organize denomina-
tional areas with full-time
president for each area.
The presidents would super
wise placement and pastoral re-
lations for their synods or areas.
They also would supervise and
promote the work of the church
within their synod or area.
When a full-time executive is
elected. either on the synodical
or area basis. the General Synod
will pay part of the cost Of such
an Office.
DR.. James E. Wagner Of Lam
caster, Pa, the church's presi-
dent, said:
This action reafnrms and
safeguards the basic democratic
genius of the denomination's S
form of government"
At the same time. he added,
the plan for full-time synodical
and area presidents "paves the
way for an enlarged and more
effective administrative and pro-
motional leadership"

Revolution in N

Innovations 10 British
By George Tonsey.

MOTH AfuoTtCoH NSWSPoPSt AUieAuCOs
MANCHESTER, Eng, July 10.
-Television isn't entertainment,
it's a revolution.
It is a scientific leap forward
second only in Importance to
the discovery of. atom energy.
When the British Broadcasting
Corporation injects the idea Of
visual fun and games into Brit
ons' homes it Is only toying with
one small, amusing aspect of the
thing.
The same applies to other
countries where TV is in opera
ton
TeleviSion already is supposed
to have changed the pattern of
human behavior in such coun-
tries. But it hasn't even started
yet.
Private TV Link.
One London banking firm
Glyn Mills-iS building q new
accounts and records headquar-
ters 10 miles out of the city at
Oysterley. Under consideration is
a project for a private TV link
between Osterley and the White
hall Offices of the bank, to give
direct viewing of documents, ac-
counts. checks and signatures
between the remote records
headquarters and the city shop
window"
Successful experiments were
carried out a year ago under a
special license from the post
master general. Not the least i'm
portant aspect of such a system
Is the saving in rent for records
accommodation in the heart of
cities. er
Here is one scientific clue to
solving the problem of con-
gested cities. And when the bank
manager can view your account
by televlsion on his desk you can
have your request for an over
draft refused even more quickly.
There's progress for you!
Educational Advance.
Let's turn to technical educa-
ton. TeleviSion already is well
advanced in this field and prog
reSS should be sensational.
Lengthy experiments in the
televising of surgical operations,
for viewing by more students
than could possibly peer over
the surgeons shoulder, have been
completed at Guys Hospital,
London. Results were most en-
couraging. Will be even more so
when color TV can be used.
Televised operations are poten-
TALLY good for the patient, too.
In case of need a specialist could
'look in" from another city and
take over the operation by re-
mote control!
DR.. Frank H. Cotton, prin-
cipal of the new National College,
of Rubber Technology, at Hollo-
way, London, which is to be OH
cially opened later this year, says
that the building is wired for IN
ternal TV. Mobile TV cameras
can be used to transmit views Of
difficult and complex expert
ments to the maximum number
OF students assembled in a lee
ture theater. !.
This leads us on naturally to

The synod created a Board of

For L. F. K, Washington:
My husband had an assign
ment with SHAPE headquar-
tiers in 1852 and we spent sew
eral months in Paris. At that
time, the Army did not have
housing facilities. However.
they do have very ample ia.
cilities at present, according to
our friends who are still there.
You should take your appli-
ances, such as iron, toaster.
vacuum cleaner. etc. The
weather was cool, even during
the summer months, and it
rains frequently. You will find
suits and sweaters practical.
There is an American school.
Paris is an interesting city and

I wish ! had q dozen pairs
OF hands this very minute
I'd soon put all these things TO rights
The very mischief's In it.
Here's q big washing to be done
One pair Of hands to do 1t.
Sheets, shirts, stockings, coats and
How will / ever get through 1t?
Dinner to get for six or more.
No loaf left DER from Sunday,
And baby cross as he can live
He's always SO on Monday.
'Tis time the meat was in the pot.
The bread was worked for baking.
The clothes were taken from the boil
Oh dear the baby's waking.
Hush baby dear! there. hush-sh-shi

Till could run and get some wood,
To hurry UP the kettle.
Oh dear! oh dearl If Mr.. p. comes

About his tidy mother!
How nice her kitchen used TO be,
Her dinner always ready,

Hush, hush, dear little Freddy!
And then will come some hasty words,
Risht out before I'm thinking
They say that hasty words from wives
Set sober men to drinking.
Now is not that q great idea.
That men should take to shining,
Because a weary, half-sick wife,
Can't always smile so winning?

Had clothes and pocket money, too,
And hours Of leisure double.

THREE REPLIES;
QUERY?


Mrs. w. w. B.. Washington
Mrs. M. A. T.: For using ore
gano: Marinate thick slices Of
tomato, two per serving, in
dressing. cover each slice with
oregano and let stand an hour
before serving Superb salad.
Mrs. p. s.: I have a sweater,
wool back, suede front. and
have washed it in the washing
machine about a dozen times.
1t is in perfect condition.
When almost dry. work leather
between hands like suede
gloves.
For using leftover cake:
My most successful way Of get
ting rid of leftover cake is to
place a piece in serving dish
and pour my hot jello over it.
When served the cake has been
more or less absorbed by the
jello, but gives it body and a
good taste. No cake seems to
be too stale.
I would like a recipe for
chicken shortcake. a rich one,
over@which is poured a butter
gravy. The one I tasted seemed
to be mostly chicken. with just
about enough shortcake to hold
it together.
