The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1954-03-11

At the present time, Mr.. Effinger
stated, National Color TV network
programs are being broadcast from
time to time by both the National
Broadcasting Company and the
Columbia Broadcasting System, with
their programs originating in New
York and Los Angeles.
Discussing the cost of Color TV
sets, the speaker stated that today
the industry estimates that the cost
will run anywhere from $500 up for
a 1912 inch screen set, plus 5000 for
one years service contract. But he
was quick to add that like all infants,
Color TV is bound to mature, result
ing in larger screens, fewer parts,
lower prices and more and better
programs.
Answering the often asked ques-
tons: SHOULD l buy black and white
now or wait for color? should l buy
now, or should l wait for lower prices
and larger screens" Mr. Effinger
said: "Color TV must be introduced
in such a way that the public will
have an opportunity to measure the
merits of Color TV versus Black and
White TV, or the movies, or any
other form of entertainment, and
particularly in terms of the cost of
such services.
GAS all people respond differently
to a given situation, your own
answer to the question must nee
essarily be made by you after you've
seen a side-by side comparison of
color versus black and white In
the cae of monochrome, you'll see
excellent picture reproductions on
large screens at amazingly low
prices. In the case of color, you'll
see the same images on smaller
screens, at high prices, but in warm,
natural color, in the exciting realism
of live performance.
"Then, to borrow an old cliche, =
you pays your money and you takes
your choice"
The speaker then gave some inter

"The Story of Color Television"
was the program subject at the regu-
lar luncheon meeting of the Kiwanis
Club, held at the Hotel Alexander
yesterday. The guest speaker was
Joseph Efinger, National Color Tele-
vision Sales Manager of the Elec-
tronics Department of the General
Electric Company.
President Herman B. Hopes pre-
sided and introduced Richard Grum-
bacher, General Chairman of the
1854 Red Cross Fund and Member
ship Drive, who appealed to the
members for their full support dur
ing the campaign, which closes on
Monday.
\ The program was arranged by the
Achievement and Publicity Commit
tee, of which H. S. Douglas is chair
man, and the speaker was introduced
by lies" Askey, a member of the
committee.
Stating that Color TV is here as
far as official Federal Communica-
tions Commission approval is con-
cerned; as far as limited network
broadcasting is concerned; and as far
as limited received production is con-
cerned, Mr.. Effinger pointed out that
while it is still an infant, it is bound
to grow.
In this connection, he briefly re-
ferred to the history of both radio
and black and white TV. "Since
1922" he said, when radio station
; KDKA and 30 other radio stations
began operating, the number of sta
lions increased annually, until today,
2,636 radio stations are on the air =
! that is an average of about 85 new
stations a year"
| Turning then to black and white
TV, the speaker stated that in 1943
there were only 4 commercial TV
stations operating, but 9 years later,
at the end of 1852, there were 129
TV stations in operation and in 1858
there were total of 344.
Coming then to Color TV, Mr.. Eff
finger told his audience that although
in 1850 the FEC. approved a me-
chanical method of reproducing color
images on TV screens, this system
never really got off the ground and
the first attempt at Color TV seemed
to die aborning.
When this first method failed, DR.
w. R. G. Baker, vice-president and
general manager of General Elec-
tries Electronic Division, who back
in 1910 formed an industry commit
tee 10 develop the present black ano
white TV standards, again stepped
into the breach and as result of his
efforts, the National TV System
Committee was formed with the tor
engineering talent from 81 COM
panies in the electronics field pooling
their ideas and their knowledge.
The object of this committee wa.
to develop system of broadcastine
Color TV that was compatible will
black and white. After its mem
bers had worked for million engi
, neering man-hours, and an invest
ment by the electronics industry O.
ten million dollars, the committee
. in April 1858, demonstrated the new
system to the FEC. and it was final
ly approved in December 1858.
Coming right down to the present
Mr.. Effinger told his audience tina
today - less than three months sine,
/ F. c. c. approved the system Their,
are about 30 stations already equip
ped to transmit network Color pro
. grams. He further stated that it wa
expected that by the end of 1854, 20
stations will be so equipped.
