Seprte Regultory Body Fvored In Commission's Minority Report Ottw. Differing with the views of his four collegues on the Royl Commission on Ntionl Development in the Arts, Letters nd Sciences, the Montrel civil engineer, Dr. Arthur Surveyer, recommended for Cndin Brodcsting nd Telecsting Control Bord, consisting of five members ppointed by the Governor in Council, with uthority nd jurisdiction over the ctivities of both privtely nd publicly owned brodcsting nd telecsting sttions. This recommendtion ppered in his "Reservtions nd Observtions" ppended to, the Commission's Report, tbled here in the House of Commons erly this month. Dr. Surveyer felt tht the Control Bord he proposed should be given the regulting uthority now held by the CBC Bord of Governors, with the ltter reorgnized into four -member bord of directors chrged with the brodcsting opertions of the CBC only. The Control Bord would be responsible to the Minister of Trnsport, but could be finnced from trnsmitters' nnul license fees, pid by ll brodcsting nd telecsting sttions, he thought. The bord "would be helped in its tsk of insuring dequte progrms nd well-blnced schedule of progrms for Cnd, by Regionl Advisory Councils..." he sid. Of the bord's membership, Surveyer recommended tht it be chirmned by " mn with judicil mind nd brod generl culture to enble him to pprise the qulity of the progrms brodcst or telecst in Cnd," nd tht of the four members under him, three should be suggested to the Governor in Council by the Deprtment of Trnsport, the Cndin Assocition of Brodcsters nd the Cndin Brodcsting Corportion. The fourth, to be selected t rndom, should be n eductor with "prcticl knowledge of pedgogy nd of psychology." The recommendtions in the mjority report of the Commission, covering the right of ppel from decisions of the CBC to the courts by privte sttions nd five-yer period of license tenure insted of the present three. were pproved by Surveyer, with the difference tht in the cse of ppel rights, it would be decisions of the Control Bord which would be contested. The bord would lso hve the power to suspend the license of ny brodcsting sttion for the violtion of regul- tions or orders, fter due wrning hd been given, Surveyer recommended, but discretion should be used by the bord in exercising this. In his 17 -pge minority report on rdio, Surveyer felt tht the demnd for n independent regultory body by the privte sttions ws the min point t issue between them nd the CBC. He sid tht, in ddition to the sttions' representtions to the Commission, the principle of regultory body ws bcked by ssocitions representing the businessmen of the country, while those opposed to it "do not relize ll the implictions of the Brodcsting Act" but fer tht ny chnge might dmge the CBC's progrms. "These voluntry ssocitions," he pointed out, "lso fer Americn progrms nd their dvertising, not relizing tht the CBC is the sole importer, prcticlly, of Americn progrms which re brought into Cnd... It ws Surveyer's opinion tht retining the present system in which regultory powers re vested in the CBC Bord of Governors, but extending to the privte sttions the right of ppel from its decisions, s recommended in the mjority report, would merely chnge the Bord of Governors from "Court of lst instnce" to "Court of first instnce" nd the Court of Ap- pel would inevitbly be prejudiced, hving been clled upon to settle n issue lredy decided upon by the Bord of Governors. "Furthermore," he sid, "the mjority of the questions submitted for ppel would require quick decisions, which no court of justice could be expected to render in time, on ccount of the cumbersome process of lw." In drwing ttention to the pioneering work of the privte sttions in developing rdio in this country before the pssge of the Brodcsting Act, Surveyer emphsized the present importnce of the privte sttions in the ntionl system. Nerly 86% of the sttions in the ntionl system re privtely owned, he sid, mentioning tht the chirmn of the CBC Bord of Governors, in objecting to the demnds of the CAB for network of their own, reveled the importnce of the privte sttions in tht, if the CAB ws permitted network, "the (ntionl) system would, in (Continued on pge 3) -riourin our enih d Seevt.ce Quo- nd ih C

On one point though, there is no dissentient voice, nd tht is the essentil existence of one qulity in ll brodcsting, nd tht qulity is friendliness.

Surveyer, however, did not gree with the CAB's demnds for network or with grnting permission to privte sttions to enter into brodcsting or telecsting greements with Americn networks or sttions, but he suggested tht these points of contention should be referred to the Control Bord for ruling. "It is not contemplted tht the Control Bord would exercise its powers over progrms in n utocrtic mnner," he sid, "but rther tht it should, by persusion nd by discussion with representtives of the brodcsting sttions, rise the generl stndrd of the progrms brodcst in Cnd, for the purpose of fostering ntionl unity, cultivting the rtistic tste of the people, supplying well-blnced entertinment, nd encourging the study of rts, letters nd sciences in generl, nd more prticulrly of the economic nd socil problems which fce the ntion." In nswering the chrge tht the Control Bord he dvocted would "destroy, divide nd duplicte" the ntionl system of the CBC, Surveyer pointed out tht it could not destroy it since "the only difference with present conditions would be tht the Control Bord would tke the plce of the Corportion's Bord of Governors," nor would there be dupliction s "ech body... would hve definite nd seprte functions to fulfil." Divide it would, contended Surveyer, but this would men tht the CBC, "freed from its legisltive nd judicil functions, could concentrte on the opertion of its brodcsting sttions nd of its three networks nd on the production of better nd more vried progrms for rdio s well s television.. "There is gret mount of work to do," concluded Surveyer, "for both the CBC s opertor of n importnt brodcsting system nd for the suggested Control Bord s n rbitrtor between the CBC nd the privte brodcsters nd in inspiring both privtely nd publicly owned sttions in the mtter of developing dequte progrms. Obviously the new Control Bord would be bound to require higher stndrd of progrms from the publicly owned sttions thn from the privtely owned sttions, since the lst nmed hve to ern sufficient revenue to cover expenses while the CBC does not hve to worry bout mking both ends meet... I believe tht the Control Bord suggested would gretly improve the present sitution, not only from the prmount necessity of meting out justice to the competing prties, but lso from the eqully importnt problem of incresing the vriety of progrms, s well s rising their stndrd throughout Cnd."

The sprk ws touched off when Toronto clergymn, Rev. E. J. Tucker, expressed embrrssment over this. Referring to brodcst in the CBL Morning Devotions series, he mentioned one minister who "pryed for crinkly hir for stright-hired girl." Another cleric, Dr. B. R. English, chirmn of the Synod's rdio bord, commented: "I don't think I or ny other member of the Church is very much concerned whether hir is crinkly, curled, rtificil or dyed." Don Wright, former brodcster nd newsmn, who opertes Metropolitn Brodcst Sles nd cts s public reltions dvisor to the Synod, sid so little thought ws being put behind religious brodcsts of most estblished Protestnt Churches tht sttions were beginning to wonder "whether it ws prcticl or desirble to ccept such brodcsts." "I personlly feel shmed the Church hs not done wht it should hve done in this regrd," he sid. "It seems to me the Church is not interested in bringing bout the right type of progress through brodcsting - the type to interest the people nd bring more people into the Church. You cn't get up in front of microphone nd rttle off chpter of the Bible. People re bored with tht stereotyped stuff nd quickly turn to something else. When you go on the ir, gentlemen, remember, you re like jeweller putting his wres in showcse. Tht is just wht you re doing. Mke sure you hve the right goods in tht showcse," he sid. Comments wxed hot nd hevy, with the entire meeting bcking Tucker nd Wright. C. J. Frnk, of Holy Trinity Church, urged the meeting to "eliminte the prechiness in i wht goes out over the ir," nd dded: "Our congregtions hve to suffer it, perhps, but we cn't inflict it on the public." Cnon J. E. Wrd, whose services from St. Stephen's Church hve been 'brodcst over CFRB for mny yers, nd who uthors the CBC Sundy network pro - grm, The Wy of the Spirit, expressed the belief tht "theology ; colleges could do beneficil work in teching students rdio technique becuse brodcsting is!, here to sty." The Synod hs greed to plns,. ccording to Don Wright, to remedy the sitution by hving ll religious brodcsts professionlly produced, screening the clergy so tht only the best possible voices will be used. Wright's office will supervise the preprtion of ll mteril used, in order tht n ceptble stndrd my be mintined. RESEARCH Combine French -English Toronto. - The Penn McLeod reserch office, climing tht it is extremely difficult to determine whether respondents to telephone surveys in Montrel re Frenchspeking, English-speking or bilingul, is now treting the entire Montrel udience s one for rt- ing purposes. Previous prctice hs been to brek it down into English nd French. In further justifiction of the move, McLeod expresses the belief tht French-speking people listen to English progrms nd English-speking people listen to French shows, just s French people go to English movies. McLeod sys tht the result of this new technique is to divide the listening udience firly evenly between French lnguge nd English lnguge sttions. Lst month, the sme reserch office nnounced tht it is now conducting progrm surveys every month in 12 bsic centres: Victori, Vncouver, Clgry, Edmonton, Regin, Ssktoon, Winnipeg, Hmilton, Toronto, Hull, Montrel nd Hlifx.

Four of the five members of the Mssey Commission went on record, in their mjority report, with the view tht government control of rdio in Cnd should be mintined s in the pst. These four commissioners re ll predominntly eductionlists, ech being connected with the dministrtion of university in some cpcity. The fifth member is Dr. Arthur Surveyer, civil engineer, nd he, in his minority report, fvored relxing the CBC's hold on the privte sttions with the estblishment of body to operte independently of the CBC nd the privte sttions in regulting ll rdio. It is rther significnt tht this importnt decision ws subscribed to by four of the five members of the Commission, while the fifth opposed it. Since the mjority group ll cme under the clssifiction of eductors, though the chirmn hs lso been prominent in diplomtic ctivities, it might be sid tht they jointly expressed the view of one segment of society, while the opinion of the fifth, Dr. Surveyer, crried just s much weight s the other four, seeing tht he spoke s civil engineer, or, even more brodly, mn of business. Obviously these people, who hve devoted gret prt of their lives-whether s voction or n voction-to mtters concerning eduction, re well qulified to ssess the country's ssets nd libilities in things culturl. They plced Cnd's culture on tril nd found it wnting. Few, if ny, will disgree tht the people of Cnd hve regrettble lck of interest in better literture, better drm, better music, better pinting. The Rt. Honorble Vincent Mssey, chirmn of the Commission, referred poignntly, in his ddress to the Montrel Cndin Club lst week, to the fct tht this country hs "most of the world's nickel nd, s yet, no ntionl librry." The drmtic disclosure of this lck ws strtling reveltion, but it must lso hve stirred up in mny minds the question of how it cme bout tht renowned leders in eduction nd culturemen nd women like Mr. Mssey nd his confreres on the Commission-hd not used their considerble influence to hve steps tken to fill this void long yers go. It lso gives rise to the question whether these so ble dignosticins of our culturl shortcomings re eqully s competent to prescribe for their remedy. Or, to be pointed, though in no sense lcking in respect for their brillint minds nd dogged devotion to the ntionl wel, is it reson - ;ble to ssume tht continued control (2.4.010 RAM "And now Miss Beuregrd will sing tht populr hill -billy number 'Ace In The Hole'." over ll rdio should be exercised by deprtment of government - or publicly - owned corportion - becuse tht is the recommendtion of the Chncellor of the University of Toronto, the Acting Hed of the History Deprtment of the University of Ssktchewn, the Den of Socil Sciences of Lvl University nd the President of the University of British Columbi? It is no kind of discourtesy to these eminent nd public-spirited citizens to point out tht the very nture of their interests is theoreticl rther thn prcticl. It cn be firly mentioned lso tht the dissenting voice of Dr. Surveyer, the very nture of whose clling, in the field of engineering, points him up essentilly s prcticl person, nd tht he is, in consequence, perhps most fitted to offer logicl nd effective prescription to implement the dignoses of his ssocites. The Mssey Commission spent nerly two yers hering nd exmining 1,200 witnesses. They red 462 briefs from 13 Federl Government institutions, 7 Provincil Governments, 97 ntionl orgniztions, 262 locl bodies nd 35 privte commercil rdio sttions. They conducted 224 meetings. This ws noble effort to perform the prodigious tsk of feeling the pulse of the Cndin public, presumbly to guge their opinion, mong other things, on the future opertions of the CBC. The Commission herd, mong others, from rdio sttions, which wnted the CBC's control strings loosened; from the CBC, which wnted them kept tied; from e performers' unions, which wnted more work t higher fees; from innumerble bodies, ech of which felt its own cuse could be dvnced by some chnge (or no chnge) in the rdio set-up. Yet the Commission is the first to dmit, in its own report, tht "we herd little from the citizen who represented no one but himself." The prmount problem of privte enterprise rdio sttions hs lwys been to get their messge over, not to people who hve personl xe to grind, but to the fourteen million Cndins who re prtners in Cnd, in her government, nd in the vrious ctivities (such s the CBC) which tht government hs creted in their nme. And tht is precisely where we cme in. l Religious Rdio Serious considertion of the qulity (or lck of it) of religious brodcsts ws given by the Anglicn clergy of the Diocese of Toronto t their Synod meeting here this month. As hs been reported elsewhere in this issue, the clergymen were extremely criticl of themselves, nd seemed determined to do something bout the sitution. This stte of ffirs is by no mens confined to the Anglicns or to the Toronto re. Actully it obtins in the cse of most Protestnt religious groups cross the country. For some reson or other, the Ctholics seem more dept t prepring nd presenting cceptble progrms on religious subjects. is in This commendble concern over question which hs lwys been number one problem should be of considerble interest to the conscientious sttion which wnts to perform service to its community by mking time vilble to religious orgniztions, nd still wnts to hold the interest of its listeners. Whether some ssistnce in the preprtion nd presenttion of such brodcsts should be offered by the individul sttions or whether it should be undertken by the sttions' Assocition, the Cndin Assocition of Brodcsters, the desirbility of such id is pprent. Doubtless there re sttions which do mterilly help groups with their progrmming. This pper believes tht ny experience long these lines or even dormnt ides should be pooled for the benefit of the industry. To this end, our news deprtment will be sending out questionnire to try nd determine wht is being done nd wht else might be done to improve this importnt side of brodcsting.

INTERNATIONAL Rdio Down Under By Bob Frncis Cnberr, Austrli.-Potentil rdio sttion owners in Cnd who think they hve tough time getting brodcst license from the CBC should see how hrd it is to get into business in this country. More thn 700 pplicnts re on the witing list right now for licenses to set up new privte st- tions. You could count on one hnd those who re likely to get them, unless Austrli gets new wve bnd lloction. While few bnds do remin vcnt, they're being held for new sttions being built for the Austrlin Brodcsting Commission. When these go into ction, ccording to the ABC, the stteowned system will give the country's listeners 100% coverge. ABC is covering listeners 85% now with 37 sttions, while 101 privte outlets hve coverge sid to be 90%. The smll popultion of 8,000,- 000 is spred thinly over 3,000,- 000 squre miles, so tht trnsmitters must be comprtively powerful. c i c S SELLS in Sfrt ord offers you COMPLETE COVERAGE nd CONSTANT LISTENERSHIP to sell ENGLISH SPEAKING QUEBEC

It seems to boil down to combintion of the U.S. nd British systems. License holders re responsible, through the postmster generl, to Prliment. About 82% of Austrlin homes hve receivers, ccording to recent surveys, nd "hve the wireless on" bout four hours dily, perhps little longer in rurl res. Progrms vry widely over music, drm, sport, mteur hours, news nd the usul nonsense like the udience -prticip- tion progrm which obliged competitor to ride bicycle 569 miles from Sydney to Melbourne, dressed in top ht nd 1910 swimming suit. Perhps the best effort in sport -md country, is sports brodcsting. The ABC's Sturdy fternoon sporting pnel from 12.30 onwrd moves from event to event round the country. The udience is tken from the Sydney rces to rugby mtch in the suburbs, to the Melbourne rces, then footbll gme in Hobrt, bck up to Queenslnd to the Brisbne rce meet, then to trck nd field show elsewhere, nd probbly over to New Zelnd for nother rugger mtch.

ABC -UPT Merger In Sight New York.-A merger of the Americn Brodcsting Compny nd United Prmount Thetres, Inc., ws considered imminent here lst month s top executives of both compnies nnounced plns for the proposed wedding. Finl pprovl, however, hs yet to come from the bords of directors nd shreholders of both compnies nd the Federl Communictions Commission. The new compny, if it comes into being, will be known s Americn Brodcsting - Prmount Thetres, Inc., nd will consist of rdio -television nd thetre division, heded by Robert E. Kintner, now president of ABC, nd Leonrd H. Goldenson, UPT president, respectively. Five directors of ABC will join 13 members of UPT's bord to form the bord of the new compny. ABC is now sid to be $65,000,000 --yer business nd the merger with UPT, leding opertor of thetres throughout the U.S., will bring to ABC dditionl finncil resources nd personnel, it ws reported. Golden - son nd Edwrd J. Noble, chirmn of ABC's bord, sid in joint sttement tht the merger "will insure to the listening nd viewing public the finest rdio nd television progrms" through the introduction of new personlities nd progrms on both rdio nd TV. To effect the union it will be necessry for one of the two compnies to prt with its TV sttion in Chicgo, since n FCC ruling forbids one compny owning two sttions in the sme city. Negotitions between the two compnies for the merger broke down erly lst month nd ppered bout to fll through, but in following tlks n rrngement more cceptble to ABC stock- holders ws reched.

Continuous Rdio Audience E E Mesurements Since 1940 515 Brodview Ave. TORONTO GErrrd 1144 Entries for our first Commercil Writing Contest, 51 of them in ll, re now in the hnds of the six judges, some of whom hve lredy completed their work of mrking. The pnel of judges consists of three gency men, two sponsors nd one free-lnce nnouncer. Ech of the judges hs complete set of entries, identified by key numbers only, nd is mrking ech entry out of possible 100. We hve not specified ny bsis for mrking, s we feel tht truer picture will be obtined if ech judge ssesses ech entry ccording to his own conception of good rdio copy. When the six sets of figures re in, mrks scored by ech entry will be totlled nd reduced to percentge, nd the first prize of $25.00 nd the five book prizes will be sent out to the mngers of the sttions where the winners re employed, who will be sked to mke the presenttions on our behlf. We re hoping tht everything will be clened up in time for the nnouncements of winners to be mde in our next issue. It is some yers now since this pper discontinued its Bever Awrds for distinguished service to Cndin rdio. It felt nd still feels tht such projects re extremely worthy, while there is complete co-opertion from the industry. It does not, however, fvor the type of wrds project where sttions re invited to submit "presenttions" or "brochures" describing their own ctivities. This system, it seems to us, reduces the competition down to the point where the wrd goes to the individul or group of individuls who put up the most impressive presenttion. Finding n equitble bsis for singling out winners, especilly in the progrm field, is difficult. Before ny progrm cn be djudged to hve mde contribution to brodcsting, the first essentil is tht it hs been chosen for listening by t lest resonble sized udience.

www.mericnrdiohistory.com June 20th, 1951 Cndin Brodcster & Telescreen Pge Thirteen ticl commentries nd other types of progrms, ll of which hve the distinction of being the lest listened to. Strnge though it my seem, progrms in the higher culturl brckets which hve been on the ir for yers, hve not shown pprecible increses of udience by ny known mesuring or surveying device. One wrd project, nnounced elsewhere in this issue, which will meet with universl pprovl, is the Murice Rosenfeld Memoril Awrd, which hs been dded to the list of "Cndin Rdio Awrds" of the Cndin Assocition for Adult Eduction. "Rosy," rdio director of Mc - Lren Advertising Co. Ltd., who ws cut off so premturely few months go, ws probbly the Cndin rdio rtist's best friend, nd perpetuting his memory by the nnul presenttion of gold key to "the most promising newcomer to rdio" hs positive, constructive note tht should ppel to the men nd women of rdio s much s it would hve ppeled to Rosy himself. But bove ll else, let's not reduce wrds to the dime dozen level, which they hve reched in the United Sttes, where it seems tht whenever publiction's cir- cultion lgs, they trot out populrity poll of reders, nd some network str devotes the lst 30 seconds of his or her progrm to sitting bck nd tking it, while the rdio editor rttles off cittion (with six mentions of the pper) t bout 200 words minute. Brodcsting from prisons is not too rre in the United Sttes, nd CKBI, Prince Albert, is "proudly procliming" Cndin "first" in this field. Fridy, June 2, will go down in rdio history, not only for the tbling of the Mssey Report, but lso for sports quiz brodcst by CKBI from the Federl Penitentiry in Prince Albert. The two competing tems consisted of three %veil-known P. A. /i 4, Pee/ r ii sports personlities nd three inmtes. Ech tem ws quizzed by CKBI sportscster Nick Roche, nd the Pen tem won hndily! Our correspondent does not imply tht there ws ny connection, but the following Tuesdy two inmtes of Prince Albert's other (Provincil) jil mde good their escpe t two o'clock in the fternoon.

TALENT TRAIL By Tom Briggs Vncouver, s rdio production centre, is probbly mong the best on this continent, nd, if this is so, it rtes high. on worldwide scle lso, becuse of the lmost incessnt high qulity of progrms which hve their origin here. This somewht sweeping sttement is qulified only by the reliztion tht, since there re no lrge sums of money sloshed bout in this city for rdio shows, its productions lck quntity nd the extrvgnce of the so-clled "big time" of Toronto, Montrel, Los Angeles, Chicgo nd New York. Mny snows will no doubt melt before mmmoth show comes out of Vncouver. In the mentime, however, judging from pst performnce, every cent tht does go into its hlf- nd qurter-hour progrms, herd in the Est, will come out s sound entertinment. Consider some of the listening tht hs come from the B.C. cpitol so fr. There were some episodes in Summer Thetre, lst summer's Stge replcement, ll well done. Strtime progrms must be included in such list, long with Rdio Crtoons, Town Meeting in Cnd, nd ' new drm clled The Seven Ses. In ddition there ws n unforgettble series of historicl documentries, They Sw It Hppen. And this is but smll cross-section; no doubt some very fine exmples hve been missed here. - Only in one wy typicl of Vncouver productions, nd tht is in its superb showmnship, is series recently strted under the nme Night Wine. The title seems most pproprite. Herd over the Trns -Cnd network on Tuesdys t 8.30 p.m. (EDT), the progrm hs the rich color of Burgundy, the sprkle of chmpgne, nd n etherel qulity probbly not unlike the bouquet of Chmbertin. This my be prise too high for progrm tht merely consists of n orchestr, singer, script nd commenttor, tied together by pro- ducer. But in comprison with wht hs been done by others with equl component prts, I feel it is wrrnted. The orchestr, directed by Lwrence Wilson, provides the bckground for the musicl tours tht re prt of the progrm's formt. And the music it plys, rrnged by Wilson, hs trnsporting effect which cn mke the listener feel tht he is not STATION ENGINEER WANTED For smll western rdio sttion. Plese stte slry. Box A-96 Cndin Brodcster & Telescreen 1631 Church St., Toronto fr from the South Se islnd being glmorously described. Fortuntely, too, the show is not ll ptterned on moonlight nd sweetness, but tries to ply everything "from ncient dnces of the Inc Indins to Centrl Avenue Brekdown," s the introduction sys. Whether or not the dnces re uthentic does not mtter much s long s they re melodic nd novel. Singer Bobby Hughes does nice job, too. He hs good voice nd by entering into the spirit the show genertes, he mkes his n importnt prt. No pologies need come from this fellow for tking up one's time. But even with this orchestr nd voclist, producer Normn Cmpbell could do no better thn shpe ' better thn ordinry show, if it ws not for brillint script tht runs throughout the entire production. It is this tht chnges the progrm from prde of interesting musicl numbers into hlf-hour word - nd -music trvelogue. The continuity is the key to the progrm's ppel. It tkes time, effort nd no smll mount of imgint on to turn out work like this, but it is so worth while. Unfortuntely, no one ner t hnd seems to know who is responsible for the writing or nnouncing. It my very well be tht I hve lened too fr overbord for Night Wine, but the exggertion, born of comprison with other musicls, is intended to show tht, for me t lest, ny little bit of cretive bility exercised in giving group of musicl numbers, ll bsiclly good, some reson for being brodcst, is well worth it.

This country's highest judicil body upheld the rulings of lower courts nd the Federl Communictions Commission, which gives the mechnicl system of CBS the green light to proceed with color telecsting nd the production nd distribution of the necessry dpters nd converters. Thus ended t lest the first phse of over five yers of investigtion, herings nd legl ction on the prt of the FCC. The controversy strted when the FCC sought to stndrdize nd direct in the public interest wht ws then nturl lthough distnt possibility, television in full color.

The other four members of the Commission recommended tht n independent investigting body should review Cndin TV not lter thn three yers fter the beginning of regulr telecsting, but Dr. Surveyer felt tht "the question of television brodcsting is so importnt tht it deserves thorough study before the CBC begins telecsting." The Control Bord, recommended by him, "could collborte immeditely with the CBC's executives for the purpose of drwing up sound television progrm suitble to Cndin conditions," he sid. RCA Is "Down But Not Out" followed by RCA nd Color Television Inc., developed mechnicl scnning system which, while it could not be received on ordinry sets either in blck -nd-white or color without certin dditions to the sets, it did offer, in the opinion of the FCC, better color reproduction thn ny of the others. The two competing systems, especilly tht of RCA, offered color without involving expense on the prt of set owner, termed n ll -electronic comptible system, but the FCC considered the color inferior. Lst fll, the FCC nnounced tht it hd finlly decided tht the system of CBS would be ccepted s stndrd, RCA hving filed t lst-minute representtions to chnge the Commissioners' minds. This decision, contested by RCA in lower district courts nd finlly in the Supreme Court, remins unchnged. However, the cse for color TV hs not been closed. FCC Chir- mn Wyne Coy repeted lst week the sttement mde often tht the FCC "is under mndte of Congress to encourge new developments in the rdio rt" nd tht, despite its pprovl to CBS, it would continue to consider other color developments. But it is thought tht ny new techniques, before meriting Commission considertion, would hve to incorporte gret improvements over tht of CBS. No one here could predict the immedite future of color TV.

But t the moment it does not pper s if set mnufcturers re going to jump into production over night.
