THE MICHIGAN DAILY LRADIOJ By June McKee Television was delved into Tuesday' when Mr. Lawrence visited Prof. Wal- do Abbot's broadcasting class. -Here from the R.C.A. Company to pre- pare for the television demonstra- tion Friday in Hill Auditorium, Mr. Lawrence had much of import to im- part in his interview with Jerome Wiesner, Chief Radio Technician. The intricacies of television lighting, make-up, and illusion-creating he disclosed, and discussed the problems of pick-up, .production expense, andI "vidio" effecting.-. Television, Mr. Lawrence declared, is difficult for those with analytical jobs like sports announcing, and is probably less eye-fatiguing than movies-especially when the subject "looks as well as it listens." He de- scribed the mikes' positions outside camera range, rehearsals that run eight to fifteen times the program length, and heat effects of working under arc-lights. About 3,000 tele- vision sets are on the New York mar- ket, he revealed, and 20,000 in Lon- don, where development first began. Right now, sets retail from $600 down to $200.
