Until last spring, when kine- scope facilities were installed at the Office, its ',TV Hour" series was broadcast live from WWJ-TV, Detroit. Every Sunday morning faculty and TV staff members would gather up props and troop into Detroit for the 1 p.m. show. This necessitated an estimated 25,- 000 miles of travel per year. Now Done Here Now this show, along with sev- eral others, is kinescoped at the Office and sent by mail, train and bicycle to TV stations all over the state. Kinescope facilities have en- abled the Office to become an ac- tive production center which de- velops educational programs now viewed over eight commercial sta- tions by a million people per week. The "TV Hour," now in its fifth year, has offered a total of 27 tele- courses on such varied subjects as child psychology, mathematics, physics, photography, medicine, personal finances, geology, politi- cal science, parliamentary pro- cedure, speech and engineering, Offered for non-credit home study, the courses had an enrollment of 11,000 during their first four years. Other 'U' Programs Besides the "TV Hour," the Uni- versity presents the 15-minute "Michigan Report" and the 30- Annual Wage To Be Debated Sigma Rho Tau, National Engi- neering Speaking Society, will de- bate on the guaranteed annual wage at 1:30 p.m. today in Rms. 3K and 3L of the Union. Opposition to the position "Re- solved: The automobile manufac- turers should adopt a guaranteed annual wage" will be the Detroit Institute of Technology and Uni- versity of Detroit. This debate is a continuation of several discussions based on this timely topic in which Sigma Rho Tau has participated this semes- ter. The debate should be of special interest to students planning to enter the Cooley Memorial Essay Contest of the Engineering School, since the topic of the essay is "The Guaranteed Annual Wage." "r- MOTSR CAR PRODUCTION l9I EST. l;l-V, I I f I9IIIIII m i n u t e "Understanding Our World." Prof. Garnet R. Garrison, direc- tor of TV here, sums up the formu- la for a successful educational TV formula as "good teaching plus preparation." "The viewing audience should be as quicl to decry slipshod produc- tions, superficial treatment of con- tent and poorly conceived pro- grams as for programs developed and presented by commercial sta- tions, advertisers and networks," he said. Adjustment Needed He continued, "If ETV is to be a real force for public good, its producers must realize that they cannot transfer the classroom to the TV studio without considerable adjustment . . . adjustment of academic content to a visual me- dium." Since an instructor or guest speaker on the "TV Hour" never uses a script, he is so thoroughly rehearsed that he knows what sub- ject matter he must cover and how much time he has to cover it. Before he goes on the air, he has several conferences with the content editor, the producer-di- rector and the graphics supervi- sor. Movies, sketches, charts, maps, photographs, animate and inani- mate models and short dramas are a few of the visual aids used to in- crease the effectiveness of the shows. Numerous Workers Producing these kinescopes de- mands the full-time work of two producer-directors, a content edi- tor, three engineers, a graphics su- pervisor and thirty part - time w o r k e r s, including announcers, cameramen, writers, staging as- sistants, floor managers and engi- neers. Future plans include the build- ing of the University's own trans- mitter facilities on Channel 26, re- served by the Federal Communi- cations Commission for non-com- mercial telecasting in Ann Arbor. Up until that time, and even after- wards, however, the TV Office in- tends to keep producing kinescopes for its state-wide film network. KNIT LONG SOCKS FOR YOUR BERMUDA SHORTS!

Uhlenbeck, of the physics department has been elected to membership in the Na- tional Academy of Science.. The Academy is an organiation of 50 American scientists who have made "outstanding original contri- butions to the natural sciences." Prof. Uhlenbeck is one of 30 men selected this week for mem- bership in the Academy. He is on leave of absence this semester in the Netherlands, where he holds a visiting lectureship at the In- stitute for Theoretical Physics at Leiden. He is known as the co-discover- er of electron spin, the movement of "satellite" particles located out- stide the nuclei of atoms. An- nounced in 1925, his finding has been described as "one of the more outstanding and far-reaching dis- coveries in modern physics," and as "a cornerstone of modern atom- ic theory." Prof. Uhlenbeck was born in Ba- tavia, Netherlands East Indies, and was educated in the Netherlands. Season tickets for the Drama Season will go on sale at the Lydia Mendelssohn box office at 10 a.m. tomorrow. Tickets for individual perform- ances will go on sale Friday.

Despite hopes for early reunifi- cation stirred in Germany by the Russian concessions on a treaty and an end of occupation in neigh- boring Austria, observers see little chance the Soviets will abandon their position in East Germany. But even without the 16 million persons and the natural resources imprisoned behind the Iron Cur- tain, the German Federal Repub- lic now is one of the firmest pil- lars supporting the European eco- nomy. Vast Defense Production Capacity Although NATO treaty provi- sions provide that she refrain from the manufacture of heavy arma- ments, she has a vast capacity for defense production. The best index of her potential is her zooming output of steel, ma- chinery and automobiles. While the whole economy of Western Germany is enjoying an amazing boom, it is especially strong in these fields. As the charts on the accom- panying map illustrate, West Ger- many now is producing far more cars than did undivided Germany before the war. The 518,160 pas- senger vehicles she manufactured last year' put her in third place in world automobile production, less than 80,000 cars behind Britain's 594,840. In the production of crude steel, West Germany at present is not quite matching the output of the entire Reich before the war, but is rapidly approaching that figure. And this is being accomplished without the immensely valuable Saar basin, which alone turns out 2%/ million tons per year. Crude Steel Production Britain now is the only nation of Western Europe producing more crude steel- than West Germany and the gap between them is rap- idly closing. Germany produced 15,692,400 tons in 1954 to Britain's 16,945,200. There is a possibility West Germany might eclipse Bri- tain this year. Her production fig- ure for January was higher by 71,- 000 tons. Measuring German recovery in more general terms, a recent Uni- ted Nations report said Western Germany's production of invest- ment goods in 1954 was 18 per cent higher than in 1953 and almost four times as large as in 1948. This evidence of Germany's re- surgence is heartening to those looking for a robust ally in Eur- ope, but it portends trouble for others. Some European countries are worried at the moment because the increasing exports from West- ern Germany are becoming an im- portant competitive factor in the world market. The chart shows how they have grown on an aver- age of more than one-half billion dollars a year since 1951. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer ac- knowledged recently that such fears had been expressed to him. Adenauer stated there was no cause for worry. -: t Restaurant and Pizzeria PIZZA IS OUR SPECIALTY 1204 South University 10:30 A.M. to 11 P.M. Closed Saturdays I . It's YOUR day.
