TRAVELERS HAS "TRIUMPH OF MAN" under a retl umbrella, a filin takes up searvh Inr life TJousED IN A DOMED stone slruc-■-•• ture designed to resemble its red umbrella symbol of insuranee protection, the Travelers Exhibit presents a dioramic portrayal of man's struggles and growth through the ages. Beginning in prehistoric times. the dioramas trace human existence through more than two billion years from the dawn of man to the present. This story, "The Triumph of Man." culminates in an unusual motion picture depicting man"s current explorations in to the reaches of outer space, his current searching for the basis of life itself. Produced by Robert P. Davis of Little Movies. Inc.. the film is projected by a specially designed Reevesound motion picture system. The picture images and ultraviolet stars are received by a dark blue screen wail and ceiling shaped lil<e a half-sphere. Reevesound's projection system consists of a 35mm Norelco FP-20 projector with conventional shutter, a 2500 watt Zeiss Xenosol 11 Below; this sjtccial Reevesound-enfiineered jnojection .system for the Travelers' Pavilion .ihous motion inctures on a dark blue screen wall.

THE GENERAL MOTORS RIDE THROrOFI FITIRAM.\: (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 39) uses existing production facilities, recorders, printing machines and conventional methods for making release prints. The 16mm photographic sound print has two pairs of tracks, one pair in the right-going direction, and one pair in the left-going direction. Each pair of tracks provides separate right-ear and leftear programs, resulting in a full binaural reproducing system free from cross talk between adjacent channels. Forward and reverse running capability of the transport provides a unique solution to the long running time requirement. Reevesound malfunction detectors are placed in fixed locations along the ride's route, while others are mounted on the ride itself to assure maximum reliability. Interspersed among the dioramic Futurama displays are a number of 16mm motion picture images projected by professional Norelco units supplied by Reevesound. Some units are equipped with integral dichroic reflector incandescent light sources, and others with Xetron 450 watt Xenon lamps. Reevesound's installation at the General Motors Pavilion was done in collaboration with the creative and technical staffs of General Motors Styling.

The Reevesoundmodified projector has intermittent start-stop operation, triggered every four minutes by a sensing device signalling the conclusion of the dioramic display one floor below. Two first-surface mirrors, one mounted at the front of the projector mechanism and another located overhead, receive light beams leaving the machine, redirect them to the screen wall, thereby increasing projector distance and image size. The system operates with a 50 watt Fairchild power amplifier. Donald Deskey and .'\ssociates were architects for the Travelers Pavilion, which was constructed by the George .\. Fuller Company.
