by bringing in youth groups as a collaborating audience from the first story conference clear through the screening of the workprint.

The announcement of 8mm sound-onfilm (Fairchild's in our March issue, Eastman in this) is already casting its shadow on further developments. Hal Roach, Sr., has said that Technicolor is perfecting a double-8 magazine that slips into a sound-on-film projector, runs 45 minutes, is turned over to run another 45 and then returned to its source, requiring no rewinding. According to Film Daily (March 23, 1960), "A checkup of his statements threw a deep shadow of doubt over their present accuracy, but did not dispel the possibility of just such a mechanism coming into the market sooner or later, from one source or another. The mechanism is in existence ..." It was developed three years ago by major company technicians working with Motion Picture Research Council engineers. Patent-wise, the mechanism is fully protected. According to the film industry it consists of a magazine "shaped like a thin kidney bean" to fit an especially-designed projection head whose aperture is slotted to receive and travel a 16mm film which has been printed as two 8mm films, combined on 16mm stock. The principle of the double-8 magazine has long been applied in movie Cameras, and multipe picture tracks is older still: Edison had three parallel rows before 1912, the second run in reverse, without changing the position of the reels.
