Heinl Radio-Television News Service 9/13/50 Commission hearings, it would be considered phenomenal if a better system than that of CBS (which has been 10 years in development) can be demonstrated by the Dec. 5 deadline." XXXXXXXXXX TOBEY LEADS CLOSE RACE FOR SENATE RENOMINATION; RECOUNT ASKED Senator Charles W. Tobey (R), of New Hampshire, is leading by a slender margin at this writing (Wed. A.M., Sept. 13) and his opponent in the Republican primary, Wesley Powell, 3^ years old, says he will demand a recount, Powell was formerly Administrative Assistant to Senator Style Bridges of New Hampshire. The vote in 295 precincts out of 297 is as of now, Powell 37, 270, Tobey 38,401. In the campaign Tobey was called a "Truman" Republican, Tobey retorted he voted "for the best interests of New Hampshire and all the people regardless of party." Powell attacked Tobey for his "America first" activities before World War II. But Tobey countered by playing up the endorse¬ ment of him as an internationalist by Philip Willkle, son of the late Wendell L. Willkle. XXXXXXXXXX GOLDMARK BOOSTED TO V-P AS CBS TV COLOR REWARD Dr. Peter C. Goldmark, Director of the CBS laboratories which developed the CBS color television system and the long play¬ ing record, has been appointed Vice President in Charge of Engineer¬ ing Research and Development of the Columbia Broadcasting System. "Dr. Goldmark’s appointment", Frank Stanton, President of CBS said, "is not only a recognition of his outstanding contribu¬ tions in the field of electronics. It also takes cognizance of the fact that color television has now reached a stage of major signif¬ icance in the communications field. The Sept. 1 report of the Federal Communications Commission was a long step toward the final adoption of CBS color television for broadcasting, and the recent arrangement concluded between CBS and Remington Rand for the produc¬ tion of color television equipment for industrial use assures wide¬ spread application of Dr. Goldmark’s work in many other fields." The FCC report gave unqualified approval to the excellence and practicality of the CBS system developed under Dr. Goldmark ’ s supervision, and found it clearly superior to the other systems considered. Dr. Goldmark's work, particularly in color television and long playing records, has earned him a world-wide reputation. He Joined the CBS staff in 1936, and since then has directed the com¬ paratively small but highly skilled laboratory staff which has brought color television to its present advanced state of development.
