Commissioner Case, Vice-Chairman of the Commission said that nothing of a pressing nature pended before the Telephone Division at this time and therefore no meeting was held. It was said in another quarter that the Telephone Division would be apt to mark time until returns began coming in from the telephone companies who have been ordered to submit data with regard to routes, contracts, agreements, and so on. Telephone companies have been given until Sept. 1st to furnish this information. XXXXXXXX TELEVISION WITHOUT LENSES VISIBLE THREE SIDES PROMISED Television images, visible in a lighted room, and cap¬ able of being viewed simultaneously by an audience of several dozen persons through a system of wide-angle projection achieved without lenses or prisms, were shown Wednesday in New York by the National Television Corporation at 52 Vanderbilt Avenue. The apparatus was developed under the direction of Arno Zillger, Chief Engineer, and John W. McKay, Vice-President of National Television. The receiver will be ready for manufactur¬ ing this Fall. Mr. McKay said, "provided suitable television broadcast programs are available on the air. " Two models will be made, one a small cabinet for use on the living-room table, incorporating both receiver and picture mechanism. The other a large floor-type machine of the console variety. Space will be available in the large model for instal¬ lation of a sound receiver. The entire radio receiver and picture-producing mechan¬ ism is housed, in a space 13 by 15 by 22 inches. The unit produc¬ ed black and white pictures about six inches square. Operation is from ordinary home-lighting alternating current power and the entire set consumes about as much current as an ordinary electric lamp. A novel picture illuminating lamp, from the rays of which the images are created, is part of the picture machine. The bulb is actuated by the output tube of the ordinary short¬ wave receiver. 11
