absence of mechanized units has greatly simplified maintenance, and the completely quiet functioning of all moving parts has helped increase the efficiency of the cameraman.

Acknowledgment The author would like to acknowledge the sponsorship of this pilot model by Churchill-Wexler Film Productions whose staff, together with Lee R. Richardson, of the Richardson Camera Co.. contributed through cooperation in technical consultations. The author is also grateful for the suggestions and encouragement of all those members of the animation industry who have shown interest in this new project. E. H.
