ASA Photographic Standards Board (PSB) IN ACCORDANCE with the recommendation of the Committee on Procedure of the American Standards Association, approved by the Standards Council on January 14, 1953, the name of the Photographic Standards (Correlating) Committee (PS(C)C) has been officially changed to the Photographic Standards Board (PSB). The complete procedures in the development of American Standards were published in the August 1952 Journal, p. 155. Proposed American Standard PH22.75 A and B Windings of 1 6mm Single-Perforated Film THE PROPOSED American Standard on A and B Windings of 1 6mm Single-Perforated Film was published previously in the September 1949 and January 1951 Journal and is again published on the following page for three-month trial and comment. A major manufacturer of equipment using a nonstandard winding took exception to the A winding on spools as specified in the January 1951 draft. Apparently the SMPE 1941 Recommendation upon which the proposal was based was misinterpreted and consequently this winding was reversed. Inasmuch as the demand for A-wound film on spools is small and supplied in the main by one firm, the 16mm and 8mm Motion Pictures Committee agreed to delete this specification entirely. If no adverse comments are received this proposal will be submitted to the ASA Sectional Committee PH22 without further balloting. — H.K. 188 February 1953 Journal of the SMPTE Vol.60
