Otterson Addresses Electrical Association The great strides science has made in the last ten years in recording and reproducing sound was demonstrated by John E. Otterson, President of Electrical Research Products, Inc., before an audience of 1,000 at a luncheon of the Electrical Association of New York at the Hotel Astor recently. Mr. Otterson showed how the entire range of sound audible to the human ear — namely, the frequencies from 50 to 10,000 cycles per second — can now be recorded and preserved and likewise reproduced again with complete fidelity. The scientific achievements which have made this possible, he pointed out, were largely the result of research by engineers of Bell Telephone Laboratories. This research, Mr. Otterson stated, while carried on primarily to improve the art of telephone communication, has actually had a profound effect upon the phonograph, the radio broadcasting and the motion picture industry. Among those who attended were Mr. Will Hays and Mr. Adolph Zukor. BLOCK OUT SOUND FILM SPLICES THIS EASY, EFFECTIVE WAY Jr LACE the film on a special registration block. Coat the film ends, and an Eastman Sound Film Patch, with cement. Apply the patch to the joint. Then pull off the finger tab by which you have been handling the patch . . . and the job is done. Eastman Sound Film Patches, specially designed and made of opaque film, are simple and clean to apply. They obscure a minimum of the sound track and are practically inaudible in projection. Together with the registration block, they constitute a valuable and unique feature of Eastman service.
