WISCONSIN REGENTS APPROPRIATE 105,750 FOR TV LABORATORY University of Wisconsin regents recently set up a "closed circuit" television labora¬ tory for teaching and research in the new medium. They appropriated $105,750 for equipment and for remodeling space in the Old Chemical Engineering Building which they assigned for the project. Last May the regents indicated their approval of this project and at the same time authorized the University Radio Committee to work with the State Radio Council on a legislative request for funds to construct « a TV station or stations." The regents f action provides practically all equipment necessary for telecasting ex¬ cept a transmitter. Experimental productions in the "closed circuit" laboratory will be seen in University viewing rooms and will not go out over the air. In June, re¬ gents approved an operating budget of $22,820 for the "closed circuit" laboratory during the 1952-53 year. ' Prof. H. L. Ewbank, chairman of the University of Wisconsin Radio Committee, explained that the laboratory would provide the training necessary to prepare a staff for ulti¬ mate operation of a state TV station or network, if such plans receive legislative approval. Prof. Robert Pooley, who headed a special subcommittee which drew up the "closed cir¬ cuit" proposal, predicted that "television may well prove to be our most economical form of education." He indicated that the research expected to be carried on in the laboratory may be its most inportant function. "There is much that is unknown about this medium that only scientific investigation can determine," he said. The regents* action provided funds for three complete canera "chains," calbe to link studio and viewing rooms, lighting and scenery, monitor receivers, a mobile unit, photographic equipment, and a kinescope recorder and processor.
