- 6 - TV Technical Tips No. llj. November, 19£5> By Cecil S. Bidlack, NAEB TV Engineer This column will of necessity be brief and in keeping with the remain¬ der of the November Newsletter . First, the deadline for copy has passed and before we know it another deadline will be staring us in the face. Second, we were traveling twenty-three of October^ thirty- one DAYS WITH ONLY TWO DAYS BETWEEN OCTOBER 4 AND 31 IN THE OFFICE, WHICH IS HARDLY ENOUGH TO GET BACK INTO THE ROUTINE, MUCH LESS GET OUT THIS COLUMN. Briefly, we spent October i{. IN Chicago at the AIEE meeting on Closed Circuit TV, the 5th at Fordham University to discuss their proposed CLOSED CIRCUIT V IDI CON INSTALLATION, AND OCTOBER 6 AND 7 AT THE ! SMPTE MEETING IN LAKE PLACID. A PORTION OF THE MORNING SESSION ON THE 7™ WAS DEVOTED TO EDUCATIONAL TELEVISION WITH PAPERS BY MrS . G . G*. t Broderick of the U.S. Office of Education, Art Hungerford of META, New York City, and Allen DeLand of ETRC. October 10 we spent in Bos¬ ton IN THE VERY FINE STUDIO OF WGBH-T V-Ffl/i . OCTOBER 12-15 WE WERE back in New York attending the Technical Sessions of the Aduio En¬ gineering Society where we presented a paper on the operation of the NAEB Network on the i!|.th.

On our way to Chicago, October 25 we met Ken Christiansen of the South¬ ern Regional Education Board and the Atlanta Schools TV station. October 26-29 we attended the NAEB Convention in Chicago where Al Partridge put us to work as a projectionist.
