The Talking Machine World, New York, October, 1928 89 Replogle Heads RMA Television Committee To Study Television Practice Now Confronting the Radio Industry Cambridge, Mass., October 3. — D. E. Replogle, well-known engineer and engineering representative of the Raytheon Manufacturing Co., of this city, has accepted the chairmanship of the Committee on Television Standards of the Radio Manufacturers' Association. This Committee has been formed for the purpose of studying the wide range of television practice now confronting the radio industry, the nonde script collection of components, and the loose and often meaningless terms used in attempting to describe television systems. The Committee plans to adopt certain television standards and television terms in bringing definite order out of the present experimental chaos. Definite standards are to be worked on for such features as scanning disks, scanning disk speeds, neon tubes, photo-electric cells, and so on. The members of the Committee have been selected with a view to securing the best representation of present-day television practice. The Alleghany Music Co., Chattanooga, Tenn., has been incorporated with capital stock of $20,000 by George P. Garrett, J. H. Sherill, L. M. Donovan, F. M. Payne and J. F. Finlay.

IN THE Jiffycase Exhibit at the Chicago Radio Show two leading Case Goods Manufacturers revealed the how of Jiffycasing. This demonstration of a new and better manner of packing was a center of interest because it led manufacturers to think of packing in a new light. It showed them a system of packing which though thoroughly scientific, can be handled with utmost economy. It showed them TRADE MARK REGISTERED how, by means of light, tough plywood panels cut to size and quickly assembled — a lighter, sturdier, safer pack is possible — one that stirs respect and goodwill all along the line. Jiffycases are available in all sizes for every ordinary packing need — and for the unusual — a special case designed by our packing engineers can be developed at no extra cost to you.
