He added that' farmers and other rural residents are. common beefers about the fact that newspapers reach trtem late, long .after, they've heard the latest news via their radios, but the "fac" editions can conceivably alter that situation, and in ihe nol- too-dislant future. . Trlb will continue its/broadcasts.of the "tabloid tabloids" on Tuesday. Thursday and. Saturday mornings, having set up one of the recorders in its public service offices, across the Loop from the Tower, for rub- berneekers to examine. What they'll see will be the re- corders—about Ihe size of an ordin- ary typewriter—with pages emerg- ing from a slot in the lop of the sel at the rate of an inch a minute, a la newsroom receivers. Columns, for the time being, are a twelfth of an inch narrower than regular news- paper columns. . which run i.wo inches. And "radioed'' onto these columns are news, photos, maps, graphs, comic strips, crossword puz- zles, ads—in fact, ivcrylhing that any newspaper carries. " Rrliiml the Scenes What I hey won't -see. of course, is the scanner isender i. in ihr Trip Tower. News must be specially sel on linotypes that are set lor the thinner columns, and pix have lo be converted into halr-lones. Page proofs are then made on glossy paper, and these pages are placed one after another on a revolving drum associated with the scanner al WGNB's transmitter in the Tower. An electric eye scans each detail of copy and translates each gradation .of black inlo an electrical "Impulse, which in turn is converted into a sound signal and put out over the airwaves by WGNB. Radio signals are picked up through -an FM re- ceiver, and relayed to the "fac re- corder." which in turn passes an electrical impulse through the sen- sitized paper at every point where any gradation of black appears in the original copy. Somewhat similar to clectrd-plni- >ng. action of the electrical impulse on the paper turns it black and thus is obtained a "reasonable facsimile." if not an exact reproduction. Copy of paper reprinted in this manner somewhat resembles Ihe product of photo-offset processes. New:machines, now on order, will triple speed of the present and per- mit a larger page of II'a x 12 inches, with transmission of 2tt square inches of printed matter h minute on lap in the near future. ntvMaml — Vein Piibble.

This new scries of transcribed half-hour programs is more than just a collection of the best mystery dramas ever produced—either live or recorded. For it represents a new idea in electrical transcriptions—the idea that a transcribed show's - budget should malch ''live" show budgets. As a result, "Murder At Midnight"' bows to no other program on the air. Top-notch writers, actors, directors and producers have collaborated on this new recorded show. Top-notch engi- neering Skill has recorded it. No expense has been spared to make it—vet it's offered at a price 1/2 to .1/3- lower than vou'd expect. And. the result is a witch's broth of shivers and suspense that will knock your audience for a ghoul! TOP NOTCH WWTMS- ROBERT .NEWMAN 'Inner Sumcmiiii.
