NEW WONDERS OF TELEVISION
NEW YORK, Feb. 25. A demonstration of the television developments at the Bell Telephone laboratories to-day enabled a group of .spectators to witness a Boston cartoonist at work oh a sketch pad. Monitors of the American Physical Society and the American Optical Society were invited to the test. Chas. Bittinger was the. cartoonist and lu's drawings in. Boston were clearly visiblo here.
The kind of screen used was a distinct forward step. It consisted of a large grid-like electric discbarge tube through which luminescene travels rapidly, and i's designed for displaying television images before large audiences. Another new device was one that permitted synchronisation between sending and receiving apparatus. A signal is.no longer used. .
