As with many theatrical under- takings. Kraft Television Theatre has stuck to the motto "The Play's the Thing." Each week.

A A ding works are presented with a.ftne capable yet not no- cessarily "name" out of play- ers. A great porbon of the show'a scripts come to the TV screen by way of the Broadway stage or Hollywood movie lot. Successful novels are also adapted for the program as well as new works 9 by television writers. Since its . inception. Kraft Television The- atre has been buying new material whenever possible. 7; SAW MANY CHANGES Kraft Television Theatre has ' pioneered in many TV improve- ments. Trial and error wohlern solving during the early years has provided a rich background for many video drramatic shows. One "first" for the Rhow - which is of interest from a tech- nical angle -- was the use of the back screen for rear projection of backgrounds. This staging de- i vice which simplified production but often creates a more authen- tic backdrop for the action, has been used extensively on many programs ever since. It was the first to use alternate directors: first to use television's largest studio - and has outgrown , three studios before moving to its '- present home; and was the first V to use the coaxial cable in 1949.

Even with four cameras con- fusion during filming of the show is at a minimum, mobility at a maximum. New facilities permit g up to 14 sets in one program; set i building during the program has been virtually eliminated and fleven when many sets take up all studio floor-space, new equipment enables the producer to hoist en- tire scenes above operating level. Thus action can be televised from virtually any angle.

channel you want. and adjust the brightness and contrast to suit yourself.

4. why is the range of a tele- vision station less than a radio station?

Because of the nature of the electromagnetic waves used in television broadcasting. They are very short wave: that travel in a straight line. and when they reach the horizon they continue off into space instead of being reflected from the upper layers of the atmosphere as the longer radio waves are. The normal range of a television station is as far as the eye can see from the top of the tower.

Television is going to create a whole new batch of sell-appoint ed "experts" in all fields of sports. That is what electronics engine- ers are predicting as they add new refinements to television cani- eras and receivers. They are giv- ing the arm-chair expert a much better picture of what goes on down on the field of play than the man behind first base or on the 50-yard line gets.

New portable equipment for tele- vision pickups of sporting events will produce special picture-ef- fects. Close-up pictures of a foot- ball game. for example, can be

inserted into any one of the four corners of one central- picture, the viewers can see the action in two places at once.

Previously these were accomp- lished by masks and superimpo- sltions which were difficult to con- trol. They can now be electron- ically produced with the new equip- ment.

Other dramatic effects which can be produced are horizontal and vertical ”wipes." One such ef- fect would cnable the viewer to see both the kicker and receiver during a punt play in a football game.
