Esthetics. Vortex is the creation of two San Franciscans: Film Maker Jordan Belson, 32, in charge of visual effects; TV Producer Henry Jacobs, 34, who handles the sound. Working together, the two present "esthetically gratifying audio-visual experiences probably related to basic instincts in the fear of loud noise and the fear of falling." Belson's equipment includes standard slide projectors, rotating prisms, a series of slotted globes, a strobo-scopic flicker machine that has the effect, at 15 flashes per second, of inducing the shakes in some viewers (Belson keeps his flicker to a safe eight flashes...
Smith had some warmup for his new show. Since October 1957, he has appeared on a daily CBS-TV news program as a news analyst, but is limited to a 90-second spot. Behind the News provides him with 30 minutes for the same job. He mixes in film clips, unrehearsed dialogues with special guests, and visual aids with his own commentary. But more time is not enough.

In an additional chamber, corresponding to the lungs, the blood is oxygenated by the conventional film-on-screen method...
...Theater. The white trash became black trash, and caught fire. Anna moved to Broadway, played to packed houses for more than two years (1944-46). But Playwright Yordan, convinced that it was his characters and not their color that had made the play a success, decided that in the film they should change pigmentation again. They did, and somehow the film (1949) seemed rather pallid...
