Chairman Frederick Kappel and includes such prominent executives as Henry Ford II, Roger Blough and Ralph Cordiner. "So I ask you: banish your fears, shed your doubts, renew your hopes.

Kappel in Maine and Vice President Lyndon Johnson in Washington, and although it has already bounced TV programs between the U.S. and Europe, Telstar is only an experimental communications satellite.
