The needles in these modern reproducers are set at the factory, and cannot be adjusted. The simplest method, I might add, would be to fit Miss Howard's recording to these needle adjustments, which, I might add also, have probably been made by engineers with perhaps more thoroughgoing engineering degrees than those passed out at Miss Porter's select school at Farmington...

It is up to FCC to decide whether color shall be introduced now, with mechanical television, or whether it must wait on all electronic development. Until FCC makes up its mind, few want to buy a television set, quite apart from the cost-from...
