...target so that the microscope actually looks at the same object from two different angles. The separate images are fed into an ordinary color-TV set, which displays one view in red and the other in green; the set's blue circuitry, ordinarily needed to give the viewer a full spectrum of colors, is disconnected. When a viewer looks at the screen while wearing glasses that have one red and one green lens, he sees a different picture with each eye and they are merged together by his brain into a 3-D image...
...words were sometimes weak, the images and personalities of the committee were vividly etched on a viewer's consciousness as the proceedings continued. The TV cameras enabled Americans for the first tune to see for themselves just how representative this remarkably diverse group of U.S. Representatives really is.

As the flame widens, voice-over narration accompanies a dramatic juxtaposition of images and objects to conjure up for the viewer a reckless driver, an unconcerned citizen littering a street, a man confronted by a bottle-laden table who declares, "One more won't hurt," and another man's gruff refusal to sign a petition to fight pollution. After the map is burned totally black, a wind begins to scatter the ashes and a deep, doom-ridden voice warns: "Great...
...refused to flog. Worst of all, Walters says that if the new host will not do commercials, neither will she. (Walters modestly denies veto power, though she adds: "I have talked some with Dick Wald and Herb Schlosser.") Today's trials are nearly over. Researchers are currently conducting viewer surveys, and by the end of the month, NBC expects to say an official good morning to Jess, Ed, Bill, Doug, Jim, Tom, Tom or Garrick...
