Two Norwegian skiers, ('apt. Einar and Capt. KJakan. In this country to meet with American skiers, told how ski troops set the cliarg that blew up the plant, and then skied 490 miles over glacial drift to safety in neutral Sweden. It was the only plant in the world making "b avy water" hi 1943 and Churchill wanted it destroyed. Allied par atroops cooperated, and the bomb wars saved for the allies. This is the time of year when ski cntliusiasts are gathering in the Laurcnttans, in New Hampshire. Massachusetts and Vermont for the most exciting of all winter sports. The Norwegian heroes are 1» re to play with Aim-ricau* and Candians on the ski slopes, and to instruct them in tine points of the jumps. It is good that skiing can again be divorced from war and become once more merely a thrilling outdoor gam- for athletes. —o— Monkind, unlimited:All of us want to see this old world made tatter year by year. We want to so thv people in this world happy, contented, peaceful and law abiding. We want them to Im- healthy people with healthy children. W want everyone to have as many of the good things of life as possible. This is a large order but who know * — maybe some day thv world will l> Just a place. Once upon a time mankind liv <1 in caves. ate uncooked food and had no lauguatfe and men talked by making signs with their hands. Today we have newspapers, books, magazines, radios, tel vision, movies. automobiles, gas and electricity tfl make living more < omfortable. slothing that is made to fit us and to keep us warm instead of wild animal *kin* thrown across our shoulders. Yes. and men have bauded together to build stadiums, swimming pools, parks, highways, railroad-, airlines, churches and to form clubs, lodges and many kinds of social organizations. We've come a long ways from th days of -primitive man but we haven't been so smart, as we might have been. With all our Inventions, our factories, our machinery, our myriads of goods and a rvlcea which man has learned to produce, we still have povarty. unemployment. an economic system that some how Just does not give us the kind of world w all would like to nee .. . Why can't we people work out away to get all these things for ourseiv s? Why can't we make the machines we have invented work for us so there can be full employment, good wages and more leisure time to be spent in self-development and social activities? We don’t pro* as to know how all this can te accomplished. Humbly however we do offer our opinion that it can be done if we poopic want to do it. We have the knowhow and we have th Manpower and the materials. You may read this ami shrug your shoulders, saying it all sounds flue but Ils Just words and any way what cun I do about it?

They also believe that, tn time. It will render ordinary black and white television obsolete. In its press preview.

Color fashion shots, and excerpts from a football gaiue were used tn the demonstration The broadcasting originated in a special studio on the loth floor of the CBS building From there, the electronic impulse traveled through a coaxial cable to the spire of the Chrysler building several blocks away, where a new transmitter is located. A movable directional antenna on the ninth floor of the CBS building picked up the signals broadcast from the Chtysler Tower and fed it directly into the television receiver.
