Free TV Versus Pay TV Is Fierce Controversy

Third Os Five Dispatches By WILLIAM EWALD United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (UP>—The number to call in Bartlesville, Okla., is 5616. A simple order on the telephone will transport the screen of the downtown lyric theatre into any citizen’s living room. Bartlesville, a prosperous town in the heart of the Osage Hills, is the center of the first big fling into pay - in - the - parlor TV. Subscribers will be able to view a number of uninterrupted movies on their TV for $9.50 a month starting in early autumn. TheyfU be brought in by shielded cable, an avenue over which the Federal Communications Commission has no control. Bartlesville is not the scene of a test. It is the scene of a fullfledged business venture. There have been at least two large tests with pay TV—one in Palm Springs, Calif., with wire and the other in Chicago by air. Three Movies A Day Zenith ran the Chicago test in 1951. It installed decoders in 300 sample homes for nothing and gave subscribers the chance to watch 90 movies over 90 days at $1 per movie. The movies were shown three times a day. There were good movies, medium movies and some dogs. The average family spent $3.72 a week on its TV movies. Families watched movies about three times as often as they usually did in theatres. The experiment proved so sucessful that early in the game outside families tried to cheat by listening to the unscrambled sound alone. They gave up when Zenith began scrambling the audio, too. Paramount ran the Palm Springs test in 1953 in 300 picked homes. It was conducted via open wire, a cheap highway for TV programs, but a fairly inefficient one. Open wire goofs when it runs into obstacles. And it sometimes radiates its signal to such an extent that a program can be picked up free. What Test Showed • Nevertheless, Lou Novins, vicepresident of Paramount’s telemeter firm points out that these valuable conclusions were drawn from the test: —The greatest market for pay TV shows is the low income group. —People will pay to watch any kind of uniterrupted movie even if it’s a dog. In Bartlesville. 38 miles of wire are being strung right now on telephone poles by a firm called Vumore Inc, Vumore is a subsidiary of Video Independent Theatres, a chain that operates some 150 movie houses in the Southwest. Bartlesville, headquarters of Phillips Oil,, was chosen because Video Independent owns all four theatres in the town—two conventional, two drive - ins. Its citizens get good TV reception and all three networks—two from nearby Tulsa and one from Muskogee, Okla. It's a jumping town. Back in 1950, its population was 19,228. Now, its estimated more than 30,000 citizens live in Bartlesville. Its median income back in 1950 was $3,573, exceptionally high for the state. The educational level is high and unemployment is low. How Wires Will Work The 38 miles of cable that Vumore is laying will cost about $104,000. Vumore will sell the cable to Southwestern Bell which, in turn, will rent it back to Vumore for $3297 a month. As a studio for beaming its movies, Vumore will use the re-modeled Lyric Theatre • seating capacity: 700). The Lyric has been converted at a cost of $35,000. There are 8000 TV homes in Bartlesville and Vumore hopes to sell to 4000 of them. Actually, the project can operate with 15002000 customers. Originally, Vumore planned to give its customers 13 telemovies a month for $9.50. It has now upped the number of films to 30. It won't charge anything for installation. Some of the movies will be shown currently with the other conventional house in town, some before and some after. Video Independent has permits from 35 other cities in the Southwest, including Tulsa, Oklahoma City and Lubbock, Tex., according to C O. Fulgham. vice president of the theatre chain. He sees pay TV a-coming, but he doesn’t think it means an end to the conventional movie house, "We ll continue to have movie houses,” says Fulgham, “as long as boys and girls want to hold hands.” g- 0 Household Scrapbook I ■ BY ROBERTA LBS ;—— • Scorched Linen Scorch can be removed from linen by cutting a raw onion in half and rubbing the flat side of it on the discolored area; then soak the linen in cold water for several hours.
