JUDGE WALTER PRITCHARD of Superior court is probably the most affable and accommodating judge for miles around. Newspapermen covering the Baby Teal eviction trial last week found the ‘judge very thoughtful, For instance, there being no jury, he invited the reporters to occupy the vantage point of the jury box. And then, noticing that an electric light was shining in their eyes, he stopped court and had the bailiff turn off the offending light. When people walk into his courtroom, the judge gives them a cheery wave of the arm and a big . smile. Judge Pritchard is known far and wide for- his habit of
not he knows them, and for his absent - mindedness. He ‘shakes
' hands with anyone within reaching distance. And if’
you stick around, he’s likely to grab your hand, start pumping it-and inquiring about your family all over again. - One of the stories about the judge is that he was on the receiving line at.a reception, His wife, according to the story, got in line and when she reached him, he bowed and shook hands with a cheery “Howdy do. How's your husband?” Another yarn they tell on the judge, over around the courthouse, may or may not be true. We wouldn't guar- - antes it. Anyway, the. story has it that he met a woman, shook hands and asked: “How are you?” The woman explained that things werent so good, that she had just returned from a trip to Beott county where she had buried her brother. According to the
"yarn, the judge: who had heard only the reference
to the trip but not the occasion, replied: “Good. . Hope you had a good time.”

By Party.
ALBANY, July 5 10. Parr ganization of the command virtually is completed and Governor Thomas E. Dewey, he party’s presidential nominee, has been assured the backing of a smooth-running and ‘efficient machijfie in his campaign for the presidency, it was reported today. The governor has” been in constant touch with Herbert Brownell Jr, who has been supervising the] reorganization. Brownell told Dewey yesterday of his plans in connection with the 15-man “executive committee of the party's national committee and received Dewey’ approval, Will Name Committee Dewey has insisted that the com‘mittee comprise men and .women from all factions and represent all schools of thought so as to provide a united party. Brownell, it was said, will appoint the committee this week and immediately throw the organization into operation behind Dewey's candidacy. Under Dewey's plan, the executive committee will be “an active body with power to make decisions on campaign strategy. The governor, his friends said, wants “no part of a one-man show.” Reports from New York City that Wendell L. Willkie. may actively support Dewey were welcomed by the governor's. followers here. Dewey's forces have made several overtures to Willkie and have openly invited him to assist in the cam; n. r . “ Week-End off Farm

THE OLD INDIAN sport of running the gantlet| has its modern counterpart. Just step over on monument circle during the evening .rush hour and try to walk past the city bus station. ‘You'll get just the’ sane effect as running the gantlet. Youll find a! hundred or so weary folks, some planted at two-foot | intervals all over the walk, others racing up and down’ the sidewalk inspecting each bus as it arrives. And such a pushing and shoving! If you bruise easily; it's advisable to walk around the east side of the circle rather than to risk life and limb in that crowd. Lots of folks have asked us if something can't be done to’ relieve the situation. “After considering their various suggestions, we think we “have an idea that might! _work—-at least provide partial relief. It is to select
a five or six-foot strip down the sidewalk and paint
it a glaring yellow, just like the paint used on curbs to designate “no parking” areas. At various spots on the yellow strip eould be painted such phrases as, “No Parking,” “Walking lane—do not stand here.” Of course, some folks would not notice the signs or would ignore them, But pedestrians soon would educate them.

threes, and—what is more important—to be asked their advice about the campaign. Further recognition for the key men in the party was foreshadowed in the nominee's first press conference after his return here when he announced that he would confer with Republican governors throughout the country during the next month. Co-operation with the practical political leaders was emphasized as one of Governor Dewey's traits in the campaign which led to his nomination. This was the chief sales talk used by Ed Jaeckle, New York state chairman, and J. Russell Sprague, national committeeman, in pushing their candidate among national committee members at the meeting here in Chicago last January, when the “draft-Dewey” move-. ment was getting well under way. It was an effective approach.
Willkie's Failing FAILURE TO recognize the practical politicians was one of Wendell Willkie's failings, and it came
“~back to ‘mpede-—him-when—he tried-to get-the-nom-+
ination again this year. The hostility toward the 1940 noininee. was “plainly apparent among the practical local leaders at this convention. Mr. Dewey apparently is not going to ‘make that mistake. ~ Nor, does it appear, is he likely to be caught off guard, the heat of campaigning, with loose and thoughtless cracks such as Mr. Willkie made here’in Illinois at the beginning of his own campaign in 1940. The Willkie campaign had certain aspects of amateurism, which was natural, considering that he was new to politics. So.did_the campaign of Alf M. Landon of Kansas, the first to try to unseat Mr. Roosevelt. The Dewey technique is professional, and the Democrats ma find it troublesome.

2 Year Delay After War Seen Until Television Is General: ~ Indianapolis Slated fo Form Part of Nation-Wide Network
(Second of a Series)
By DALE MF} McFEATTERS « Seripps-Howard Staft Writer
It will take -six. months. to a year after the war to
ceivers, It will be a year 7 18
‘ ménths before transmitting
facilities can be built. : This means that, unless you live in or near one of the six cities which now have comme;-
“cial television stations, it will be
least a year and more likely two years after production of sets and transmittprs begins before you can enjoy television in your home. . * Indianapolis is scheduled to be apart of an eventual nationwide television network. Television engineers envision a chain of automatic relays carrying programs from New York through
Pennsylvania and Ohio and across
Indiana to Indianapolis. A survey by the Radio Corp. of America, based on electrically
“equipped homes, indicates there
is a potential market for more
‘than 173,000 television receivers °
within the broadcasting radius of Indianapolis.
Nine Stations Operate The first television sets will be-
sold in, and initial network ex-
pansion will spring from areas around New York, Phiadelphia,

be. Used for television transmission because of the high frequencies employed. For.the same reason, existing radio network: fa cilities can’t be used. The American Telephone and Telegraph Co. has developed what is called coaxial cable, capable of carrying television's high frequencies, The company plans to span the continent with this cable within the next few years, pro- - viding vastly expanded telephone commuhication as well as television transmission.
Program Laid Out
In the first year after the war, A. T. & T. tentatively plans to
and Hollywood, where nine sta- . lok New York and Washington.
tions are now in operation. In New York are the National Broadcasting Co.'s WNBT, Columbia, Broadcasting’'s WCBW and Station WABD of Allen B. laboratories. = Chicago has Zenith Radio's WTZR and Balaban & Katz’ KBKB. In Philadelphia is _Philco’s WPTZ; in Schenectady, General
..Electric's WRGB. The Milwau-
kee Journal operates WMJT, and the Don Lee Broadcasting system has KTSL in Hollywood. As of June 6, 43 applications to operate commercial stations in 22 other cities were on file with the federal communications commission. These cities are: Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Washington, Baltimore, Buffalo, Boston, Detroit, Rochester, Hartford, St. Louis, New Orleans, Jacksonville, Denver, Oklahoma City, Omaha, Salt Lake City, Spokane and San Francisco, Los Angeles, Riverside and Stockton, Cal. ‘Networks’ Are Planned
In addition applications have been filed with the FCC for experimental television stations in Albuquerque, Chicago, Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Jamaica,
N.Y. Charleston, W. Va, and -
Camden, N. J. Many: other cities are expected to hop on the television “bandwagon” after a relay system has been set up to carry network programs throughout the country. The General Electric Co. estimates that 18 months after construction of equipment starts a minimum: of 40 active stations will -be serving a population of 30,000;000. Within five years, the com-
_pany's engineers predict, 100 active stations will cover areas of
67,000,000 population, Thomas F. Joyce, manager of the radio, phonograph and television department of RCA Victor, predicts that in about five years
after commercialization of tele-.
vision, transmitters will be located in 157 key cities, serving 72,000,000 peaple. ‘Distribution’ Trouble When television service is available in this vast area, Mr. Joyce said, receiver sales should total | approximately 2,500,000 a year at an average retail price of - $200, based on 1940 costs. Television being of relatively short range, there must be a means of conducting its signals from the point of origin to distant places before such a market can be built up. Engineers plan ‘to use two methods of distribution—cable- and automatic relay stations, Regular telephone wires can’t
n the second year, routes would extended from New York to Boston, Washington and Charlotte; from Chicago to Terre Haute and St. Louis and from Los Angeles to Phoenix. -'In the third year, coaxial cable would link Chicago; Toledo, Cleveland and Buffalo; and a southern transcontinental * route would travel through Charlotte, Columbia, Atlanta, Burmingham, Jackson, Dallas, E] Paso, Tuscon to Phoenix, In the third and fourth years, Washington would be linked to Pittsburgh and €leveland. The cross-country ‘route would -be extended ' to * San - Francisco, St Louis, Memphis aid New Orleans Kansas City Would be joinediito Omaha, Des Moines to Minneapolis and Atlanta %o Jacksonville and Miami.
Relay Stations Planned
In the same period, relay stations would spring up throughout the country, linking television stations by short wave radio. These relays, consisting of simple lattice towers mounting a device to receive and re-transmit the television signals, would be spaced within line-of-sight of each other. Distances between relays will vary according to the terrain. Between mountain - tops where - they have broad horizons, they might be 60 or more miles apart. In low country, the spacing might be only 20 miles. The first such relay went into operation recently when the Philco Corp. installed one at Mt. Rose, N. J., to link New York and Phila--delphia. Meanwhile, experts . describing - the type of picture you, will see, say that you will be able to use your post-war television set without’ turning out all your living room lights.
A Brilliant Image
The image on the screen of new sets will be brilliant enough that average home lighting won't dull its clarity. Of course you can't have a ceiling light shining on the screen _or sunlight flooding your set, but you can keep alight the usual number of shaded. lamps.” You won't have to sit in the dark. The pictures on your screen will be comparable in quality to ‘very good” 16 mm. home movies. They will be clear, Steady and bright. Contrary to what you might think, the size of thes creen isn’t the most important factor of quality. Psychologically, size is important, because most people think a small screen would be inadequate and awkward. But,

stations will be built throughout the country within two years following the end of the war, most authorities believe,
optically ' speaking, size ranks third in importance, according to television engineers.
Clarity “Is Assured
First to, be, desired ‘is adequate brightness. Dark, shadowy pic-
tures are eye-straining and tire- °
some to watch... The second most important, #&ctoF: is. the ratio of contrast Befween light and dark. The contrast ratio is pre-war television sets is“ about 15 or 20
“to 1, whereas the average pro-
fessional motion picture screen has a ratio of 60 to 1. The ratio of post-war sets will be much higher than that of old receivers, adding much to the clarity and sharpness of pictures, i O. B. Hanson, vice president and chief “engineer of the _National. Broadcasting Co., says the best distance from which to view the screen is four times its height. That is, if your screen is a foot high, four feet away would be the proper spot for the observer. The pictures you receive on the first post-war sets will be black
and white. Despite a lot of talk, -
color television is still in swaddling clothes. Color pictures have been telecast, but in laboratory fashion, A Long-Range Project Until an electronic method of transmitting color has been perfected, and until manufacturers find they can produce a color set at a price you.will be willing to pay, you won't be contemplating within your living room the colored glories of Yosemite National park or the colorful costumes of a light opera. Color is a long-range project and it will be several years after the war before it will be in general use. * Now, as to the programs you will enjoy in post-war years— It's too early to say whether you will view in the comfort of:
your home such events as the
world series, the Kentucky Derby, and college football games. The situation is clouded by a television fight looming between the movie and radio industries. ’
" Battle Is Brewing
Television promises to be a stiff threat to movie houses, but Hollywood is a big threat to radio in television. The motion picture industry is easing into television and tentatively plans to televise big events in theaters. Sports events have proved to be about the most popular television
| programs and there will be a big
scramble to obtain exclusive rights to picture broadcasts. If the movie people win exclusive television rights, the pictures will be transmitted to theaters and not to your home, Also, there may be reluctance on the part of promoters and participants in prize fights, races anl baseball, football and hockey games to permit telecasting for fear it will “kill” their gates,
Sports Broadcasts Likely
Hollywood also holds the strings to many stars who are radio’s top entertainers and who would be “naturals” for television. The broadcasting companies however, are’ confident they can provide ample television fare, and that' they will broadcast sports events. They anticipate no in» surmountable problems in transmitting athletics or studio shows, ‘They believe their presentation

will be much more satisf than newsreels,
