Geelong and North Old Boys are the only unbeaten teams after the second round of matches played a fortnight ago . North sneaked home by two points after a close struggle with Caulfield Grammarians, but Geelong scored a comfortable and impressive win over Old Paradians, who were runners-up last season . St. Bernard's finished too strongly for Ivanhoe and won the high-scoring game by 15 points, and University Blues lasted better than Monash Blues to be winners by 11 points . Reservoir Old Boys scored another resounding win, this time over As- sumption (who were runners-up to them in C Section last season) and gave the suggestion that they may be heading for A Section . J North Old Boys hopped out with 7 Parade made a determined bid to goals in the first quarter, but Caulfield gain control of the game in the third had faced a similar leeway in the term but Geelong stayed with them first round, and recovered well to lead and were in a strong position when by a point at the interval .

    AUSTRALIAN RADIO TRIVIA Below are examples of extensive history and interesting trivia collected from a list of over 700 A.M. stations researched. For further details on each station, refer to the six State listings. Radio Australia started as 3ME in 1921. ** 3AW, 3CS, and 2GB once banned all Beatles records. ** 3AR, 3KZ, 2HD, 2UW, 5KA, 5AU, and 4AT were closed by the military for broadcasting alleged security breaches during WWII. ** 3UZ-3XY, 5AN-5CL, 2SM-2CH, 3GL-3CS, 6PR-6PM, 7BU-7AD, and 4BC-4BK, experimented with stereo in 1958 (left and right audio on separate stations - listeners needed two radios). ** 3DB rejected a job application from John Laws. ** 3BO was the first to employ John Laws. ** 3AK and 2SM both claim to be the first to try talkback radio, but 2UE and 3DB were the first to legally broadcast talkback. ** 2BL was previously 2SB, and actually started as 2HP. ** 2FC broadcast an interview with Adolf Hitler in 1932. ** 2UE started the original Top 40 charts in March 1958. ** 2BL broadcast 7,094 episodes of “Blue Hills”. ** 2UW broadcast 2,276 episodes of “Dad and Dave”. ** 2GB planned to open 3GB, 4GB, 5GB, 6GB, and 7GB. ** 2KY was the first station in the world to broadcast Parliament. ** 2HD opened with 12 records in their library. ** Moss Vale used to have its own commercial station (2MV). ** The studios of country stations 2GZ, 2LE, and 2KA used to be in Sydney. ** 2WG was once kept on air during flooding by an amateur operating his radio link to their transmitter. ** 2DU was often put off the air due to flooding.

    E HARVARD COLLEGE OBSERVATORY Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 INTERIM REPORT NO. 2 on e NGR 22-007-194 LUNAR NOMENCLATURE Donald H. Menzel, Principal Investigator to c National Aeronautics and Space Administration Office of Scientific and Technical Information (Code US) Washington, D. C. 20546 17 August 1970 e This is the second of three reports to be submitted to NASA under Grant NGR 22-007-194, concerned with the assignment I of names to craters on the far-side of the Moon. As noted in the first report to NASA under the subject grant, the Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature (of Commission 17 of the International Astronomical Union, IAU) originally assigned the selected names to features on the far-side of the Moon in a . semi-alphabetic arrangement. This plan was criticized, however, by lunar cartographers as (1) unesthetic, and as (2) offering a practical danger of confusion between similar nearby names, par- ticularly in oral usage by those using the maps in lunar exploration. At its meeting in Paris on June 20 --et seq., the Working Group accepted the possible validity of the second criticism above and reassigned the names in a more or less random order, as preferred by the cartographers. They also deleted from the original list, submitted in the first report to NASA under the subject grant, several names that too closely resembled others for convenient oral usage. The Introduction to the attached booklet briefly reviews the solutions reached by the Working Group to this and several other remaining problems, including that of naming lunar features for living astronauts.

  • What Is Television? (Re) Defining the Medium Dr Marc C-Scott
    What is television? (Re) Defining the medium Dr Marc C-Scott (PhD) College of Arts and Education, Victoria University, Footscray, Australia Email: [email protected] Phone: +61 399192920 Twitter: @marc_cscott Dr Marc C-Scott is a senior lecturer in screen media at Victoria University, Australia. He completed his PhD “Invention to Institution: A Comparative Historical Analysis of Television across Three National Sites” in 2016. His research interests are within television (history, institutions, policy, broadcast technologies and methods), cross-platform media and sportscasting. Marc regularly appears on both local and international television and radio commentating on the changing media landscape. He also writes for The Conversation about many topics associated with changes in the media landscape. 1 What is television? (Re) Defining the medium This paper will discuss the difficulties that have and will continue in defining the medium of television. The term has for many years been used to describe an entertainment medium which is part of the mass media landscape. It was first discussed, in the context of the medium of television, in a paper presented by Constantin Perskyi, at the International Electricity Congress during 1900. Almost thirty years later, as television broadcast tests commenced in Britain, the United States and Australia, there was still confusion and debate as to whether television was the correct term to use for the new medium. The contemporary misconception of defining television is made evident when its definition is reviewed within dictionaries, which consists of multiple definitions. This multipurpose approach and the new media landscape, which includes streaming and video-on-demand, has only created greater confusion.
