The advantages of this system of pro­ duction are that television has the ability to "go on location" and still can produce with the speed and economy of means of television rather than the expensive motion picture method. The entire production was planned by 34-year-old producer Ted Mills. The script for this program was written by Arthur Penn.

% HOUR TV = 22 YEARS It would take a barnstorming Presidential candidate almost 22 years of daily speech­ making to reach face-to-face the 60,000,000 estimated audience who'll be able to see him in a half-hour television broadcast from the Republican and Democratic conventions.

"Music hath charms" ~ and it also has its rewards, which is one of the reasons why I get a tremendous thrill out of conducting the orchestral accompaniments for contest­ ants on "Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts." Practically all of the artists who appear on the· simulcasts have had good, strong professional experience, and praCtically all of them have been buffeted about by the uncertainties of show business. One day they're "hot," the next day they're scratch­ ing about for engagements. Then comes a try-out for "Talent Scouts" . and a chance to appear on the program. Whether the contestant wins and gets those appearances on Godfrey's morning show, or whether he loses, the opportunity for suc­ cess has been enhanced a thousandfold.

This model of the first unit of CBS T elevision City, now under construction in Hollywood as the world's first specially designed television plant, is being placed on public exhibit in principal cities of the U.S. Inspect­ ing the model is Betty Luster of CBS-TV's " Songs For Sa le." CBS Television City starts broadcast operations October 1. and on completion will occupy 25 acres. The administration and services building is to the .left, the studio wing to the right. Betty is standing on the actors' parking lot. The studio wing houses four mammoth studios a nd three rehearsal halls. The studios in this initial unit will start with a production capacity of 28 hours per week, almost half the present output of all CBS Television studios in New York, which currently produce 59Yz hours per week. The ramp running around the. second story of the studio area is for hauling scenery, which will be designed and con­ structed in shops in the far end of the administrative and services building. The ramp leading from the street is for entrance of the public from Beverly Bouleva rd. In the words of CBS-TV President J. L. Van Vol­ kenburg, CBS Television C ity will be "as elastic as the new television medium itself, providing efficiency and stability as well as the invaluable advantage of complete · Bexibility tomorrow."

CONSTRUCTION ON SCHEDULE

With work now 70 percent com_plete, construction of CBS Television City, the world's first exclusively designed TV plant, at Beverly Blvd. and Fairfax Ave., Hollywood, is moving into its final phase. Barring interruptions the plant will be ready for operation on the October deadline established at the outset of the project. The initial unit. of CBS Television C ity, built around a core of four large studios and an admin­ istration building, will occupy 15 acres. Ultimately, when additional units are completed, the project will cover 25 acres and include a 13-story administration building.
