FRIDAY. DECEMBER 9. 1955 TV Classes Provide Student Training, Work The closed-circuit television project of the University, in addition to presenting classes to twice the number of students, provides training and part-time work for 24 undergraduates in camera operating, camera control work, and engineering, and for 23 graduate assistants in proctoring and instructing. Four students are involved in each television class hour—two camera operators, one engineer, and one staff member. Engineers average 12 hours of work a week, within a range of five to 25 hours. Camera operators put in approximately three hours, ranging from one to eight hours. There are two separate closed circuit systems, one in Sparks Building and one in Osmond Lab oratory. The equipment in the complete system is worth $16,000, an is equivalent to approximately $75,000 worth of equipment in a commercial television studio. ' The closed-circuit cameras are a different type from commercial ones, and are smaller, and less easily damaged, in order to ac commodate less experienced oper ators. The picture received on the classroom set is clearer than a home set because more detail is visible, The students serve a trial period of four weeks, or 12 sessions. If they show dependability, interest, and an understanding of the work, they are aceepted. Camera operators are Samuel Wolcott, Richard Conway, John Brilhart, Donald Barton, James A. Martin, Bernard Shusman, Mor ton Slakoff, Walter Swartz, Ran dall Shores, Charles Folkers, Al lison Munn, Sandra Greenspun, William Christensen, and Thomas Wellington. Engineers are Lloyd Matter, chief student engineer, James Raleigh, Robert Potts, Robert Horst, Roy McClaine, Robert Mas lanski, and Dean Maurer. There are tWo origination rooms in the Sparks system, room 10 and room 20. Room 20 is equipped with desks for 20 students, a piano, and background Only one class, Commerce 30, originates in room 10. The project is being- supported by the Ford Foundation Fund for the Advancement of Education. Last year $43,000 was given to the University, and this year $49,000.
