Telef^pjF has prove!"ants elf"' to be "the most dynamic, fastest- ^^^waM^growiiig indus- iome. danson try "gin American history. "At this writing," Du Mont continues, "there are more 'than 20 million receivers in American homes, and more than 115 [stations on the air. Indications ?√ßare that some 75 additional stations will go on the air in 1953 and that the manufacturing segment of the industry will produce upwards of six and a half million sets. "Looking to 1953, the industry is stimulated and inspired to accept an even greater challenge to its public service opportunity. It's potential is limited only by [the imagination and skill of those fusing it. Dr. DuMont concludes 'television will enable more people to view the -inauguration of President-elect Eisenhower than [the total populaflfc of the nation in 1900. More -pSSMe will have an opportunity to view this year's ceremony in Washington, D. C. than in all the other previous inaugurations combined.'" Rambling^arouna^^,h...
