B.B.C. TELEVISION TEST COMES TO SUDDEN CONCLUSION.
THE (UN)DRESS REHEARSAL Scientific progress took an unforeseen turn one day last month, to the embarrassment of two B.B.C. research 'men wh'o were experimenting with infra-red ray television (says the London News-Chronicle. The engineers were "looking in" at a row of dancing girls who were bein)g televised when, to their astonishment, they noticed that only one of the girls appeared to be clothed. The experiment finished ahruptly, and the girls, who were clad in cotton dancing tunics, were told that it could not go on until they dressed themselves in silk. Infra-red television is not used for the regular B.B.C. television broad- ' casts. Its ehief application is to enable television to he carried out in the dark by means of "invisfble light."
