Sunday, November 25, 1956 THE SUNDAY NEWS AND TRIBUNE, JEFFERSON CITY, MISSOURI Page 15 Home of Tomorrow Most Scientists Expect Electronic Devices to Enrich Human Living NEW YORK, Nov. 24 W--Step into your electronic life and home of tomorrow: Entire walls of your house glow with light, bright or dim, even in colors to suit your mood. You sleep in a bed without covers, but stay as warm or cool as you like. Youngster's muddy shoes are magically cleaned at the front door before their feet touch a rug. You live in a dust-free house, with the inside climate best adjusted for your health.

Your dishes, automatically washed, can be automatically put away. At a football game in an open stadium you stay warm despite icy winds because of radiant you drive there and back by car without traffic tie-ups. When you're ill, an electronic doctor helps find the trouble. At office and factory and farm, your job is easier, less tedious, you work a shorter day and week. Electronic Magic These innovations promised by the seemingly magic wand of electronics.

They are predictions by Each family member can be awakened at the proper hour, to his favorite music; dinner can be started automatically at a set hour; a facsimile newspaper delivered 'to the breakfast table, the car warmed up in winter and the "brain" could take care of unexpected things, like melting ff driveway. scientists froTfTmore than a dozen leading industries and laboratories engaged in electronic research. look ahead, the these potential From their scientists see changes from harnessing electrons to the service of humans: The home: Entire walls or ceilings are panels glowing with soft, luminescent light, of any desired intensity, in colors warm or cool, gay or soothing. And silent electronic refrigerating panels can cool or-heat This "brain" or another calculator could help figure the budget, pay bills, give you answers in calculating income tax. Television, Radio TV and radio: Your TV screen is like a picture frame on the wall, bringing you programs in full color from anywhere in the world.

By your own TV system, you can watch the children playing in the yard, or see who's at the front door. You can tape and play back favorite TV progrjyrns, put your own home movies on your own TV set. You have a personal pocket radio about the size of a pocket watch. Health: You may add amounts of -negative ions, or charged atoms, to the air in your home, for research indicates this could help combat airborne allergies. Your doctor may use an automatic clinician device which makes simultaneous readings of tempe'rature, heartbeat, blood pressure, and correlate them--and compare them with findings of whether prices go up or down.

Electronics can help choose soil types, decide on proper field rotations for the best yields. In time farms, or parts of them, may be covered with plastic canopies, and weather or climate inside the canopy may be regulated for maximum control of heat, water, and defense against insects. When do some or all these things arrive? Depending on research progress, and how much the public wants them. Electronics will surely bring a world where, the experts forecast you'll have more time for sports for hobbies, for culture, for travel. But some wonder whether there, could be opposite human effects less creativity less satisfaction from work, more idleness not put to constructive use, more laziness.

It could even be possible, says one engineer, for a dictator to capture human minds electron! catty, by putting built-in radio and electronic devices into the heads of infants, controlling thei thoughts and reactions from child hood on to assure slaves. Most scientists expect electroni devices vastly to enrich huma living. rooms. Your indoor climate is con- past checkups--to help him in his diagnosis. Communications: You will see the person you're talking to by telephone--but only if you want to be seen.

You can carry a little radio the size of a package of cigarettes so anyone can reach you and call you to the nearest telephone. You'll dial a telephone call to any telephone continent. Your telephone and telegraph messages will fly faster. Electronics will speed purchase of tickets for planes, railroads, theater, football games, checking on reservations, delivering your reserved ticket into your hands. Autos and traffic: Prevent Snarls TV and electronics can help prevent--or untangle--traffic snarls, as well as speed safe traffic control over airports.

Some superhighways may become automatic --control towers will take over the driving, braking, acceleration of your car, and removal of disabled cars.

Q. Were there really beds tha folded up in the 18th century? A. It is said that 18th century military figures had folding field beds. The beds came apart easily and were packed up and carried into the battle area. It was a small four poster bed with a lath supporled canopy.

There is doubt today that these beds actually were used in this manner. Although we do not know the exact usage we still can lind examples of the field beds today. Q. I recently saw a tpoon in a museum called a mote spoon. How was it used? Mote Spoon A.
