Color TV in Months as CBS Wins Legal Battle
Washington May 29 Color television programs by the Columbia Broadcasting System may start legally in about a month but widespread public access will take longer. The Supreme Court settled the legal phase yesterday though major hurdles remain. Black and white programs will continue for about 13 million current TV owners as RCA shows its rival color method and defense mobilization demands metals. CBS plans to expand color broadcasts in New York and later to other stations, while RCA proceeds with public demonstrations of its own system.

A Maryland University survey finds heavier infestations in Cavetown and Boonsboro, while areas near Hagerstown show few moths hatched.
