Television making slow but steady progress in 1931
Tele vision is slowly snapping the sounds that kept it in the laboratory since the 1880s. Engineers pursue two main lines from entertainment and telephone work, with audiovision programs already broadcast in New York Chicago and Boston. Experimental stations total eight on short wave. The Ikonophone from Bell Labs links caller and viewer visually while sound and image are synchronized. Outdoor television showing events like horse races is being explored but not yet practical.
