Tape Recorders
Any hi-fi buff knows that tape
provides one of the best means of
obtaining hi-fi sound. Although
the term “tape recorder" is pop
ularly used, this unit in the home
music system is both a recorder
and a playback device,
~ ■’*' "" How does a
tape recorder
work? Basical
ly, sound is
converted into
electrical im
pulses, which
in turn are
converted to
magnetic impulses. The impulses
magnetize an iron oxide coated
tape, the tape on which the re
cording is made. When a re
corded tape is played back, the
magnetic impulses are converted
back to electrical impulses, then
to sound.
Tapes are more expensive than
records, but they will last indefi
nitely without becoming noisy
or worn. Many hi-fi and stereo
enthusiasts assemble their own
tape recorders with kits such as
the TR-1AQ 4-Track Kit made
by the Heath Company of Benton
Harbor, Michigan. Choosing a
low-cost model that runs smooth
ly and quietly, they build their
own stereo libraries.
The advantages of the new 4
Track tape reels standardized by
the industry are markedly re
duced costs relative to playing
time; improved quality; free
dom from the necessity of post
or pre-performances rewinding
when playing complete tapes.

Georgia-Pacific Corp,
Drops Plans to Build Pulp
And Paper Plant in Alaska
PORTLAND, Ore. (/P>—Georgia
Pacific Corp. today dropped plans
to build a pulp and paper plant
in Alaska. The company said it
will further expand its Samoa,
Calif., facilities.
In 1955, the company won a
preliminary award of U. S. For
est Service timber on Admiralty
Island near Juneau. A three-year
extension was granted in 1958.
Development of the timber was
contingent on building a mill
there.
James L. Buckley, president of
Georgia-Pacific Alaska Co., said
it would not be economical for
the company to build a mill in
Alaska at. this time.
The company will build an in
tegrated unit at Samoa similar to
its Toledo, Ore., unit, Buckley
said. It will convert redwood and
Douglas fir waste into pulp
chips “at a very low cost,” he
added.
Senators Shout Voice
Approval for Farm Bill
WASHINGTON (/P> — Without
the formality of a recorded vote,
senators shouted approval of the
biggest farm money bill in his
tory.
The measure would provide
slightly over $7 billion to carry
on the wide variety of agricultu
ral programs in the year which
begins July 1.
Passed Tuesday by voice vote,
the bill now goes back to the
House which had voted some $115
million less, although both ver
I sions provide nearly $2 billion
: more than Congress supplied for
! the current year.
Both versions are slightly be
low President Kennedy’s budget
requests.
Virginia extends further west
and West Virginia.
President Says Japan Is
Playing Important Role
In Cause for Freedom
WASHINGTON UP — President
Kennedy today declared Japan is
playing “a most important role at
a climactic time in the life of our
two countries and in the life of
the cause of freedom.”
Addressing his remarks to Jap
anese Prime Minister Hayato
Ikeda at a state luncheon, Ken
nedy said the influence of the
Japanese people in Asia and the
Pacific and their friendship with
the United States are “basic to
the security and prosperity” of
the American people.
In a toast to Emperor Hirohito
of Japan, the President welcomed
Ikeda as a distinguished spokes
man foi the Free World and as
the leader of an outstanding na
tion.
Ikeda, speaking in Japanese, as
sured Kennedy that “we share
your determination to preserve
world peace as well as your faith
in the ultimate triumph of the free
way of life.”
Among guests at the luncheon
was former President Eisenhower,
who had chatted for almost an
hour with Kennedy.
The Japanese Prime Minister
arrived about 15 minutes early for
the luncheon and immediately
went into a short conference with
Kennedy and Eisenhower. The
subject of their talks was not
learned immediately.
Kennedy and Ikeda, joined by
a handful of close advisers, left
after the lunch for a two-hour
cruise in the rain on the Potomac
River aboard the Presidential
cruiser “Honey Fitz.”
Ikeda’s wife, dressed in tra
ditional mauve silk kimono and
white obi with floral designs, ac
companied him to the luncheon.
It is said—but can’t be proved—
that Emperor Charlemagne in
vented the pretzel.
