We will give him all the support he requires. 18. On 23 January, the Audio Aids Section demonstrated a random-access 2x2" slide projector to approximately 11 instructors in the AVSB Screening Room. This unit, the Eastman Kodak Carousel RA-950, is the same model AAS 25X1A9A has demonstrated several times before during recent years. has been evaluating the unit for possible use in a film-retrieval program he has been developing. The response was enthusiastic but no one had a use for the system today. This lack of present need is probably be- cause each instructor has arranged his slides in the sequence he uses them and does not have to go back or jump forward to conduct his presentation. In fact, at the present time, it would appear that the only possible uses in OTR for a random- access projector would be in a film-retrieval program requiring access to many hundreds of slides, in the Field Finance program, or in the Records program. Also demonstrated was the latest version of the Kodak Carousel 2:x2" transparency projector featuring manual override of the automatic focusing mechanism. 19. We will submit a list of equipment required to furnish half of the present language laboratory (lD-1603) as a classroom. 20.
