Opening Address—22nd Television Conference

Howard T. La Zare

Good morning Ladies and Gentleman; members and quests. Welcome to the 22nd Annual SMPTE Television Conference. The theme of our conference “Technology in Transition” conjures up visions of new ways, new methods and new things. Indeed this very month, January through the years boasts a legion of technological innovations. Including the first successful heart transplant operation performed by Dr. Christiaan Barnard, January 2nd, 1968. He captured the imagination of the world and dramatized a whole new frontier for science. New frontiers, indeed are all around us. Some much closer than we think.
