These announcements were made at Broadcasting House yes- terday by Sir Noel Ashbridge and Mr. Gerald Cock, the B.B.C. Chter Engineer and Television Director, respectively. It is proposed to use the two chosen system, Baird and Marconi EMI, in alternate

ROYAL NAVY
Sailing Association
London, Jan. 25
Among the gracious acts of King George in the closing days of his reign was to give his sang- tion to the use of the title "Royal". by the newly-formed Naval Balling Association. This is announced, in Admiralty Fleet Orders issued yes- - terday. The proposal to revive training under sail for naval off- pers as part of their official in- struction was much discussed In 1932-33, but on account of the wreat diversity of opinion among the senter officers of the Navy it was not proceeded with. `The Ro- yal Naval Salling Association, however, is a voluntary organiza- tion founded, as the result of a meeting held at Portsmouth on October 25 last.
Lord Monsell, First Lord of the Admiralty, and Vice-Admiral Gent- frey Blake have now intimated their acceptance of the offices of
