'DAYLIGHT” MOVIE SCREEN
A
Japanese Scientist's Claim
Tokyo, (By Mail). "Bright-Room"
screen,
which enables motion pictures to be shown in lighted rooms or in broad daylight, has been per- fected by a Japanese scientist, it is claimed here.
The screen will be shipped for dis- play at the World Fair in New York next day.
The invention is the work of Dr. Takeo Shimizu, of the Scientific and Chemical Research Institute, who says he started his experiments six years ago, actuated by a desire to rectify the "unreasonable necessity". of showing motion pictures in dark rooms alone.
Many screens have been devised for use in bright rooms, hut Dr. Shimizu's screen is aald to be unique.
