Abstract: THE OPPORTUNITY for organizing a concerted effort in the behalf of educational television arose from the so-called “freeze” in the construction of television stations which began in September 1948. TV broadcasting, whose early beginnings are traced back to the opening of the New York World's Fair in 1939, began to show a lusty growth pattern immediately after the war. It soon became apparent that the channels allocated for television usage were not sufficient to provide for a truly competitive national television service. It also became apparent that early technical criteria as to the propagation of television signals were based on inadequate information. To correct these important difficulties, the Federal Communications Commission decreed a freeze in new construction in 1948 and began a study of a new allocation plan.
