Abstract: Editorial Note: The author of this paper has undertaken an exhaustive study of the use of feature films on television with emphasis on editing methods. His paper was divided into six chapters: I, A History of Feature Films on Television; II, Distributors and Prices; III, The Editor and His Assignment; IV, Editing a Feature; V, Examining a Cut Feature Film; VI, Conclusion. The following condensation is based mainly on excerpts from Chapters III and IV. Admittedly in the condensing of any serious and extensive work, there is the risk of perpetrating the “unabashed mayhem” which is the author's description of the consequence of editing a feature to about half its original running length. In making this condensation (with the approval of the author) every effort was made to avoid “mayhem.”
