[WESTINGHOUSE COIN-OPERATED DRY CLEANING & WESTINGHOUSE SCIENCE TALENT SEARCH SCIENCE FAIR, 1960s]

[Music] here's the amazing new Westinghouse do-it-yourself dry cleaner imagine being able to dry clean all these things for about $2 just by dropping a few coins in a slot this coin operated dry cleaner was developed by Westinghouse to give budget-minded Housewives a dry cleaning method as easy and inexpensive as their neighborhood self-service laundromat imagine the time and money you will save cleaning in just one load for example two sports shirts four sweaters three skirts two slacks three children's outfits all for about $2 just load them all into a new westing house Dry Cleaner insert the coins and from that point on the machine does all the work automatically your things come out beautifully cleaned and deodorized you'll find westing house Dry Cleaners wonderfully convenient and inexpensive for items like draperies and blankets too today look for these new dry cleaners next to the famous laundromat washers at your neighborhood self-service laundry the new Westinghouse coin operated dry cleaner is another of the fine products which westing house is constantly developing to make your housekeeping more convenient more pleasant creating new household appliances for today and tomorrow is one of the ways westing house puts the future in your [Music] hands you're about to meet some outstanding Young Americans they're among the 40 winners of the 21st annual science Talent search conducted by Westinghouse and science clubs of America let's talk to some of them here's Barry cook of R Massachusetts who constructed his own robot called Prometheus it's a robot vehicle powered by a sewing machine motor and steered by coffee machine solenoids the steering can also be programmed on a regular tape recorder may we see it work certainly you're working it manually now yes but it can be done just as well by the tap what sort of a future do you envision for Prometheus it can explore environments too harsh for man such as the interior of a nuclear reactor or even the surface of the Moon thank you Barry thank you now here's a chap with a brainy project he's LS hly of sance New York would you explain this leis well I along with a lot of other people wondered whether fish really do hear so I carried on this experiment to determine this by the use of electrodes implanted in the brain and electronic equipment I was able to determine that this one species of fish here is almost as well as humans do and then I went on to find the biological structures which are responsible for this hearing sensation well there you have it now we know some fish do here thanks to Lewis now meet Donna Jean Hayes of Toledo Ohio your interest is atomic energy isn't it Don yes it is and I have constructed this apparatus to study the atom consists of an electron accelerator or Atom Smasher which is powered by a vandra generator the accelerator produces an electron beam and drives it into the cloud chamber where it produces nuclear reactions very impressive Donna thank you time to visit with just one more westing house winner Mitchell fruitstone of Carl Gables Florida who may be on his way to an important scientific advance in medicine tell us about it Mitchell material is called interferon and it's been proven effective in both cell cultures and eggs against herpy simplex virus a virus which causes cold sores fever blisters and shingles in this particular experiment it proved 89.3% effective I call that successful very is this the end product that is the interferon material I see well good luck to you Mitchell and to all 40 of this year's winners of Westinghouse scholarships and awards it was to find gifted youngsters like these and help them on their way that Westinghouse set up the science Talent search 20 years ago so far over 6,000 students have been launched on promising Scientific careers today this year's winners are helped by the science Talent search to advance their education tomorrow they'll be putting their talents to work work in many important fields of Science and Technology helping to find more of the young scientists that America so urgently needs is another way Westinghouse puts the future in your [Music] hands
