THE. NEW

STELLA MARITIME VIDEOCENTER SYSTEM

CONSISTS OF:

THE S.M.V.I. RECEIVER:

The finest in television technology which is employed as the main receiving unit within the system. S.M.V.I. receivers are all full color, solid state, 21" television units. Virtually maintenance free, these receivers can, with slight adaptation available, display not only American N.T.S.C. RF broadcast signals but the

European PAL system as well. When at sea, a simple operational activity transforms the receiver into an on board theatre exhibiting S.M.V.I.'s superior library of current all-color motion picture feature films.

THE S.M.V.I. VIDEO PLAYER:

At the heart of the S.M.V.I. system is the 3/4" solid state U-Matic Video Player. Shock mounted and custom adapted for safe and secure at-sea use, the S.M.V.I. Video Player features simplicity of operation, a dual stereo audio capability, and can drive as many receivers as required.

THE S.M.V.I. VIDEOCASSETTE:

High impact plastic, indestructible under normal oper- ating conditions makes up the cassette casing with durable and resolution perfect chromium dioxide video-tape as the recording base of the cassette.

THE S.M.V.I. ENTERTAINMENT PACKAGE:

Current, top-flight, full color feature motion pictures from the major producers of the world comprise the S.M.V.I. library. Westerns, action adventure, myster- ies, science fiction, horror and suspense, all with internationally renowned stars. In many cases, selected features are available in languages other than English.

INSTALLATION:

Quick, easy, and as simple as a "home type" hookup.

All connections are color coded and visible for handling and wiring needs.

Where multiple receivers are desired, installations are still relatively simple and can be accomplished by ships personnel or on special request by S.M.V.I. local installers around the world.

Atlantic Richfield President

Says Alaska Holds U.S. Hopes

For Future Energy Resources

America will find the near-term answer to the nation's energy requirements in Alaska and in the continental shelf offshore that state,

Thornton F. Bradshaw, president of Atlantic

Richfield Company, said recently in Anchor- age. "The petroleum products that we must have are in the fields of the North Slope and under the waters of the Gulf of Alaska . . . we have delayed too long in .both areas," Mr. Bradshaw said in remarks prepared for the Council on

Environmental Quality at an environmental impact hearing concerning potential ail and gas development in the Gulf of Alaska.

Mr. Bradshaw and nine other industry wit- nesses were scheduled for two days of testi- mony before the CEQ. Previous regional hearings that included areas off the Atlantic

Seaboard were 'held in Washington, DC., and

Boston, iMass. Others are scheduled for New

York, N.Y., Philadelphia, Pa., and Jackson- ville, Fla.

Pointing out that Prudhoe Bay alone, on

Alaska's North Slope, has been credited with proved reserves of 9.6nbillion barrels of oil and 26-trillion cubic feet of gas, Mr. Bradshaw em- phasized that the importance of Prudhoe and the Gulf of Alaska lies in providing "help to give us time, a breathing space in whic'h to intensify development of new energy technolo- gies. "Reasonable estimates place the reserves within the nominated area of the Gulf of

Alaska at a level possibly two to three times that of Prudhoe Bay," he said. "If you con- sider the entire basin beneath the Gulf, the reserves could be even greater. If the energy crisis is not a fiction—and we know it to be all too real—then I fail to see how this na- tion can delay for a moment in commencing an orderly development of this vast treasure of energy lyiing off our Alaskan Coast."

Mr. Bradshaw noted that a trend to small cars and other energy-efficiency mechanisms will help in the future, but cannot at present "radically reverse the accelerating demand for energy that threatens to overwhelm available supplies ... we will continue to need increas- ing amounts of power for all purposes—trans- portation, heating, manufacturing—for the in- definite future."

A new energy policy is called for, he said, providing "a coherent plan of incremental steps that will help us balance on the tight- rope of the present, and hopefully guide us to a future of energy sufficiency."

Mr. Bradshaw stressed that the need to de- velop new technologies is urgent, because the nation will have used up readily obtainable supplies of petroleum and natural gas by the turn of the century.

He cautioned that if the trend toward de- pendence on foreign crude continues, "by 1985 we would be importing 60 percent of our oil.

And we would be bound to some of the po- litically unstable countries of the world. "The energy needs of the United 'States in the next decade will require the development of oil and gas reserves from bot'h state and

Federal leases within the onshore and the offshore areas of Alaska," he said.

He emphasized the sincerity of the oil in- dustry's concern for the environment, adding: "We seek a development of these resources that is closely compatible with the desires and needs of the American people, as well as with our investment."
