At the beginning of this last episode of the Johns Hopkins Science Review, John H. Fisher, superintendent of public instruction for Baltimore City, presents Lynn Poole with a citation from the National Citizens' Committee on Educational Television. Mr. Poole points out that in 1948, when this series began, there were only 22 television stations and 250,000 receiving sets nationwide. Now, in 1955, there are 423 stations and 36 million television sets. He spends the remainder of the program thanking the people who made it possible: the scientists from Johns Hopkins and other institutions who took a chance on being on television and who revealed their new discoveries, such as Dr. Arthur Parpart's vidicon camera; the teachers who included in their lesson plans the show's demonstrations of complex subjects, such as an atomic chain reaction represented by 100 mousetraps; industry, one of which credited the show with duct system design inspiration; foreign countries, such as England, France, and Canada, where many new scientific developments are taking place.
