14675b 1 0.88 6.64 Well,<space>I<space>believe<space>in<space>motion<space>pictures,<space>but<space>the<space>motion<space>pictures<space>I<space>believe<space>are<space>the<space>motion<space>pictures<space>in<space>people's<space>minds.
14675b 1 8.24 8.48 And<space>the<space>motion<space>picture<space>as<space>we<space>turn,<space>that<space>is<space>the<space>cinema,<space>is<space>merely<space>a<space>means<space>of<space>putting<space>motion<space>pictures<space>in<space>people's<space>minds.
14675b 1 16.96 10.00 Now<space>there<space>many<space>more<space>economical<space>and<space>faster<space>ways<space>of<space>inducing<space>pictures<space>in<space>people's<space>minds<space>than<space>by<space>means<space>of<space>motion<space>pictures.
14675b 1 26.96 5.68 Motion<space>pictures<space>may<space>be<space>a<space>bit<space>more<space>vivid,<space>and<space>may<space>be<space>more<space>specific.
14675b 1 32.96 4.08 They<space>may<space>be<space>more<space>stimulating<space>from<space>an<space>emotional<space>standpoint.
14675b 1 37.36 23.36 They<space>may<space>be<space>more<space>realistic,<space>but<space>if<space>you're<space>dealing<space>with<space>familiar<space>situations,<space>and<space>you<space>can<space>talk<space>in<space>terms<space>of<space>the<space>previous<space>experience<space>of<space>the<space>people<space>to<space>whom<space>you<space>are<space>talking,<space>and<space>can<space>make<space>that<space>sufficiently<space>vivid<space>by<space>still<space>pictures,<space>or<space>even<space>by<space>words<space>without<space>pictures,<space>it's<space>far<space>more<space>economical,<space>of<space>course.
14675b 1 60.80 3.52 So<space>that<space>only<space>about<space>a<space>third<space>of<space>our<space>work<space>is<space>in<space>motion<space>picture<space>field.
14675b 1 65.04 7.76 The<space>rest<space>is<space>verbal<space>in<space>terms<space>of<space>talks,<space>illustrative<space>talks,<space>yes,<space>and<space>dramatic<space>productions<space>of<space>one<space>kind<space>or<space>another.
14675b 1 73.20 2.96 We<space>produce<space>live<space>shows.
14675b 1 76.32 10.32 And<space>in<space>fact,<space>we<space>are,<space>at<space>times,<space>the<space>largest<space>employers<space>of<space>the<space>theatrical...
14675b 1 86.96 1.20 help,<space>should<space>we<space>say?
14675b 1 89.04 6.00 In<space>the<space>country<space>because<space>we,<space>at<space>times,<space>we<space>have<space>as<space>many<space>as<space>14<space>roadshows<space>out<space>at<space>one<space>time.
14675b 1 95.36 3.44 I<space>wonder<space>if<space>I<space>may<space>ask<space>you<space>to<space>do<space>something<space>for<space>me,<space>Mr.<space>Handy.
14675b 1 99.20 4.08 You,<space>on<space>your<space>garment,<space>have<space>no<space>outer<space>pocket.
14675b 1 103.44 6.56 And<space>I'm<space>familiar<space>with<space>why<space>you<space>have<space>your<space>suit<space>tailored<space>without<space>it,<space>but<space>I<space>think<space>it's<space>an<space>interesting<space>story,<space>and<space>I'd<space>like<space>you<space>to<space>share<space>it<space>with<space>our<space>audience.
14675b 1 110.00 3.20 I<space>don't<space>think<space>I'm<space>peculiar<space>in<space>this,<space>but...
14675b 1 113.20 3.44 Well,<space>let's<space>put<space>it...
14675b 1 117.52 4.24 Temptation<space>is<space>hard<space>to<space>resist,<space>at<space>least<space>I<space>find<space>it<space>so.
14675b 1 122.24 4.64 And<space>when<space>I<space>had<space>a<space>pocket<space>there,<space>I<space>was<space>inclined<space>to<space>put<space>things<space>in<space>it.
14675b 1 127.20 4.80 It's<space>the<space>easiest<space>pocket<space>to<space>reach<space>with<space>my<space>right<space>hand,<space>like<space>that.
14675b 1 132.16 2.48 So<space>I<space>had<space>a<space>way<space>of<space>putting<space>things<space>there.
14675b 1 135.04 10.40 And<space>they<space>interfered<space>with<space>what<space>I'm<space>most<space>interested<space>in,<space>which<space>is<space>maintaining<space>attention<space>and<space>keeping<space>interest<space>on<space>the<space>thing<space>that<space>you're<space>talking<space>about.
14675b 1 145.76 6.64 In<space>other<space>words,<space>the<space>concentration<space>on<space>communication,<space>whereas<space>I<space>might<space>be<space>watching<space>your<space>pencils<space>instead<space>of<space>listening<space>carefully<space>and<space>watching<space>you.
14675b 1 152.40 25.84 Right,<space>and<space>I<space>had<space>particular<space>weakness<space>because<space>I<space>used<space>to,<space>on<space>a<space>blackboard<space>or<space>on<space>a<space>chart,<space>as<space>we<space>call<space>it,<space>these<space>turnover<space>charts,<space>I<space>would<space>use<space>green,<space>and<space>red,<space>and<space>black,<space>and<space>sometimes<space>a<space>fourth<space>color,<space>to<space>emphasize<space>or<space>give<space>special<space>significance<space>to<space>particular<space>points<space>that<space>I<space>was<space>making.
14675b 1 178.32 6.16 Sometimes<space>those<space>are<space>symbolic,<space>such<space>as<space>green<space>for<space>something<space>good<space>to<space>do<space>and<space>red<space>for<space>go<space>slow.
14675b 1 184.48 0.64 A<space>danger<space>sign.
14675b 1 185.12 0.96 And<space>that<space>sort<space>of<space>thing.
14675b 1 186.08 14.00 Well,<space>the<space>convenient<space>place<space>to<space>have<space>those<space>pencils,<space>so<space>they<space>didn't<space>slow<space>me<space>down<space>in<space>the<space>flow<space>of<space>my<space>conversation,<space>or<space>my<space>presentation,<space>or<space>communication,<space>was<space>in<space>this<space>pocket.
14675b 1 200.24 3.76 And<space>they<space>would<space>take<space>attention<space>when<space>I<space>didn't<space>want<space>them<space>to<space>take<space>attention.
14675b 1 204.00 6.48 So,<space>to<space>remove<space>temptation,<space>I<space>had<space>all<space>my<space>suits<space>thereafter<space>made<space>without<space>that<space>pocket.
14675b 1 210.88 12.96 I<space>suppose<space>for<space>similar<space>reasons,<space>I<space>have<space>come<space>to<space>learn<space>of<space>certain<space>wardrobe<space>do's<space>and<space>don'ts<space>that<space>your<space>freelance<space>actors,<space>and<space>performers,<space>and<space>so<space>forth,<space>are<space>asked<space>to<space>cooperate<space>with<space>in<space>Handy<space>Productions.
14675b 1 223.92 4.00 Such<space>as,<space>I<space>believe,<space>one<space>time,<space>the<space>button<space>down<space>collar<space>was<space>taboo.
14675b 1 227.92 5.68 I<space>think<space>you<space>discouraged<space>the<space>use<space>of<space>the<space>bow<space>tie<space>when<space>it,<space>perhaps,<space>was<space>not<space>widely<space>worn.
14675b 1 233.60 4.24 And<space>at<space>one<space>time,<space>I<space>think<space>you<space>would<space>have<space>preferred<space>an<space>actor<space>without<space>a<space>mustache<space>rather<space>than<space>with<space>one.
14675b 1 237.84 0.80 Am<space>I<space>right,<space>Jam?
14675b 1 238.72 3.28 Yes,<space>and<space>that<space>is<space>all<space>based<space>on<space>the<space>same<space>idea.
14675b 1 242.32 5.92 It's<space>difficult<space>to<space>keep<space>your<space>own<space>attention<space>on<space>what<space>you're<space>talking<space>about<space>and<space>stick<space>to<space>the<space>subject.
14675b 1 248.32 2.88 Let<space>alone<space>to<space>have<space>your<space>hearers<space>stick<space>to<space>it.
14675b 1 251.28 2.00 And<space>anything<space>that<space>is<space>conspicuous.
14675b 1 253.44 9.04 Now,<space>there<space>may<space>come<space>a<space>time<space>again<space>when<space>smooth<space>faces<space>or<space>upper<space>lips<space>are<space>conspicuous.
14675b 1 262.56 7.20 But<space>that<space>particular<space>time,<space>mustaches<space>were<space>conspicuous,<space>and<space>they<space>were<space>distracting.
14675b 1 270.08 14.24 So<space>far<space>as<space>the<space>wardrobe<space>was<space>concerned,<space>we<space>do<space>recommend<space>to<space>Speakers,<space>Executives,<space>if<space>they<space>have<space>a<space>communication<space>job,<space>we<space>suggest<space>that<space>they<space>have<space>a<space>tie<space>that<space>be<space>not<space>conspicuous.
14675b 1 284.56 5.52 Sometimes<space>it's<space>conspicuous<space>to<space>have<space>a<space>tie<space>the<space>same<space>color<space>as<space>your<space>suit.
14675b 1 290.24 3.60 In<space>fact,<space>I<space>think<space>we're<space>pretty<space>close<space>to<space>that<space>time<space>now.
14675b 1 293.92 0.48 Yes.
14675b 1 294.64 4.72 I<space>had<space>a<space>fancy<space>at<space>the<space>time,<space>personally,<space>for<space>silk<space>ties.

14675b 1 301.84 12.56 I<space>had<space>the<space>experience<space>of<space>talking<space>to<space>a<space>Sales<space>Executive,<space>and<space>presenting<space>to<space>him<space>what<space>I<space>thought<space>was<space>a<space>very<space>good<space>recommendation,<space>a<space>suggestion<space>for<space>the<space>solution<space>to<space>the<space>problem.
14675b 1 314.64 6.40 And<space>what<space>I<space>got<space>through,<space>he<space>said<space>to<space>me,<space>he<space>said,<space>"Jam..".
14675b 1 321.04 2.16 I<space>was<space>on<space>a<space>first<space>name<space>acquaintance<space>with<space>him.
14675b 1 323.28 10.16 Well<space>I<space>think<space>I<space>may<space>say<space>it<space>was<space>no<space>less<space>than<space>Tom<space>Watson,<space>Sr.,<space>of<space>the<space>IBM.<space>-<space>Oh!

14675b 1 347.52 6.32 Well,<space>I<space>decided<space>I<space>would<space>leave<space>my<space>colorful<space>ties<space>at<space>home.
14675b 1 353.84 1.36 That<space>was<space>the<space>end<space>of<space>your<space>silk<space>collection?

14675b 1 357.44 10.48 Mr.<space>Handy,<space>I'm<space>very<space>much<space>interested<space>in<space>something,<space>too,<space>that<space>you<space>were<space>obviously<space>a<space>pioneer<space>in,<space>and<space>that<space>was<space>the<space>documentary<space>film.

14675b 1 1084.00 13.04 As<space>a<space>matter<space>of<space>fact,<space>it's<space>a<space>mistake<space>to<space>think<space>of<space>me<space>as<space>an<space>athlete<space>because<space>I<space>won<space>my<space>championships<space>and<space>broke<space>my<space>records<space>largely<space>with<space>my<space>head.
14675b 1 1098.08 2.48 The<space>head<space>is<space>quite<space>important<space>in<space>swimming.
14675b 1 1100.72 10.56 And<space>one<space>of<space>the<space>techniques<space>which<space>I<space>have<space>advocated<space>is<space>using<space>the<space>head<space>physically<space>in<space>swimming<space>more<space>as<space>the<space>fish<space>and<space>the<space>porpoises<space>do.
14675b 1 1111.44 2.32 And<space>we're<space>getting<space>pretty<space>good<space>acceptance<space>of<space>that.
14675b 1 1113.76 2.24 Although<space>we<space>still<space>have<space>a<space>way<space>to<space>do.
14675b 1 1116.24 6.72 But<space>my<space>records<space>and<space>the<space>versatility<space>to<space>which<space>you<space>apply<space>there,<space>due<space>to<space>the<space>fact<space>that<space>I<space>got<space>pushed<space>around.
14675b 1 1123.04 18.00 The<space>minute<space>I<space>would<space>develop<space>a<space>new<space>technique<space>and<space>break<space>the<space>records,<space>some<space>of<space>these<space>long-eared<space>fish<space>whose<space>hands<space>were<space>farther<space>from<space>their<space>heads<space>when<space>they're<space>stretched<space>out,<space>that<space>is<space>when<space>visualizing<space>the<space>end,<space>you<space>start<space>with<space>your<space>feet<space>and<space>you<space>touch<space>with<space>your<space>hands...
14675b 1 1141.04 1.84 They<space>took<space>those<space>records<space>away!
14675b 1 1143.04 4.56 So<space>I<space>had<space>to<space>move<space>into<space>another<space>territory<space>and<space>make<space>another<space>change.
14675b 1 1147.76 3.28 So<space>I<space>went<space>from<space>one<space>device<space>to<space>another.
14675b 1 1151.12 2.08 That's<space>how<space>I<space>happened<space>to<space>get<space>into<space>breaststroke.
14675b 1 1153.28 3.52 Was<space>all<space>based<space>on<space>notions<space>we<space>used<space>in<space>the<space>breaststroke.
14675b 1 1157.04 5.92 Then,<space>a<space>side<space>kick<space>like<space>this,<space>where<space>these<space>muscles<space>aren't<space>as<space>strong,<space>they<space>don't<space>get<space>as<space>much<space>practice<space>as<space>you're<space>running.
14675b 1 1163.12 3.12 So<space>I<space>just<space>came<space>to<space>kick<space>pool<space>that<space>way<space>in<space>both<space>directions.
14675b 1 1166.80 5.36 They<space>were<space>using,<space>in<space>the<space>backstroke,<space>they<space>were<space>using<space>both<space>arms<space>together,<space>this<space>way.
14675b 1 1172.56 5.04 I<space>used<space>them<space>one<space>at<space>the<space>time,<space>like<space>that,<space>and<space>that<space>way<space>avoided<space>the<space>loss<space>of<space>momentum,<space>and<space>broke<space>the<space>records.
14675b 1 1177.60 9.04 But<space>in<space>swimming,<space>as<space>these<space>talented<space>long-eared<space>fish,<space>particularly<space>the<space>basketball<space>potential,<space>shall<space>we<space>say?
14675b 1 1186.64 2.32 Started<space>to<space>use<space>those<space>techniques,<space>they<space>broke<space>my<space>records.
14675b 1 1188.96 5.20 Many<space>of<space>them<space>didn't<space>stay<space>on<space>the<space>books<space>more<space>than<space>a<space>year.
14675b 1 1194.24 5.92 Well,<space>I<space>think<space>one<space>remarkable<space>achievement<space>that<space>Robert<space>Ripley<space>had<space>occasionally<space>publicized,<space>as<space>a<space>matter<space>of<space>fact.
14675b 1 1200.16 5.12 Of<space>course,<space>it's<space>well<space>known,<space>I<space>think<space>that<space>you<space>were<space>a<space>member<space>of<space>the<space>US<space>Olympic<space>Swimming<space>Team<space>when<space>you<space>were<space>quite<space>a<space>young<space>man.

14675b 1 1222.16 7.52 Now,<space>it<space>was<space>not<space>on<space>that<space>subject<space>that<space>Mr.<space>Ripley<space>found<space>it<space>so<space>unusual<space>and,<space>therefore,<space>reported<space>it.
14675b 1 1229.76 6.56 What<space>was<space>more<space>amazing<space>is<space>that,<space>20<space>years<space>later,<space>you<space>were<space>again<space>representing<space>the<space>United<space>States<space>on<space>the<space>Olympic<space>Team.

14675b 1 1265.12 2.64 With<space>that<space>disappointment,<space>I<space>wanted<space>to<space>find<space>some<space>way<space>in.
14675b 1 1267.84 16.80 They<space>wanted<space>you<space>to<space>show<space>up-<space>-<space>I<space>got<space>just<space>ahead<space>of<space>somebody<space>who<space>has<space>duplicated<space>my<space>record,<space>at<space>least<space>technically,<space>by<space>making<space>the<space>team<space>28<space>years<space>apart<space>as<space>a<space>yaughtsman.
