Mrs. Dorothy I. Cherr
1284H Hatteras St.
North Hollywood, Calif. 91607
Dear Mrs. Cherr:
In answer to your letter, I may say that I have read about the emission of x-radiation by some television sets, but I do not have definite information at nana.
It is my memory that some high-voltage television sets, especially certain color television sets, emit more x-radiation than is considered acceptable. I do not think that a five-year-old black and white set would be in this category.
I think that the radiation is soft enough (long enough wave length) to be absorbed in large amount by a few feet of air. It might be wise to get your children in the habit of sitting some distance back, eight or ten feet, from the set.
Sincerely,
Linus Pauling
