|Congratulations to London, Olympics city in 2012.
|Madame Tussaud's, Marylebone Road, Regent's Park
|honors Owens in London with waxes of sports greats.
|Producer Leni Riefenstahl featured Owens in OLYMPIA.
|Pre-WW II film set visual standards for world Olympics,
|but became war propaganda for German audiences.
|Germans televised the Olympics in 1936 with Owens.
|Used TV systems invented by Philo T. Farnsworth
|for showing Riefenstahl's films to German viewers,
|& RCA/NBC designs featuring Farnsworth innovations.
|Belief is Hitler had Crystal Palace in London burned
|to slow Baird's London experiments. Nazis wanted TV
|supremacy, rejecting Farnsworth's licensing charges.
|In 1920s Baird had joined Germans in TV development,
|but after burning of Baird's London company, former
|employees turned TV expertise to perfecting radar.
