EDUCATION: Radio Conference

(3 of 3)

First attempt to teach schoolmen radio technique was made by Ohio State Uni-versity which since 1928 has had a workshop for radio broadcasting. Last week the Conference had news of a novel organization called University Broadcasting Council. Set up in Chicago two years ago by the University of Chicago's Radio Director Allen Miller, the Council helps educators from Chicago, Northwestern and DePaul universities not only to solicit radio time and to split the expenses of broadcasting but also to write good scripts. With a $55,000 budget, Director Miller reported, the Council had provided its members with $300,000 worth of broadcasting service. Most popular Council program is the University of Chicago Round Table, in which chatty professors like Philosopher Thomas Vernor Smith and Political Scientist Jerome Kerwin discuss such topics as "The Elections" or "The Abdication of Edward VIII."
