PROPOSES "BO.'mD OP STRATEGY"
0. H, Caldwell, former member of the Radio Commission, writing in Radio Retailing, of which he is the editor, has offered a novel proposal in the form of a "National Board of Strategy" for radio.
"At the present time, the broadcasters operate wholly without considera¬ tion of the set makers, while the men who build and sell radio sets carry on their business without regard to the broadcasting service which is the very lifeblood of radio," Mr. Caldwell points out. "Each group can aid the other with its particular problems. And working together, a stronger, more pros¬ perous situation can be created for all.
"There is need, he says, for setting up a National Board of Strategy for Radio, whose limited membership of five to nine, will include representatives of the set makers, radio trade, broadcasters and national chains. Such a top steering body is badly needed to coordinate into mutually helpful channels, the activities of the broadcasters and radio set industry."
Mr. Caldwell outlined a number of problems which should be included in the program of the proposed board.
NYU HAS RADIO CODRSE
A course in radio speaking has been inaugurated by New York University. The course includes composition and delivery of radio talks, the use of the voice in radio speaking, the standards of pronunciation, microphone technique, and aTl of the finer points of difference between radio and platform speaking. The course will be taught by Professor Wilke.
CHANGE IN FILING APPLICATIONS
Attention of the NAB membership again is called to the ruling of the Com¬ mission, adopted August 23, which provides that applications for renewal of license must be mailed direct to the Commission in Washington instead of to the District Supervisor which was previously the rule. Two copies of the re¬ newal application must be sent.
STAY ORDER GRANTED
The Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia granted a stay order this week to Stations WAAW and WOW, Omaha, Nebraska, and KOIL, Council Bluffs, Iowa, against the Radio Commission in connection with its decision made last week granting Station KICK permission to move from Red Oak to Carter Lake, Iowa.
The three stations had protested the Examiner's decision allowing this move.
