r.M OF A SERIES FEATURING THE MEN WHO MAKE FREE & PETERS TELEVISION SERVICE Heads up, Sj it s — ■ i (Another F&P TELEVISION Specialist) Yes, "heads up" is the phrase for Chick Showerman. As you undoubtedly know, he's been heading up a lot of things, for years — including the Central Division of NBC, as Vice President In Charge (recently piloting this Division's television sales to an outstanding level in the industry). Now Chick has joined F&P, to head up our rapidly-growing television sales and to help keep us heads (and shoulders) up on National Spot Television. Big man though he is, however, Chick Showerman is by no means the only great performer in our team of TV specialists. For years we've been building a complete line and backfield of skill and experience in this new and exciting medium — have long since developed a TV squad that's of strictly championship quality. . . . We of Free & Peters are entirely convinced that "good men are the secret of success." Ever since our company's founding in 1932, we have considered it a big part of our job to discover, develop and acquire good men. We know you can see the results, here in this pioneer group of radio and television station representatives. Four years, University of Illinois Two years, U. S.
