- 5 - "It may take some salesmanship in the beginning* But it can be done by visiting the directors, explaining our aims and ultimate goals. Then, too, there is the good will that can be created between commercial radio interests and educa¬ tional institutions by personal interviews. "It is usually the uninformed who object, to any cause, if the cause is justly founded. "Then, too, we also learn. Our appreciation of what the commercial director needs for his listening audience will be enlarged. We can then write, talk, and picture our educational materials in such a way that they will more properly fit into the commercial radio station broadcasting pattern." # James W. Barrett, Editor of the Press-Radio Bureau of the publishers’ National Radio Committee has sent many stations a reprint of an article on "Radio and the Press," by Mr. E. H. Harris, Chairman of the Publishers' committee, which appeared in the Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, issued January 10th, 1935. Better look up the issue or write Mr. Barrett, 551 Fifth Avenue, New York City, for a copy of the reprint. # WHAT EDUCATIONAL STATIONS ARE DOING On Wisconsin'. Supplied by Harold A. Engel, Promotion Director at behest of Program Director Mac McCarty, WHA: Developments in the Wisconsin College of the Air show a new use for radio in supplementing the educational programs of the Wisconsin penal institutions. The state penitentiary uses the programs regularly and welcomes them particularly because few qualified teachers are found among the convicts and no funds are pro¬ vided for hiring teachers. The state reformatory is well equipped with radio and will on February 1, make use of the broadcast programs. The educational program affords leisure time activity so necessary for those in confinement. Some prisoners, prior to the installation of the receivers to bring in the V/isconsin College of the Air, had never before heard a radio. By means of a studio in the state capitol and a permanent wire connection WHA broadcasts events and messages of state importance coming from the governor, legislators and state officials. Useful in stimulating an interest in radio are meetings held in the broad¬ casting studios. The radio section of the Southern Wisconsin Teachers Association will meet in the WHA studios on Friday, February 8. Those present will see and hear actual broadcasts of features of the Wisconsin School of the Air. The meeting will feature a talk by a teacher who uses the broadcasts as a part of her class work PTA groups, women's organizations, luncheon clubs welcome invitations to visit the studios. If you don’t believe it just drop a suggestion to some of your local bodies. They’ll come many miles to see you. # The prize-winning long-distance attendant of the Kansas City Convention, Frank F.
