-page 4 - Bulletin - March 27 service* These are virtually weekly tehchefs ihstitutes which make available to the regular school faculty meetings; discusfciohs of the newest developments in education. They are broadcast after school, at 4*00 on Tuesdays, so teachers are able to listen* Each half hour program is then mimeographed and sent to all who request it* Approxi¬ mately 1000 copies are distributed each week* If you want a copy - you may get it by asking. VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE A number of the member stations have broadcast some very worth while courses along the line of vocational guidance. One of the most effective ways of presenting this material is by use of a dramatic skit. Twenty-three such skits are being given this year by the American School of the Air* One such skit entitled, ”Do you like to work out-doors?’ 1 written by Marion 17. Towner and two splendid articles on different phases of vocational guidance by Dean Wn* F* Russell and John M* Loughran are found in March, 1935, issue of Occupations, the vocational guidance magazine. The best part of the story is that Director Franklin'T. Keller of the National Oc¬ cupational Conference, 522 5th Avenue, New York City, says that we may not only broadcast the skit published in the March issue of Occupations , but plans are being completed for financing cu plan whereby we not only may use the material but are urged to do so, by making the proper courtesy announcement* If this interests you write to Mr. Keller at the address given above for further details.
