- 7 - WE'LL SEE YGU IN CHICAGO This month our annual fall meeting will be held in Chicago. The program is outlined on the next sheet. George Jennings and WBEZ will serve as member-hosts at this Convention which immediately precedes the 11th Annual School Broadcast Conference. A top-notch program has been arranged----and we have considerable Association business to take care of. To make the meeting a success a really big attendance is needed. Early reports indicate that this will be the largest NAEB meeting ever held-even surpassing the record turn-out at Ohio l$st May. Several old-timers are bringing with them younger staff members. This is a splendid device for strengthening a station staff by giving a better understanding of the over-all picture. Look at the program.

Behind the 8-Ball may be a good description of the plight of "kid-programs" producers if they adhere to Item $8 of the proposed NAB code which says? "No program or episode should contain material, or end with an incident which will create in the child’s mind morbid suspense or other harmful nervous reactions." Things are slipping. It was recently noted that one issue of a well-known "trade publication" neglected to wave the "freedom of speech" headlinesl Why, if the Blue Book is all wrong as its critics imply, do broadcasters con¬ tinue to point proudly to their new activities along the lines recommended in this much maligned opus? "E.Q."—that's the new enthusiasm quotient you'll be hearing about. Gallup radio surveys now under way will sample the "qualitative aspects" of radio to find the EQ for radio performers. Introspection is a good thing. If "American Radio" would stop arm v/renching through patting itself on the back and do a bit of spade work in the good earth of basic values, the listeners-as well as the industry-would profit thereby.
