Probst Explains Purpose of Studies According to George E. Probst, Chairman of the Committee to Supervise Monitoring Studies, ’’the NAEB is making these studies because of its interest in serving the entire broadcasting industry, the Federal Communications Commission, and the public by increasing the knowledge of current television programming. The Los Angeles monitoring study, along with the previous New York study and other projected tele¬ vision monitoring studies, should be useful in identifying trends in television broadcasting and should provide a basis for more intelligent planning by commercial and educational broadcasters alike.” Other members of the Monitoring Studies Committee were Richard B. Hull, Director of Station WOI-AM-FM-TV, Ames, Iowa; Harold McCarty, Director of Station WHA, Madison, Wisconsin; Parker Wheatley, General Manager of Station WGBH, Boston, Massachusetts; and NAEB President Seymour N.
