Service to Commercial Stations Increases Commercial stations in increasing numbers are taking advantage of the availability of state station programs for rebroadcast. A short summary: Sports —University of Wisconsin basketball broadcasts are now carried by 26 com¬ mercial stations, all of them cooperating in the Department of Agriculture plan which takes care of the normal charges for line costs and expenses of the Athletic Department in return for the broadcasting of several announcements in promotion of dairy and other agricultural products. The list includes two Illinois stations and one in Iowa. Weather Forecasts —Rebroadcast by five commercial stations. Daily Highway Reports —Rebroadcast by four commercial stations. School of the Air —Rebroadcast in its entirety by three stations and partially by two others. WATW, Ashland, has just given notice of cancellation of the series, however, because the time has been sold. Farm Program, Homemakers' Hour —Rebroadcast entirely by one station each, partially by s everal others. Views of the News —Daily cross section of editorial opinion presented by Roy •• Vogelman, rebroadcast by WEAW, Evanston, Illinois. Manufacturers Plan Special FM Promotion Wisconsin has been named as one of three special areas chosen for test campaigns to promote FM radio set sales. The campaign is a joint project of the Radio Manufac¬ turers’ Association and the National Association of Radio—Television Broadcasters, and will have the cooperation of broadcasters, set makers, distributors and dealers. The campaign will open in North Carolina January 21, Wisconsin February U, and the District of Columbia March 1. One manufacturer reports that recent intensification of sales efforts in Wisconsin has increased sales four to five times over the rate of several months ago. The moral: When people know about the availability of receivers and a distinctive program service in the same area, there is no ‘*FM problem.”
