NAEB Newsletter (June 1957)

NAEB members in the International Exhibition con¬ ducted in connection with it each year. We believe this speaks well for the constantly rising quality of our output and efforts, as well as increasing rec¬ ognition of the service we provide. The Individual Membership fliers sent out by Frank Schooley are beginning to bring in a significant number of new members from the staff of members institutions. Has your staff sent yours in yet? As you have perhaps heard, Fred Siebert, Di¬ rector of the School of Journalism at Illinois, and long¬ time NAEB friend, has resigned to accept a similar appointment at Michigan State. We shall miss him seriously here, but we’re glad to see that he’s going to a good school (our alma mater), and we wish him Godspeed and all success. MSU is getting a mighty fine scholar and gentleman. Within the next few weeks: UNESCO National Commission Meeting for new appointees, an ad¬ dress at the Indiana University Audio-Visual Educa¬ tion Conference, and then, we hope, vacation. Our thanks for the many kind words many of you have taken the trouble to pass on to members of the staff. They greatly appreciate them, as I do, and we’ll all try to continue to deserve the support of the fine membership which “the NAEB” represents. Have a good summer! NETWORK NEWS —Bob Underwood The Radio Network School Committee has met and selected the offering for the 1958-59 school year. This offering will be distributed during the fall and winter of this year while the 1957 offering is being aired. The Committee held its deliberations in the Del Prado Hotel, Chicago, May 31 and June 1, at which time they discussed additional major points relative to in-school broadcasting. A report of the meeting and details of the new offering will be announced later. We were quite pleased at the number of sub¬ missions we had this year for the in-school offering. Naturally, not all of them could be chosen; network production capacity would not permit it. However, on behalf of the School Committee, I want to thank those who sent in series, and remind everyone that submissions for next year’s offering will be accepted at any time. If you get your submissions in early, the Com¬ mittee’s work will be easier, as will the Network staff’s job of dubbing your audition tape for listening by Committee members. The offering for the third quarter is currently in distribution, and we trust those stations remaining on DIRECTORY CHANGES p.
