NEWSLETTER NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF EDUCATIONAL BROADCASTERS VOL. XXV NO. 12 DECEMBER 1960 January 9 Is Closing Date for Ohio State Awards Entries Radio and television programs to compete for the 1961 Ohio State Awards must be in by January 9, 1961. The awards will be announced at the thirty- first annual IERT in Columbus, Ohio, April 26-29. This year’s program classes include a special elec¬ tion-year award for TV. For the first time, TV en¬ tries will be accepted on videotape in addition to film or kinescope recordings. More information and entry blanks may be ob¬ tained from Dr. I. Keith Tyler, IERT, 154 N. Oval Drive, Columbus 10, Ohio. NAEBers May Tour World in '61 Plans are afoot for a special tour of the broadcasting systems of the world during the summer of 1961. The tour will last six to eight weeks, and will cost $1500 to $2000, if the Iron Curtain countries are in¬ cluded—less if they are not. Those interested in the tour should contact Harold Hill, NAEB administra¬ tive vice president. Harry Skornia, past president of the NAEB, will conduct the tour. Dr. Skornia has had considerable experience conducting such tours in the past. Group Insurance Plan Being Investigated The NAEB staff is currently investigating the pos¬ sibilities of a group health and accident policy ex¬ clusively for NAEB Individual members. Those in¬ terested in participating in such a plan are asked to contact Harold Hill at NAEB Headquarters. If a sufficient number of members indicate an interest, details will be worked out as soon as possible. • The NAEB is also considering offering another type of insurance—group catastrophe accident protec¬ tion (accidental death, dismemberment, and permanent total disability). This would be offered to members of staffs of institutional members as well as to Individual members of NAEB. Through such a group plan, members can get rates ranging from $.90 and $1.25 per $1,000 per person per year; individual coverage of this nature costs $1.75 and up per $1,000. Final rates depend on how many people actually are interested. While more detailed information will be sent to members soon, it would be helpful if those im terested in such coverage would indicate their interest at this time. merry Christma
