TRADE NEWS December 1, 1955 NBC -TV 'NEWS CARAVAN' PLANS EXPANSION OF TIMELY ANALYSES OF LEADING COMMENTATORS OF RADIO, TELEVISION AND NEWSPAPERS Plans for the expanded use of timely and penetrating news analyses by leading radio, television and newspaper commentators have been announced by Francis C. McCall, producer of the NBC-TV NEWS CARAVAN (Mondays through Fridays, 7:^5 to 8 p.m., EST). "The regular use of special reports on particular aspects of the news from leading experts in their fields will serve to augment and pinpoint our customary wide coverage of all phases of the news," Mr. McCall said today. The news specialists will be introduced from time to time on the program by John Cameron Swayze, the long-time regular "News Caravan" commentator. Some of those who have already been called upon for special reports are James Reston and William S. White of the New York Times; Roscoe Drummond of the New York Herald Tribune; Peter Edson of NEA; Leo Durocher, now an NBC executive, and NBC commen¬ tators Joseph C. Harsch, Chet Huntley, Bill Henry, Richard Harkness and Ray Scherer. (more ) PRESS DEPARTMENT, NATIONAL BROADCASTING COMPANY, 30 ROCKEFELLER PLAZA, NEW YORK 20, NEW YORK
