At the suggestion of the press who rated it so highly; and feel Strongly that those who missed it should be given an opportunity to hear it, NBC will rebroadcast "Assignment; U.S.A." at 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 4. That is tlie reading and analyzing done by the Script Division of NBC's Program Department to select for dramatization on NBC's "Words At War" series the most vital and important books of the year. Typical of the 40 books selected to date for "Words At War" dramatization was Selden Menefee's "Assignment: U. S. A." Menefee covered America in a 15,000- mile trek. He put in his book what he saw and heard: racial prejudice, anti-Semitism,. indifference.
