Just as the new man these days is a spe- cialist in his particular field, so must the new and progressive radio station be q specialist in the field of broadCasting. I think the time is close at hand when radio stations will realize this more actively and we will then have athletic stations, Agricultural stations. health sta- tions, and so on.
