Plan Future Programs.
Among the high lights planned
for future programs, Mr.. Smith
said, are broadcasts of an induction
into an honor society with presen-
tation of special awards, and even
February graduation. Another
program is being planned dealing
with collection at the Corcoran
Gallery Of Art, which schoolchil-
dren now are visiting under special
arrangements with the gallery.
The chairman was enthusiastic
about the progress Of the programs
and said he thought them educa-
tional to the teachers and parents,
as well as the children. Many of
the adults, he felt, have never OBJ
served a>radio station in operation,
and he noted the large groups of
parents attending the broadcasts
by the children.

highs have been general Mr.. Smith

ticular fields In Francis Junior

which fan mail from the program
of the Francis children was read.
