discussed Radio in Wartime
commenting on radios function
and problems of today and radio
of the future, specifically tele-
vision. Radio of the future will
be instrumental in the creation
of a new type of acting and dra-
matte presentation required by
television production.
Radio is comprised of two ele-
ments-the sender and the re-
ceiver. All radio programs
group themselves into one Of
these classifications, news, edu-
cational and amusement. Mr..
Clarke then pointed out the diff
ferent divisions within these
three main groupings - the
neWseaster as differentiat e q
from the commentator, educa-
tional and morale building pro-
gramS-and our escape pro-
grams or those for amusement.
He pointed out that one OF rad
los problems of today and the
future is to supply good pro-
grams for children. Programs
that will appeal to the child lis
tener and also be approved Of
by his parents.
Mr.. Clarke was a most able
and interesting speaker and full
ly appreciated by his listeners
who felt it a privilege to hear
one of radios most promising
and up and coming young exec
utives.
