Writes Scripts For
Education Program


School Radio Workshop, writes
Scripts For Teachers Recruit
ing Programs.
When the gravity of the teacher
shortage in Maryland lead to the
broadcasting of a series of teacher
recruiting programs, Mrs. Marjorie
e. Hoachlander, instructor of the
Radio Workshop of Hagerstown
high school, was selected for the i'm
portant task of writing and prepar-
ing the scripts by the production
staff of station VIDAL, which is pre-
senting the programs in cooperation
with the State Department of Edu-
cation and the Baltimore City
schools.
The fifteen-minute series is broad
cast twice weekly, on Tuesdays and
Thursday at Ills E. S. T. (12:15 D.
S. To under the title Teaching for
Future" The initial broadcast last
week featured DR. Thomas Pullen,
State Superintendent of Public In
struction, on 'There is a shortage of
Teachers" Last Thursdays program,
on Teachers at War;" cited the con-
tribution of Teachers" to the
Army's educational program, with
1t. Col. Joshua Wheeler, a veteran
who has returned to teaching, as
guest speaker.
Today's production will be unique
remote control broadcast from a Bal
timore City elementary school, dur
ing which teacher will conduct an
actual sixth grade nature study les
son.
Mrs. Hoachlander's scripts have
been approved by DR.. Earl F. Haw-
kins, director of Instruction of the
State Department of Education, and
the public relations division of
VIDAL.
Mrs. Hoachlander, who returned
last week from the sixteenth annual
convention of the Institute for Edu-
cation by Radio held in Columbus,
Ohio, May 8 to 6, reports that Mary
land and Missouri are among the
youngest of the pioneers in radio
education, both states having begun
their radio projects this year.
At a meeting on High School
Radio Workshops, Toledo, Ohio, was
reported as making the greatest
strides in this phase of the work,
with radio workshops in each school
m the system, daily student-written
and produced programs, as well as
an average of twelve staff-produced
programs for in-class listening.
Radio educators from all parts of
the country attended the convention
and heard number of stimulating
discussions on the main theme Of
this years gathering, which was the
trend toward more and more public
service programs on local and net
work stations. Recent recommenda-
tons of the FEC (of considerable in
terest to radio isteners) that radio
programs advertise less and serve
the public more, were the subject of
an interesting panel discussions be-
tween cross section of commercial
and educational radio executives.
Mrs. Hoachlander, who organized
the first radio workshop in the local
school system, expressed the hope
that the next five years will bring
an extensive radio workshop pro-
gram in the schools of both Wash
ington County and the State.
