Networkers Start Fall Broadcasts Tonight at 8:30

Breaking a summer-long "off the air" silence, the Crimson Network will tonight resume broadcasting to points throughout the University, Ray A. Goldberg '48, Network President, announced this afternoon. Programs will begin at 7:30 o'clock and will continue until 12:05 o'clock on a Monday through Friday evening schedule.

First-night features slated by the Network include a 15-minute talk by Dan H. Fenn '44, CRIMSON president of 1942-43 and now assistant dean of freshmen, who will present a review of College activities during the summer, a brief summary of the present scene, and a view of the University future. At 9:30 o'clock a half-hour special broadcast will feature a transcription of the prodigious registration in Memorial Hall last Thursday and Friday, with on-the-spot interviews of returning veterans and other participants in the pre-term ordeal.

The Music One Hour

Old Network standbys will continue. Tuesdays and Thursdays from eight o'clock until nine o'clock the customary Music One programs will again assist undergraduate musicians in relatively painless homework sessions. Although the Network will not cover College football contests as previously announced since Boston's WHDH has assumed the broadcasting rights, post-game dance music is definitely on the agenda. Sometime during this term, the Network plans to extend its wiring facilities into the Yard and Business School areas. Service at Stillman Infirmary is again projected. Each bed will be equipped with "hush tone" speakers, whose installation will be completed today.

Network competition with begin next Monday and Tuesday evening in quest of technical men, radio dramatists, playwrights and actors.

During the critical years from 1943 on, the Network continued uninterrupted operation. In collaboration with the Service News, wartime publication of the CRIMSON, nightly College news broadcasts were presented as a special feature.
