WHRB to Broadeast IAB Basketball Games

The six remaining home basketball games will be broadcast over radio station WHRB, starting with the Princeton game on February 7. Evan Berlock '56, program director, announced yesterday.

WHRB's "Operation Play-by-Play" get its final approval from the H.A.A. recently. The H.A.A.'s decision came after more than 60 percent of 1.500 students polled by the station indicated they would listen to the broadcasts. Electricians have just laid a direct wire from the I.A.B. to the station.

The station also hopes to carry away games from Princeton. Dartmouth and Yale. "The chief obstacle to carrying away games." Berlack said, "is that local college radio stations do not have wires running from their gym to the station. And for WHRB to install their own is very expensive."

This will be the first time that WHRB has broadcast an extended series of play-by-play programs.
