We have learned kittle about qualitative aspects of (listening; what is radio doing to listener tastes?

All profits will be used to help defray foreign student’s expenses, Bob Carey, committee chairman, stated. Among these expenses are unremittable fees not provided by University scholarships, text books, incidental living, and emergency expenses. Carey urged University students to participate in the drawing for several reasons.
