Scholarships
Being Offered
In Radio Field
In celebration of its fifteenth
anniversary, the National Academy
of Broadcasting in Washington, D.
C., is offering several valuable
scholarships to script writers in a
contest which will close Febru
ary 1.
The grand prize will be a full
semester (16 weeks) of profession
al training in the residence school
in Washington. This scholarship
will cover all phases of broadcast
ing studio work, including script
and continuity writing, diction,
foreign language pronunciation,
music appreciation, radio drama,
control-board operation, program
building and direction. Other
prizes will consist of residence
courses in announcing, continuity
writing or production and a basic
course offered by correspondence.
Awards will be made by qualified
judges on the merits of scripts sub
mitted. Any type of original con
tinuity, commercial or dramatic,
will be accepted.
"The demand for traih.ed person
nel in radio is growing so rapidly,"
says Miss Alice Keith, president
of the broadcasting academy and
author of the textbook, How to
Speak and Write for Radio, "that
we are unable to fill all the re
quests for qualified announcers
and writers sent us by stations
throughout the country. In the
class that was graduated in Sep
tember practically all were placed
in stations within two weeks after
commencement."
"Trained script writers who are
able to announce, produce or do
public relations work are in spec
ial demand. College women inter
ested in conducting broadcasts for
women and children or in direct
ing programs, are needed every
where, General radio training for
both men and women is most valu
able as broadcasters are often
called on to double in various
branches. Specialized training
points out the way to make use
of varying talents."
Any studeWg interested is in
vited to write directly to the Na
tional Academy of Broadcasting,
3338 16th Street, N. W., Washing
ton 10, D. C.
