As Newsman ana
Cedric Foster, who for more
than twelve years has been New
England's only daily coast-to-coast
commentator, is heard on the
Mutual and Yankee Networks and
he is known from Maine to Texas
for his able and astute interpreta
tions of the news at home and
abroad. Heard over more than
four hundred fifty radio stations
in every State in the Union, Mon
day through Friday, Mr. Foster
addresses a daily audience of sev
eral million people because that
audience has found him to be
consistently accurate.
Cedric Foster, who became the
first-daytime news commentator
on the Mutual Network in October
of 1940, and who came to Boston
with the Yankee Network to con
tinue his broadcasts over Mutual
in 1941, was not satisfied to re
main at his desk during World
War II. He spent three months
in the battle zones of the Pacific
as an accredited correspondent to
both the Army and the Navy. He
was aboard an aircraft carrier as
it rode to action off Japan and was
with three infantry divisions in
the Philippines. On this trip he
covered more than forty thousand
miles by plane, carrier, and jeep,
visiting Pearl Harbor, Eniweitok,
Saipan, Guam, Kwajalein, and
many islands of the Philippines.
In the Philippines he rode more
than twelve hundred miles over
rough terrain in a jeep.
Cedric Foster is, first and last,
a good newspaperman. His splen
did training, supported by exten
sive travel (he has covered up-

wards of three-quarters of a mil-1
lion miles in the past thirty years)
has equipped him to handle in
telligently one of the most diffi
cult assignments—which is seeing
the news behind the news and tell
ing the public what is there. j
Since August of 1949, Mr. Foster
has made five trips to Europe,
and from January to October of
1951, he spent three hundred ten
hours in the air. His journeys
have taken him to England,
France, Germany, Switzerland,
Spain, Holland, Denmark, Sweden,
Finland, Yugoslavia, Turkey,
Greece, Israel, Iran, Cyprus, Italy,
Japan, and Korea. While in Greece

Methodist Set
$60,000 Goal For
Plant Expansion
A supper meeting of 125 work
ers was held last night (Thurs
day) at the Community Hall as the
beginning of a campaign to se
cure pledges for the building pro
gram of the Central Methodist
Church. On today and tomorrow,

Bob Bruner is chairman of the

to complete the over-all expansion
program of the church adopted
two years ago. The remodeling
of the sanctuary and installation
of a new organ was completed a

paid for upon its completion. The
congregation is now in the process
of raising approximately $60,000
for the erection of another large
section to the present education
al plant, known as the Mary
Frances Wright Memorial Building.

chairmanship of Judge Steve C.
Griffith: has authorized the build
ing committee, under the chair
manship of George K. Dominick,
to raise half of the funds and be
gin construction. The plan for
raising funds calls for the erec
tion of the building the latter part
of this year, with one half of the
funds on hand, and the removal
of all temporary indebtedness by
the end of 1954.
