is new only in its date ot discovery. The force that makes it possible was ever here. Education, too, is a torce. Old in con- yet seemingly it has only begun to show its possibilities. In the founders of our democracy realized the value of education, and advocated that its privileges be extended to all alike ..... In certain places, education has permeated the life of a people and has become a mighty force for good, in other sections, it has not even made its advent. There is need to re-discover its force and power, there is need to refine it, but primarily there is need to place educational opportunities within reach of all. Is not radio part- answer to our question as to how this may be done? Educators may well pay tribute to such pioneers in this field as Walter Darnrosch. He has blazed a trail that will no doubt lead to broader horizons in the educational world. A new path has been opened, our goal for education will come nearer, or recede, in proportion to the pace We set for ourselves. .San Jlntonio Uioand at education DR. IAMES P. HOLLERS ..........

.glponaona at Station C5 05 Ji S l Dr. lames P. Hollers Broadcasting an educational program for the youth of San Antonio that is fundamentally sound and thoroughly adequate is the common goal of the two organizations we salute as the sponsors of Station G. B. H, S. The Board of Education, representing the citizens, and the P.T.A., representing the parents, are agencies having the same ultimate objectives. Smooth transmission has been made possible through the co- operation of these two agencies. We need only to read the objectives of the P.T.A. in their yearbook to know how vitally interested and keenly alive they are to the needs of the youth of our city. Were it not for the untiring efforts of these two organizations the circuit for successful broadcasting would be broken, and Station G.B.l-l.S. would no longer go on the air .
