Through the News Bureau, which is a part of the journalism department, passes the news that keeps Utah State in the eyes of the State. It informs people of what is happening at the College. The Bureau keeps intermountain hometown newspapers posted concerning awards, honors, activities of students from each area. A bulletin board of current college happenings as they appear in print is also maintained. From the English department come students who will be the literary critics and teachers of tomorrow.

 Undismayed by the maze of plugs and knobs confronting him, a KVSC announcer goes “on the air”. M RS. Hirsch: Is the kettle boiling, Sally? Sally: Yes, mum. Shall I make the tea now? Mrs. Hirsch: Yes, and then you can take this tray up to Mr. Anderson’s room. Sally: Yes, mum. Is he ill, do you think? I haven’t seen him in the last two days. Mrs. Hirsch: I don’t know what to think, I’m sure. I offered to get a doctor for him but he wouldn’t let me. Sally: Well, there must be something wrong with him or he wouldn’t just lie there on his bed doing nothing. He hasn’t even been out to eat. Mrs. Hirch: I know. On second thought I’ll take the tray up to him myself. You can start cleaning up the kitchen until I come back. Sally: Okay, mum. Here, I’ll open the door for you. Sound: Door opening, footsteps upstairs, faint jiggle of crockery on tray. Three knocks on door. Anderson: (Muffled through door) Come in. Sound: Door opening. • Radio adaptation of Ernot Hemingway' The KilU-rt, by Frank L. Maclmoah. 19
