A how-to-do-it of radio by one who has done it- Margaret Cuthbert is a well-known executive of NBC, in charge of children's and women's programs.

There are scripts too for home practice and acting which include selections of varied type, -- sports, news, serials, mystery plays, literary classics, quiz programs, etc. A bibliography and a glossary add to the preference value. Good material for a specialized audience- for public libraries and school libraries.
