The August issue of Mademoiselle shows pictures of a local student in a
two-page spread of the Columbia .University radio station. Judith Horn is
the girl, here in summer school for her third year as member of the University
radio and dramatic classes.

of the high school group learning radio, last winter she entered Columbia
as a freshman where she joined the

the high school students learning

member of a staff already associated
with the system, has been assisting
the Carolina group in organizing the
local station.

Later, the idea spread over the
campus and a so-called broadcasting

entire network of universities and
colleges have built their radio sta
