use of marine radio
telephones has - been
published by the non-profit
Radio Technical Com
mission for Marine Services
(RTMC).
The " easy-to-understand
booklet, entitled "How to
Use Your Marine
Radiotelephone", was
produced with the new
radiotelephone owner in
mind although it contains
valuable reference in
formation for all marine
radio users.
The handbook was
researched and written by a
special - task force
representing radiotelephone
manufacturers; the F.C.C.,
U.S. Coast Guard, and other
marine-related government :
agencies;, the U.S. Power
Squadrons and U.S. Coast
Guard Auxiliary; the
marine radio services of
A.T.&T.; boating writers;
and professional ship-
masters.
Included in its 72 pages
are sections on
radiotelephone licenses and
how they are obtained,
installation instructions,
selecting and using the
correct channels for VHF
FM, single sldeb and radios
for ; long-range com
munications, routine and
emergency operating
procedures with sample
scenarios for ordinary and .
distress calls, and pro
dures to place a call to
or from a vessel underway
through ' the ' telephone
company. . ' v ' ,

Dalton R. Proctor, 4-H
specialist stated, "There
were three outstanding
speakers that made you feel
like going home and setting
the world on fire in your
local and county 4-H Club.
There were 25 workshops
and discussion groups. As
county project leader, I and
87 other leaders from North
Carolina heard an outstand
ing 50 member 4-H musical
group from Georgia sing
about the fabulous things 4
H'ers are doing all over the
South."
-"There are many times in
my daily routines that I
have questioned whether
4-H is worth all the time and
effort it requires from adult
leaders. But after having ex
perienced this past week,
the wonderful things 4-H'ers
and leaders are doing, the
fellowship of truly fine
Christian people dedicated
to a life of working with
youth, then I know that
there is time and it is worth
it as we all strive to 'Make
the Best Better' in our clubs,
our communities and our
countries.' (1975 leader)
