decided whether broadcasting re-
mains as we Inow it now or becomes
completely revamped. If it is changed,
frequency modulation will be a vital
link iiu our radio structure. This
revolutionary form of radio broad-

ing February 28. Jerome Wiesner,
Chief Radio Technician and Assist-
ant to Director Waldo Abbot, is
