AIR WAVES

Produced by Pathe. Sponsored by RCA. "Tells a spectacular, advertiser-produced story of radio broadcasting, beginning with scenes of its earliest formative stages and developing up to its present-day advanced status. Includes the highlights of an NBC Studio Tour through New York City, and an unusually effective montage sequence which illustrates the enormous amount of work required to prepare a program for broadcasting." "The closing scenes show the NBC Symphony Orchestra on the air playing the Introduction to the Third Act of Lohengrin." "Nontechnical, contains no historical material, appears to be from an earlier film on broadcasting. Not decidedly appealing to secondary students. Technically quite acceptable." J. Frederic Andrews
