Carlson Problem Daytime serials have been pOpular with American house- wives for over three decades. Experts believe that serial content is a-principal factor in their popularity. In l9hl Rudolph Arnheim conducted a content analysis of the radio soap Operas; the problem of this thesis was to determine the extent to which the content of television's daytime serials has changed since the days of radio and since Arnheim's study. This thesis includes (1) a study of the develOpment of the radio daytime serial, (2) an analysis of the audience studies concerning effects of the audio soap Operas, (3) an examination of radio production techniques, (A) a brief history of the televised daily drama, (5) a content analysis of a representative group of video daytime serials, and (6) a comparison of the data gathered in this contemporary television study with the data provided in Arnheim's early radio study. Procedure Background material for this thesis was gleaned from numerous books and periodicals. To secure the necessary data, a monitor report was completed for each television serial episode observed.

    MILESTONES IN NETWORK RADIO: SUGGESTIONS FOR A BASIC COLLECTION OF NETWORK RADIO PROGRAMS ThesIs Ior the Degree of M. A. MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY John Edward Carl 196-4 THESIS IINHIWIIUHIWNIIIHIIWI 31293 00686 1334 i LIBRARY Michigan State University 6-» 3:34 1 W15 AUé 2 71999 ABSTRACT MILESTONES IN NETWORK RADIO: SUGGESTIONS FOR A BASIC COLLECTION OF NETWORK RADIO PROGRAMS by John Edward Carl To listen again to the programs of network radio would be enlightening for several reasons: the programs would provide a new view of network history, they would offer a direct study of various examples of sound and dramatic techniques used on radio, they would offer a fresh understanding of radio's popular art, they would reflect something of the life and times of that society which heard the broadcasts, and, most of all, the radio programs would vividly illustrate what the sound of network radio was really like. And in order that people may have the opportunity to hear again the broadcasts of network radio, recordings of these broad- casts should be gathered and held in a sound library. This sound library, then, would be a central location where one could go to check-out certain broadcasts for study. However: before a library can begin to accumulate its docu- ments, an evaluation process should be undertaken to decide which broadcasts were the important contributions to radio's history. It is, then, the purpose of this study to compile a list of significant broadcasts for such a sound library. More specifically, the purpose of this project is to both cate- gorically list the important programs, voices, and events that we re a part of the four major networks, and to give a brief explanation John Edward Carl of why each was important.

    Daytime Radio Programming for the Homemaker 1926-1966 By Morleen Getz Rouse Long imprisoned within the four walls of her kitchen, as were millions of her sisters in suburban cottages and city apartments, she drifted through her traditional historic role, remaining prosaically at home and living through the old monotony of caring for husband, house, and family.
