    THE DEVELOPMENT OF NATIONAL RADIO EDUCATION IN CANADA 1929-19^9 by TERRENCE ROBERT MORRISON B.Ed., (Secondary), University of British Columbia I966 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS In the Department of EDUCATION We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA July, 1967 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and Study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by hi;i; representatives.

Department of t-DUCfc i JO r\J The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date rXt^q • 2?T/ 6 7- ii ABSTRACT Radio broadcasting, from its inception, was recognized as a medium with educational possibilities. The decision of the Privy Council in 1931 to vest control of broadcasting in the federal government, therefore, invited Dominion participation in radio education. With the establishment of the CBC, and the implication that it was to develop radio's educational potential, the possibility of having national radio education became more real. National radio education developed in response to four general forces. First, as the depression closed, the CBC was able to stabilize its financial situation, evolve a policy on controversial programming, establish co-operative relations with certain voluntary educational associations, and sponsor a national investigation into school broadcasting.

  • “The Story Is Only the Platter on Which the Personality Is Served”: the Debate Over Media Integrity on CBC Radio’S Literary Arts Programming, 1948–1985
    Research in Brief “The Story Is Only the Platter On Which the Personality Is Served”: The Debate Over Media Integrity on CBC Radio’s Literary Arts Programming, 1948–1985 Ross Allan Eaman Carleton University ABSTRACT The early efforts of CBC Radio to promote Canadian literature through programs such as Canadian Short Stories and its successor, Anthology, gave rise to various issues related to media integrity, including the selection of content, the use of language, and the format of presentation. Even before Robert Weaver retired in 1985, the approach he developed in the 1950s gave way to a different philosophy of literary arts programming, one focusing less on the needs of CanLit and more on the contingencies of radio. As in other cases of textual mi - gration across media, the ontological requirements of the destination medium eventually took precedence. The process by which this shift occurred is examined using the relatively un - explored papers of Weaver and Howard Engel and other documents. KEYWORDS CBC; Literary arts programming RÉSUMÉ Les premiers efforts de la part de CBC Radio pour promouvoir la littérature canadienne au moyen de programmes tels que Canadian Short Stories et son successeur, Anthology, ont soulevé diverses questions concernant l’intégrité des médias, y compris la sélection du contenu, l’usage de la langue et le format de présentation. L’approche développée dans les années 50 par Robert Weaver s’est vue supplanter, même avant sa retraite en 1985, par une philosophie différente envers la programmation en littérature, portant moins sur les besoins de la littérature canadienne et davantage sur ceux de la radio.

  • Entertainment in Mid-20Th Century Collingwood H
    TH ENTERTAINMENT IN MID-20 CENTURY COLLINGWOOD H. David Vuckson In the 21st Century it is hard to visualize a time only 65-70 years ago when homes in Collingwood had no television, computers, taBlets, portable telephones, cell phones, telephone answering machines or social media. Lest one think that the citizens of town were terribly deprived of information and entertainment in those distant days, there were, in fact, quite a number of sources available. As for news, information and music, most people who had a radio listened to the Toronto stations which were the nearest signals (CKBB in Barrie went on the air on August 31, 1949 But could not provide the calibre of programming of the Toronto stations). The CBC had two coast-to-coast English language AM radio networks before television reared its head. The Trans-Canada Network consisted of CBC-owned and privately-owned affiliate radio stations across the country, with CBL Toronto being the flagship. The Dominion Network consisted of the flagship CJBC Toronto while the rest of the stations across the country were privately-owned “affiliates”. These networks played traditional 1 of 13 classical music, organ recitals, dance bands, carried the Metropolitan Opera Broadcasts, dramas and public affairs programmes and were listened to primarily by older generations. There were also children’s programmes like “Kindergarten of the Air” for preschoolers, and public school broadcasts which required the Collingwood Board of Education to purchase a numBer of radios, and, let us not forget hockey broadcasts from Maple Leaf Gardens where the announcer Foster Hewitt was a fixture from the day it opened in 1931.
