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.

  • Not-So-Famous Products Were Radio Sponsors Part I
    Not-So-Famous Products Were Radio Sponsors Part I "And don't forget your change." --- Closing of Avalon Cigarette commercial Lincoln, Me. (DG)--- Since network radio began, many products either had their names on the programs they sponsored, or when direct selling became a reality, were featured in commercials. Many of these products are famous in the United States--- and in some cases, worldwide. We already know of Ivory Soap's floating ability, champion athletes eating Wheaties, and Johnny's call for Philip Morris. Since you already know about these products, we're NOT going to talk about them or any other famous product in this article. This is the first of a series of articles that will give those obscure products some recognition. Let's begin with a product that was a mystery to me until a couple of months ago (as of February 3, 2001 when this article was being prepared). The product in question is Cal-Aspirin. When I was doing my own personal research on old time radio, I came across Cal-Aspirin as a sponsor of 3 different daytime serials during the 1930's and early 1940's. I did have a clue it was made by Sterling Drug, the people who made Bayer Aspirin--- which explained why I had a hard time finding it in the magazines I have. Not that they really care (and rightfully, they shouldn't), Sterling Drug is the most difficult company for a researcher (like me) to find its products in magazines that were printed during radio's golden age.
