Articulate Professions
RCHITECTS would seem to be among the most articulate of professional men--in fact, where would radio be without them? They have rallied to fill Winter Course talks on planning, they have brought colour harmony and design down to microphone level, they have gladly stooped to women’s session discussions on the ideal home. And now they are manning a new series from 2YA on The Progress ef Architecture. Law is the only other profession with a comparable record of radio well-doing, but here the emphasis (Famous Frauds, Famous Trials, Flint of the Flying Squad) has perhaps been more on entertainment than enlightenment. Dr. Turbott and Dr. Mac have been lonely speakers on medicine. Surely, now that our architects have blazed the trail, there is room for a nice frank series on The Progress of Medical Science? Its listener-appeal would be considerable, since it’s a well-
known fact that medical memoirs sell like hot cakes, whereas it takes a BenWenuto Cellini to sell reminiscences of
‘the finer arts.
