Results of Olympic Games

Special Broadcast by

KFI

Arranged

ME: E. ©. HANDS, General Manager-of the New Zealand Broadcasting Board, announces that negotiations which have been proceeding between the Board and station KFI, Los Angeles, for some time past, have resulted in special arrangements having now been finalised for daily resumes to be broadcast by KFI of the results of the various events held at the Olympic Games at Los Angeles. Particular reference will be made to the results of events in which the New Zealand teams are participating. It is not proposed to carry out a re-broadcast, but the resumes will be written down and broadcast from all YA stations after completion. It is expected that results will be available to listeners at about 8 p.m. The Olympic Games commence with the Grand Parade or opening ceremony at Los Angeles. on Saturday, July 30, and the only event scheduled for that date is the weight-lifting contest. It is not, therefore, anticipated that anything of interest will be available to listeners for the date mentioned; but as the sports proper commence in Los Angeles the following day, Sunday, July 31, which corresponds with Monday, August 1, in New Zealand, full information will be broadcast on August 1 at 8 p.m. approximately, and each evening thenceforth at the same hour. eT eee Te ST Se TTT eT S eT Tort
