Iutual is the first to offer to

I t is understood that the boardof directors of the festival unanimously approved the proposals ofMutual, as secured .by WPNF, andexpressed gratitude for the workthat local radiomen are doing topublicize Brevard and Transylvania from coast·to-coast.
Regarding the two programs,Mutual has agreed to pay all costs,which are estimated to be around~ O O . I t is also stated that in linewith the policy of radio broad

IThe industry practice, it is understood, is that unless programs arebought and paid for, no exclusiveagrecments should be made.I WPNF officials have pledged

"During the past years we haveoriginated a large number of programs from the music camp which~ a v e been carried across North

One of the greatest values orthe music camp and festival to
Irevard and Transylvania countyis publicity in the press and overthe air and this newspaper, asIwell as WPNF, has cooperated to
['chieve those objectives. Last yearMutual's offer to broadcast at

Exclusive network broadcast rightsor festival programs had been given to CBS, which actually carriedtwo programs, <:Ine on a Saturdayafternoon and one on Sunday.
