THE MARCH OF TIME

CONTENTS:

     News dramatizations and a documentary of the current events of the day, The March Of Time first aired over CBS 03/06/31.  The initial idea came from a local ten minute news broadcast over WLW, Cincinnati in 1928.  The station lacked the news gathering resources of the larger stations,  so it was decided to dramatize the news.  The idea caught on in a big way and the program began syndication to other stations.  Soon a group of actors, sound effects personnel and writers were gathered to produced this first rate series at CBS.  There was nothing like it before and shortly thereafter developed its critics and promoters.  Last heard over ABC on 07/26/45.
