"Radio was recognized by those in attendance at the Corvallis convention as a means that can no longer be ignored by the college or extension editor for the dissemination of information."
Introduction: "Extension editors are outgrowing their title. An individual in information work for the Agricultural Extension Service today must be more than an editor; more than a radio or news man; more than a teacher; more than an experienced specialist or agent who knows how to write and speak through mass media. If we in agricultural extension information are to realize the full potential of our work, we must develop a new profession."
