In Chicago

The Tribune and The Herald and Examiner, Chicago's best known*morning papers outdo one another. The Tribune arranged to broadcast programs of music, news and general information from the Zenith Edgewater Beach station (WJAZ). The Herald-Examiner (Hearst) has made arrangements to join with Sears Roebuck and Co. in a new station to be opened in April and to be known as WBBX. This station will give special attention to agriculture, weather, financial reports.

The Tribune in announcing its new attempt declared : "Recognizing the constantly growing interest in radio in the country, we have come to the conclusion that its similarity to the demands for information, instruction and entertainment commonly made upon metropolitan newspapers, brings it automatically into our field of activity."

*The other Chicago morning newspaper is the Journal of Commerce.
