Begins Fifth Year
Game Broadcasts
The Humble Oil 4 Refining Co.
today announced that it has again
contracted with the Southwest Con-
ference for the exclusive privilege
of broadcasting Conference foot-
ball games. This is the fifth con-
secutive season in which th* Huna-
ble company has undertaken to
bring play-by-play descriptions of
outstanding conference contests to
radio followers of the game.
The broadcasts, it waa explain
ed, are designed to broaden the
service rendered by Humble Ser-
vice Stations and dealers, to in-
crease interest in Southwestern
football and attendance at games,
and to enable the 14,000 Humble
employees to follow the Conference
race as it develops.
Plana for the broadcasting of
specific games are thus far only
tentative, as actual games to be
broadcast are decided on from
week to week as the season prog-
reses. These tentative plans, how-
ever, call for broadcasting approx-
imately 36 garnet.

stations will be used to bring the
games to interested listeners. Sta-
tions which will carry specific
games will be announced on Fri-
days preceding the broadcasts.
A capable staff of play-by-play
announcers has been retained to
handle the broadcasts. AH are
familiar to Texas radio football
fans, alFs^B thoroughly acquainted
with the Southwest Conference—
the teams, the players, the coach-
es, the various styles of play.
Topping the list is Kern Tips,
the fame of whose play-by-play
descriptions of exciting Southwest
Conference football has spread
from coast to coast Tips brings to
broadcasting a keen knowledge of
football, an ability aptly to des-
cribe what he sees on the field, a
sharp reportorial sense, a ready
wit, five years of play-by-play ex-
perience. He is acknowledged to
be the peer of any football broad-
caster in the land and the superior
of most.
Number two man on the Hum-
ble announcer list is Cy Leland of
Fort Worth. Everybody who fol-
lows Southwest Conference football
knbws Cy Leland. An all-American
football player and honor student
at Texas Christian University a
decade ago, Leland embodies the
best tradition of this most red-
blooded of American college sports.
Hal Thompson and Eddie Dunn,
both of Dallas, complete the basic
list of play-by-play men. Both are
popular, active radio personalities.
Thompson is sports specialist of
Station WFAA. He has a pleasing^
voice, a good knowledge of the
game and a telling ability to des-
cribe play on the field.
Eddie Dunn la one of the most
versatile radio men in Texas end
brings to Humble’s broadcasts
wide following of listeners.
These four announcers will be
supplemented from time to time
by other capable men aa needed.
On the technical aide, equipment
this year has been improved to
keep pace with the rapid techno-
osfical progress of radio generally.
The engineering eteff which in-
stalls and operates this equipment
is as competent and experienced
as the announcers. Moat of the
technical men have been working
with the Humble Company on foot-
ball broadcasts since the first year
Humble undertook them.
