MEMORANDUM FOR: Director, FBIS
FROM: Chief, London Bureau
THROUGH: Chief, Operations Group
SUBJECT: Monthly Report--London Bureau--June 1983
The event of the year--and a first for the Monitoring Service--was
the meeting of the BBC Board of Governors and Board of Management
at Caversham Park on 23 June. Bureau Chief was invited to
meet the dignitaries, including retiring Chairman George Howard and
Chairman-Designate Stuart Young, at cocktails preceding the luncheon
in the conference room. The grounds were spruced up for the occasion,
floral arrangements graced the entry hall and canteen, the newly
arrived Roset cable (all 5,000 pounds of it) was discreetly secreted
behind shrubbery, and new roofing over the chapel area was completed
and the rubbish whisked away. The weather cooperated--overcast but
no rain, at least not until after the ceremonial planting of three
trees by the governors, the culmination of the day's activities.
The local media were preoccupied much of the month predicting the
outcome and assessing the results of the 9 June British elections
and the continuing maneuvers over leadership of the Labor Party.
Monitorial/Editorial
1. The editorial and PMU staffs were both hard-pressed by the two-
day CPSU Central Committee plenum followed by the USSR Supreme
Soviet session, at which Andropov was elected chairman of the
Presidium. The editors were hit almost at the same time by
Polish events, the eight-day visit to Poland by the Pope followed
by meetings of the Sejm. Both events produced great quantities
of paper--speeches, reports, and service messages--with the papal
visit, in editorial eyes, emerging as the clear winner.

2. PMU's newsbreaks are not yet routine, but the pressfax IZVESTIYA ?:
was the first source for the text of the statement on the
Eastern bloc meeting in Moscow on 28 June. The statement and the
list of delegates were processed and filed by a PMU team half an
hour before the material began coming in from TASS.
Technical
1. New BBC Chief Engineer replacing
was immediately initiated into the Roset arena as he began
making arrangements for laying the cable from the dish to the
Dish Control Room.
2. Bureau communicators spent the month training on the new Facit
equipment which will be replacing the DSTE. The quality of the
printout is excellent, impressing bureau and BBC personnel,
but the control facilities are a step backward from the failsafe
DSTE.
3. The bureau experienced a five-hour downtime on its own switch
on 25 June, with Washington in turn covering for London. On
15 June the Nicosia standby circuit was activated for two days,
adding 700 incoming-outgoing messages to the bureau's own heavy
traffic at the time of the CPSU plenum and the Supreme Soviet
session.
1. Personnel changeover time was highlighted with the arrival on

After 13 years on air Radio Medway
changes its name
as a major traffic
experiment begins
SAFETY DRIVE
by ANDREA MICHELL
The teachers' report, Popular
TV and Schoolchildren, pub-
lished last week, was a useful
addition to the body of informa-
tion about the effects of televi-
sion on children, said BBC
Director-General Alasdair
Milne.
The BBC had noted its points and
discussed them with senior Govern-
ment ministers.
But, Alasdair Milne stressed, the
Government-backed report, com-
missioned by Sir Keith Joseph, used
a very small sample and di 4w on a
narrow range of experience.
Fifteen teachers spent five weeks
looking at television and then asked
their pupils what they liked to watch.
Understanding
"In some ways," said Alasdair
Milne, "the comments of the chil-
dren themselves incorporated in the
report show better understanding of
the situations portrayed and give
more illuminating views than those
of their elders."
He also pointed out that the BBC
already had a General Advisory
Council, Regional Advisory Coun-
cils, a Continuing Education Coun-
cil, Schools Advisory Council and
Local Radio Councils advising on
this aspect of output.
The teachers' report claimed it
found little evidence among TV pro-
ducers of "a concerned awareness of
just how powerful an influence their

Radio Medway is to participate in a major experiment aimed at preventing
traffic jams and accidents.
And after being on air since 1970, the local radio station is also changing its name to
Radio Kent - giving it a county image - to coincide with the experiment, which also
involves the IBA, the Royal Automobile Club and the Department of Transport.
The objective is to see whether constantly
updated traffic news on car radios -
"advertised" by signs along major roads -
has an effect on road safety and traffic flow.
Starting on July 17, Radio Kent will
broadcast information about road condi-
tions and hazards in the county, at 15-
minute intervals, constantly updated by
Kent police.
The information is particularly aimed at
drivers using the two trunk routes between
London and the Channel ports. Radio Kent
is an outstandingly suitable station for tak-
jng,.,part in_the -trial.. Much of the traffic on
the main routes - the A2/M2 and A20/M20
- is non local, and it includes a high
proportion of juggernauts and heavy goods
vehicles.
At weekends and holiday periods, when
motorists on their way to and from the
Continent and Kentish resorts join the
stream, the flow is very heavy.
Signs advertising the traffic news and
giving Radio Kent's frequency are going up
along the trunk routes and at Dover and
Folkestone docks. They are being erected in
pairs, so that drivers travelling fast can see
then in rapid sequence and be more easily
able to read them.
The BBC is carrying out a survey to see
whether drivers find the signs adequate,
whether they have difficulty tuning to the
local station if they decide to listen, and
whether the broadcast information is useful.
A similar experiment is being conducted
on a stretch of the M4 west of London,
involving a commercial station, Radio 210,
based in Reading.
Growth at
Monitoring
by CHRIS STENT
Outgoing BBC Chairman, the
newly ennobled George How-
ard, together with Chairman
designate Stuart Young and
Director-General Alasdair
Milne, took time out from a
Board of Governors meeting at
Caversham Park last week A o
plant three young cedar trees.
The planting marked the first
meeting of the BBC's Board of
Governors ever to be held at
Caversham, which houses the
BBC's Monitoring Service, and the
new trees were planted in place of
those lost in previous harsh
winters.
"It was a unique occasion for
Caversham," said Monitoring Ser-
vice head David Witherow whose
(continued page 7)
Medway's present home in a former news-
paper office.
Said station manager Harold Rogers:
"This is an exciting and challenging time for
all of us at Radio Kent. We have a large and
loyal audience at present. But we have to
build on that success, and satisfy the needs
of the whole county. I'm confident we can
achieve that ambition."
One consequence of the travel news
experiment will be longer hours on the air.
Radio Kent will be broadcasting until 10pm
every day except Friday, when it will keep
going with special programmes and travel
news until midnight for the benefit of
weekend commuters.
For the hand-over from Radio Medway to
Radio Kent, however, the situation is using
a vehicle of a different kind. The station will
broadcast through the night on Friday, and
early Saturday morning John Thurston will
inaugurate Radio Kent - broadcasting live
from the basket of a balloon in flight -
another "first" for local radio.
John and the station's engineer-in-charge,
Colin Grant, are passengers in the balloon
which is acting as quarry in an Anglo-French
balloon chase to celebrate 200 years of
human flight.
By a curious coincidence, the event the
race commemorates - the first balloon
ascent in England with human passengers -
was from the garden of a London house
belonging to Lord Foley, in 1783. The site of
Lord Foley's garden is now occupied by the
Langham, on the site of which the BBC's
New Broadcasting Centre is projected to
rise up in the next few years.

"This trial scheme aims to achieve easier
and safer journeys for the millions of people
using our major roads," said Lynda
Chalker, Transport Under-Secretary, last
week.
Harold Rogers, Radio Medway's man-
ager since its opening, and programme
organiser Clive Lawrence have the task of
not only holding the attention of through
travellers waiting for traffic news, but also
ensuring the experiment will not be annoy-
ing to non-driving regular listeners.
"The key to success," said Clive Law-
rence, "is giving the latest traffic news in an
informal manner, while maintaining enter-
taining programmes."
Identity jingle
To help the entertainment along Radio
Kent has a brand-new package of identity
jingles composed and performed by Gordon
Giltrap and called The Garden of England.
Radio Kent's expansion eastward to
become the BBC's latest "county" station
will take place over the next few months. A
mini-radio station with its own studios and
staff at Canterbury will provide a daily opt-
out from the main Radio Kent programmes
for local news and information, in the man-
ner of Radio Furness.
Small news studios at Folkestone and
Thanet are also in train. And the picture will
be completed in two years' time when Radio
Kent's staff at Chatham move into a new
purpose-built station headquarters at Sun
Wharf, on the river bank not far from Radio
