Inc.. instituted a unique type of program on radio station WGHQ in Kingston. N.Y. He decided that the naturalization ceremonies held periodically at the county supreme court in Kingston should be broadcast. As a result. radio listeners in the Kingston area have been afforded the opportunity of taking part in a ceremony that represents a highly cherished moment in the lives of countless individuals. Prior to and immediately following the actual ceremony. Mr. Thayer conducts interviews with the newly naturalized citizens who are asked to convey to the listeners their thoughts and feelings on this very important occasion. The ceremony itself is a moving one. and includes the presentation of the color guard by the Womens Auxiliary of the VFW. I believe that Harry Thayer is to be commended for his initiative in this area of broadcasting which has resulted in several broadcasting awards for WGHQ.
