Bill Kling, KSJR-FM general manager; and Father Colman Barry, Order of Saint Benedict and cofounder of Minnesota Public Radio, speak as part of Weyerhaeuser studios dedication ceremony at KSJR-FM.

Studios are dedicated to the memory of Maud Moon Weyerhaeuser, a patron of the arts, professional singer, sponsor of numerous young performers during the past half­ century, and one who contributed to the strong influence of musical culture in Central Minnesota. The KSJR studios will be known as the Maud Moon Weyerhaeuser Studios, the professional name under which Mrs. Weyerhaeuser-Sanborn sang.

Kling spoke for the station saying he was "honored and proud to dedicate the studio to the memory of Mrs. Weyerhaeuser­-Sanborn and hopeful that the station might continue to present programming consistent with her ideals."

Mrs. Weyerhaeuser­-Sanborn was born October 2, 1876 in Rochester, Minnesota and spent much of her married life in Little Falls, Minn. She sang professionally in Chicago, New York, throughout Minnesota, and brought countless performers to Little Falls under the sponsorship of the Musical Arts Club. Her love for the Minneapolis Symphony was renowned. She often attended their Friday orchestra sessions, joining the soloist and conductor Dimitri Mitropoulos for lunch. At her Lake Alexander estate near Little Falls she held several recitals and performances. She became a strong advocate of any electronic vehicle which could convey classical music to a wide audience. She championed the gramophone and later on, when FM began transmitting with superior quality live orchestra concerts, she became devoted to its continuation.
