Clem McCarthy, Edwin C. Hill On Job

For NBC Event Will Be Broadcast

Over Combined Networks

Edwin C. Hill's vivid scene descrip-tions between rounds will supplement Clem McCarthy's blow-by-blow de-scription of the Braddock-Louis world's heavy-weight championship fight in the National Broadcasting Company's exclusive 125-station broadcast from Chicago on June 22. It will be the third time in three successive years

that the veteran NBC commentators have been teamed in the reporting of major fights.

Their first job together was the broadcast of the Baer-Louis encounter in 1935 and the second that of the Scluneling-Louis fight in 1936. The combined NBC-Blue and Red net-works, which includes WCKY, WLW, KDKA, WLS, and WSM, used in both of those broadcasts, also will carry the forthcoming Chicago battle. This year's hook-up of 125 stations, how-ever, marks an all-time high in sports broadcasts.

Broadcasting will begin at 10:00 p. m. (E.S.T.) and continue to the end of the fight.

"For Women Only"

, "For Women Only," conducted

by Mary Jane Dunphy, which has been a weekly feature over WCKY, this week becomes a Êve-days-a-week broadcast. Po-pularity of the program, as indi-cated by letters from listeners, induced WCKY executives to give it more time on the air. The program is now heard Monday through Thursday at 9:00 a. m. and on Friday at 9:30 a. m. (E.S.T.).

Beaucoup Interview

Besieged by requests for interviews by high school jurnalists, Lily Pons decided to please everyone by interviewing them en masse. Miss Pons, who sings with Andre Kostelanetz and his orchestra and chorus over the WABC-Columbia network, includ-ing WKRC, WHAS and WJR, Wednesdays from 8:00 to 8:30 p. m. (E.S.T.), said at the conclusion of the interview pictured here, "I like being interviewed by amateurs. They are so spon-taneous!"

Durward Kirby, WLW announcer, resigned last week to join NBC in Chicago.

Lucille Manners is the latest radio artist to be offered a European Con-cert tour.

LIN MASON IS NEW ADDITION TO WKRC STAFF

Lin Mason is the newest addition

to the announcing staff at WKRC.

A native of Zanesville, Ohio, Mason

is a recent graduate of Muskingum

College where he had complete charge

ing in the stadium, chapel and on the campus. During summer vacation, Lin did announcing at WALR in Zanesville and at WCOL in Colum-bus, Ohio. A blond with blue eyes, Mason is

twenty-one years old, 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs 185 pounds. He will be heard as morning announcer at the hill-top station.

"THE LAST TRAIN FROM MADRID" ON HOLLYWOOD HOTEL

(E.S.T.). Gilbert Roland, Helen Mack, Lionel Atwill and Dorothy La-Mour will be featured in this drama which deals with the current Spanish rebellion.

"UNIVERSAL RHYTHM" BEGINS NEW SERIES ON CBS Nancy Goes-a-Fishing

It looks like an evil day for the finny residents of the New York Aquarium if Nancy Kelly isn't disturbed by an unsympathetic guard before she can cast her persuasive line. Nancy, who is one of radio's most talented young actresses, is heard over the WABC-Columbia network, including WKRC. WHAS and WJR, in "Gang-busters" on Wednesdays from 9 :00' to 9:30 p. m. (E.S.T.), and plays on other prominent programs.

Full Hour Program Supplants Ford

Symphony Richard Bonelli, Baritone, Alec Templeton, Pianist,

Featured

A new and sparkling edition of the Ford Dealers' "Universal Rhythm" program featuring new and modern versions of new and old favorites, will take the air Sunday, June 20, at 8:00 p. m. (E.S.T.) over the Columbia net-work, including WKRC, WHAS and WJR, for a full-hour broadcast.

Formerly a half-hour proiram and heard during the past six months on Saturday nights, the new series will continue during the summer while the Ford Sunday Evening Hour takes its usual vacation from the airwaves. The new edition of "Universal Rhythm" will continue to star Richard Bonelli, favorite "Met" baritone; Alec Tem-pleton, blind English piano wizzard; Carolyn Urbanek, soprano, and Rex Chandler's Orchestra. Augmenting this popular group will be a featured chorus and guest stars. For the first program of the new

series, Mr. Bonelli will present an odd song of gypsy life, "Gypsy John." Joined by Miss Urbanek, the chorus and orchestra, he will also sing a med-ley from "The Student Prince" and "The Song Is You." Miss Urbanek will be heard in "Smiling Through."

Featured in two amusing routines, Mr. Templeton will again demonstrate his ability to coax comedy frotri the keyboard.

In "WSAI Revue" Cast

It's a happy gang that gathers around the microphone with Danny Dee for the "WSAI

Revue" at 2:00 p. m. (E.S.T.), Monday through Friday. Pictured here is the Monday afternoon

group. Left to right, Lee Erwin, pianist; Chic Gatwood, guitarist; Cy Carey, string bass; Bea,

Re: Griffith, Eda, Danny Dee, Clara and Dick Vaughan, who does "Fabert." Bea, Eda and Clara

comprise the Frim Sisters trio, while Griffith is tenor soloist.

A Modern Circe of CBS

Janet Logan., diminutive, black haired, blue eyed and charm-ing, is heard as the feminine menace, "Clare Blake," on "The Romance of Helen Trent" over a WABC-Columbia network, in-cluding WKRC, WHAS and WJR, each Monday through Friday from 11:30 to 11:45 a. m. (E.S.T.). The difficult role she portrays is that of a 1937 Circe, unscrupulous and greedy, which is the anti-thesis of the real lady who, not five feet tall, is demure and at-tractively shy.

Leslie Howard, Colin Clive In Radio Adaptation Of "Monsieur Beaucaire" On Lux Radio Theatre Starring in a radio adaptation of

Booth Tarkington's famous short novel, "-Monsieur Beaucaire," Leslie Howard will be heard on the broadcast of the "Radio Theater" with Colin Clive over a WABC-Columbia network, including WKRC, WHAS, and WJR, Monday, June 21, from 8:00 to 9:00 p. m. (E.S.T.). Howard will be heard in the role

of the exiled French prince who, in-cognito, wormed his way into English society in order to meet the girl he believes he loves. Exposed, he engages in a duel, and discovering the girl to be a snob, returns to his native France and his former station.

CBS to Broadcast Shakespearean Plays Columbia is planning full-hour

broadcasts of Shakespearean plays, to begin on Monday, July 12, f rom 8:00 to 9:00 p. m. (E.S.T.), and to continue for a period of eight weeks.

Telephono—CHertry 0710..0711 GEORGE A. VOGELE—Editor

Vol. VII WEEK ENDING JUNE 25, 1937 No. 6

Where It Belongs The late Will Rogers used to begin his initimable talks with the char-

acteristic remark, "Well, all I know is what I read in the papers." The

average listener might say pretty much the saute thing about programs.

If a microphone performer does a particularly good or particularly

bad piece of work, the listener gives the performer the credit or blame. That is only natural because the performer's work is what the listener hears. So he judges the performer by his work.

This is altogether fair in those cases where the performer is solely responsible for what he does at the microphone. But, especially on big-

time, the performer is not entirely responsible for the way he does his work. Instead, he must do as he is told by the production director.

This individual—sometimes there is a whole staff of them—occupies much the same position in a broadcasting studio as the director does in a movie studio. He is in immediate charge of the show.

True, his name is seldom mentioned on the air. The announcer, master

of ceremonies or featured comedian seems to be in charge. But as a rule it is the production man who has the real authority.

Obviously there is need for such direction. Somebody must be in com-

mand and coordinate the innumerable details if the program is to be a smooth-working whole. But the fact that he is in charge also makes the production man responsible for the program.

That is worth mentioning because the listener is inclined to hold the performers accountable.

Naturally, the production man's responsibility works two ways. Some-times, by skillful direction or the choice of suitable material, he can develop a headliner from unpromising material, just as many screen stars have

been developed by keen movie directors. Again, by stupid direction or choosing the wrong material, he can pretty well extinguish a genuine star.

Stories of both kinds can be heard around the studios. They need not

be told here. But they serve to show that the listener is frequently wrong in giving credit or blame only to performers.

This is not to say that every program should carry the name of its production man, so he can take the cheers or jeers of the populace. This

would shatter the illusion that the star runs the show. Anyway, most pro-grams carry enough names without adding one more. At the sanie time it would be well for listeners to remember that there is such a person as

a production man, and that he has a great deal to do with whether the program succeeds or fails.

So the next time your favorite program is better or worse than usual, think first of the production man. The chances are he, rather than the performers, is responsible.

THE GIRL ON PAGE 13 BESS JOHNSON

Bess Johnson, the Fran Moran of "Today's Children," is one of five members of the original cast of that radio show still with it after five years on the air.

"Today's Children," heard over WCKY and the NBC-Red Network five days each week, will celebrate its fifth anni-versary on Friday, June 18, at 9:45 a. m. (E.S.T.) with a spe-cial broadcast. On that broadcast will be five women who heard the first episode back in 1932 and have been daily lis-teners ever since. These listeners recently were invited to meet the cast of "Today's Children" and their reactions were carefully noted, for use in the script of Friday's show.

Two of them, for instance, expected Bess Johnson to look like Kay Francis. Bess, however, is blonde and has frequently been likened to Ann Harding.

Besides Miss Johnson, the members of the original cast still on the show are Irna Phillips, author of the serial; Fred Von Ammon, Jean McGregor and little Lucy Gilman.

Program Listing Change

Beginning with the next issue of RADIO DIAL program listings will cover from Saturday to Friday inclusive. This issue contains com-plete program listings up to and including Friday, June 25.

For Radio \ Use Second of Commissioned Compositions Presented

By CBS

The Concertino for Piano and Or-

chestra by Walter Piston, head of the

Harvard University music department

and one of the six members of the

Columbia Composers Commission who

are writing serious works especially for

radio use, will be given its premiere

performance over the WABC-Colum-

bia network, including WKRC,

WHAS and WJR, Sunday, June 20,

from 2:00 to 3:00 p. m. (E.S.T.).

This is the second of the commis-

sioned compositions to be presented

and will be played under the com-

poser's direction by the Columbia

Symphony Orchestra, with Jesus

Maria Sanroma, noted concert pianist,

performing the solo part.

Piston, a native of Rockland, Me., wrote the Concertino after making a close study of music broadcasts. His observation that most music lacked clarity when given on the radio caused him to stress simplicity and directness in writing his radio work. He says of his Concertino, which is in three short movements: "If the orchestra is muddy the microphone will not stand for it. I have approached this project very seriously in an effort to realize to the best advantage instrumental re-sources as they apply to radio."

There will be three other selections on this "Everybody's Music" program to be directed by Howard Barlow. They are the Berlioz "Roman Carni-val" Overture; "Deux Gymnopedies" of Erik Satie in an arrangement by Debussy, and, after Mr. Piston con-ducts his Concertino, Tschaikowsky's orchestral poem, "Francesca da Ri-mini."

Neck o' the Woes" Carl Carmer, one of the leading

authorities on American folklore in the country, will discuss and drama-tize the colorful backgrounds of old Mississipppi on his weekly "Your Neck O' The Woods" program, Monday, June 21, from 9:30 to 10:00 p. m. (E.S.T.), over the WABC-Columbia network, including WKRC. Carmen displayed a genius for folk-

lore research in his books, "Stars Fell on Alabama" and "Listen for a Lone-some Drum." In his new series he is delving into the background of dif-ferent sections and states of this coun-try and presenting them in a colorful program of discussion and dramatiza-tion.

PREMIERE ON CBS Good Luck, O'Keefe!

Walter O'Keefe (right), columnist, comedian and master of ceremonies, is going to take charge of affairs at NBC's Town Hall Tonight when Fred Allen and Portland Hoffa leave for their summer holiday the end of June. Walter comes to the center for instructions.

COLUMNIST LEARNS THAT BROADCASTING IS VASTLY CHANGED Newspaper man, soldier, editor, col-

umnist—now a commentator.

Nixson Denton is sports editor of the Cincinnati Times-Star and fea-tured on the "Sports On Parade"

program, 9:00 to 9:30 p. its. (E.S.T.) Mondays, over WSAI and the WLW Line.

Denton last week began a new series of daily programs over WSAI and the WLW Line as a commenta-tor. His radio program has to do with about everything but sports.

Born in Iowa—Denton began his newspaper career as a printer's devil in Manchester, Iowa. He attended

St. Mary's college at St. Mary's, Kans.

After the war Denton returned to the newspaper game. He worked for

the Muskogee, Okla., Democrat, the Cincinnati Commercial-Tribune, the Louisville Courier-Journal and a few other sheets. Fourteen years ago he joined the Cincinnati Time-Star as sports editor. A few weeks ago Red Barber, ace

sports announcer of WLW, induced Denton to share the "Sports on Par-ade" program. Long before Lowell Thomas, Boake Carter, Paul Sullivan and other ace commentators were heard on the air Nixson Denton did a turn on the original WSAI—that was back some ten years or more.

"Things are different now," said Denton. "I used to go on the air and talk until I was finished. Now I have to talk by a stop-watch and occa-sionally I have to quit right in the middle of a yarn so the announcer can say, `This is the WLW Line to New York.' "

Early Bird

Jerry Foy, singer of mountain songs, begins the broadcast day at WKRC each morning except Sunday with a quarter-hour pro-gram at 6:30 a. m. Long a favorite with radio listeners, Jerry's broadcasts are composed in most part of request numbers sent in by his audience. He plays his own guitar accompaniment.

EDITOR'S NOTE:—The following is a release from National Contest Head-quarters and is quoted by special per-mission of its director and founder, Gilson V. Willets.

"T HE Eighth Annual Group of Al America National Prize Contest

Champions was selected by National Contest News, June 1. To be in-cluded with these champions is one

of the highest honors that a contest enthusiast may hope to achieve. Only 45 national atampions have been named since 1930 when the first group was announced in this column.

This year's "Big Ten" of contest-ing were picked by the questionnaire method from thousands of consistent-ly successful prize 'winners who were rated according to the following plan:

Each person we questioned had the privilege of declining to be named an All American Contestar. Those

who did hot decline received a credit of 10 per cent. Each prize won during 1936 up to

35 rated 1 per cent, with a star for additional victories; each $100 won during 1936 up to $1500 rated 1 per cent with a star for additional earn-ings. (Total 50 per cent.) Each 10 prizes in the champion's

total record of winnings up to 100 rated 1 per cent with a star for ad-ditional victories; each $200 of prize money in the total record up to $2000 rated 1 per cent with a star for additional victories. (Total 20 per cent.)

The champion's popularity through-out America rated up to 5 per cent with a star for exceptional merit. Services rendered the contest pastime rated up to 10 per cent with a star for exceptional services rendered in the form of personal aid and en-

couragement and another star for having published news stories or arti-

cles which would encourage others to participate in contests.

The physical appearance of the questionnaire rated 1 per cent; its

accuracy rated 1 per cent and its at-tention to detail rated 1 per cent. Each of these divisions rated a possi-ble star for exceptional merit. Lastly ethics rated 1 per cent and methods of participation rated 1 per cent.

When rated by the aforementioned

method a nominee might have earned a 100 per cent rating with 10 merit stars. No one this year or any other year has measured up to that high degree of perfection. Here are the 1937 All American Contest Cham-pions:

CARL R. PENNINGTON, 4718 Astral Ave., Jasksonville, Fla., a 32-year old railway postal clerk with a rating of 99 per cent and 9 stars wins the distinction of being Amer-ica's "King of Contesting." Since 1931 he has won 297 prizes valued

at $6,407.46 including four automo-biles. During 1936 he captured 144

prizes valued at $3,593.47. Penning-ton first achieved fame when he earned tenth place in the 1936 All America group. DAVID L. WADLEY, JR., 1181

Maple St., Muskogee, Okla., a 33-

year old accountant earned second place with 98 per cent and 8 stars. Since 1930 he has won 290 prizes valued at $6000 including one auto-mobile. During 1936 he captured 87 prizes valued at $1,400. Wadley first became famous in 1935 when he was named in tenth place for that year's

All Americans. In 1936 he stepped up to seventh place. This is his third championship year. He is now writing a book on contests to help others duplicate his remarkable achievements. CHARLES A. KRAATZ, JR.,

3973 47th St., Sunnyside, Long Is-land, New York, is a 29-year old school teacher who earned third place with a rating of 96 per cent and 9

Kraatz was in sixth place in the 1933 All America group of Contestars, stepping up to third place on the 1935 group and he was the national champion in 1936. This is his fourth year of championship title. MRS. ANNETTE VICTORIN,

2109 South 58th Ave., Cicero, Ill., a 35-year old housewife, earned fourth place with 95 per cent and 8 stars.

Since 1930 she has won 582 prizes valued at $4,800 and during 1936 she captured 82 prizes valued at $1,100. This is her second champion-

H. Gilbert Martyn moves into the WSAI "Dude Ranch" pro-gram at 830 p. m. (E.S.T.), Fri-day, June 18, replacing Durward Kirby as announcer, master of ceremonies and jack of all trades. While Kirby did a rube charactear a la Luna and Abner, Martyn will do his own version of the more sophisticated "gen-tleman rancher."

"The charming woman can take a tip from those who speak success-fully on the airwaves. Speak natur-ally, let your poise be unstudied, and keep your own personality—it's bet-ter, whatever it may be than bor-rowing that of some radio or screen star."—Arthur Godfrey.

and music, moves to a new spot be-ginning June 16. The program will be heard from 6:05 to 6:15 p. m. (E.S.T.), Monday through Friday. "Day Dreams," heretofore heard

five times weekly, will be on the air over WSAI at 12:00 noon (E.S.T.)

daily except Sunday, adding Saturday to the schedule effective June 19. "Remember When," a program of

reminiscences in music and narration, begins a weekly series over WSAI June 20. The program will be heard from 10:30 to 11:00 a. m. (E.S.T.)

\ RADIO FAVORITES SHOOTING AND SHOT AT

RADIO DIAL. WEEK ENDING JUNE 25. 1937

I Y T H E A

Biggest news of the week... WCP0 makes its bid for a place in the radio sun with a special newsroom. The Sinton station is taking additional quarters on Wal-nut Street next to the Keith Build-ing. All 'CPO news broadcasts will originate from this spot... with the public welcome at all times to wander in for a look-see, Complete staff of writers will be on hand, too. The setup swings into operation this week ...with Mercury, a young chap in bellhop livery, speeding hot news stories from the Post to the new WCPO spot. A minimum of fourteen news broadcasts a day will be aired.

• The first of the "For Men Only"

shows from New York via the WLW line rates only a "B". De-spite New York talent, it just didn't stack up with many of the broadcasts originated here. Sulli-van did his usual good job ... but why inflict Estelle Taylor on us.... Here's hoping the series picks up as it goes along.

• Dropped into the Zoo offices to

confirm word of a six weeks opera season this summer.. Looks now as though some of the operas will be broadcast ... and over NBC. And by the way, some smart sponsor ought to sign up Ed Molitore. His swell tenor voice would add plenty to any show.

• Up to Dayton to see the WLW

Radio Revels...basically the same show that played Shubert's here. "Red" Barber easily the hit of the show and Helen Nugent as "the old fashioned girl" looked and ound ed swell.... The act is playing 10 large audiences at the Colonial Theatre in the Gem City.

• THUMBS UP: Aplenty for Cros-

,ey's Jimmy Leonard...who graces many a WLW and WSAI show.... Dialed him Tuesday on the "Hits of the Week" show ... and he does a swell job. Jim's got a good voice and he works hard ... a combination that's hard to beat.

• ALONG THE MILKY WAY:

Radio's busiest man ... chief engineer, Frank Dierringer. Certainly don't envy Al Bland his job ... the Dow Dawn Patrol takes off pretty early but what a listen-ing audience that boy has built up ... and it's a safe bet that Al coaxes many a chuckle before breakfast. Bill Clark, who used to boss WCP0, is now head man at WIRE in Indianapolis. And Lloyd

AL+

TR ONOMER

George Venard comes down from WGAR, Cleveland, to do com-mercial things at WCKY. WLW blossoms forth with a new trio ... .the Frim Sisters.ÇTfii- boy Danny rDe.e.• on WSAI is worth shout' about. He's got something.J Bill Williamson, WKRC's new sales manager, with his charming Mrs., departing for a week-end in Chi. John McCormick and Ruth Lyons entertaining Frank Menke and Cy Newman, in Cincy to broadcast the Latonia Derby, at lunch.

• More star shooting with the

astronomer .... next week. And, as usual, more peeps at people. THEME UP AND OUT.

STRING ENSEMBLE REPLACES JOHNSON FAMILY OVER WLW

"Eichstadt's String Ensemble," a

program of chamber music, provides dinner-hour entertainment for listen-ers to WLW and the WLW Line four

days a week.

The program, featuring violins,

viola, 'cello and piano, is heard from 6:00 to 6:15 p. in. (E.S.T.), Mon-

days, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fri-days, replacing "The Johnson Fam-ily."

John Eichstach, former violinist with the Cincinnati Symphony Or-

chestra, has been a member of the

WLW music staff the past several years. He resigned his position with the Symphony to devote his full time

to broadcasting two years ago.

Jimtny Scribner, creator and pro-ducer of "The Johnson Family," left

the air waves after his program of June 11 for a much needed vacation.

He plans to spend several weeks im-

proving his newly acquired farm 25 miles from Cincinnati. He also will

do considerable fishing during his va-cation.

QUESTIONS AND

ANSWERS

By RALPH SIMPSON

RADIO DIAL'S "RADIO SLEUTH"

I'M still getting the cold shoulder

from the staff of the Nation's

Station, along with one or two

others, for not showing up at the

most successful of all mail bag pic-nics, but then that's life I guess, or

is that just the title of a song? That reminds me, the songs and hymns of the Gospel Singer now eminate from

the NBC Chicago studios, this change

taking effect Monday of this week.

Mr. MacHugh plans to make his

home there. The main purpose of

the switch is to bring the Gospel

Singer to the Western folks too.

This is done by two programs a day— the first at the usual spot 10:45 (E.S.T.), Blue Network. The other

4:15-4:30 (E.S.T.), Red Network. A new announcer goes on the pro-

gram now, Louis Rowin. We'll all miss Hugh Frazer though.

How many of you were surprised to hear Bernie Cummins pinch-hitting for Ted Weems, Sunday at 11:30

(E.S.T.). It's only for the one time,

however, as Ted is on again June 20th at 11:30 (E.S.T.), WLW.

Another noticeable change took place on Homer Rodeheaver's pro-

gram of "Gospel II\ mns." They say anything worth having is worth keep-

ing in the family—that was the case in this instance at least, for Rose Rodeheaver Thomas, his sister ac-

cepted the responsibility and did a fine job. Homer was in Kansas City for a conference.

Johnny: Senator Fishface and Pro-fessor Figgsbottle are known in pri-

vate life as Elmore Vincent and Don

Johnson respectively. The blues singer

on their program is Jean Ellington,

and oh, yes, Hollywood is dickering for a Fishface movie. What do you

think will happen?

Some of you may' have heard the

news, but it is still future, so I'll just mention it as a reminder. June 20, at 7:00 o'clock (E.S.T.), if you are

tuned in to any of the Mutual sta-tions, you will hear a new program opened with "Hi There, Audience"

which brings back to the folks in the

East the familiar, pleasing voice of

Ray Perkins . . you know the one who used to sing "Soft White Hands" to the ladies? This is Ray's first since the National Amateur Night shows

about a year ago.

So much has been said about the

Mary Marlin program that I believe

you will be interested in knowing of a change in air time. Formerly heard

at 3:00 o'clock (E.S.T.) afternoons, it is now moving to 8:00 o'clock

(E.S.T.) in the morning, effective June 28. This makes two shows each forenoon—the first to the East, the

second at 10:15 a. m. (E.S.T.) to the West. One thing I can say is this: It takes a good show to withstand the

bouncing around received on the

present-day radio schedule.

I almost forgot to include the birth-days, but there still is space for an-other line or two. Let's see—there's

one coming up this month. Harold

Carr, the Music Box Master, has on,. on the 29th of June. The others I

have for you all come in the cold months .... a fact that doesn't cause

me much concern perhaps because I I'm all stoved up. Don Cordray, Jan-uary 6; Danny Dee, February 16, and

Peter Grant, December 13—but more

of this next week, when I and eighteen million other fellows will be able to I tell you all about the fishing condi-tions in Uncle Sammy's back yard. In the meantime see if you can fathom

this, or you might worm it out of your farmer friends. "Why is there some-

thing eerie about a cornfield?"

Jean Harlow Helped Local Player

Pall Mall, current favorite at the

Lookout House, was deeply stunned over the death of Jean Harlow,

Pall Mall was up for a screen test once over in Brooklyn. Up to this time Mall had had three tests and

the result was always the same—he was afflicted with lens-staring. It's

a habit of looking directly into the

face of the camera. This causes many a good actor anguish until the afflic-

tion is overcome. Miss Harlow helped Pall Mall by letting him in on a studio secret : she told him that when he felt the urge to stare into the

lens to pass it up by concentrating on the bright' object just above the

film cylinder. This he did and the outcome was that for the first time his

test was okayed. Pall Mall felt that

he owed a debt of gratitude to Jean—

indirectly, she helped him find him-

self.

EDDIE GARR FEATURED AT

BEVERLY HILLS Eddie Garr, screen, stage and radio

comic, now headlining Sammy Rose's "Summertime Revue" at the new Bev-erly Hills supper club south of New-port, sang and wisecracked on ten Rudy Vallee broadcasts, and was fea-tured with Jimmy Durante in the Broadway musical, "Strike Me Pink" and "Thumbs Up." He has been mak-ing Universal Pictures in Hollywood and flew to Cincinnati on a brief "vacation" to be master-of-ceremonies at Beverly Hills.

Barney Rapp and his famous New Englanders orchestra, currently play-ing, with booful Ruby Wright doing the vocal honors, need no introduction to radio fans and Greater Cincinnati dancers who recently stepped to their tantalizing tunes at Hotel Gibson. Also featured in the big revue with 40 people in Sunny O'Dea, rated as good a tap dancer as Eleanor Powell.

More than one-half the fan mail received at the NBC Hollywood studios by Edgar Bergen is addressed to Charlie McCarthy, the Irish dum-my. The mail showed a huge jump after Charlie's classic encounter with Carole Lombard on the Chase and Sanborn Hour.

Lily Pons Sings "Au Revoir" Lily Pons, whose soaring notes have

been heard over the WABC-Columbia network, including WKRC, WHAS, and WJR, throughout the past sea-son, will sing "au revoir" for the sum-mer during her broadcast with Andre Kostelanetz on Wednesday, June 23, from 8:00 to 8:30 p. m. (E.S.T.).

For her final program of the pre-sent series, Miss Pons will sing the popular aria from "La Traviata," "Ah, fors e lui che l'anima; the melody "Come Unto These Yellow Sands," by the American composer, La Forge, and

Miss Pons' own "swing" version of Strauss' Blue Danube Waltz," sung as she sang it in her recent motion pic-

ture, "That Girl from Paris."

RADIO DIAL, WEEK ENDING JUNE 25,1937 15

WILLIAM STOESS--"THE BUSIEST MAN IN RADIO"

CbFTEN referred to as "the busiest

man in radio," William Stoess

takes time out from his executive duties at the Crosley stations to per-sonally direct his orchestra in the "Hits of the Week" program over WSAI and WKRC, 9:30 to 10:00 Betty p. m. (E.S.T.) Tuesdays. The name of Stoess is synonymous

with that of Crosley for long before WSAI became a Crosley station. Stoess was announcing programs, playing the violin and otherwise

making himself handy at WHM, which later became WLW. He has risen from the ranks as one of the station's first announcers and musi-cians to music director of the two broadcasting units.

and enjoys meeting people. When he finds time, Stoess hies himself to a golf course for nine or 18 holes, de-pending how much time he can spare away from the studios.

He is married and has a daughter,

Born in Cincinnati, April 29, 1902, Stoess made his first appearance as violin soloist in Cincinnati churches.

His first recital was at the College of Music, where he studied. Always punctual for radio rehearsals, Stoess recalled that during, his high school days at Woodward he was suspended for missing an orchestral rehearsal. That suspension indirectly led to a promptness that is adhered to down to the split-second. If a rehearsal is called for 8:00 p. m., Stoess is on the job, ready to start work when the clock strikes 8.

Stoess made his professional debut as violin soloist with a Wagnerian Quintet but shortly he was playing with dance orchestras in Cincinnati

hotels. He was but 17 when his professional career began. In the

early days of his profession he travelled in all the New England

states and played in Ontario and Quebec, Canada.

During the years he has been in radio Stoess has composed many num-bers, chief of which are "Waltzing

With You," which was used in the motion picture "Smilin' Through ;" "Jig-Saw Puzzle Blues,'2, "Let's Help Roosevelt Save America," "One More

Waltz For Two," and "My Ohio."

As music director of two large stations, each originating many musi-cal programs, Stoess has a full time job on his hands. When the May-Stern Company auditioned "Hits of the Week" for a possible program on

WSAI and WKRC, Stoess obligingly took time off from his many duties

to direct his orchestra. The sponsor liked his music and Stoess agreed to put the show into production. He spends many hours each week,

delving into the music library, setting up special arrangements and otherwise preparing what is Cincinnati's biggest local show on the air. Working over-time has become a habit with Stoess.

He may be found in his office or in a studio, baton in hand, most apy hour of the day or night on just about any day of the week.

He is five feet, seven inches tall, weighs 150, has light hair with a reddish tinge, slightly thin on top,

Mae.

LISTENERS ASKED TO ASSIST JUDGES IN VICKY CONTEST

Listeners are being asked to assist the judges in WCKY's "Stars of To-morrow" contest to select the three acts which will share in prize money totaling $350.00.

Each Tuesday and Thursday at 7:30 p. m. (E.S.T.) auditions of the air are held over WCKY in this com-petition for the best radio acts, ama-teur or professional. From each pro-gram, one act is chosen for the final competition, to be held during the tenth week of the contest.

The act winning first prize will re-ceive $200 for a three-day appearance at the Liberty Theatre in Covington, and the second and third choices will be awarded $100 and $50 respectively for similar appearances at the play-house.

While the decision of the contest

judges is final, they are requesting let-ters from listeners to help them decide the best act on each program. These letters will be read and seriously con-sidered by the judges before decisions are made.

Robert Emmet Dolan, maestro of the NBC Sunday Night Party, is

moving his lares and pennants to Greenwich, Conn., for the summer. One of his neighbors will be Walter O'Keefe, who was born in Dolan's home town, Hartford, Conn.

BENNY GOODMAN

Benny Goodman and his famous "Swing." band are booked for 'a special one-night engage-ment in Moonlite Gardens, Coney Island, Friday, June 18. The Orchestra, heard by radio listeners weekly on the Jack Oakie hour, is credited with be-ing the originators and principal exponent of "Swing" dance music. Another famous orches-tra, Noble Sissle.s, will be heard nightly in Moonlite Gardens through Friday, June 25, featur-ing a tremendous floor show.

Magic Key of RCA

Xavier Cugat and his orchestra and Kay Thompson and Her Boys will be guest artists during the Magic Key of RCA program on Sunday, June 20, from 1:00 to 2:00 p. in. (E.S.T.), over the NBC-Blue network, including WLW, KDKA, WLS, and WSM. Cugat will lead his orchestra in rhum-ba numbers which have won his fame in that field. Miss Thompson, popular NBC singer and pianist, will present her group of male singers in special

orchestrations of pupolar songs. Dr. Frank Black will conduct the NBC Symphony Orchestra.

"Certainly I have a soul—but I tell you this bench is damp

ONCE OVER, Lightly By combing through lists of

radio's great, an interested in-vestigator can find many Cin-derella tales of people who won fame as entertainers after years spent behind sales counters or business desks. But that interested investigator will also find that few musicians ever stepped into the limelight unless they had spent years on the fringe of it, preparing themselves for the glare. Among the many and varied

personalities of radio, the men who lead orchestras and play in them are without a doubt the most thoroughly prepared for their task. The comedian whose delivery sends millions into paroxysms of laughter may have developed his funny voice selling fish; the singer whose crooning voice makes fem-inine hearts flutter may have spent his early years in a coal mine with never a thought to singing—but every note of music played, for instance, on the Johnny Green dance hour heard over NBC each Tuesday evening is backed by years of practice and study. Green himself, one of the most

brilliant of the modern young composers and conductors, de-voted two years to the study of piano before he even entered school. He has never worked at

anything but music. And it is also interesting to note that in his 22-man orchestra, which averages thirty-two years of age, the aver-age of experience is nineteen years. Which means that the twenty-two men e started playing

we when they about thirteen years old. Johnny himself served a long

apprenticeship as an orchestra pianist and then as an arranger before he considered himself ready to start conducting. His first important arranging assign-ment was with Guy Lombardo. Believing that showmanship is as important to a musical show as to other forms of radio presentation, such as comedy and drama, Johnny prepared for the air by doing stage and screen work.

DICK TEMPLETON.

GEORGE RECTOR George Rector will tell a story about

Eddie Foy, famous comedian and dancer, during his "Dining with George Rector" program to be broad-cast over the WABC-Columbia net-work, including WKRC and WJR, Friday, June 18, from 12:30 to 12:45 p. in. (E.S.T.).

Find the Four Hidden Names of Girls EFIKLTV! Pronounce it if you can. You may think that

these eight letters spell some unpronounceable word in an ob-scure African d i al ect. These

eight letters, however, do not spell any word in any language, but represent the names of four girls which are spelled with a total of seventeen letters.

puzzle are to be filled with five-letter words, which are so linked together that the last two letters of the first words form the first two letters of the sec-ond words, while the last two letters of the second words form the first two letters of the last words.

Menus And Cake Recipe For Nuptial Events

By KATHERINE NORRIS

and ADELINE H. MANSFIELD

UNE roses—a bride's bouquet! June days—wedding days! These lovely things remain unaltered in their serenity and beauty in this

changing world. There seems to be a magic circle around a bride-to-be and her wedding, and all within it feel the spell of its charm. Many times have we been invited

into one of these enchanted circles, and always we have taken great per-sonal delight in assisting with the collations. So when it was suggested that brides-to-be all over the country might welcome some of eur wedding ideas this month, you can imagine the undercurrent of excitement in our midst. Heads and hands were in con-ference for days and days perfect-ing the before-and-after-the-wedding menus you find on this page. The bride's cake came in for plenty of attention, too, for we chose to make and frost it ourselves, as a grand example of what a bride's cake should be. But let's get back to the sub-ject of refreshments once again. We'll tell you more about our Wedding Cake later. .

Before we start making suggestions for the Great Day itself, some of you may wish us to consider for a moment the important events that precede the wedding. One of the happiest days in your life will be that on which your engagement is announced. When and how you break this good news to friends and relatives is for you to de-cide. Some select an afternoon tea for the purpose, others a luncheon or din-ner. Luncheon is so often the occasion for announcing this happy event that we have planned our first menu of the column of menus on this page with that in mind. The custom of giving a bridal show-

er is both a gracious and a jolly one. It not only pays a loving compliment to the bride-to-be, but, if our observa-tions are at all correct, the surprise packages give the guests just as much pleasure as they do the bride. It is not unusual for these showers to be evening affairs, especially if the host-ess is a business girl. Refreshments, dainty but light, are very much in order. So why not our Rainbow Shower menu, with its luscious salad main course that may be made the night before? When the wedding is to be a large

one, there is often a rehearsal the night before. Many times a dinner for the bride and groom and their attend-ants is planned to precede or follow this rehearsal. At this time the bride and groom give their gifts to their attendants and to each other. While this dinner may be a formal one, you may prefer to make it one of those jolly informal affairs, served buffet style. If so, the Rehearsal Buffet Sup-per on this page may give you just the inspiration you need for things to serve. Wedding breakfasts may be of the

early or late variety. If your wedding breakfast is to be served before 10 o'clock, make it very simple. It may be either of the sit-down or buffet type—we have given you both in our Early Wedding Breakfast menus. By the way, we found it possible to keep the Scrambled Eggs hot, yet creamy, in a chafing dish or a covered caseerole which had been preheated. We also found that eggs cooked in a double boiler were creamiest and easiest to make. Any wedding breakfast served after

10 o'clock takes on the nature of «a luncheon, and it may be simple or

elaborate as you choose. We have pur-posely kept our Late Wedding Break-fast menus simple, so that they can be prepared by those in the home, rather than by a caterer. If your wed-ding guests include more than the immediate family and the wedding party is a large one, a separate table may be arranged for the bride, groom, bridesmaids, best man and ushers. The other guests may sit at one large table or at several small tables. Or they may serve themselves from a buffet, always a delightfully informal service and a gay and happy one. Or plates arranged in kitchen or pantry may be passed to them.

If your wedding is to be a small one, the wedding party and guests may have the wedding breakfast all at one table, or buffet service may be used. Then, too, if both serving and table space are limited, a stand-up repast with the plates arranged in the kitchen may be preferred. At a late afternoon wedding recep-

tion, small cakes, a wedding or bride's cake and a beverage are all that need be served, although some of you may choose to include dainty sandwiches and ices as well. Possibly you will have guests coming from a distance. If so, you may find it desirable to serve a more substantial collation. This collation is to be served buffet style. However, if your space is limited, these same refreshments can be arranged on individual plates in the kitchen and passed to the guests. Punch may be served at either the

wedding breakfast or reception and should be placed in the hall or living room so guests may serve themselves. Most brides consider a wedding or

bride's cake an essential part of their wedding repast. The cake may be used as the decoration on the bride's table or buffet, or it may be placed alone on a side table. The bride always makes the first cut in the cake, then has someone else finish serving it as part of the wedding feast. Or the cut-

ting may be finished in the kitchen, the cake then being served to the guests or packed in small boxes for the guests to take home. Sometimes a separate cake is packed in a shal-low pan especially to put in these boxes.

Cutting a tiered cake is sometimes a problem. We found it best to re-move the top tier, leaving the deco-ration intact, and put it aside for the bride to keep. Then cut and serve the next layer and, if the party is large, the bottom layer.

While the wedding or bride's cake may be prepared by a professional, we think it is lots of fun and a real joy

to make it at home. It may be fruit or pound cake. The cake on our bride's table, shown on this page, is pound cake, and we found the mak-ing, baking and decorating of it really very simple. The lovely candy ornament on top of it was made for us by a caterer and cost surprisingly little. Unfortunately, such an orna-ment is fragile and can not be shipped successfully. However, if you can not order a similar one in your locality, you can surely purchase other suit-able decorations. Now for the recipes for our Bride's

Cake and its frosting, as well as a few tips on its baking and decorating.

THE WEDDING CAKE THE POUND CAKE

1 e. shortening 23/4 c. sifted cake 1 c. and 2 tbsp. flour

granulated sugar 14 tsp, baking powder eggs 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Cream the shortening thoroughly; add the sugar gradually, creaming well after each addition. Add the eggs, unbeaten, one at a time, and beat after each addition until very light. Fold in the flour and baking powder sifted together; add the vanilla and mix. For a 3-tier cake measuring 12" at the base, such as that illustrated on this page, use a 6", a 9", and a 12" spring form pan lined with well-greased heavy paper. Twice the above

I recipe will fill both the 6" and 9" pans. Three times the above recipe will fill the 12" pan. We found it easiest to do this by making once the recipe, pouring it into the prepared pan, then making up one or two more batches as needed and pouring them on top. You will probably find it conveni-

ent as we did, to make the 6" and 9" cakes first, baking them together in the same slow oven of 300° F., and allowing about 2 hrs. for the 6" cake and about 2%2 to 3 hrs. for the 9" cake. Make the 12" cake afterward, baking it at 300° F. for 31/2 to 4 hrs. or until done.

In using an electric beater for the above Pound Cake follow the proced-ure of mixing only once the recipe at a time as suggested above for the hand method. In mixing the batter, allow the shortening to stand at room tern perature until soft, then cream for about 2 min. at high speed. Add the sugar gradually, still using high speed. After all the sugar is added, scrape the bowl and beat about 2 min. longer. Add the eggs, unbeaten, one at a time, and beat 1 min. after each addi-tion, still using high speed. Scrape the bowl, add the vanilla and beat for a few seconds longer. With a spoon or wire whip fold in the flour and baking powder, sifted together.

If you are like us, you will want your cake to be simply but beautifully decorated. Plan to do this frosting work early the day before the wed-ding. For our three-tier 12" wedding cake described above, we made once the following recipe for Ornamental Icing to set the crumbs, then three times this recipe to frost and decorate the cake.

THE ORNAMENTAL FROSTING

I lb. i3' 3 c.) con- 3-egg whites, fectioners' sugar unbeaten

1/1 tsp. cream of tartar 1/2 tsp. flavoring

Sift sugar and cream of tartar through a very fine sieve. Add the egg whites and mix all together, using a slotted spoon or a wire whip. Con-tinue mixing for about 3 min. Add flavoring. Now place the largest cake layer on

a round of cardboard slightly larger than the cake. Spread it lightly with some of this frosting to set the crumbs, then top with the remaining two layers, frosting each in the same manner. Set the tiered cake on top of a large inverted bowl so it can be turned around and around while you are frosting and decorating it. Now make up three times the above frosting recipe and beat it about 8 min. by hand or 3 to 4 min. in an electric beater at high speed. Spread some of this over the cake, smoothing the surface with a spatula dipped in hot water. If the first coat of frosting is not so smooth as you would like it, let it dry, then apply a second coat, keeping the frosting covered with a piece of damp cloth in the mean-while. Now beat the remaining icing until it is so stiff that a knife drawn through leaves a clean, clear path. In damp weather more sugar may be beaten in to stiffen it. This is to be used in a cake decorator.

GOLDEN CUP CAKE

HERE'S a recipe that makes cup cakes with nice brown sides that

don't shed crumbs. Simple to make— and simply delicious. But you must exercise care to time the baking period correctly. 1/) c. shortening 34 c. granulated

sugar 6 egg yolks 13/4 c. sifted cake or

pastry flour

2 tsp. baking powder 3/4 tsp. salt % e. milk % tsp. lemon or

vanilla extract

Cream the shortening thoroughly and add the sugar gradually, beating

with a spoon after each addition until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat the egg yolks until thick and lemon-colored, and add them to the sugar mixture, blending thoroughly. Sift the dry ingredients together. Add the fla-voring to the milk and add alternately with the dry ingredients, sifted to-gether, to the sugar mixture, beating with a spoon after each addition until smooth. Pour batter into 3 doz. small greased cup-cake pans. Bake at 375° F. for 20 to 30 min. In using an elec-tric beater, beat the egg yolk until thick and lemon-colored, using high speed. In another bowl cream the shortening and sugar together as di-

rected for pound cake above. Add the speed for 1 min. Then, using lowest speed, add the dry ingredients, sifted together, and milk and extract alter-nately, as rapidly as possible.

BEST BETS OF

THE WEEK . The story gets in your way

every once in so often, especially toward the end—but, all in all, I think you'll find "THIS IS MY AFFAIR" a pleasing and exciting picture. In this one, Robert Tay-?or is the young naval hero who is given a secret assignment by Pres-ident McKinley. He has to locate the desperate bank bandits, and it goes almost without saying that Barbara Stanwyck is the pure and innocent half-sister of the bandit leader. But the backgrounds of the period are swell, and a definite suspense is main-tained throughout. Taylor, Stanwyck, and Victor AfcLaglen are all very good—and there is an excel-lent bit contribution by Tyler Brooke. "THIS IS MY AFFAIR" is a very good audience film.... Two pictures that lack big names but Ionstitute above-the-average entertainment are Gland 'National's "'THE GIRL SAID NO" and Universal's "THE MAN IN BLUE." If they hit your neighborhood, both productions are worth a visit.

... Among recent novels, I suggest you read "A MIGHTY FORT-RESS," a first publication by Le Grand Cannon, Jr. Set in New England shortly before the Civil War, it traces the wandering path Ezekiel Peel took from a farm in New Hampshire to a ministry in Boston. There is a compactness in the writing and a breadth of under-standing in "A MIGHTY FORT-

RESS" that will bind your attention to the page. ... Herbert Clyde Lewis, a New York newspaperman, has written "GENTLEMAN OVERBOARD," a slim novel that builds up tension like an electric dynamo. It starts in mid-Pacific when Henry Preston Standish, a normal eriPn and "one of the world's most boring," falls from ship into the sea. From that moment, Lewis tick off the minutes in his novel to a powerful climax. "MAN OVERBOARD" is a model of dramatic writing and is issued by Viking for $1.50.. Also recommended: "THE LAST EX-PRESS," a mystery in the noisy caverns of the sub-way, by Baynard Kendrick.

. Odds And Ends In The Enter-tainment World: More and more members of the Hollywood players are buying yachts for themselves. All members of the ahoy-polloi? . . . Dance record I enjoyed best this week was "You Can't Run Away From Love Tonight" and "'Cause My Baby Says It's So," as played by Vincent Lopez and his orchestra. . . . Harry Lauder, now 67 years of age, may make a motion picture. That's pretty good for a guy who gave his first "farewell appearance" in America more than twenty years ago —and then continued to give one almost every year thereafter! ... Joe Lewis, expert funster, has an idea how to make a million dollars on Broadway. He's going to open a hot dog stand behind the eight ball!

PLOT FOR A NOVEL The mountaineer's wife sent her lazy, easy-going

husband to town. She wanted a five-bound bag of salt and a gallon of kerosene.

The hill-billy was gone for over twenty years. Then, one afternoon, he returned home. He stuck his head in the door.

"Yoo-hoo, Marty," he yodeled. "Hyar's yer salt

A Hellinger Short Story RENZY was tiny, and tough, and screwy, and superstitious. He had a head like an auc-

tioneer's mallet, and beady little eyes that blinked like a lighthouse. He was the toughest man in his State and, when not in the mood to murder, he had been known to gouge the eyes out of a friend.

Grenzy was afraid of no man. The in-tangibles, however, could make a sissy out of him at any time. Anything that smack-ed of the supernatural had him completely buffaloed. He was woefully ig-

norant. And that, of course, emphasized the value of supersti-tions . .

*napped. His knees shook. His skin fared to a clownish white. He leaped fk into the car. "'Step on it!" he shouted. "Let's

get out of here. Quick!" The gang wanted to know what

.1 happened to the boss. On the way back, he told them. They wanted to laugh at him, but they didn't dare. Grenzy swore the cat was a tip-off, and that the cops were probably in-side, waiting. And, strange as it may seem, he

was right! The very next day, the newspapers

had a small story to the effect that the police had waited in that very warehouse. They had waited there for a week on a tip that "some gang" was going to pull a robbery.

After that, the boys never laughed again at any of Grenzy's supersti-tions . . .

• • •

UTER, Grenzy became a very hot criminal, indeed. The cops were

out to get him. The governor of the State demanded that the cops in every town were to hunt him down. And Grenzy was compelled to remain very much in seclusion. He stayed in an apartment—and

held court there. Business went on as usual, and Grenzy was feeling fine. He felt that way, that is, until one of the gang walked in one night and tossed his hat on the bed. The superstitious Grenzy almost

leaped out of his hide. As he ran to knock the hat from the bed, he heard

seCOnde later, the police kicked the door down.

Again, Grenzy made good his es-cape. But he knew in his heart that the hat on the bed was what got him into trouble . . .

Several months later, interest in the notorious Grenzy had waned. The papers were full of politics, and the editors forgot about Grenzy for the moment. So he came out of hiding. He summoned the boys and handed

out some very sweet news. He was going to pull a very juicy job. On a bank, this time. And in daylight, too. when the pretty bills were present for everyone to see. He had a mugg draw maps of the

surrounding streets, and of the in-terior of the bank. Grenzy knew ex-actly where every burglar alarm button was. And he X'd off the spots on which he wanted the boys to stand. Each man had his own job. Harry

was to keep the engine of the car run-ning on Jackson street. Tommy was to stand at the bank entrance with his hat off. If he put the hat on at any time, that was the signal to scram.

Joe, Ben, and Mike were to enter the bank with Grenzy. One was to take care of the patrons. One was to cover the bank officers. One was to help Grenzy at the tellers' cages. The job was an absolute cinch . .

• • •

T HE boys did their parts like troupers. Everything went well,

except for one very unfortunate

hitch. One of the tellers wanted to be a hero. He grabbed a gun. And Grenzy splashed a shot in the center of his forehead. The boys scooped up all the dough

they could handle. And they departed with a celerity that would have been envied by a Jesse Owens.

They ran to Jack-son street and scrambled into the waiting car. They were only seven blocks away when a police car pulled across the road in front of them. They had to pull up—or crash. They pulled up.

Grenzy grabbed a money bag and ran. He kept his fingers crossed as he ran— and he wasn't hit. Mike ran alongside of him. "We're makin' for

the old flat," cried Grenzy. "Keep run-ni' like hell." Which is just what

they did. They hurdled fences and hedges, and they ran up streets and down alleys. Fi-nally, they reached an apart-

ment. They ran through the hall. Fortunately, no one was there. The two men raced up the stairs.

Grenzy used his old key, and entered the flat with Mike. He closed the door and leaned against it. "Took a long chance comin' here,"

hs whispered heavily. "But we hadda do it. Now if the luck will only hold out for a coupla hours, we—"

His voice trailed off as he heard the police. Sirens—hundreds of them —seemed to be blowing. 'Ilrer• were heavy steps on the stairs. Grenzy and Mike left the door.

They took the money bag and raced into a deep closet. Grenzy closed the door and pulled a lot of gowns and suits in front of them. Then Grenzy crossed his fingers, because that had never failed to bring him good luck. They heard the cops pound on the

outside door. Grenzy and Mike held their breaths. They heard the pound-ing and splintering of wood. They heard the hoarse shouts of

the police, and the tramping of many feet. They heard a policeman ap-proach the closet. Grenzy grinned in the dark—and double-crossed his fingers. The cop opened the closet door and

stared inside. Grenzy's heart pounded in his throat. But nothing happened. The cop was evidently satisfied. He closed the door again. A moment later, there were a num-

ber of shots. Grenzy felt the sting of many bees in his chest. He and Mike fell dead . . .

24 RADIO DIAL, WEEK ENDING JUNE 25,1937

Because a number of commercials fold during the hot months, summer is the traditional season when sustain-ing programs come into their own. As usual, that's the case this summer. Also as usual, the studio chefs' ideal recipe for a summer sustainer is about as follows. Take plenty of rhythm tunes, the more monotonous the better. Add a heavy dose of drooling continuity. Top off with a bit of "purple" drama. then slip into a vacant half-hour. There's only one thing wrong with this concoc-tion. It's wasted oil. Particularly in summer, most dialers use radio just as a background. They pay no attention to words. They want mu-sic; fresh, restful music. Yet most directors abhor a program made up exclusively of better-quality music as they would the plague. If you doubt that, count up such programs. The fingers of one hand will be enough. Why is this? Well, why?

Press release headline: "Gibbons offers one revolution, one mad bull, and several floods on CBS." Cin-cinnatians still remember one Gib-bons flood that turned out to be quite a bull.

Proctor and Gamble have just re-newed their contract with NBC call-ing for 73 broadcasts a week. In radio amateur jargon 73 means best wishes and all that sort of thing. It must mean something quite as pleas-ant for NBC. This one sale, account-ing for much of National's daytime space, points to something still m'ore important. Exactly where would ra-dio be without a few "heavy sugar" sponsors?

Those recent Lurn and Abner epi-sodes built around a postoffice rob-bers' again raise the old question of why radio comedy serials must, every now and then, go in for crime or tear-jerking. It's a mystery nobody's been able to solve.

Apropos of comedy serials, persis-tent rumor has it that Amos and Andy will not be renewed by their present sponsor when their contract expires at the end of this year. Which should surprise no one. It's generally known that the blackface team has lost plenty of ground since the fabu-lous days when people bought radios just to hear Amos and Andy. Some say they've been on the air too long. But I'm far from sure that's the whole .explanation. Their scripts haven't held the hilarious pace of the first couple of years. And say what you will, scripts are the life of any comedy act. Yet radio owes a lot to Amos and Andy. They pioneered many worth while innovations. That's

worth remembering when they seem about to fade from the picture.

Whoever prepares Rudy ‘'allee's interviews deserves an appreciative hand. Unlike some other cases that could be mentioned, Vallee's guest celebrities aren't treated as mere stooges. Sometimes he's even serious and respectful. That's quite refresh-ing.

Now and then• 'Boake Carter's pen-chant for "perhaps" makes his style downright ludicrous. June 7 was "perhaps" a field day for the careless use of his pet mannerism. As "per-haps" these excerpts will show "Sure-ly, perhaps, it seems . . . " and "There you have perhaps possffib.... "Perhaps more sparing use of " haps might "perhaps"- make "per-haps" mean what . it "perhaps- does to most of us, "perhaps."

As if there weren't already enough programs aimed at the spending sex, NBC uncorks still another: There Was a Woman (over WCKY, Satur-day, 7 p. m. (E.S.T.). It's built around the power-behind-the-throne idea, showing how a woman in-fluenced the life of a well-known man. On this score the June 5 piece wasn't entirely successful. Jesse James' mother seemed just lugged into what was little more than a per-iod crime thriller.

With the barrage or hits chalked up in Hits of The Week, one begins to wonder why its box score doesn't leave space for errors.

Maybe it's because directors have been aiming at women so long they can't break the habit. Any-way, ex-clusive masculine interest in the new For Men Only (WLW, Monday, 7:30 p. m. (E.S.T.), seems pretty much title-deep. Certainly Estelle Taylor's syrupy contribution to the June 7 show was less than sure-fire he-man stuff. Why not cash in on genuine male hobbies, let Paul Sullivan inter-view some of the chaps who make and fix and collect things just be-cause they like to. That would be one obvious way to inject male in-terest, which -the show still needs. Another would be to bar women from the cast with an iron hand. They can be heard on any old program.

At least radio didn't go complete-ly maudlin over Jean Harlow's death. In the light of previous experience, that's highly commendable restraint.
