Sunday Players Present "A Child Is Born"

With the broadcast of their story

of the first Christmas, which has be-

come a Christmas classic on two

hemispheres, the world's most famous

Sunday radio feature comes to sta-

tion WKRC, at 2:00 Saturday after-noon, December 25, 'for a ear's en-gagement.

The Sunday Plaers of Hollywood had their origin in Colorado Springs six years ago as a "Little Theatre" group under the patronage of Board-man Robinson, the well known paint-er and illustrator, and other intelli-gentsia.

Although sponsored by a group with more or less liberal ideas, the Little Theatre Players selected as their most ambitious radio offering

over Station KVOR, a story of the first Christmas, written by Chase Var-ney, an art pupil of Boardman Robin-son, and called, "A Child is Born."

This was on Christmas Eve, 1931. The following morning the Little Theatre Players awoke to find them-selves famous. A long engagement

over KLZ, in Denver, followed, then six months on KFI, Los Angeles, and after that, permanently incorporated as The Sunday Players.

Worldfamous Singer To Appear Weekly

As Soloist Lawrence Tibbett, distinguished

American baritone of the Metropoli-tan Opera Company, will appear as

soloist with Andre Kostelanetz and his orchestra in a new series of t ograms over CBS, including,

WKRC, WHAS and WHIO, Wednes-day, December 29, from 9:00 to 9:30 p. m. (E.S.T.).

Tibbett will offer no less than five songs on each broadcast and, while not adhering exclusively to American music, plans to include in each week's concert what he considers the best songs by native composers. His first program includes numbers by George Gershwin and Cole Porter.

Kostelanetz has planned many striking features for the series and intends to present manv of his bril-liant arrangements of America's finest popular music.

Tibbett was one of the first operatic artists to be featured in radio. He was the first singing star of talking pictures as well. And he was the first great modern concert baritone

to become a major box-office attrac-tion, a feat previously accomplished almost exclusively by tenors.

Tibbett's return to the Columbia

network marks his first regular radio series in two years. His December 29th program with Kogtelanetz will occur just a week after his first ap-pearance of the season at the Metro-politan Opera House.

XMAS SPIRIT MONOPOLIZES NETWORKS "Romeo et Juliette"

To Feature Sayao, Crooks In Met Matinee

"Romeo et Juliette," Gounod's oper-atic version of Shakespeare's immortal love drama against the background of fued between the Montagues and the Capulets, will be broadcast in full direct from the stage of the Metro-politan Opera Christmas Day, De-cember 25, beginning at 1:55 p. m. (E.S.T.) over NBC, including WCKY, WLW and WSM.

Bidu Sayao, Brazilian soprano, will be Juliette, and Richard Crooks, American tenor, will sing Romeo.

This opera, the second most popu-lar by Charles Gounod, is being per-formed for the first time in two years at the Metropolitan. It came into the Opera's repertory in 1891 and with it came three of the great stars of early Metropolitan history—Emma Barnes, and Jean and Edouard de

Reszke. In Saturday's broadcast perform-

ance, Frere Laurent, the introduced by Edouard de Reszke, will be sung by Ezio Pinza, great Italian basso. The conductor will be Maurice de Abravanel. The libretto of "Romeo and Ju-

liette" more or less follows the text of Shakespeare's play. Capulet, a Veronese noble, is marking his daugh-ter's debut into society with a masked ball. Romeo, a member of the enemy family, the Montagues, accosts Ju-liette and immediately falls in love with her.

Frere Laurent later secretly unites the pair in marriage, hoping that the union will reconcile the families; but Romeo's imprudent page, Stephano, arouses the anger of a Capulet and a fight ensues in which Romeo, fight-ing to avenge the death of a friend,

kills Tybalt. For this, Romeo is banished by

the Duke of Verona, but first meets

Juliette in the Capulet house. Frere Laurent, in order to help Juliette avoid marriage with Paris, gives her a potion that will throw her into a trance for forty-eight hours.

She apparently dies and is placed in the burial vault of the Capulets. Romeo, forces the door to gain one last glimpse of his bride, then drinks a deadly poison The reviving Ju-liet has only time to bid her hus-band farewell before his death. In despair, she stabs herself The comeplete cast:

juliette Bidu Sayao, soprano Stephano Lucide Browning, mezzo-soprano Gertrude Doris Doe contralto Romeo Richard Crooks, tenor Tybalt . Angelo Bada, tenor Benvolio Max Altglass, tenor Mercutio John Brownlee, baritone Paris Nicholas Massue, tenor Gregorio Wilfred Engelman, baritone Capulet Norman Cordon, basso Frere Laurent Ezio Pinza, basso The Duke of Verona

Barrymore In Dickens' "Christmas Carol"

Broadcast To Follow "Hollywood Hotel"

Christmas Day Lionel Barrymore as Scrooge, in

Charles Dickens' immortal "A Christ-

mas Carol," a portrayal which has

become an annual event in radio,

will join forces with "Hollywood Ho-

tel's" guest stars and cast in a gala

hour and three-quarter Christmas

Day broadcast over CBS, including

WKRC, WHAS and WHIO, Satur-

day, December 25, from 4:00 to 5 :45

p. m. (E.S.T.).

Tommy Kelly, Jackie Moran, Ann

Gillis, May Robson, Victor Jory,

Marcia Mae Jones, Donald Meek,

Olin Howland and David Holt will

present scenes from their latest pic-

ture, "Tom Sawyer," during "Holly-

wood Hotel."

Barrymore was first heard as

Scrooge several years ago during a half-hour dramatization. So great

was the response to this program that

the sponsor signed him to a five-year contract—one of the most unusual in

the history of the entertainment

world—to appear each Christmas as

the hard-bitten, miserly man who

closed his eyes and heart to the spirit

of Christmas and the joy of living.

The eminent actor says he has be-

come increasingly intrigued with the

role. New facets in the characteriza-tion of Scrooge are added with each annual portrayal, so that the part shines as brightly as any that Barry-more has created in his many years before the footlights and cameras.

There will appear in support of Lionel Barrymore a cast of competent performers in the familiar roles of Tiny Timm, Bob and Mrs. Cratchit and the Ghost of Christmas.

Shapely Hands Win Honors

This year it is- pretty Lucille Manners, star of the "Cities Service Concerts" program, who wins the coveted "Jerome Radio Award For Beautiful Hands." Lucille is the winsome miss who has achieved outstanding network honors in less than a year. Jerome is the noted New York beauty authority whose New York Penthouse Salon is internationally famous.

The program is broadcast over the NBC-Red network, includ-ing WSAI, each Friday, at 8:00 p. m. (E.S.T.)

Christmas Night To Mark Toscanini's Debut With

NBC Symphony Orchestra Arturo Toscanini will inaugurate

his series of broadcasts as guest con-ductor of the NBC Symphony Or-chestra Christmas night, December 25, at 10:00 p. m. (E.S.T.) over NBC, including WCKY, in a pro-gram consisting of the Vivaldi D Minor Concerto Grosso, Mozart's G Minor Symphony and Brahms' First Symphony.

Toscanini will conduct the orches-tra, which has met with enthusiastic acclaim, in Vivaldi's Concerto Grosso in D Minor, Opus 3, No. 11; Mozart's Symphony in G Minor, and Brahms' Symphony in C Minor, No. 1. In returning to America to con-duct the NBC Symphony, Toscanini comes back to the land where he has scored personal triumphs as great as any in the annals of his art.

It was during his seven years of association with the orchestra of the Metropolitan Opera House that he rose from the rank of fine con-ductors to the pinnacle of individual

supremacy. When he left the United States it

was thought that his incomparable genius was to be lost to American music lovers. Then, on February 5 of this year, David Sarnoff, Presi-dent of the Radio Corporation of America, announced the receipt of a radiogram from the maestro. radiogram from the maestro accept-ing an invitation to play in America.

THE GOOD NEIGHBORS During the next few days the short waves will carry special Christmas

programs from just about every country with a station capable of world-

wide coverage. The more pretentious of these will be relayed by our net-

works. And owners of all-wave sets will be able to dial others for them-

selves.

In the course or these Yuletide programs somebody is sure to declare

that broadcasting has brought the world closer together. With appropriate

allusions to "good will among men," it will be pointed out that radio makes

for greater international understanding by wiping out distance and pro-

viding direct contact between the peoples of the earth.

Particularly at the Christmas season, it would lie pleasant to accept

these familiar claims at face value. But, unfortunately, the facts point

in an opposite direction. --

Not that world-wide reception is a myth. Under average conditions

it is a simple matter to dial Europe and South America. And under good

conditions every continent can be heard on a high-grade modern receiver.

It is the use being made of this world-wide communication that raises

ironic doubts about radio bringing the nations of the earth closer together.

Reception itself is an instance. On the short-wave program bands

there are not only too many stations for comfort. Many of them show

such calloused disregard for the rights of others that interference cuts

programs to ribbons.

And the contents of these programs are still more revealing.

Those from the dictatorship countries are notorious for propaganda.

They not only preach their particular isms, but bitterly attack counter-

isms. To them, radio is primarily just a weapon of verbal warfare.

South and Central American broadcasting is ironic on another score.

Though most of these stations cover the English-speaking United States

consistently, most of their programs are aimed at the Spanish-speaking

Lome audience, where few listeners have all-wave sets.

Our own short-wave stations are not guiltless on the sanie count. Until

recently the bulk of programs carried by our "international broadcasting

stations" lacked even national interest. In fact, commercial programs ped-

dling wares that can be bought only in a single city shop are still being wafted to the far corners of the world.

All these things are not being set down merely with a perverse desire to "throw cold water." Christmas should be a joyous season. But neither is anything to be gained by blinking the facts.

In short-wave broadcasting the engineers have given the world an un-precedented means of intimate contact. But whether that contact produces a better understanding or just the "familiarity that breeds contempt" is still debatable.

The situation seems to demonstrate on an international scale that being good neighbors is one of the more difficult arts.

Lee Goldsmith Glib Ad-Libber

Yes, thousands of women listen to

him daily on the Household Hour

over WCKY. With Mary Jane he

presents this offering under the nom-

de-kilocycle of Lee Wood.

As Lee Goldsmith he is studio di-rector of the L. B. Wilson station. .

Lee claims the distinction of being the dean of Cincinnati air-men. He

has been in radio locally since WCKY opened in 1929.

Informality is the keynote of his radio technique and among the pro-fession Lee has the reputation of be-ing one of the most glib ad-libbers in the business. Among his more intimate associates he has the name of being one of the most prolific punsters.

TEN EYCK

SCRIBBLES

IN WHICH WE DASH OFF A FEW SHORT NOTES TO RADIO PERFORMERS . . . To Paul Sulli-van:—Paul, you do a grand pro-gram and you have an excellent sponsor. The pronunciation of foreign words and prolix, verbose phrase-ology rolls off your polished tongue like buttered asparagus from a whirl-ing phonograph disc. But the guy that writes the commercial plug be-fore you start orating should have his brains plowed under. For sus-tained unintqest is has no equal . . .

* * *

To Boss Johnston:—How's every-

thing down on the farm tonight. Radio needs more guys like you Boss and some of or anemic announcers could stand a few copious feedipgs from your bounteous table like you used to hand out to me. Merry X-mas, Boss, and don't dip your chin into the cider bucket too often over the holidays. Remember what hap-pened when Grandpa Tarbaby and your pappy Jughead Johnson used to get together To Lee Goldsmith :—You gave nie

the grandest present of all when you

e started nie in this business so many years ago. I've often thought how I'd like to enbalm you personally or send telegram of condolence if you should happen to break a leg. But the old Xmas spirit has nie like old rocking chair has L. B. Wilson so I'll drink an extra kerosene highball for both of you this year . . . .

* * *

To Boake Carter and Lowell Thomas :—Gentlemen, you are so consistently good I'm going to send each of you a Xmas card that was printed in Japan. Also I'm sendng a picture of our woodpile at home in which a chinaman is hiding. You've both been looking for him so long I had to try to assist some way .

"Mary Jane"

Pieturéci here is Albirda Haines who plays the part of Mary Jane in "The Freshest Thing in Town" broadcast over WKRC Mondays through Fri-days at 5:15 p. m. (E.S.T.). • She is a graduate of the

Schuster-Martin School of Dra-matics.

Play "Tom Sawyer"

Tommy Kelly (top) and Jackie Moran (below) will play the roles of Tom Sawyer and Huck-leberry Finn, respectively, when they appear on the "Hollywood Hotel" broadcast, Saturday. De-cember 25, at 4 p. m. (E.S.T.), broadcast over CBS, including WKRC, WHAS, and WHIO.

If his show-stopping appearance on the December 12 Ford Hour is any guide, Galliano Masini should be able to name his own price for a 1938 ra-dio contract. The dial - twister wouldn't go so far as to say the new-comer to the American air is a sec-ond Caruso. But certainly he's one of the finest operatic tenors to grace a microphone in many a moon. Next to his superb voice, his appearance on the Ford Hour emphasized the absurd straight-jacket radio programs put on themselves. After his first number, the audience—both visible and invis-ible—wanted more and yet more of Masini. Had it been a non-radio concert, he would have been called back for many encores, and the or-chestral numbers ditched. But being a radio program, it had to follow its appointed course, no matter how much listeners missed. This tyranny of the stop-watch can be plain silly.

* * *

So Bill Hay stays on as Amos and Andy's announcer when they change sponsors next month. It's to be hoped that he'll have better commercials to read. Those Pepsodent blurbs have been going from bad to worse.

That scene from "Of Mice and Men- on the December 9 Vallee

- —

Hour was a tantalizing morsel of red meat. Even though it was painstak-ingly expurgated, the fragment crea-ted the mood of the Steinbeck gens. Given a full hour or more, the play could make radio draina history. Lux Theater directors please note.

Making Jack Smart available is the chief advantage of having Fred Allen's show produced in Hollywood. Jack is one of the funniest character actors radio has turned up.

* * *

Electrical engineers probably don't listen to Your Unseen Friend. And it's fortunate that they didn't hear the December 11 edition. This "true life" drama had a lone man in charge of a noiseless powerhouse. But amazing as that was, it was only the beginning. The climax hinged on service to a whole community having to bc "killed" because of a short-circuit in an industrial plant. The only rea-sonable explanation of this was cock. eyed design or a faulty circuit-break-er, neither mentioned. Just in case engineers might listen, it would be well to have future scripts checked for technical credibility.

"bit' Hit Parade" Presents Reisman As Guest Conductor

Leo Reisman, dynamic band lead-er, will conduct "Your Hit Parade" over CBS including WKRC-WHAS and WHIO Saturday from 10:00 to 10:45 p. m., (EST), for three broad-casts beginning December 25. He will lead his musicians through indi-vidual arrangements of the ten hit tunes selected by the nation on that date and on January 1, and Janu-ary 8.

Reisman, who was a song plugger at a dollar an afternoon when but ten years old, was offered a scholar-ship at the New England Conserva-tory of Music after an official had heard him demonstrating a song with both violin and piano. At the end of his musical education in that insti-tution he became a concert violinist and at eighteen was first violinist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

After three years of indecision Reisman resolved his place in the musical world was wielding a baton and became the idol of the collegiate crowd in Boston shortly thereafter when his band was "discovered" play-ing at the now defunct Brunswick Hotel.

Through his society and collegiate engagements he came to the atten-tion of New York talent scouts and in 1929 began playing at the Central Park Casino, then the mecca of the city's night life. He made his radio debut soon after and has been heard ,consistently on various programs since that date.

TEN EYCK SCRIBBLES (Continued front page 4)

Gentlemen :—You are the biggest bunch of bums with real ability that could be assembled under one roof at one time. From our front door to the joint across the street you have worn a five-foot furrow in solid cement. You have caused me more headache than my sinus trou-ble and you are about as useful to my peace of mind as my total accu-mulation of Xmas bills. As a pre-sent to me this year could you please pay back the dough you havé borrowed during the past twelve months. In any other station in the country you would be fired twice each week and still I worry along with you. However, I love all of you like a father, se merry Xmas just the same. (Don't forget to pay your debts.).

Ballad balloting is the game in which Eleanor Moore, so-prano, sings popular songs dur-ing the "Dr. Ken-Rad Unsolved Mysteries" over WLW, 10 to 10:30 p. m., (E.S.T.) Sundays. Each week Miss Moore sings the songs requested by the most listeners. It may be an old favorite or one of the more mod-ern ballads.

AROUND THE DIAL (Continued from page 5)

nouncers undergo in winter s.must be terrible. Witness the heart-rending plight of the program-spieler who act-ually had to shave in cold water. The C. I. O. Ought to do something about it; for instance, require bedside mikes. Of course listeners who must labor for an hour before breakfast shovel-ing snow and coal have no reason to complain. Being listeners, they're made of coarser stuff.

This Column's satisfaction over the dropping of speeches from the Car-borundum program turns out to have been premature. After one week's relief, the December 11 program again included an industrialist mono-logue, with the result that listeners were deprived of most of a Sousa march. That represents a net loss.

The dial-twister isn't Santa Claus. But if he were, hed pull these gifts out of his capacious pack. For radio comedians, one real laugh a week. For all shows produced in Hollywood, train fare back to New York. For "Colonel" Andre Carlin, a friend who'll take him aside and tell him

about his singing. For the writers of commercials, writer's cramp after the first 100 words. For swing-band di-rectors, a hand-embroidered motto, "Silence is golden." For most "per-sonality" singers, a chronic case of laryngitis. (Or have they already got it?) ' For studio audiences, thick-ly padded mittens. For all announc-ers, a six-foot neon sign reading, "Don't shout." For Boake Carter, 12 gross of "perhaps." For men who try ,to listen in the daytime, eternal patience._ For all variety shows, variety.

* - * *

The new male lead in Grand Hotel is James Ameche, Don's kid brother. Unless these old ears have gone hay-wire, he's the same lad who's been doing Jack Armstrong.

Yes; they do things differently over there. The other evening while lis-tening to the BBC stations, there was 22 minutes of silence between trans-missions four and five. Imagine the utter consternation that would reign on this side over 22 minutes of "dead air." But of course the British are right. One trouble with American broadcasting is that it goes on and on and on.

Much has been said recently about "investigating" winners. Maybe too much; maybe not enough. We don't

know. But we do know of one sponsor who didn't do the slightest thing to ascertain the circumstances

of their first prize winner and every-thing worked out all right. By "working out all right" we sim-

ply mean that it appeared the spon-sors were hopeful it would reach a deserving person- and it did. The sponsors said "we had no idea whether she needed the money or not. All we knew was that she had won it. She might have had seven cars and ten maids, for all we know. She might have had, but she hadn't."

CLUB

est Reporter

Then her fetter of acknowledge-ment came and here is some of the things she wrote: "I just cannot tell

you what this prize means to me. I drew my last pay check in March, 1932 and have been laid up with a heart condition. Though I am much better I probably will never be able to work again. I have a mother of 88 years entirely dependant on me and no one can possibly know how this outlook worried me and no relief in sight.. "The first thing I did this morning

was to give one-tenth to the church I attend as a thanks offering to the Good Lord for sending me help be-yond anything I tad expected."

Whatever I do, what kick have you got?

You paid your dough for the wrap-per I'm in.

There's something fascinat-ing in reading the exact words that won a prize, especially so when the prize is as important as a Packard automobile. The three following 25 word statements won a Packard each:

(1) "I just couldn't believe it pos-sible for any car to be as comfortable or as easy to handle as the new Packards are." (2) "Sideways is a thing of the past. You round curves so fixedly you'd think the new Packard was grooved to the road." (3) "I like the new Packard ride best. Its' incredibly gentler than any I've ever had before." There

George V continued this practice up to and including Christmas Day, 1935, when he made a plea for peace throughout the world.

King George VI has made only one previous radio address that was heard in the United States. On Co-ronation Day, May 12, of this year, he delivered a coronation address to his people.

Apologies for West-McCarthy Interview

The National Broadcasting Company has received the fol-lowing letter from the J. Walter Thompson Company regarding the broadcast over NBC at 8:00 p. m., on December 12

Mr. Lenox R. Lohr, President National Broadcasting Company. On behalf of our client, Chase

and Sanborn, we wish to express our deepest regret that the pro-gram broadcast Sunday night, De-cember twelfth, gave offense to anyone. Obviously, the whole pur-pose of these broadcasts is to af-ford wholesome entertainment. These programs, over a period of eight years, are evidence of this. The script of this feature of the broadcast was our responsibility. It was a mistake, and we can as-sure the public at large that the same mistake will not be made again.

Sincerely yours, J. Walter Thompson Company Stanley Resor, President.

Mr. Lohr replied: Mr. Stanley Resor, President J. Walter Thompson Company. We appreciate your expression

of concern about the broadcast of December twelfth, against which criticism has been directed. We share with you the regret you ex-press as we share also the respon-sibility in this incident. Our interests are entirely mutu-

al in striving to give to the Ameri-can public the type of wholesome entertainment which it wants, and which it has every right to expect. The National Broadcasting Com-pany can be counted upon to in-tensify its efforts to this end. Sincerely yours, Lenox R. Lohr, President, National Broadcasting Company.

Hear ye ... hear ye! If anyone among you doesn't want to feel the Christmas spirit ... let him turn off his radio. Practically every program this week being re-modeled to include the season cheer ... to say nothing of special shows. WKRC and the Enquirer got the spirit together and the entire staff co-oped in a charity program last Saturday eve ... understand the money came roll-ing in, too. Of course, you've list' to the Mile O' Dime shows on al-most every local station. The Nation's Station begins their spe-cial airings with the Netherland Plaza tree lighting ceremony on Christmas eve ... the Salute to the Cities show becomes the "Salute to Toyland" program and, naturally, carols and high mass celebration from St. Peter's Cathedral are on the schedule. The best treat of all, tho ...the "Legend of King Nut Cracker" suite ... awaited by many- each year.

Since the "For Men Only" show left the air lanes, Paul Sullivan can spend his week-ends by the living room fire, instead of making the airplane jump to New York... and I'll bet he's happy about it. What with wintry snow and dan-gerous mountain tops, it must be swell to get program renewals to keep him in Cincy... and this is just what happened on the 6:30 p. m. WSAI news period ... and extension of 100 more shows.

•

Personality of the•week: Betty Burns furnishes real material for a shooting star this week ... only 18, Betty has an assured future ... she's a Cincy gal, too. Stud-ied dancing locally and when only 16 joined the Don Arden Girls at a night club in town. Just for a lark, Betty sang the lyrics of ser

eral musical numbers ... she was heard officially and liked. A listen to her last Monday on WLW's "Midwestern Stars" show... proved her voice airs well, too. Good luck, Betty.

•

ALONG THE MILKY WAY: Farewell to lovely lady Paxton... WLW's charming Miss departing for parts unknown ... a gal with Mary's looks and ability doesn't need good wishes ... but here's to her. This departure gives lady Gerrard the extra little push up the ladder which she well deserves. Post's chief operator, aeth Powell, gave a perfectly swell interview on 'CPO last week. Possessor of a very good voice, Beth is a likely prospect for radio. Wonder why WLW spotted so many Mary Sothern contest announcements on the schedules last week ... a listen to the show proved there was no contest being conducted ... is this a joke? Don't envy Red Barber his job these rainy, snowy, December days... his "Your Neighbor" show has him tramping around the streets with the Mobile Unit ... doesn't sound like much fun. Spied Babs of the Smoothies working her way thru an Albee crowd. A tune in on Mutual to hear Tom Slater and Columbia to hear Al Helfer.

•

THUMBS UP: The full tran-scription theme on the "It Is Strange" WSAI show .. :unusual as all get out ... don't fail to hear it. This week a special salute to all stars... and a MERRY CHRIST-MAS to each and every one of you.

More star shooting with the Astronomer next week, and, as usual, more peeps at people. THEME UP AND OUT.

life Dramatization of Madame Schumann-Heink Thr life of the haul nationally be-

loved singer, Madame Ernestine

Schumann-Heink, will be dramatized in "Cavalcade of America" over CBS

including WKRC and WHAS Wednesday, December 29, from 8:00 to 8:30 p. m., (EST).

Although it is most unusual for "Cavalcade" to present a repeat per-formance, this dramatization, donc at the same time last year, drew so many commendations that the spon-sors decided upon another per-formance. The part of Madame Schumann-

Heink will be taken by Helen Ohl-heim who had the same role last year. Among selections to be sung will be "Silent Night" and Brahms' "Lullaby."
