HOW TO USE

"WHAT'S ON THE AIR" To Double the Benefits from Your Radio Set

The program- finding service covers the HOW TO FIND THE hours of 6 to 12 P. M. for each day in PROGRAM YOU WANT the month, Eastern Standard Time, or WHEN YOU WANT IT from 5 to 11 P. M., Central Time.

Simply turn to the page bearing date and hour when program is wanted. Select from index in panels at foot of page particular program or type of program you prefer, then locate on sched- ule chosen symbol at nearest point (by use of State index) from which it is being broadcast. Or, if you prefer, check symbols of favorite stations against index of symbols in panels at foot of page until you locate type of program for which your particular mood calls.

Sunday programs appear on pages 8 -13; Monday, pages 14 -19; Tuesday, pages 20 -25; Wednesday, pages 26 -31; Thursday, pages 32 -37; Friday, pages 38 -43; Saturday, pages 44 -49.

HOW TO USE THE Draw lines from the stems of arrows

corresponding to the points on the detector dial of your set where these sta- tions "come in." After you have drawn about a dozen of these lines you will have a guide to all of the stations in the country. For example, if Sta- tion WEAF, which is on channel No. 12 -which means it operates on a fre- quency of 660 kilocycles and 454 meters -comes in on your set at 74, and Station WLW, on channel No. 16, comes in on your set at 67, stations on channels 13, 14 and 15 necessarily must come in at points between these two locations on your dial. The numbers preceding stations on program pages are the channel numbers shown on the "Wave- length Guide."

TO MAKE A LONG- Ascertain which of your local stations

Then start your detector dial at either end of its arc and turn slowly. As soon as you hear the same number, note your dial setting and check back to the column showing wave lengths, thus ascertaining the approximate wave length of the station you are receiving. To the left of this column you will find the call letters of stations on the wave length of that station and those having approximately that wave length. Reference to the schedule of, pro- grams applying to the time you are listening will show you which of these stations is broadcasting the program to which you are listening, and you can thus identify it without having to wait for call letters.

WHAT'S ON THE AIR THE MAGAZINE FOR THE RADIO LISTENER

VOLUME I. FEBRUARY, 1930 NO. 4

A Radio Chief Engineer's Story Swift and thrilling were the events in a career that took a boy from the Texas plains and in fourteen years prepared him to be technical director of one of the world's leading broadcasting systems

An interview with Paul Greene secured for "WHAT'S ON THE AIR" readers

By "BILL" SCHUDT, Jr.

1VI ODEST, unassuming

Paul Greene sits in his private office on the twenty -third story of the luxurious new Columbia Broadcasting System build- ing in New York and si- lently looks across, through his window, at the East River and Queens. Paul is

"silent" -his conversations are short, but exceedingly pleasant. In his hands are the strings that control the programs going to the gi- gantic network which reaches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Gulf to the Hudson Bay in Canada. The short -wave station, W2 XE, through which Columbia programs are flung in every direction to every nation in the world, is under his personal supervision, as is the pow- erful key station, WABC, which will shortly become the and most modern broadcaster.

The story of Paul Greene's life reads like fiction. Here is Paul now, and here is the story as he told it to us:

"I've always been interested in radio," Paul Greene declared. "It was my greatest hobby when I was a

boy down in Rogers, Tex. -right out in the plain country that lies south of Dallas. While I was getting my lessons I managed to get a good deal of radio in- formation too. There was a time, of course, when I thought that I wanted to go into ranching. Every Texan gets that fever sooner or later. But I recov-

world's most powerful "Physics

ered from it and went ahead with my study of wireless. That was back in the time before licenses were required. There wasn't any audio and the sets were all spark -coil con- trivances. It was hard to get hold of catalogs and re- liable books on radio, and harder still to get appara- tus. If I sent to Duck or Lowenstein for some part, a month might elapse be- fore it could be procured.

"My father thought I was wasting my time. He used to object to my home - built instruments. As far as he could see, I was sim- ply cluttering the house with `junk.' He could not understand what made me scrape my pennies together and send them off for a

new condenser or an im- proved detector.

was easy for me in high school. I majored in science and employed much of my time in the study of mechanics and electricity. During my last year in high school I was instructor in physics. That brought my father around somewhat, but he still was mystified by anything as experimental as radio, and wanted me to become a teacher of science.

"But college and further theoretical study was sud- denly interrupted during my first year at college. The United States declared war on Germany. I was nine- teen then, just old enough to go. My radio ambitions restrained me for just six days. On April 12 I enlisted for service in the Naval Flying Corps.

Page 4 WHAT'S ON THE AIR

"Almost immediately I was ordered to Pensacola, Fla., where I took up the study of general aeronautics, design, construction, theory, mechanics, gunnery, meteorology and navigation. Within a few weeks, however, the Government dropped an official bomb among the enlisted men by the issuance of an order prohibiting any but commissioned officers to take to the air. In spite of our study, we were to be nothing but ground men. But the order produced so much indignation and discontent that it was soon mitigated by the decision that all those protesting should have examination and the chance of thorough training in the Officers' Training -school.

Of the 162 men in my company who took the ensuing examination, thirteen passed. I was one of them. We stayed at Pensacola and finished our train- ing in groundwork.

"Volunteers were sought for the study of lighter - than -air ships which were to be constructed at Akron, O. I offered to go and was transferred to Akron for ground training in lighter- than -air work. Shortly after my arrival at the Ohio factories I received my commission as ensign in the U. S. Naval Reserve Fly- ing Corps. At that time I qualified as pilot for three different kinds of craft -balloons, captive balloons and non -rigid dirigibles.

"After the commission came an order to report back to Pensacola as instructor in lighter- than -air fly- ing. I returned to Florida with the first group of officers appointed for such instruction. The heavier - than -air men looked upon our work as a huge joke, but we soon demonstrated that blimps could do any- thing that the heavier- than -air machines could do.

"I was made dirigible instructor and my duties were extended to include the supervision of three plants at Pensacola, then employed in the manufac- ture of hydrogen gas. That was a new job and a

difficult one. Nevertheless, more complicating re- sponsibilities followed.

"I had qualified as pilot for both lighter- than -air and heavier - than -air ships, and was now appointed acting battalion commander of the entire lighter - than -air contingent, comprising about two thousand men. I was also acting as an instructor in radio and as a teacher of blimp flying. In this last capacity I was required to teach not only aerial navigation, but gunnery, bomb -dropping, scouting and mechanics.

"Scarcely had I accustomed myself to these various duties when I received a radiogram from Washington which instructed me quite simply to `report imme- diately' to the Capitol. Forty -eight hours later I was in the office of Admiral Griffin, head of the Bureau of Steam Engineering. There I was informed that I had been chosen to study radio equipments and installa- tions for airplanes, and that my study would keep me in New York and Washington. I was told that after I had familiarized myself with the work I was to take

charge of all radio communication on the navy planes abroad.

It seemed to me to be the biggest chance of , my life. Naturally, what I wanted more than anything else at that time was the chance to go overseas. For the next three or four months I worked as I had never worked before, and then came another sudden rever- sal of all that I had expected. I was informed that Admiral Walter Worthington had issued orders com- manding me to remain in New York and undertake all inspection of radio equipment for the navy, for the vessels of the fleets, as well as for the flying -ma- chines. During the months that followed I acted both as aide to Admiral Worthington and as general inspec- tor of naval radio. While engaged in these duties I received two promotions. Admiral Worthington had ordered me jumped from ensign to senior lieutenant, but previous to his recommendation some one had already suggested me for junior lieutenant.

"Just as I was again in hopes of getting overseas the armistice was declared. I remained in New York for several months adjusting the work, canceling con- tracts. I was then placed on inactive duty.

"In 1920 I secured a position in Houston, Tex., as hull equipment supervisor and machinery inspector of Shipping Board vessels built in the Gulf district. Within the year work was completed and the offices closed.

"That brings me to 1921. I returned to New York and accepted a position as radio engineer with the Western Electric Company. Radio was then begin- ning to come into its own, commercially. During the next two years I was detailed on the installation of broadcasting stations. There were seven of them in all -WOR, Newark; WOC, Davenport; KOP, De- troit; WBAP, Ft. Worth; WFAA, Dallas; WMC, Memphis; WLW, Cincinnati, and WSAI, Cincinnati.

"The last station was installed in April, 1923. Prior to its official opening I was offered the position of manager and accepted. At first I was manager, an- nouncer and musical director. It wasn't easy. The transmitter was originally operated on motor genera- tor sets. WSAI was the first station to install the A and B battery system. Countless stations followed our example."

And so, seeking greater things, Paul Greene came to New York in October, 1928, and immediately signed up as technical director of the Columbia Sys- tem. Early in January, when Columbia purchased WABC, then owned by Alfred H. Grebe, Greene was placed in charge of the station. To this day he is man- ager of WABC, although his countless duties as tech- nical director for CBS keep him on the jump most of the day and night.

But Paul is not finished yet -he's just beginning; there will be much more to tell about this young man some time in the future!

WHAT'S ON THE AIR Page 5

Distance Lends Enchantment By ROBERT M. STARR

OUR next program, ladies and gentlemen, comes to you from Holland." A moment of tense,

expectant silence, then another cheery voice issuing from the loud- speaker, as strong and clear as the first: "Hello, the United States! Hello, the entire English - speaking world! This is Station PHI, at Huizon, Hol- land, broadcasting a special Christmas program. A merry Christmas, everybody!"

So began the three -and -a- half -hour European pro- gram from the Netherlands, Germany and England, rebroadcast over the coast -to -coast network of the National Broadcasting Company, which made Christ- mas so memorable in millions of American homes. Preceding it was another program originating on this side of the wintry Atlantic and rebroadcast in the Netherlands and England, marking, together, the first regularly scheduled international exchange of radio programs on a large scale between America and Eu- rope.

"The most pretentious and successful effort yet made at an international exchange of entertainment and greetings" is how the engineers characterized the affair. And they were right. Only sticklers for per- fection could complain at the trifling static and fad- ing which marred reception at the American end.

"The most potent and direct means for fostering international understanding" is the way representa- tive statesmen and publicists judged the importance of the event. And they, too, were right. Certainly when thousands of intervening miles can be wiped out, and Americans and Europeans brought together in the intimacy of their own homes, the conditions for mutual respect and affection are bettered.

Still, without any wish or intent to belittle either of these views, it is safe to say that, for the av- erage dial- twister, the big thrill of the inter- national exchange of Christmas programs lay simply in the primor- dial lure of distance.

Static and fading could have been atro- cious. The Dutch and German music could have been execrable, the British sketches a total loss, the greetings an in- vitation for all Ameri- cans to go jump in the lake. But, if he had

heard Europe, the typical fan would have called it a

red - letter day. People are like that because they have imagination.

It is the age -old call of far places, the call which draws men down to the sea in ships, over mountains and deserts, through jungle and forest, to a goal wrapped in the enticing haze of glamor. And it seems high time to say that not the least of radio's blessings is that it can satisfy this instinctive wanderlust; vicariously, to be sure, but in a very real sense and with the mere turning of a dial.

In fact, it was this thrill of getting distance that, almost single- handed, sent radio away to its phenom- enal start back in 1921 and 1922. Every veteran will agree that reception was little short of terrible with the blacksmithed equipment then available. Pro- grams, too, were such as to cause anything but wild enthusiasm, judged by present -day standards. Yet thousands of youths -in spirit at least- bought parts at war prices and tinkered together their own receiv- ers for the ecstatic "kick" of hearing something flung on the evening air two or five hundred miles away (really respectable distance in those days) .

And distance -getting continued to be the real punch of radio until 1925 or 1926. Sleep became nearly a lost art. "What did you get last night ?" was the password which opened the doors of the fan lodge the morning after, and something worth bringing to the attention' of brother dial- twisters (not always modestly, it must be admitted) gradually went up from one thousand to two thousand or three thousand miles as equipment improved.

Then, about 1925 or 1926, a blight descended on the gentle art of DXing. (DX, by the way, is merely the telegrapher's code abbreviation for dis- tance.) Women began using the simplified re- ceivers which came on the market about that time. Programs had become worth hearing of themselves, and for some reason, doubtless peculiar to the sex, the fair listeners protested lustily at the nightly pastime of bringing them in from the wide, open spaces, heretofore followed in more or less peace by the men.

Nearly a mile in the air, Leslie Toy broadcasting frocs a plane high oser

Page 6 WHAT'S ON THE AIR

Chain broadcasting, which made its appearance about this time, also helped to cramp the style of the "distance hounds." The same program carried by fif- teen or twenty stations scattered over the country could be heard from a local. So most listeners formed the habit of sticking with the local most of the time.

But the DXer did not die out. He comes of too hardy stock, and the urge which drives him is too strong. After the rest of the family called it an eve- ning, he continued to steal an hour or two from Mor- pheus for his dial wanderings. He began foregather- ing with kindred spirits in organized DX clubs, and, whenever a new receiver was bought, he put in a plea for something with the ability to go out and fetch 'em in.

Now, all this perseverance has been rewarded. Most listening is still to local or near -by stations, on the basis of program content. But more people than ever before -even including not a few women -twirl their dials part of the time simply to "get stations." For proof of this, there is the action of the Federal Radio Commission in setting aside forty frequencies for the exclusive use of high -power stations, in order that better distance reception may be provided. Also, note how many receiver manufacturers make dis- tance- getting ability an important talking -point for their products.

Yes, the "DX hound," far from being dead, is more alive than at any time since broadcasting began its meteoric history, not only because he has better tools to work with (present -day receivers and transmitters are many times superior to those of even three or four years ago) , but because fishing for distance is, after all, the real sport of radio.

Reception of a station two thousand miles away may not be as perfect as that of a station fifty or one hundred miles away. But no true DXer cares about that. Hearing it gives him the heady elation of quest, the high adventure of blazing his own trail across con- tinents, the quickening zest of turning aside from the well -worn road; and, against a background of daily routine, such an experience stands out in fresh relief.

It is for these reasons that the writer is glad to be an, at times, irrepressible DXer. He makes no claims to world's records. But his experience may have un- covered some pointers which will prove of value to those who thus far have not had a fling at the sport, or whose results are not all that they desire. So he is presuming to offer a few suggestions looking to bigger and better DX reception.

Distance reception depends on three factors -the receiver, atmospheric conditions and the operator - and, mathematically, these three work out to about the following relative importance: receiver, 40 per cent.; atmospheric conditions, 40 per cent.; skill of the operator, 20 per cent.

A moment's thought should show that the first two

are of about equal importance. The most sensitive re- ceiver is useless if atmospheric conditions are such that only local reception is possible; and, conversely, the most favorable conditions will avail nothing if the re- ceiver is "haywire." But what many beginners seem to overlook is that the operator also plays an impor- tant part in getting results. However, more on that presently.

First, as regards the receiver. It must be good, of course, which means a recent model of any of the bet- ter makes. But a good receiver includes more than the actual chassis, tubes and Loud- speaker. It must in- clude an efficient aerial and ground, something which many fans seem to forget.

A DX aerial need not be long. Fifty feet, includ- ing lead -in, is ample for a present -day set, and will give better selectivity and less interference than the old 100 to 125 footer. But it must be well insulated and run in the best direction.

Next, as to atmospheric conditions. The most capricious woman is a gem of consistency compared with them. They may reverse themselves in the space of one or two hours -sometimes even more suddenly -for no reason that can be deciphered. So the only practical rule is "strike while the iron is hot."

Now regarding the operator. On the face of things no particular skill should be required to coax a

modern simplified receiver to "do its stuff." But to get the most from a fine receiver considerably more operating skill is demanded than might appear.

First, the operator must have patience. He must be prepared to wait through static blasts and fading cycles for the all- important call letters, provided they are ever announced -a point on which fans have growing doubts in many cases.

And, perhaps most important of all, he must con- serve his attention powers by holding volume to a

practical minimum. A nice bit of applied psychology is involved here.

With modern high -power amplification, most lis- teners are accustomed to considerable volume, and, to get distance, they naturally turn the control still higher. As a result, their sense of hearing tends to re- spond only to loud signals, causing the weak voices of far -away stations to be unintelligible. The remedy is

to hold volume down to the point which will just bring in the desired station, until announcements are to be made. Then it can be turned up momentarily, with a surprising increase in the ear's sensitiveness, be- sides saving the nerves of other members of the fam- ily. In fact, this one simple trick can be counted on to add several good catches to the string duly recorded in the old log -book, when aided by a good break in the other factors mentioned.

It's a great game, if you can do without sleep. But what certified DXer cares about sleep when a new set of call letters can be added to his list?

By ARTHUR MURRAY America's Poremost Dancing Instructor

This month I will teach you two of the most popular steps

which you can dance to the new, slow music which is now the

rage. Since Rudy Vallee became the vogue, his slow, crooning style

has revolutionized not only the dance music, but the steps as will.

(An Adtwi e,' fo, Trot for Expert am errs Only.)

A running step is a quick walking step; it is twice as fast as

an ordinary walking step. The running steps are known as syncopated steps because

three steps are taken to four beats of the music; you take three

quick running steps, then pause on the fourth beat.

FLOYD GIBBONS, adventurer and radio reporter.

For years a newspaper correspondent, usually attached to some army in the far- away places of the earth, then as a fea- ture story - writer following events of world significance or interest wherever they might beckon him, Floyd Gibbons has come to typify to the public at large the voice of the hardy adventurer.

The popularity of his half -hour "Head- line Hunter" programs, broadcast each Wednesday evening at 10:30 over NBC, led the General Electric Company to add him to its 9 P. M. Saturday program. His descriptions of "Adventures in Science" are radio reports of first -hand investiga- tions he makes in the field of industry and science each week.

O Cathedral Hour Sacred musical service.

e McKesson News Reel of the Air News events with appropriate music.

Q Sermon by the Rev. Donald Grey Barnhouse, of Philadelphia

Q Fox Fur Trappers Orchestra with Earle Nelson, the crooning fur -trapper.

Q Acousticon Program A quartet and orchestra in a program reviv- ing old -time musical hits.

Leader of the "Back Home' Hour.

Let us introduce the Rev. Clinton H. Churchill,pastor of the Back Home Hour, which is now a Sunday night feature of the Columbia network.

Rev. Churchill has a tabernacle at Buf- falo, and during the past five years more than a million persons have attended his services. Because of the present tie -up carrying the program into Canada as well as throughout the United States and to all parts of the globe, by means of the short- wave station, W2XE, at New York City, the press is giving Mr. Churchill the so- briquet "The World's Evangelist."

Besides his evangelistic work, Mr. Churchill is executive vice -president of the Buffalo Broadcasting Corporation, which operates the four principal radio stations of Buffalo.

COLUMBIA PLANS TO SCHEDULE EUROPEAN PROGRAMS REGULARLY

Vanishing Horizons

An Exclusive Statement to "WHAT'S ON THE AIR"

By WILLIAM S. PALEY

President, Columbia Broadcasting System

RADIO to -day is world -wide. It no longer is confined to the borders of our

own country. To -day we find that, through the development of short- wave broadcast transmission, it is possible for us to sit comfortably in our living - rooms in America and tune in on a theater in Paris, or a speech from London. This was recently accomplished when we broadcast from Le Paramount Theater in Paris during the Paramount -Publix International Salute to the new year. This broadcast added another ac_ hievement in the advancement of man's greatest scientific development.

With this and other examples of international exchange of programs before us, we begin to wonder just what the future holds in store.

For one thing, it is apparent that a permanent schedule for the interchange of programs throughout the world is just around the corner. There arises, how- ever, one difficulty -the time element. The difference in time between Europe and the United States means that, to obtain the better evening programs broad- cast from Europe, it is necessary to tune in on them in America during the afternoon.

In the far West this would mean morning reception! The importance of this may finally make necessary the repetition of programs at a later hour for Amer- ica's Western listeners. Such procedure is already in effect in this country. The True Story Hour is broadcast at nine o'clock, Eastern Standard Time. After midnight the same production is re- enacted in the New York studios of the Columbia Broadcasting System and carried by wire to Columbia's Pacific Coast network. Listeners there receive it at nine o'clock. Thus this sponsor can offer the same entertainment every week at the same hour to his listeners on the oppo- site side of the continent.

Such a plan probably will be employed for the more important European pro- grams when the international exchange regularly begins.

We expect to experiment with transfer of programs with Norway some time

The index letters in schedules indicate type of pro- gram which will predominate during respective half -hour broadcast period.

this spring. This, of course, would be on a permanent operating schedule, much the same as we now exchange an hour or two a week with our key station on the Pacific Coast.

These broadcasts would not be the same as rebroadcasts from foreign stations. They would be actual, direct pick -ups from those points in the same manner that we run a wire into the Yankee Stadium or the Polo Grounds to broadcast a

football game. Of course the pick -up has to travel over the ocean by short waves, and then again over land wires into the key station, WABC, New York, before it is routed over the nation -wide network of the Columbia System.

When final arrangements have been completed between Norway and the Columbia System, the exchange of programs will be made by direct, short -wave medium. We expect to utilize our own short -wave receiving- station at Cross Bay Boulevard, New York, for this purpose.

Exchange of programs with Europe already is a sound reality. Regularity of such exchange is next. Shortly the Atlantic and the Pacific will be regularly spanned with programs which will become the stabilizer of good will and under- standing among peoples.

Mountainville True Life Sketches By "BILL" SCHUDT, Jr.

OUT "thar" in the hills lies Mountainville. It is an ordinary village; there is really

nothing different, nothing unusual about it- it is just Mountainville! So typical was this quiet little hamlet nestled way up in the hills that Morris Littmann, owner of the Littmann Stores in New York City, sought to give the public in general a chance to see into this homey clump of houses and little businesses.

Mr. Littmann spent his last sum- mer's vacation in Mountainville to get the trend of life there. Upon his return to the metropolis early in the fall he conferred with Yolande Langworthy, the noted radio play- wright, and she began the writing of a series of sketches built around the actual people of Mountainville. So it was that the Mountainville True Life Sketches were born.

For her players Miss Langworthy called up- on four members of the dramatic department of the Columbia System. Ten juvenile actors and actresses were selected from theatrical ranks after an exhaustive research for the proper types for the various parts.

The cast set, the company went into re- hearsal and shortly announced the premier of Mountainville. Mountainville did not "click"

the first night, as the theatrical critics would have put it. It went on for four weeks with little or no attention. Then all of a sudden - the way that these miracles in radio happen, the way that genius is discovered- Mountain- ville hit the innermost recesses of hard -boiled New York's heart; Mountainville was widely acclaimed by mothers, fathers and their chil-

dren from five to fifty years of age. Mr. Littmann, amid flowers in his

private office, sat back and smiled. Not satisfied with the mere suc-

cess of his drama, Mr. Littmann had another plan which, when worked out, would bring even more enter- tainment to his radio public. His idea was a Tiny Tots Theater of the Air. A miniature theater - stage, orchestra -pit, seats for the audience and all, even to the spotlights -was erected in the world studio at CBS

headquarters especially for Mountainville. So large is the audience every week seeking

admittance to the Tiny Tots Theater of the Air that Mr. Littmann says he will build a

large radio theater atop his new building on Broadway, now under construction. This, he asserts, will be opened to the public to wit- ness the actual broadcasting of the Mountain- ville plays each week.

MONDAY EVENINGS at 7:30, back of the footlights on the Tiny Tots Theater of the Air, are the "Mountainville" players -a 1VABC feature.

The index letters in schedules indicate type of pro- gram which will predominate during respective half -hour broadcast period.

" VOICES from FILMLAND"

WITH February, "Voices from Film - land" begins its second month on the

air. This program, offered by the Purity Ba- keries, originates in Hollywood, in time to reach the East coast members of the Columbia chain at 7:30 P. m. each Monday.

"Voices from Filmland" offers unusual va- riety of talent. In addition to Earl Burtnett's dance orchestra, a large studio chorus, the Fresh Bakery Harmony Boys, and the above

pictured Biltmore Trio, guest artists from the movie colony, are presented each week.

Anita Page, for example, is known to movie fans for her work in such successes as "Our Dancing Daughters," "The Broadway Mel- ody," "The Flying Fleet," "Hollywood Re- vue" and "Speedway." Of recent months the Biltmore Trio have been practically movie folk -they are to be seen and heard in many "talking" pictures.

RADIO GOSSIP

Rudy Vallee, the popular leader of the Fleischmann Sunshine Hour, Thursday, 8 to 9 r. M., is said to be able to speak Spanish like a native of Castile.

During 1930 there will be a larger number than ever before of internationally famous con- cert artists, political and social figures, heard over the air. Already plans are being per- fected for the presentation of a number of outstanding personalities to the radio public. Summer months are no longer regarded as

IRENE BORDONI, star of stage and screen and a charmer of men, was featured with Rudy Vallee, a charmer of women, on a recent Fleisch-

man:: program over NBC.

closed season for program listeners; increased power in transmitting, new talent before the microphones, new equipment with which to bring them to your homes -all will add their share to what promises to be the most wonder- ful summer in all the experience of radio fans.

WGHP is busy acknowledging congratula- tions from fans all over America on its new transmitter. This Detroit member of the CBS is reaching out with real volume and excellent modulation nowadays.

4t;

Formal opening of the new NBC studios in Chicago (tentatively set for February 1) will be a gala occasion. Listeners will do well to watch the newspapers for this event. The new Chicago studios will be situated on top of the Merchandise Mart, the world's largest building, in the heart of the city. There are to be six studios at the start, including Studio A, which will be the largest radio theater in the world, with room for a thousand persons. A great pipe -organ and a raised stage are features of this studio.

James W. H. Weir, technical radio editor of the Pittsburgh Press, in his message to the "Home Radio Club" of Pittsburgh recently, recalled some facts probably unknown to most listeners about the past of some of the call let- ters now in use by broadcasting stations. He said, in part:

"The call letters of the Buffalo station, WGR, were once the radio identification of a Pacific Coast passenger steamer by the name of 'Governor.' This vessel sank, following its collision with the freighter 'West Hartland' in April of 1921. Eight lives were lost. WSB, of Atlanta, Ga., is another quite famous call. The S. S. 'Francis H. Leggett' was the first possessor, and, after foundering off the Oregon coast Sept. 18, 1914, taking a toll of sixty - seven lives, the call was reassigned to the 'Fire- wood,' a vessel burned off Peru, Dec. 18, 1919. The entire human cargo was saved. KLZ, of Denver, Col., belonged to the 'Speedwell' in 1920, a vessel which was caught in a tropical hurricane on September 29 of the same year, in the Gulf of Mexico. Nine of the twenty - five people aboard were lost. KRE, of Berk- eley, Calif., presents a most sorrowful mem- ory. It belonged to the 'Florence H.,' which was wrecked by an internal explosion on Apr. 17, 1918, in Quiberon Bay, taking a toll of forty -five lives."

Walter Damrosch sprang a happy surprise on the radio public a few weeks ago when he tendered a radio reception to the famous Russian composer, Alex- andre Glazounoff, during his Saturday night General Electric program. A brilliant array of musical celebrities, led by Leopold Godowsky, Mr. and Mrs. Arturo Bodansky, Efrem Zimbalist, Josef Hoffman, Rubin Goldmark, Prince and Princess Obolonsky, Alexander Lambert, were present.

Dr. Damrosch devoted the nation -wide broadcast to a performance of Gla- zounoff's Symphony No. S. Dr. Damrosch introduced the composer as "the last of a famous line."

"He is the last of a famous dynasty," Dr. Damrosch said, "which began with Glinka, and has led through Cesar Cui, Tschaikowsky, Moussorgsky, Rimsky- Korsakoff to Glazounoff. His is a great fertility of melodic theme; he is a

master of form on the old classic scale, and his orchestration is exquisite."

WHAT'S ON THE AIIt Page 23

RUSSIAN YIUSIC

On the Air

An Interpretation Written for WHAT'S ON THE AIR by the Director of Russian Pro-

grams, CBS

BY

PETER BILJO

ONT the American program, Russian music has consisted largely of two varieties -

the classic music of composers of international fame, and the gay, noisy music of peasant dances. There is, however, another phase of Russian music -the tales and ballads of old Russia, springing from all the different aspects of national life, the music of the workers in the factory who have their own way of life and philosophy, the music of the soldiers, chansonettes and light opera from the city, the songs of the-gypsies.

America knows little of the local differences which are significant in their effect on Rus- sian music, and the wide variations in climate, custom, language, racial characteristics-from the east to the west, from the north to the south, over the vast expanse. of Russian terri- tory, are not recognized. The music that would best explain these differences and pre- sent so many shades and moods has been mean- ingless because of the barrier of language. Just as many of the old songs of American life, dear to American hearts -"Yankee Doodle," "Old Black Joe" -would be meaningless to a Russian unfamiliar with the language, so are the ballads of old Russia, with their great number of verses and constantly repeated mu- sical theme, tiresome to an American audience.

The United States in general knew very lit-

tle about Russia before the war -it was just a large, rather mysterious and very cold coun- try. But Russia has its Florida, its California, its middle West, just as it has its Alaska. It happens that the centers of interest and infor- mation for Russia have been two northern cities, St. Petersburg and Moscow, with cli- mates resembling Winnipeg, while the drama- tic and tragic history of Siberia has stamped its impression on the minds of many people who know little else about Russia. The wide differences in customs and habits have natu- rally influenced the music of the people. Ne- gro spirituals from Georgia may sound strange to Alaskan ears, but the fact that similar dif- ferences of taste and expression occur in other countries has been too often overlooked.

Just as Americans think of Russia as bar- bark, cold, desolate, inhabited only by fierce wolves and.- bèars, and almost as fierce and hardy peasants, so to the Russian there is an impression of America -a wild land inhabited by Indians, or one big city with tall buildings, entirely devoted to business and commerce. It would give a false impression of American music, and one quite distasteful to the natives, to regard as typical the war cries and minor chants of Indian legend, nor could any one, from the point of New York City, for in- stance, get a fair impression of American

songs. Such misunderstandings occur in pre- senting Russian programs. It would give a

very confused impression of Russian life if all the music was presented as from one region, just as if a program of spirituals, old folk songs, college songs and' Indian songs was given as the native music of Ohio.

The real essence of Russian life, the spirit of its people in every class of society, in every region of its territory, is found in the ballads, for through them the soul of the country could find its only expression. Political sup- pression, rigid custom and creed stifled much spontaneous activity in every phase of Rus-. sian life, but through music every one could find an outlet. Hence, music in Russia is as

universal as it is varied in its expressions. The deepest spiritual significance can be found in many of the words, and the melodies them- selves have the haunting beauty of themes closely connected with the heart of a people.

These songs, when heard understandingly, have a peculiar appeal to the American people, for they carry something that America has not yet developed for herself, and yet for which she feels a need. American musical programs present the dignified and authentic classic mu- sic or revel in the rhythmic jazz, but lack in music of sympathetic, intimate tenderness closely related to human experience. The man or woman seeking to replenish the spirit through music will turn to the music of the

country most sympathetic to his needs, and in this kind of Russian music there is every shade of feeling and type of experience.

In presenting programs which reach mil- lions of listeners of every difference in experi- ence and in interest, an attempt has been made to give the background of the melody, and, through a brief translation of the song itself, to give an idea of its mood, its theme, its origin. As much as possible in the few min- utes in each program each song must carry to the American listeners its own message, and interest them not only in music, but in Russia as well. They must reach homes where Amer- ican mothers are bringing up their children to regard the people of other races, not from the viewpoint of politics, of war, of racial differ- ences and antagonisms, not even as subjects in geography or history, but as real people, hu- man beings akin to themselves.

Through the co- operation of the CBS and the continuity department, it has been possi- ble to give some brief explanation of the songs and a glimpse of Russian history. Through the work of the continuity writer, from the translations of the songs is selected the es- sence. In a few words the spirit of the theme is given, rather than a verbal translation, and with this aid and the coloring of the melody which accompanies it, the barriers of language and race are surmounted, and one more step taken towards international understanding.

Shrine Night at KMOX At Last " Friend Wife '' Gets in on Hubby's "Lodge Meeting" - . - - - - Via Radio

WHO ever thought" thát the initiation ceremony of a Masonic body would

be broadcast over a radio station? Theo. R. Appel, Illustrious Potentate, of Moolah Tem- ple, A.A.O.N.M.S., St. Louis, conceived the idea of doing something different, thereby breaking all former Masonic traditions. Nat- urally it took a lot of courage to put over this conviction, which Appel did, and the result was the broadcasting for -thefirst time in the his- tory of Shrinedom of the second section of the initiation ceremony of that body, which took place at the Fox Theater in St. Louis at twelve o'clock midñight,,Saturday, November 30.

After completing arrangements with Noble George Junkin, managing director of Radio Station KMOX, "The Voice of St. Louis," and Noble Harry Greenman, manager of the Fox Theater in St. Louis, and with the ap- proval and co- operation of Leo V. Young - worth, Imperial Potentate of the Shrine Order for North America, the largest "invisible" network ever to broadcast such an event, con- sisting of eighty -four- stations from the At- lantic to the Pacific Coast and from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, was assembled. Dur- ing this elaborate and especially arranged pro-

gram, whieli began promptly at midnight and lasted until 4 A. M., many telegrams from all parts of the United States and Canada were received at the theater, congratulating Moolah Temple and KMOX on this unusual broadcast, favorable comments coming from both mem- bers and non -members of the Masonic frater- nity.

While it is needless to say that the six hun- dred thousand Shriners over North America were keenly interested in "listening in" on this program, the first of its kind ever attempted, the thing that made the broadcast worth while, according to Noble George Junkin, managing director of KMOX, the key station to broadcast the ceremonial, after reviewing the thousands of letters which poured into the station following the broadcast, was the ap- preciation of thousands of listeners through- out the country to the work done by the Shrine through their hospitals for crippled children. It made possible a better under- standing by the public at large that the Shrine is not merely a playground for Masons, but an organization that is doing a wonderful work and rendering an invaluable service both to the community and to humanity, Junkin said.

THE CAST OF THE RADIO HOUSEHOLD INSTITUTE." From left to right: Mr. Thomas, Mr. Cameron, Miss Carter, Miss Burns, Mr. Brenton.

Let the Radio Household Institute Help You

The Radio Household Institute -Elizabeth Carter, director -is on the air every week -day morning except Friday, beginning at 11:15, Eastern 'rime, or 10:15, Central Time, over WEAF and associated stations of NBC.

PROBABLY everybody has heard the joke about the Scotchman who went to the

races for the first time in his life. He bet a

dollar and won ten; and the first thing he said was, "Why didn't somebody tell me about this before ?"

Something of the same sort happens when women tune in on the Radio Household Insti- tute for the first time, and find out how much help in all their home -making problems is

waiting for them. They usually sit right down and send the Institute a grateful and enthusiastic letter: "I'm so glad I've discov- ered you! I only wish I'd learned about you sooner."

And the comparison holds good still further -for, although the Institute can't turn one dollar into ten, it can and does tell women everywhere how to stretch each dollar to the limit, and get the very most out of it.

Everybody on the Institute staff is continu-

ally on the lookout for brand -new ideas, and every idea is passed right on to the listeners - in. Perhaps somebody hears about a new recipe -a new way to make a cake, or a pie, or a batch of delicious biscuits. The recipe is

immediately tried out in the Institute kitchen, and, if it's successful, the Institute audience hears all about it over the air.

It might be a suggestion for an unusual Sunday night supper menu, or maybe some- body has discovered a brand -new way to tempt children to drink milk! Whatever it is, the Institute passes it on, because that's why they're on the air -to give women every possible help with all of their home -making problems.

The Institute is something like the morning paper -it brings you all the latest news on happenings in the home -making world. And it not only keeps abreast of the times, but ahead of them! For instance, 'way back in

November listeners -in were being told how to make their Christmas fruit -cake,so they could put it away to age and have a delicious treat when Christmas came. And long before the first robin appears, the audience of the Radio Household Institute will be getting hints on easy spring cleaning and fixing up the house for hot weather!

The Institute programs are planned to cov- er every phase of home -making. That's a big order, isn't it? But run- ning a home and raising a

family is a big order too! And every day in the week a thousand letters come in, from women all over the country, asking for advice and help. That's a lot of mail - and the programs have to be varied, in order to answer all the different questions which listeners - in ask.

Many of these problems have a universal interest. If Mrs. Smith, of Minne- sota, wants a new recipe for

sketches, with Billy Brenton playing the part of the young husband? Do you especially en- joy the cooking talks by Miss Carter, with all kinds of new recipes and menus? Would you like to hear oftener from Mrs. Milton on the subject of raising a family? Do you want more music by Mr. Thomas? Whatever your preferences, every listener -in,is urged to write to the Institute and make her own sugges- tions. Be sure they will be welcome.

It's the letters in the

i daily mail -bag that tell the

DO YOU WANT - Brand -new recipes Unusual menus Entertainment ideas Practical washing methods Advice on the care and feed-

ing of children Hints on hostessing New beauty secrets Fascinating fashion letters House- cleaning helps Unusual free samples? Tune in on the Radio House- hold Institute, and find out how to get them! The Institute is on the air every week -day morning, except Friday, begin- ning at 11:15 Eastern time and 10:15 Central time.

baking -powder biscuits, we know that a program devoted to delicious, new ways to make biscuits and muffins and all kinds of hot breads will be appreciated by everybody. On the other hand, a great many of the letters ask for help on personal prob- lems, and each of these letters receives an in- dividual reply.

These questions range all the way from "What color shall I paint my daughter's bed- room?" to "Please tell me how to feed a fam- ily of four on twenty -five dollars a week;" or, "I am a little girl ten years old. What can I give my mother for her birthday ?"

It is lots of fun to answer these different requests! The Institute maintains a special department of trained writers who spend all their time delving through the library, look- ing up the information that is necessary for each individual letter. No question goes un- answered, and every letter is sent out in the spirit of warm personal friendliness.

The Institute is always eager for suggestions from listeners -in. What sort of programs do you like best? Do you like the domestic

Institute staff how to plan their programs. And the mail -bag certainly does bulge sometimes! Tens of thousands of enthusiastic women wrote in for the pastry tube which was of- fered as a very special Christmas gift; so the In- stitute feels sure that a lot of tempting cakes are go- ing to be served in homes all over the country dur- ing the coming year!

The pastry tube was just one of many, many

free offers made by the Radio Household Institute. Every day it's a different sur- prise! Recipes, menus, beauty secrets, fashion letters, party hints, washing methods -these are some of the offers made each morning over the air. And every one is practical and helpful. It's not surprising that women who are just discovering the Institute are sorry for the two years of help and entertainment and practical free offers which they have missed! But there are more years ahead, and the Radio Household Institute promises to keep up the good work.

READERS interested in locating the nearest sta- tion carrying the various home -interest programs will find the schedule of "Daytime Chain Pro- grams," which appears on page 44 of this issue, of considerable help to them.

The stations listed are those which have been carrying the specified programs with reasonable regularity. Numbers of other stations, however, carry them on a part -time basis.

The index letters in schedules indicate type of pro- gram which will predominate during respective half -hour broadcast period.

RADIO GOSSIP .

The Federal Radio Commission reveals, in a mass of tabulated reports recently turned over to the Senate, that less than half of the na- tion's broadcasting stations are showing a profit on their activities; many are not even meeting expenses with their revenues. The prediction of the radio body is, however, that in time all stations now operating will not only be able to make expenses, but will actually be able to show a few figures on the better side of the books.

An actual theater of the air has been created at Station WABC, key station of the Columbia Broadcasting System, and the whole set -up is

exceedingly appealing to the fans who come to the studios to see the enactments of the various broadcasts. There is a miniature state, a pit for the orchestra and comfortable chairs for more than two hundred visitors. The whole idea was conceived by Morris Littmann, spon- sor of the Mountainville Sketches.

4V

Public sentiment is growing steadily against those stations (the smaller ones, usually) which are co- operating to give place on the air to quack doctors, patent medicines of dubious value and a host of other schemes to reap the harvest long since denied them by the public prints. It is but a question of time until such broadcasts will be driven from the air. Taint- ed commercial organizations have no proper place in radio save to be named in a warning against their operation.

The new year is going to bring relief to listeners in the form of a Federal Radio Com- mission monitor stationed at Grand Island, Neb., which, when completed; will be "the

most sensitive ear in the world." This huge ear will be able to check broadcasters to see that they keep their allotted frequencies con- stant. The measurements claimed as possible for this instrument will be accurate to one part in one million. Stations with power from ten to thirty thousand watts will be under the scrutiny of Uncle Sam.

Book lovers are finding an increasing amount of pleasure in the book talks delivered by vari- ous stations. The interest in radio -book re- views dates back to the earliest days of broad- casting; one station, KGO, Oakland, Calif., has been carrying the reviews of Joseph Henry Jackson for six years, and the feature has met with remarkable success. More than thirty stations now carry regular book talks or pres- ent book features at more or less regular inter- vals. These broadcasts occur usually during the morning or afternoon hours, though some steps are being taken to switch them to eve- ning time in many cases.

Farm people do most of their radio listening during the daylight hours, according to a re- cent survey conducted by Station WLS, the Prairie Farm Station, Chicago. The women of rural districts listen in more between the hours of nine and ten in the morning and two and four in the afternoon than at other times. The "men- folks" usually prefer mid -morning broadcasts and those of the noon hour. Eve- ning broadcasts that reach the ears of farm folk are those sent out in the early hours. Generally, WLS reports, the radio is regarded by farmers more as a means of service than as a source of entertainment. Markets, weather reports and agricultural talks hold the prefer- ence of most listeners.

RADIO GOSSIP

Reinald Werrenrath, noted American bari- tone, has been named vocal supervisor of the National Broadcasting Company. Werrenrath will direct special choral groups which will be heard in radio presentations, and will do for vocal music on the air what. Walter Damrosch has done for instrumental ensembles, according to plans of the NBC. Arrangements include also an agreement between the broadcasting company and this ever -popular artist that his broadcasts be heard exclusively over the NBC network. Personal appearances in concerts will not be interrupted by this new work which Werrenrath undertakes with so much enthu- siasm. George Engles, vice -president in charge

DR. ARTHUR TORRANCE, scientist, explorer, big -game hun- ter, tills thrilling stories of his experiences over Columbia, Saturdays at 8 p. in., E. S. T.

of programs, says that, when present plans of the company are worked out, NBC will have the most competent and experienced staff of advisers and supervisors in the history of mu- sic and entertainment.

Reinald Werrenrath, noted baritone, and Lannie Ross, young tenor, met recently for the second time in their lives. The first meeting occurred several years ago in Copenhagen, while the baritone was visiting his home city and Ross was a member of the Yale Glee Club. Werrenrath heard Ross sing. "If you ever want to do any broadcasting back in America, go to the National Broadcasting Company and tell them I sent you," the baritone told the tenor. Now Ross is heard on several NBC programs each week, while the baritone is con- nected with radio in a business capacity.

Sophie Tucker, self -styled the "last of the red -hot mammas," is appearing twice each week before the microphone at WBBM, in Chicago. Her inimitable red -hot and comedy numbers will be heard exclusively from this station. The new high- powered transmitter of WBBM and its central location were largely responsi- ble for choice of this station. Miss Tucker's voice is heard on Tuesday and Thursday eve- nings at 11 r. M. (C. S. T.). That hour is

not too late to find Eastern listeners still at their sets, nor too early to be appreciably af- fected by the distance -cutting daylight with which the far -West fans have to contend. These broadcasts will feature many of the new songs written especially for the European tour Miss Tucker will begin shortly.

Station WENR, Chicago, has been produc- ing a series of particularly fine broadcasts in the interest of co- operative marketing in the agricultural field. Sam H. Thompson, presi- dent of the American Farm Bureau Federation, opened the series on January 7. He has been followed at weekly intervals by such men as M. S. Winder, secretary of the same organiza- tion; S. J. Cottingham, president Farmers' Na- tional Grain Corporation, and J. D. Harper, editor of the National Producer. February schedules are not complete, but W. H. Settle, president Indiana Farm Bureau Federation, and W. L. Stahl, director of publicity, Farmers' National Grain Corporation, have been sched- uled for February 4 and 11.

The index letters in schedules indicate type of pro- gram which will predominate during respective half -hour broadcast period.

AS composer, orchestra leader, musical director, recording expert for the RCA Victor Company, and one of the outstanding musical figures in radio

broadcasting, Nathaniel Shilkret is credited with having had a conspicuous part in cultivating and directing the musical taste of the public.

One of his outstanding accomplishments was to study at various times the music of thirty -five countries, select the best of each and rearrange his selections in a manner that would make them appeal to the great body of music -lovers in all countries.

Recently he went into Virginia, West Virginia and other Southern States to study negro folk music among the backwoods negroes who have been least in contact with the outside world and who still retain much of their native sim-

plicity. A veritable mine of primitive music was unearthed, some of which will be recorded and broadcast this season, and will hereafter be part of the collected music of the world. At the moment it may still be heard from the lips of old negro mammies as they croon on the steps of their cabin doors in the long eve-

nings. A few years more and it would have been eternally lost.

Mr. Shilkret's compositions and musical arrangements run into the thousands.

Much of it has been published, some of it recorded, but the vast majority of it is still in rough sheet form. So much has been necessary, because every piece

played by the Victor Salon Orchestra over the radio, for instance, has been spe-

cially arranged for that purpose.

A similar policy guides the work of the International Novelty Orchestra, the

International Symphony Orchestra and the Schrammel (Viennese) Orchestra,

all of which Mr. Shilkret conducts. In addition, he has organized and is musical

adviser to some twenty -five other musical groups.

He is steeped in music. The son of an internationally known clarinetist, Mr.

Shilkret began learning that instrument when he learned to walk. At seven he

was clarinet soloist with the New York Boys' Symphony Orchestra, with which

he toured the country five years. He was later with the Russian Symphony

Orchestra, and has since been with the New York Symphony, New York Phil-

harmonic, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and many others. He is a piano ac-

companist of the first order.

Although the Victor Salon Orchestra is only a little over two years old, every

member of it has been working with Mr. Shilkret ten years. Each was selected

primarily for the tonal quality of his work, which is all- important in recording

and broadcasting.

The index letters in schedules indicate type of pro- gram which will predominate during respective half -hour broadcast period.

Genevieve Rowe, of Wooster, O., and Edward Kane, of Atlanta, Ga., receiving gold medals, checks for $5,000 and a two years' musical scholarship from the sponsor of this annual national radio con -

test-Mr. A. Atwater Kent.

The Winners of the 1929 Atwater Kent Radio Audition

Receive Their Prizes 1 4ORE than two thousand young people

/1 from every walk in life entered the At- water Kent Audition this year. After district auditions had qualified groups for State -wide auditions, and State auditions had produced candidates for regional honors, the regional contests resulted in the selection of five young men and five young women (all of whom re- ceived cash prizes and musical scholarships), who competed in a mid -December Sunday night Atwater Kent Hour for national honors.

In spite of the f act that several entrants

OM

chose the same selection, the contest finals proved to be a program even more interesting and as musically enjoyable as any of the regu- lar Atwater Kent series. While we agreed with the judges as to the winners, we could not have quarreled had the decision favored two others of the young women or one other of the young men.

Undoubtedly Miss Rowe and Mr. Kane will appear from time to time on Atwater Kent programs. It will be interesting to hear them apart from contest surroundings.

WHAT'S ON TILE AIR Page 39

OonLhe \ir in ebrur

By JOSEPH ATOR

IT comes cropping up almost every day - this question of sport promoters refusing

broadcasting privileges to radio stations. Set- tled in one city or for one sport, it bobs up immediately somewhere else.

The promoters naturally would drop all

their objections, raised on the ground that broadcasting hurts gate receipts, if they could sell the broadcasting privileges. With the ex- ception of the late Tex Rickard, who managed to auction off the rights at a couple of his

last boxing spectacles, they have been almost uniformly unsuccessful in this.

Radio fans can thank the newspapers and their connection with broadcasting for this. Fundamentally, the American public probably isn't any more sport- minded to -day than it was twenty years ago. But the ever- expand- ing sport pages have kidded it into thinking that it is, with an enormous increment of gravy to every one connected with sports, in- cluding a whole passel of "amateurs."

So more than one promoter, about to order the non -paying microphones outside, has sud- denly changed his mind when reminded of what a devil of a fix he would be in if the newspapers, which own some of those same mikes, should suddenly start charging him for all the hooey they print about his shows.

The battle front is constantly changing. No sooner did WLW convince the manage- ment of the Cincinnati Reds that broadcast- ing would be a good thing in that town, than the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Tech denied broadcasting privileges at their football games to KDKA and other stations, to judge for themselves if putting the games on the air actually hurts the gate. Every other promoter in the city naturally became microphone shy.

Paddy Harmon, arch -foe of broadcasting, is tossed out of the management of the Chi-

cago Stadium, and the next week Phil Ball, of St. Louis, goes down to the annual meeting of the big leagues and wants them to ban micro- phones from their ball parks. (Phil, by the way, sells the privilege in his.)

CFCA at Toronto has solved the difficulty in the case of several recalcitrant promoters by putting on the broadcast, but withholding the advance announcement of it. WCAU, Philadelphia, was refused broadcasting privi- leges by college football teams, turned to the professional Frankfort Yellowjackets and was given credit for increasing their attendance. The University of North Carolina refused broadcasting on its football last fall, and alumni in distant cities were sore over the fact, reports WPTF, Raleigh, N. C. KYDL, Salt Lake City, won a boxing promoter over after he had omitted the broadcast of one of his shows as an experiment. KOA, Denver, has had a hard fight to broadcast college foot- ball, yet the biggest attendance in the history of the Rocky Mountain Conference was at a

game last fall which was broadcast over the Denver station.

It might be well at this point to look into the situation where broadcasts and sports are more or less under unified control -at those colleges which maintain radio stations. Col- lege professors may be visionary fellows, but the gents who run college sports can see a

nickel as far as any one - witness the flapper - like dimensions of the hot dog for which you pay a dime or fifteen cents at the average football game. And the consensus at the col- leges seems to be that broadcasting doesn't hurt, and often helps attendance.

"The question was brought up, but the de- cision was in favor of broadcasting," writes WSUI, at the University of Iowa. "The ath- letic council decided broadcasting did not re- duce attendance," reports Bucknell's station,

WJBU. WOI, at Iowa State, has even been successful in selling football and basket -ball tickets over the air.

"It is our belief that broadcasting increases attendance," reports Walter N. Campbell, from WAPI, which is owned by three Ala- bama institutions -the State University, Ala- bama Poly and Alabama College. "I have actually heard of football fans listening to a broadcast, leaving their homes and rushing to the field to witness the remainder of the game."

Several colleges do report that they have noticed a slight decrease in attendance due to broadcasting, or that their athletic officials have doubts about the matter, but they con- tinue their broadcasts nevertheless.

But perhaps the best argument of all in fa- vor of sport broadcasting is the fact that Madison Square Garden, the biggest and best - managed sports arena in the country, now has its own station, WMSG, and broadcasts all contests held within its walls.

"The American people are too curious to see a sport event, if they live within reason- able distance, to listen to it over the radio," writes P. A. Boyd, of KDKA, Pittsburgh. "The broadcasting of sports, I know from ob- servation, has created interest in the minds of people who, until they listened to a broadcast, were not interested at all. They became ar- dent fans and attended games whenever pos- sible.

"Broadcasting sports carries the news into soldiers' hospitals, sanitariums and sick -rooms, where it takes the minds of patients off their troubles. And, again, there are thousands of people living at far -away points who never or rarely have an opportunity to attend a big sport event. The broadcasts of these events are a big thing in their lives."

41

Basket-ball campaigns are at their hottest this month. Hockey is bgpming, too, and will continue to the end of March. These two sports, with boxing, furnish the bulk of the play -by -play reports on the air this month. Space limitations compel us to refer

you to the detailed list of stations broadcasting such events in the January issue of WHAT'S ON THE AIR.

4!

Last summer, at the State Fair at Lincoln, Neb., some radio amateurs, using short -wave outfits, tried broadcasting a description of the grounds and crowds from an airplane. The station on the ground was connected to the public- address system in the grandstand. The air was quite choppy, which accounted for the experiment being much too much a suc- cess for the dignity of the aerial announcer. He became airsick and his plaintive moans for succor, caught in his neglected microphone, set some thousands of appreciative, but un- sympathetic, spectators to howling below.

Here are some more "first times" in the field of sport broadcasting. KTNT, Musca- tine, Ia., gave radio descriptions of motorboat racing last summer. And WLW put the Ohio River steamboat races on the air.

Way back in April, 1921, KDKA put on a

broadcast of the Davis Cup tennis matches between the teams of Great Britain, Austra- lia and the United States, held that year at Sewickley, Pa., at the Alleghany Country Club. That pioneer station also claims to have been the first to broadcast a ringside account of a boxing -match on Apr. 11, 1921.

Bowlers now can hear about their sport over the air. "Billy Sixty," bowling editor of the Milwaukee Journal, gives a weekly review

over WTMJ. He also gave a

ball -by -ball account last win- ter of the world's champion- ship match between Hank Marino and Charlie Dowe in that city. Evidently the Mil- waukee pin- busters aren't ex- pected to attend church very regularly, for Billy starts his review every Sunday morning at 10:30, Central Standard Time.

WHAT'S ON THE AIR has sought diligently the opinions of broad- casters and promoters on the prob- lem of sport broadcasting and gate receipts. What do you listeners, who are most concerned in the long run, think about it? Give us your actual experiences, rather than opinions. Have sport broad- casts kept you from attending the events in person, or have they, on the other hand, interested you in a sport which had no attraction for you until you heard about it on the air? Send your letters to WHAT'S ON THE AIR, Ninth and Cutter Sta., Cincinnati, O.

ore than Beauty Talk

By IDA BAILEY ALLEN President and Founder of the National

Radio Home -makers Club

The National Radio Home -makers Club meets each week -day ex- cept Saturday, from 10 A. M. to 12 noon (Eastern Standard Time), over the Columbia Broadcasting System's coast -to -coast network.

ONE supposes that a beauty broadcaster sits

down and writes her script, then gets up in a bare room to deliver it, and afterward goes back to her typewriter and the preparation of another script. But this is not the case with the beauty talks that come from the studio of Mrs. Ida Bailey Allen, founder and president of the National Radio Home -makers Club. Like the food broadcasts from her model kitchen -laboratory and the decoration talks from her interior decoration studio, Mrs. Al- len's beauty advice is given from a real bou- doir. And it is more than advice, for, while Carolyn Cornell and the other broadcasters explain through the microphone what other women can do to make themselves lovelier, Miss Lewis, the club beautitian, actually dem- onstrates the work.

Perhaps the broadcast is about the care of the feet. Then Miss Lewis drafts somebody on the staff to come in and present her feet for a pedicure. One day the beauty talk was all about facial exercises. Miss Lewis made such terrible faces to illustrate the material Miss Cornell was describing that a misunder- standing almost ensued, for she made such faces Miss Cornell could há1 dly keep . from. laughing.

But Miss Lewis explained it away. "You can't get the proper results unless you make terrible faces -just like this." She squinted her eyes, thrust out her chin and grinned widely, first up one side, then up the other side of her face. "Well," said Carolyn Cornell, "the next time we make faces over the mike, I'll make 'em, and you'll tell 'em."

As a usual thing, however, the Beauty Bou-. doir is not the scene of misunderstandings, for its restful decoration is conducive to good hu- mor and a feeling of repose. It is carpeted with soft, thick, green plush in two tones, and the same reseda and willow greens repeat

themselves in strips of marquisette wall hang- ings, which are in turn covered with orchid Indian prints. There is a low, comfortable reclining- chair, with green footstool to match, where facial treatments are given, or fingers manicured; and a low, green dressing -table, with a green, framed mirror just above, a high chest of drawers painted green, and a high stool, which Miss Lewis likes to sit on while giving manicures. The toilet articles on the little dressing -table are a warm amber crystal; in slightly deeper -tone than the deep -yellow stenciled flówers which are found on the fur- niture, or the real yellow flowers which fur- ther enhance the hominess of the room from their amber vases.

The work of the Beauty Boudoir is not con- fined to this room, nor does it only take place during the broadcasts. Almost any day of the week, in the afternoon, visiting home -makers may find Miss Lewis in the model kitchen - laboratory. But she is not helping Miss White to compile a new recipe for shortcake, or to figure out a shorter way to make that cake. No, if you should "listen in" to her conversa- tion, you would hear Miss Lewis, in the voice of the negro of her native Florida, saying:

"Where you all keep that there lemon ex- tract, Miss White? What! youse hided it away from me? What you all go doin' that fer? Don' you realize that lemon extract is bettah on de face dane`in de stummick ?"

It is just:ano-ther bleaching -cream that Miss Lewis is preparing, another one of those orig- inal conceptions which make the broadcasts from the Beauty Boudoir more than actual demonstration, and more than just another beauty talk. By the end of the afternoon Miss Lewis will have evolved another beauty secret which will eventually go into a broadcast -to help women in keeping well groomed and as beautiful as possible.

\TJ[.1T'S ON THE 1IR Page 43

W Newark (N. J.) Station, Seeks "Scoops" and Finds Them

OPERATING a broadcasting station is

analogous to getting out newspapers. And this is particularly true of WOR, from its director, Alfred J. McCosker, down to the youngest page on the staff. In fact, Mr. Mc- Cosker and several of his associate executives have held down editorial positions on metro- politan dailies.

"Scoops" is the watchword, and every po- tential means of developing them is explored. In broadcasting, a "scoop" means extraordi- nary talent or feature that will attract a

greater audience just as an exclusive piece of news means the sale of more newspapers.

All papers have reporters stationed in stra- tegic districts, so as to avoid missing anything. WOR has representatives, in places which, it thinks, hold potentially feature broadcasts, on constant lookout for feature material.

Since Mr. McCosker instituted the system of putting "spot news" broadcasts on the air -that is, events of great public interest - other stations have followed suit, but not be- fore WOR had attained a position of tremen- dous prestige.

Then followed plans for entrenching our position. These have had many ramifications. No expense is spared to "sign up" personages in the public eye. Often it is done by cable. Often it is done by wireless, if the person sought happens to be aboard ship.

True, there are many disappointments for one cause or another. Usually the reason is an exorbitant demand for money. And the rea- son for this is the Munschausenistic tales of fabulous sums paid for short broadcasts. Mark Twain's "Gross Exaggeration" would be mild compared to the claims made.

Aside from the "scoops," Mr. McCosker's idea is to present a well- balanced program with a sufficient number of interest -evoking features to make it unusual and original.

It was for that reason he established what the station calls the "directorate," composed of all the executives of the station over which he presides. The meetings are interesting.

Every potential program idea presented brings an avalanche of criticism from the col- leagues of the sponsor. Much of it isn't mer- ited, but it puts the "burden of proof" on its originator. He or she must prove it is good, or it is rejected.

The regular features of the station have jus- tified this method in the praise listeners have bestowed.

So many good ideas have been offered by the "directorate" that it spurs continuity writers to work harder on their features, for fear that they will be displaced. All the continuities are now being written by staff members.

WHAT'S ON THE AIR Page 45

rii-Ccle Out Mother What kind of a show did papa take you to,

Bobby? Bobby -It was a dandy, mamma. They had ladies

dressed in stockings up to their necks.

She -Now, what are you stopping for? He (as car comes to halt) -I've lost my bearings. She -Well, at least you are original. Most men run

out of gas.

Wife (reading) -It says here they have found a long - legged sheep in the Himalaya Mountains that can run forty miles an hour.

Her Hubby -Well, it would take a lamb like that to follow Mary nowadays.

Mrs. Tellit -Cousin Dorothy, you know, always wanted to have a little baby daughter so she could name her June.

Mrs. Askit -Yes. Did she do it? Mrs. Tellit -No. The man she married was named

Bugg, and it wouldn't do, you see.

Junkman -Any rags, paper, old iron? Man of the House (angrily) -No, my wife's away. Junkman -Any bottles?

Lectures-Can any one give the derivation of the word "auditorium "?

Listener -Yes, from AUDIO -hear and TAURUS - bull; a place where you -

Lecturer -That will do.

Dean -Don't you know you shouldn't play strip poker?

Sweet Young Thing -Oh, it's perfectly all right. It's not really gambling.

Dean -What? Sweet Young Thing -No; you see, we get our clothes

back. c;n

A lady was walking along the road when she saw some calves running into a field. "Oh, what cute little cowlets," she said.

A farmer in the next field heard her and said: "Those aren't cowlets, those are bullets."

NEW STEPS TO SLOW MUSIC

(Continued from page 7.)

quickly. This is a decided asset to one who must change her step rapidly in order to follow various partners.

NOTE: The running steps are counted, 1, 2, 3, pause. Pause for a half- second at the end of the third running step. Practice for fifteen minutes. Begin with left foot, run for-

ward three steps, 1, 2, 3, pause. Repeat for thirty minutes. Although the running steps are faster than walking steps,

they are just as long. It is best to always take long steps, whether they be fast or slow. A short step betrays a lack of confidence.

Two WALKING AND THREE RUNNING STEPS

This is a combination of slow and fast steps, or walking and running steps.

Learning the man's part, as well as her own, will do much to teach the lady to follow in the syncopated steps.

First Part. -Begin with left foot and walk forward two long, slow steps, 1, 2.

Run forward three long, quick steps, begin left foot, 1, 2, 3, pause.

NoTE: The running steps are twice as fast as the walking steps.

Second Part. -Begin with right foot and walk forward two long, slow steps, 1, 2.

Run forward three quick steps, begin right foot, 1, 2, 3, pause. That's all.

LADY'S PART

First Part. -Begin with right foot and walk backward two long, slow steps, 1, 2.

Run backward three long, quick steps, begin right foot, 1, 2, 3, pause.

Second Part. -Begin with left foot and walk backward two slow steps, 1, 2.

With left foot run backwards three quick steps, 1, 2, 3, pause.

II. SYNCOPATED LEFT TURN IN THE FOX TROT

Study the diagram. Begin at the word "Start" and follow the directions in the illustration.

Walk two steps, 1, 2. Run three steps, 1, 2, 3. Walk two steps, 1, 2. Run three steps, 1, 2, 3.

Af ter you become expert in this step, try and do it within a

radius of only two feet. In order to do this, it is necessary for the man's left foot to be almost stationary. The left foot then acts as the hub of a wheel, and the right foot as the rim.

HOW TO JUDGE PEOPLE BY THEIR DANCING

If you want to make a good impression in the ballroom, be extremely careful while dancing, because your dancing gives you away. Your ballroom expressions tell your partner and specta- tors about your thoughts, traits and habits.

Your disposition, your faults, your ambitions and even tem- perament -these are an open book to your partner in the ball- room. The close observer will be able to read your innermost secrets unless you are careful while dancing. I dare say that you can tell whether your sweetheart will be a model husband or whether he will turn out to be a "mistake."

It does not necessarily follow that the good dancer has a beau- tiful character or that the person who is hopeless, in so far as handling his feet is concerned, is a rogue. I don't mean anything like that. Indications of a person's traits are obtained, not from how well or how poorly he dances as to the . actual technique of the dance as such, but from the way he dances, from his personal expression through the dance.

Almost any man will readily admit that he can judge another by appearance. To a great extent he can. One does not have to be a physiognomist to read character by countenance. To read f aces somehow seems natural enough. Perhaps it is because we judge people by their faces every day that we become more or less adept at it. In this case we admit that the face is an index to the character, and, because non -homogeneity exists among people, all visages are unlike one another.

The same principle applies to everything a person does. His actions are different from every other person's for the reason that whatever he does is indicative of the person himself. And no two people are alike in every respect. In handwriting is this fact especially significant. Although there are but twenty -six letters in the English alphabet, no two handwritings are exactly alike. Graphologists tell us that the reason for this dissimilarity is due to the fact that the character of the person is expressed in his handwriting.

In dancing the range of action is unlimited, and therefore permits of a wide range for the display of inhèrent characteris- tics. But even when the dancers are limited to but one step, it has been found that of one hundred people no two will dance it precisely alike. Although there is but one waltz -and very little latitude is permitted in its execution -out of the millions of peo- ple who dance it, no two people have yet been found who dance it alike. It is the individual way in which the action is performed which gives rise to diversity.

The temperament of the individual is especially noticeable in dancing. The phlegmatic person who is very calm, pleasant and good- natured will show it in his dancing by slow, quiet and easy- going movements. Though he may be dancing with all his might, to all outward appearances he will move very calmly. On the other hand, the nervous temperament of the person who is very excitable and is easily provoked to anger is characterized by quick, energetic movements. The dancer in this instance will often get ahead of the music and become irritable when the rhythm is slow. Both types may or may not be good dancers. Again I repeat that the quality of the person's dancing does not enter in the judgment of character by dancing.

It is often an easy matter to judge of a man's character by the way he takes care of his partner. The man who treats the lady as though she were a China doll, holds her gently and is

careful to see that she does not collide with every pillar in the room, is more than often a man of fine sensibility.

Partners are often stern critics. They are likely to give a

closer judgment than spectators. Yet spectators are to be con- sidered. Dancing in a ballroom is more than a partnership mat - ter-it is a social expression and is to be judged from all points affecting the pleasure of the occasion, optically and otherwise. Its character revelations correspond to the range of this expres- sion.
