Fishing The Air BY G. SHUBERT FRYE All references are Central Standard Time

According to & number of letters received from irate fans, there are a lot of radio listeners who are dissatisfied wiv.h a so-called “monopoly of the air” by the national chain systems. Most of tne writers are of the opinion that the national chains are allowed unwarranted privileges, to the disadvantage of independent stations. One letter denounces the practice of using the air as an advertising medium for firms supplying programs over chain systems. Another asserts that the Federal radio commission “ha§ done more harm than good.” And another writer goes so far as to call the National Broadcasting Company “the most powerful trust ever known.” These writers are entitled to their opinions,* but their chief trouble is that they, in nearly every case, have given no reason for their assertions and charges. Their letters have been in the main destructive without constructive opinion. Fishing the Air would very much like to hear from these and other fans interested in the question, with some good constructive thought backed with logical reason. Do you favor independent stations to chain systems? Why? Is the Federal radio commission, in your opinion, working against the interests of the radio public? Send in your letter. A tabloid version of Beethoven’s ‘Fidelio” will be sent over the ether for the second time tonight at 8:30 by the N. B. C. Red network from WEAF, New York, key station. The previous broadcasting of the opera was on March 14, in recognition of the Beethoven Centennial.' “Fidelio” is a grand opera in two acts and was first produced in 1805 in Vienna. It was given under the name of “Fidelio” for the first time on May 5, 1860, in Paris. The soloists who will assume roles in this production are Frances Sebel, soprano; Adele Parkhurt, soprano; Justin Laurie, tenor; Judson House, tenor; Carl Rollins, baritone, and Hans Kramer, basso. The successful contestants for the Seventh district audition of the Atwater Kent radio contest will be heard as soloists during the Baldwin Hou" of Music at 8, broadcast by WFBM, Indianapolis, on the

station’s new wave length, 1,090 kilocycles and 275 meters. These young artists will be heard over WKBF, Indianapolis, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings in competition with other district winners of the State. Miss Ocie Higgins, winner among women’s voices, is a pupil of Glenn O. Friermood, and Joseph Perrine, winner in the men’s group, is a pupil of Fred .Newell Morris.
