BEHIND THE MIKE a a a a a a Tickets for Major Bowes' Amateur Hour Broadcasts Difficult to Procure.

BY RALPH NORMAN There came an anxious voice on the telephone to The Times Amusements department. “How." it asked, “can I get tickets for Major Bowes* amateur hour next Sunday?" Heads together, the men of the amusements department promptly arrived at several conclusions. Probably the best suggestion to the "voice" was that he ring up his friend in New York who is a director of NBC, then talk him out of "comps." That the “voice” had no such friend complicated matters. Then see a scalper and pay from $1 to

$5, depending upon how easy you look, for a ticket, was proposed next. When the "voice" groaned at this, other practical suggestions followed. "Well, then, why not be an amateur and get on the program that way? Or impersonate Major Bowes? Or with less effort, perhaps, just impersonate the "gong.” But the telephone clicked, and we heard the "voice" no more. So, if the Major or the gong have a Hoosier dialect next Sunday evening, you’ll know that one Indianapolis man has gained admittance to the amateur hour. a a a The ticket business is no joking matter to the major networks. Popularity of radio personalities, and the comparatively small seating capacity of studios make impossible accommodation of all persons wishing to see as well as hear broadcasts.

Major Bowes

All tickets for Jack Benny's New York programs have been gone for weeks, although the comedian was back East for his first broadcast only last night. Eddie Cantor gets four tickets for each of his three Sunday programs, the dress rehearsal which is public, the six o clock broadcast,

and the repeat broadcast for the West. But, he complains, his five daughters can't all r ome to the show together. a a a ~ In pursuit of Toughy Hogan, son of Pine Ridge’s public enemy No. 1, who disappeared on last Tuesday's broadcast, Lum and Abner will arrive in New York this afternoon, and are to make their 6:30 broadcast tonight from there, NBC-WJZ (WLW). Like Grade Allen’s search for her missing brother, the Pine Ridge pair’s hunt for Toughy is bringing letters from various sections of the country, and Toughy has been reported "seen” in such widely separated places as Aurora. Ind.; Jonesboro, Ark., and Port Orange, Fla. Lum and Abner are in New \ork again for the first time since 1933. a a a Douglas Fairbanks Jr., who returned only recently from Eng-

land, is to be costarred with Muriel Kirkland, stage and screen actress, in the Radio Theater production tonight of "The Bride the Sun Shines On.’’ Miss Kirkland w t s featured oi Broadway in "Strictly Di shonorable.” and has appeared in several movies. CBS (WFBM) ■ will have the

Dickinson of lowa is to speak from CBS’s studios in Washington at 9.30 tonight on "The Electors' Choice.” WFBM is not to carry the address. a a a United Mine Workers of America recently voted approval of a radio campaign to familiarize the nation with the views of its leader. Miner John Lewis. a a a Apropos of comment in this column on the new type of radio program promised by Sigmund Romberg on future Tuesday evenings are the following reflections on current broadcasting ideas. Write this OLD RADIO EDITOR: . “During the last two weeks I have been listening earnestly to the popular orchestras featured by many commercial programs. That is, I have been trying to hear them. But so many trick singers, so many tap dancers, so many comics and hillbillies and combblowers have been introduced that the orchestra music is all but lost. “This is the gingerbread era in radio. I realize. A sponsor feels that to attract attention he must spot, his program with a vast variety of novelties. A half hour is not a half hour unless at least two or three of the week's batch of celebrities are given their chance to perform. It’s no longer a privilege to broadcast. A celebrity expects it, his due, just as he expects at 5 p. m. his sherry and bitters. “Meanwhile the orchestra leader sits and waits, ready to conduct his outfit, if there only were time. Take the case of Paul

Whiteman. Measured by any standard on Radio Row, Mr. Whiteman is the greatest figure in the interpretation of modern music. "And yet, listen to his program. At times they have been so heavy with special singers and gyest performers that one hear his orchestra as such, only for fleeting moments. This disturbs me. For there are those among us who look upon his early programs, his concerts at the Biltmore as the most turbulent delights in broadcasting. And we’d like to hear Whiteman again—his orchestra, the type of concert that made him Whiteman. ana Joe Louis’ favorite band is Jimmy Lunceford. The “Brown Bvnber” once wanted to be a trumpet player in an orchestra. . . . .Ben Bernie refuses to bother with order or precise timing on his broadcasts, and keeps NBC officials in a dither. . . .‘‘Old Kitchen Clock," Fibber McGee's prizewinning song, is to be played on his broadcast at 7 tonight, NBCWJZ (WIRE). .. . Bob Burns, popular Arkansas comedian, now heard each Thusrday with Bing Crosby, finds his long woolen underwear superfluous in California's warm sunshine. . . Clark Dennis, NBC tenor, is one popular song singer who never has sung “The Music Goes ’Round and Around” .. . Phil Duey, whose athletic physique is envied by his friends, furnishes them with copies of his diet. a a a The part rural libraries play in. farm communities is to be discussed by Carl H.

Music BY JAMES THRASHER FOR the first time this season Nelson Eddy is to broadcast tonight from Radio City. Work on the screen operetta, “Rose* Marie,” which opens at Loew’s Friday, and a concert tour, which is to bring him to Indianapolis on March 22, have kept the popular baritone away from New York for the past year. Tonight’s NBC (WIRE) program at 7:30 is to present Mr. Eddy in ‘‘Valentine's Farewell” from “Faust,” Massenets "Elegie, and compositions by Kriesler and Strickland. With him is to be Margaret Speaks, soprano and assisting artist, who has established an amazing trans-continental “commuting” record by weekly plane trips between New York and California to broadcast with Eddy and Richard Crooks. nan "Sigmund Romberg Week.” which began yesterday, was planned by a committee of noted musicians headed by Dr. Frank Black, for the purpose of giving recognition to the composer’s contribution to music “before he was dead.” Tonight the ‘‘Contented Hour” program carries on the observance by presenting one of Romberg's best known and best loved works, “Will You Remember,” from "Maytime.” a a a Grace Moore, who has sung Mimi in Puccini’s "La Boheme” at the Metropolitan, and who included a part of the first act in her latest movie, is to offer one of the opera’s arias, “Addio, Senza Rancore,” on her NBC-WEAF broadcast at 8:30 tonight through WIRE. a a a “TTWO SKETCHES.” by Eugene Goossens, conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, are to be played by the Kraeuter String Quartet on the NBC Music Guild program at 12:45 tomorrow afternoon on the WEAF (WIRE) network. Composition was Mr. Goossens’ first love, and is a career that he still pursues despite his orchestral duties. a a a Georges Barrere, for many years solo flautist with the New York Symphony Orchestra, is to direct his woodwind octet on the NBC-WJZ (WIRE) hookup tomorrow afternoon at 3:30. The program will include Haydn’s “Divertimento in E Flat,” the same composer’s "St. Anthony” Chorale, (used by Brahms as the theme for his Variations for orchestra) and the famous Beethoven Octet for Woodwinds.
