JACK. HYLTON SIGNED BY CITY SPONSOR
Orchestra Leaps to Radio Fame in American Broadcasts After Extended European Appearance Popular Musicians to Replace Countess Olga Albani on Indianapolis Manufacturer’s Program April 5; on WFBM Tomorrow Night at 9:00BY RALPH NORMAN JACK HYLTON rapidly rose to fame in Europe, but in this country he has outstripped even American standards for getting places in a hurry. On this side of the Atlantic barely six months, his Continental Revue is a widely-talked-of radio feature. Although heard only in the Middle West on a partial CBS chain (WFBM at 9:30 tomorrow night), he has attracted enough attention to get anew booking beginning April 5 on NBC-WJZ for an Indianapolis manufacturer. Real Silk Hosier Mills, Inc., replacing a two-year-old popular program which stars Countess Olga Albani.
In Europe, the Hylton band was heard in London's Piccadilly hotel for three years, at its Alhambra theater during a 33-week engagement. At the Paris Opera House his performance of a composition written especially for him marked the only appearance in history of a popular musical conductor in that center of classical music. Because of this appearance, the President of France made him a chevalier of the Legion of Honor; before royal families of England, Belgium, Sweden, Italy, Spain and Austria he gave command performances. At the age of seven he began singing, within 10 years was directing a traveling opera company’s orchestra. When 18, he became a pianist in a London dance band, four weeks later was directing it. Heard on the Continental Revue will be Alic Templeton, blind pianist-composer, and Pat O'Malley, Irish tenor and dialect artist, both from England, both important in the Hylton show. Most of his orchestra mefnbers ire American, however, trained in the Hylton style of interpretation. The Hylton band is best when it takes its good, rowdy, swing tunes seriously. Its lively English comedy songs can’t be heard on other programs. tt a tt Because of a Japanese revolt, which has potential international ramifications, a talk at 9:30 tonight, NBC-WJZ, by Himsi-Saito, Japanese ambassador to the United States, has considerable political significance. On the same program is to be heard Chester 11. Rowell, editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, authority on Pacific political programs. “International Diplomacy” is to be discussed at the University of Chicago’s Round Table at 11:30 Sunday morning, NBC-WEAF (WIRE), and at 11:45 Vernon Bartlett, diplomatic correspondent of the London News-Chronicle is to be heard on CBS (WFBM) discussing international news. tt tt tt Twirling the dial for a few highlights—Ziegfeld Folleis of the Air opened last week without Fannie Brice, had to be rewritten when the star became ill.

A good example of what can happen, t}ie ill feeling and worry it can cause, when a comedian or conductor fails to time his program correctly, arose when a popular entertainer, forced to use a substitute program, ran over 45 seconds. In these 45 seconds, Herbert Hoover was introduced from the West coast. But when the net-

National Indoor Champ Builder for Five Years
John S. Stokes Jr. Attended First Meet in 1933. Junior Aviators, meet a national champion! He's John S. Stokes of Spring Valley Farm, Huntington Valley, Pa. John has been building models ever since he was 5 years old which means five years ago. .. The first national meet he attended was the 1933 contest in New York, but he didn’t make the record grade that time. However, he did win the local Philadelphia championship in 1933 and 1934, but could not compete this year because he went away to school. John’s real claim to fame came at the national model meet at St.' Louis last summer, when he established two new records—the first with a time of 20 minutes and 53 seconds with his hand-launched stick model and the second wtih a time of 15 minutes and 5 seconds with a fuselage model. “I think model building is a good thing for you because you meet many nice fellows who make good friends,” John writes. “I am also glad that business men and Government officials are beginning to realize that model building is serious, difficult and scientific, and not just playing with and making toys. Models should be considered anything but toys or playthings. “There are only five things of which indoor models consist. These are balsa wood, glue, microfilm (sometimes tissue paper), rubber particularly in commercial and civilian. types. Production of domestic and civil aircraft gained about 25 per cent. “Private flying activities increased as measured by the number of pilots and student licenses issued, the student permit total now being 25,000. Aviation schools for both pilots and mechanics report waiting lists. “The year 1936 should be the beginning of a great expansion in every phase of aviation, probably greater than even those in the industry now vision.”

ADVANCES OF 1935 PACE AIR INDUSTRY Airlines Experience Biggest Year in History. Advance in civil aeronautics during the past 12 months stamp 1935 as the most important year thus far in the development of flying as an industry and a transportation system, in the opinion of Eugene L. Vidal, director of air commerce, Dspartment of Commerce. “The score or more of air line companies carrying passengers, mail and express in the United States, and over routes to Canada and Latin American experienced the biggest year in their history,” Mr. Vidal said. “The 860,000 passengers carried represented an increase of about 290,000, or 51 per cent over 1933, the best previous year. Express increased over 1934, and air mail almost doubled. Miles flown by the are lines were 60,000,000, the highest total in air line history. “The figures for 1935 -are estimates, subject to slight revision when detailed compilations have been made for November and December. “Miscellaneous flying operations started upward in 1933 and 1934, and in 1935 these operators continued'to gain ground, carrying about 1.625,000 passengers, and flying some 80,000,000 miles. “Aircraft manufacturers likewise increased their production in 1935.” used on modern air liners, measures horsepower by gauging the pressure of the gas mixture in the engine’s manifold. Student flyers should not practice forced landings until they have acquired the knack of handling the plane in gliding turns and in landings. Cross-wind landings require careful use of controls until the plane stops rolling. The tachometer shows the pilot the exact number of revolutions a minute that his engine is making. A transport pilot may not carry persons for hire in licensed aircraft other than of the types and classes specified in his license.
BETTER LIGHT • BETTER SIGHT HERE’S A DOUBLE SAFEGUARD FOR THE EYES OF YbUR FAMILY Young eyes... old eyes...middle aged eyes... all are working many hours a day reading,studying, sewing, playing, working. Isn’t it wise to take precautions against eyestrain that may impair vision? Here is twofold protection: 1. Have your eyes examined regularly ! It is estimated that we are using our eyes for severe seeing tasks about more than was common a generation ago... and many times more than a century ago. Have you bad your eyes examined recently to see how they are meeting this increased strain? 2 . Make sure your lighting is right! The pupil of the eye becomes smaller with age... consequently there is greater need for more light as birthdays pile up. Young eyes need plenty of good light in order to develop normally. Most homes provide lesa light than is needed for seeing without eyestrain. We trill be glad to send a lighting advisor to check your lighting, icithout charge; or to cooperate uith your eyesight specialist when he prescribes light along with lenses.

Plane Talk
BRITISH government tests for inauguration of a North Atlantic air service will be launched in the summer of 1936 with anew type of machine called a “mail composite” plane, it is predicted by well-informed sources here. Regular service may be expected within three years. This may seem a long time, but it is the most optimistic prediction ventured by those in position tc know the status of negotiations now under way between the government and Imperial Airways. tt tt tt Considerable money already has been spent in developing tfye mail composite plane. Despite /secrecy which surrounds this work, a few details regarding the machine have been confirmed by reliable sources. It is a small two-engined machine, designed for heavy wing loading. Unable to take off on its own power, this plane is to be loaded on a large machine and “dumped’ in the air at an adequate altitude. Thus is expected to be solved the great problem which has thus far made a trans-Atlantic service impossible—the problem of balancing costs with a “pay load.” ■ft- "TT - iPM IT • v pgay prWf f T > !k f fa Yß The new A & O Wafers gave him relief —after harsh purgatives tailed, though used in larger and larger doses.
