Broadcasters Plan Elaborate Pick-Up System at Cleveland; ~~ Bay to Feature Transcriptions

Political Experts to Man Microphones During Sessions.

BY RALPH NORMAN With the winter program season, the Indianapolis race and other hisnlignis of sports and the Queen ‘Ss maiden voyage behind them, broadcasters now will turn thoughts ~ to summer's most important events, ~ the Republican and Democratic na- : al conventions.

++ Already extensive plans have been announced by the networks for airing the most comprehensive picture of the sessions ever to be broadcast, and large staffs of announcers _ and commentators are being as- . sembled to cover the affair. A CBS announcement says 68 “microphones and more than saven miles of wire will be used at the FP:- * publican convention, beginning June ‘9, the most ever utilized at any one ~ event. NBC will use 10 microphones suspended from thé ceiling to pick ~ up delegates’ speeches and the new micro-wave transmitters will be used by announcers as they walk among delegates for interviews. They also will be used in hotel lobbies, streets and wherever people gather. The NBC staff at both conventions is to include Graham McNamee and Charles Lyons, veteran announcers, Dorothy Thompson; Walter Lippmann and William Hard, political analysts and commentators. ¥or CBS listeners, Announcer Bob Trout is to be at the microphones ‘much of the time, assisted by H. V. Kaltenborn, Mabelle Jennings and Pdul Mallon, political experts. Additional names are to be added to ‘both staffs before the first convention broadcast June 9 from Cleveland. ® 8 »

It is radio, not movies, which will bring together for the first time two of Hollywood's biggest names, Clark Gable and Marlene Dietrich.’ The two cinema players are to co-star in Radio Theater's first production from the west coast which is to be aired by CBS (WFBM) at 7 tonight. Producer Cecile B. DeMille has

chosen for the Gable-Dietrich ve-

hicle a radio version of the movie, “Morrocco,” which he calls “The Legionnaire and the Lady.”

The death of Frank Fay’s father in Brentwood Heights, Cal.,, may de- - lay the comedian’s return to New York, which had been scheduled for his program Friday night. The elder Fay guided his son’s career since Frank went on the stage many years ago, and he particularly was proud of his son’s radio success.

To the staffs of WIRE and WFBM our congratulations for excellent Speedway race broadcasts which made the event interesting, we feel sure, to many who were not at the track Saturday. Never before have broadcasters been permitted to show their ability as they were Saturday. The Speedway management will be repaid for its cour_tesy by increased public interest in the speed classic.

Five women, outstanding in five different fields, and an eminent ‘ physician who will remain anonymous, are to participate in a new CBS (WFBM) daily program in- . augurgted at 10 this morning.

The speakers are to inelude Alice Hugh, fashion editor, - Tuesday; Mrs. Cora Field, housewife, Wednesday; the physician, Thursday; the Grand Duchess Marie, Friday; Ethel Cotton, au“thority on conversation, Saturday, ‘and Lilian Lauferty, beauty expert,

Version of Bach Number to Be Highlight: of Columbia Concert.

Transcriptions will be the order of the day when Victor Bay and his Columbia Chamber Orchestra present their weekly broadcast at 2:30 tomorrow, through WFBM and the CBS chain. One of the selections, in fact, is a “double transcription”—an aria by Max Reger after Bach's choral prelude for organ, “O Mensch, Bewein Dein Suende Gross.” The prelude, of course, is based upon one of the old chorals of the Lutheran church, and has become familiar in the very effective arrangement for string orchestra by Leopold Stokowski as well as in its original form. Many who are acquainted with the exquisite and spiritual beauty of Bach’s elaboration of the chorale may doubt the wisdom of further treatment of the subject. At any rate, it should be interesting for those to whom the Reger version is new. Other items on the program are to be four early Italian dances, a corrente, gavotte, minuetto ~and giga, transcribed for orchestra by Julius Mattfield, and Arensky’s variations on ‘the simple, folk-like Tschaikowsky “Legend.” >

» ” ” With tonight's program, Nelson Eddy leaves the air for the summer, and a well-earned rest after a busy season of broadcasts, picture making, concerts and flights from

admiring young ladies. His selections tonight, heard at 6:30 over WIRE and the NBC Red network, are of the type described as “summer fare.” Included are “Old Faithful,” Guion’s “Home on the Range” (with chorus), Giordani’s “Caro Mio Ben” and Dix’s “The Trumpeter.” Margaret Speaks, muchtraveled soprano, is to sing Arditi’s “Il Bacio.” (By J.T)
