It isn't Hollywood for Miss Moore, Miss Swarthout and Mr, Tibbett caught on as well with cinema fans as Miss Pons and Mr. Martini. Variety Demanded Probably changing tastes and mechanics in radio are responsible. Variety, as we have remarked be~ fore, seems to be the present-day watchword. You will notice that the' thinning ranks of opera stars don't hold .the stage alone. Miss Jepson usually has two solos in an hour show. Miss Pons and Mr. Martini will share the spotlight with the popular Kostelanetz orchestra. Mr. Crooks co-stars with Margaret _ Speaks. Symphony orchestra pickups are not the inadequate things they were a few years ago, and constant exposure to good orchestral music, well reproduced, has wooed away a vast number of the musical laiety from the songsters.

Mr. Bown has reached the conclusion \that children are the most critical audience in the radio business. All broadcasts designed for children are either “swell” or

“punk” to their listeners, he de- |

clared.
