Three times since it was organized WFBM has moved its offices to provide needed space for improves nients. Station officials have ane nounced a fourth change of address, This move will be to the building formerly occupied by the Indianapolis Light and Power Co. 48 Monument Circle, where the station will occupy all of the fourth and part of the fifth floors. Station =. officials expect to be established in the new quarters by Jan. 1. The new location has room for three large studios, reception room, audition rooms and numerous offices. Space on the fifth floor is to house the studio’s music library. A private entrance and elevator will make the studios accessible from the ; Circle. Approximately $20,000 is to Er LAV : be spent for ‘ redecorating and x ¢ ie i sound proofing the rooms, officials 5 2 = =

Now that the election’s last echoes | have died away, a word about cam=paign radio costs will not be amiss. The few weeks of aired oratory cost major parties $1,000,000 (unof=ficial estimate) and it is agreed no one knows their effect on the outcome. The first volley of election radio speeches cost the parties something over $100,000. Democrats and Republicans each spent about $30,000, and there were the Jeffersonian Democrats, Socialists and Communists, William Lemke and the Probitionists’ candidate were the only presidential nominees absent from the networks the closing night. ” » 2

He also writes his own script, produces his own sound effects and plays his theme song. Mr. Scribner's boyhood ambition was realized when he joined a circus and became a star . tight wire performer. Then radio came along and in it he saw possi= bilities. His first broadcast was a blackface skit. 2 During his boyhood in the South (he was born in Virginia) Jimmy observed ‘Negroes employed on his father’s farm, how the young fellows courted the “gals” and how “papa” was henpecked by “mama.” Those observations today form the background for the Johnson Family in the mythical village of “Chica= zola.” Many of Mr. Scribner's e¢hiars. acters are patterned after persons he once’ knew..w © ur : > nn ® Tonight, for the second time within the past year, Radio Theater
