When program producers talk® about radio's mass audience, Mr. Chapman gets a little out of patience. He points out that radio singers are performing for small groups in homes, for the most part, and should conduct themselves accordingly. “We intend to make our programs just about what any crowd might sing around the piano.

Radio Anniversary This Evening.

By RALPH NORMAN

American listeners are tomed to radio's many | broadcasts” originating in this country, South America, Europe and other parts of the world, and accept | them as an essential part of every major occurrence of national or international importance. | Broadcasting a coronation of an English King, though, has yet to be undertaken by the networks, which will “cover” King George VI's cereniony May 12. NBC and CBS al- | ready have announced their sched- | ules, each promising five to six-hour | programs originating in London. | Announcers already have been | named, technical stafls are at work | in London and official approval for [the programs has been secured, so [ that on May 12—atmospheric conditions permitting—Americans may hear word pictures of the corona-

” ” A special sports program on the NBC-Blue network at 10:05 o'clock tonight will originate at the Joe Louis-Natie Brown fight in Kansas City. Clem McCarthy and Hal Totten, NBC's veteran sports announcers, will be at the microphones. n ” ” Another special event—a very special one to a couple of radio comedians—will be observed tonight | when George Burns and Gracie | Allen mark their fifth anniversary on the networks without interruption. That, of course, does not | count interruptions by Gracie. WFBM will carry the program at 7:30 o'clock. Among guests of honor tonight will be a network executive who five years ago saw the Burns and Allen act at a Broadway theater. At that time he declared they had a good act. but it would never do for radio. Not enough material: Their act lasted about 13 nfinutes. For the gentleman's edification, {and for yours and mine as well, | records reveal the comics have | broadcast exch week for five years, 20 minutes of material in | each broadcast. Their 13-minute routine has stretched to about 5700 | minutes—and on radio, you know, an act never is Lepestad. ” n A note to women rorders: That famous restaurateur, George Rec- | tor, opens a new CBS Tuesday~ | Wednesdy-Thursday series this week. He will talk about old days at Rector’s when its fame was world wide, and he promises to give many recipes which were responsible for its suecess. The program will be on CBS at 12:39 p. m. ” " ” A network program beginning next week, for the first time in ra- | dio history, will originate in the | home of its sponsor. The program will be aired from [a suburban Pittsburgh residence, and will be carried over 14 NBC- | Red network stations, opening at 6:45 o'clock Friday, Feb. 26. It will | consist chiefly of organ and vccal | solos by Louis Miller and guest stars. | The last program to originate in a | home, you may recall, faded from | the air when listeners seem ur winter- | ested in attending “Parties at Pick=fair.” They emanated from Mary | Pickford’s California mansion. | " n 1-3 This evening's discussions of the President’s proposed judiciary reforms: Senator Byrnes (D. S. C.) at 6:30 o'clock on the NBC-Red network, and Rep. Byron B. Harlan (D. 0.) at 5:30 o'clock on CBS. Neither speech is scheduled loeally,
