Practically Every Station to Carry President's Fireside Chat at 9:30: Mrs. Roosevelt Will Return to NBC

FAMILIAR VOICE ON AIRWAYS

Women's Congress

Speeches to Be Broadcast by WGN.

By RALPH NORMAN

President Roosevelt's second na-tion-wide radio address within a week is to be broadcast by the combined CBS, Mutual and NBC networks at 9:30 o'clock tonight. Almost every station will be linked into one of the three chains for the half-hour period, NBC's shortwave facilities also will be used. Tonight's Fireside Chat will be the President's first since Sept. 6, 1936, when he reviewed the drought situation. For his Democratic Victory Dinner speech last Thursday night, the President had the facilities of CBS, Mutual and NBC-Blue. At the same hour Bing Crosby carried on from Hollywood on NBC's Red chain, It would be interesting to know what portion of his customary listening audience Mr. Crosby lost because of the Presidential speech opposite

However, these trees do not have long tap roots, and, during the rainy geason, are not so difficult to uproot. * %®

This will decrease ambition because it is all nonsense. Your heredity is your inborn equipment somewhat like the engine of an automobile. No oil or gas will raise the inherent power and speed. But the power and speed you develop depends largely on placing yourself under training so that these powers will manifest themselves. A balanced view of heredity and environment is the wisest.

Doubtless you heard Joseph Schmidt, the Rumanian (not German) tenor, with Erno Rapee Sunday night, noted his flair for things operatic, and perhaps wondered why

he did not come to this country with a string of appearances in

his credit. Well, United Press offers a bit of information that explains his absence from the boards. Mr. Schmidt stands 4 feet 11 inches high. Imagine having to look up to Lily Pons —physically. ; It seems rather ironical that a man should be given a tenor of quite heroic proportions and a physique that would permit him only a few comedy roles in opera. Mr. Schmidt is middle-aged, and did not begin his operatic training until he was 24. He has been popular with European radio listeners, particularly in Vienna, and already is said to be in line for a broadcasting contract in this country.

It has nothing to do with the President’s political speeches, but Mrs. Roosevelt is returning to NBC about the middle of April for a series of weekly talks. She is scheduled for 13 weeks. Her compensation is to be paid directly to the American Friends’ Service Committee, Philadelphia, in whose work Mrs. Roosevelt long has been interested. Her first network series was broadcast during the 1932-33 season.

” Women listeners will be interested in broadcasts tomorrow and Thursday from the fourth annual Women's Congress in Chicago. The first broadcast, on Mutual-WGN at noon tomorrow, is to include a talk from London by Miss Ishbel Macdonald, daughter of the former Prime Minister. Addresses by Homer Martin, United Automobile Workers’ president; ex-Governor Kohler of Wisconsin, and William Green, American Federation of Labor president, will be heard on Mutual-WGN beginning at 8:45 p. m. tomorrow. Sir Josiah Stamp, British economist; Dr. Glenn Frank, former University of Wisconsin president; Senator Vandenberg of Michigan and Norman Thomas, Socialist leader, are to speak Thursday, their talks to ke carried by Mutual-WGN.

n To that growing list of Indianapolis listeners who have won wrist watches for clever questions submitted to Parks Johnson and Wally Butterworth, NBC's “Questioners,” add Mrs. Kenneth Greeson, 2911 Brookside Ave. The “Vox Poppers,” which are heard at 8 o'clock on Tuesday evenings over NBC-WIRE, have the one “audience participation” program which retains its sparkle week after week. Messrs. Butterworth and Johnson, wisely allow their microphone visitors no time for long speect.es about troubles or experiences. Their questions are clever and “catchy,” and the listener has no trouble imagining himself at the microphone stumbling over some simple but puzzling interrogation. Recent addition of West Coast NBC stations to the “Vox Poppers’ ” outlets is evidence the program is growing in popularity. Sidewalk interviews long have been featured by local stations, and WIRE’s “Reporter” is one of the station’s oldest programs. It originated more than four years ago, and for more than three years has been conducted by Morris Hicks. John Holtman conducts WFBM's “Downtown Chatter” program at 4:30 p. m. each Thursday, interviewing passersby on W. Washington St. and Bob Elson, WGN’s “Man on the Street,” conducts daily interviews on Chicago's State St. They may be heard at 11:30 a. m.

uw ” EJ Robert W. Horton, a Times special writer in Washington, will open a series of reports on the hearings before Senate Judiciary Committee relative to the President’s Supreme Court proposal on CBS at 12:15 p. m. tomorrow. It is to be heard Monday through Friday until the committee concludes its investigation. Scheduled to begin today, it was postponed when the committee hearing was delayed.

There's a story abcut Bob Ripley and his dramatization of a grave robbery on a recent NBC broadcast. The final scene called for crowd noises, and a record of crowd noises was dug out of the files. All went well until ome voice was heard above the general din: “Yea, a touchdown!” The recording had been made at a Notre Dame-Army football game.
