an out-and-out action picture like “The Plainsman” translates itself into radio entertainment when it is broadcast on the Radio Theater program at 7 o'clock tonight on| WFBM. Cecil B. DeMille, who runs the air show and also directed the picture, will have Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur to repeat their original roles in “The Plainsman.”: The two stars made their last Radio Theater appearance in. “Mr. Deeds (Goes to Town,” a far cry from the present vehicle. Columnist Sidney Skolsky is to be interviewed between acts. :

” 2 3 Radio drama, while we're on the. subject, is ‘the most neglected

{ branch of the new art. So its

rather big news when CBS announces that during July and August it: will present a series |of eight Shakespeare plays. This looks like

invisible drama’s most ambitious

venture, and again you may score one for public taste. Even the noblest experimenters are not! going to aste eight valuable 'hofirs on a ight-time schedule if no one is ing to listen. ewester Morgan, young earean director formerly land’s Oxford Theater, is to direct the series. And a large; symphony orchestra is to provide musical backgrounds. © Twentyfive recognized artists are promised for the principal roles, with more than 100 supporting players. The plays to be presented are “Hamlet,” “Macbeth,” “King Lear,” “Twelfth Night,” “As You Like If,” “The Taming of the Shrew,” “Henry IV” and “Much Ado About Nothing.” i ” ® "

This listener, though fairly | enthusiastic over the coming series, thinks that radio’s dramatic future lies in plays written especially for the air. - A purely theatrical ' approach is no more successful on the air than in motion pictures. And there are serious writers at work on this very thing. Making a living by writing sentimental continuity for those daylight script serials, they are. spending thoughtful | leisure hours on reconciling the dramatic’ muse to the microphone. Two men, though not penny-a-line script ‘writers, may. have something new for listeners tonight. One is Carl Carmer, author of “Stars Fell on Alabama,? and the other is Wells Hively, composer-dramatist-pianist, who has be called the “Noel Coward of Mr. Carmer is inaugurating a weekly series on the CBS network at 8:30 o'clock called “Neck of the Woods.” Like his books, e series will present Americana of guaranteed authenticity. week Mr. Carmer is to take a different section of the country and present “its finest fantasies and legends,” according to the program’s . producer. Narrative will besemphasized by dramatizations when advisable, it is said. -An original dramatization of with incidental musie, is to be Mr. Hively's contribution. The program is booked

.{ for 6 o'clock on the NBC-Blue net- - |l.work.

The author-composer already has given radio several other original works of this nature, based on famous stories or characters.

| They rdnge all the way from “The

Outcasts of Poker Flat” to “The

Holy Grail.” ‘And that will wind up the day's

talk about drama. : 2 2 2 ; Turning an unsympathetic back on anguished film moguls, Gracie Allen today comes out with the definite announcement that she will not play Scarlett O'Hara in “Gone With the Wind.” “Though Scarlett is a colorful role, I don’t think it: would match my little blue hat,” says Miss Allen by way of explanation. : i Another deterring factor is realization that | her favorite, Ray Noble, has an accent that fits him for an English butler rather than a Rhett Butler. Even though, as she says, “accents make the heart grow fonder,” she knows that. Ray just wouldn't do, “So I'll groan with the wind on: the airwaves. Let who will be gone with the wind on the screen,” she

concludes.
