And for all these I have never had a birthday since and never shall. n s CERTAINLY it 0. No man can completely escape his environment. Rich people rarely become “communists, few bankers are anxious to reform the banking system and employers are not as vitally interested in reforming the conditions of labor as are the employees. Nearly all reforms come from people who are not the beneficiaries’ of the old system and its methods. This is true in education, politics, economics and social life. It is the people who have to sit in

struments of torture and wish to reform them, not the manufacturers and designers, So with all of life.

NEXT—Can young people prepare themselves today for new and unknown jobs that science is sure to create tomorrow?

Good Radio Music

By JAMES THRASHER

This is going to be about nlovies, but it’s also about microphones, so there may be some excuse for putting the story here. More specifically, it has to do with Leopold Stokowski, late of Phila-

delphia and currently a member of the Hollywood - colony.

You will

remember that when Mr. Stokowski resigned from ‘the conductorship of the Philadelphia Orchestra to devote. himself to “acoustical research,”

everyone peered closely to see if the «

dynamic maestro had his tongue in his cheek. ‘Well, it ‘seems that he didn’t. He is working at present on a picture called “100 Men and a Girl” and, according to John Dunlap of the United Press Hollywood bureau, causing a few changes in sound engineering.

Uses 15 Microphones

Most singers and orchestras on Hollywood sound stages get along with one or two microphones, but Mr. Stokowski uses 15 with his or-

chestra. He says that this number, with each picking up a separate tone quality, will give a perspective, roundness and depth to music never heard before.

“We are just beginning to learn to use the microphone in recording music,” Mr. Stokowski told Mr. Dunlap. “Just as the microscope or the telescope extends the power of the eye and the lever is an extension of the powers of the arm so is the microphone an extension of the powers of the human ear.

May Get Last Laugh

“It is such a new instrument that we must learn its capabilities just as a beginner must learn the capacities of a violin. It will be years before our ablest engineers and sound recorders begin to tap the infinite possibilities of the microphone and sound reproducing apparatus in the reproduction and recording of music.”

Btckowski may¥end up by hav-

tigethet. in piétures.

ing the laugh on the sound engineers who “mixed” his first broadcasts with ‘the Philadelphia Orchestra. .

Even then Mr. Stokowski was enamored of the microphone’s possibilities. As the story goes, he kept interrupting the engineers with requests for headphones, suggestions and what-not, until they installed him in a glass booth with a panel and a lot of “dummy” dials. Then they say, he was perfectly content.

Radio Costarred Harlow, Taylor

Radio, not the films, costarred Jean Harlow and Robert Taylor the first time when they appeared in a CBS “Radio Theater” version of “Madame Sans-Gene” back in - December.

The famous actress, who died yesterday morning in a Hollywood hospital, was not a regular broad-

caster, but her network perform- |

ances included, in addition to the appearance with Taylor, at least one other “Radio Theater” appearance. The actress’ last completed picture was “Personal Property,” in which is again coStarred with Mr. Taylor, though it was their firs time

W. A.|Clark, Cincinnati, | Named WIRE Station : | | Manager.

By RALPH NORMAN

If you listened to WFBM’s “High School Scholarship” broadcast the other afternoon, you know that the amateur programs have not exhausted radio's talent supply. far from it. |

From Indianapolis and other In-.

diana high schools during the last winter, more than 500 seniors came to the William H. Block Co. audi« torium, where the weekly broadcast originated. to compete in 28 programs. Fourteen winners appeared on the final program, and if you dialed ~ it}. you heard a broadcast comparable in versatility and skill to the network amateur hours.

Richard Carson, 3136 Broadway,

tive, won the $200 award for his accomplished Xylophone playing, which demonstrated both mastery of the instrument and stage and microphon technique. He will use the prize, he said, for further music study. | > While the only prize was the $200 scholarship, the Manual Melodiers, a 10-piece orchestra from anual Training High School, because of their radio appearance, have an all-summer contract at Long Acre Park. Byron Taggart, Plainfield, an impersonator, has made several professional appearances since he first appeared | on the WFBM amateur show.

The amateur show idea voomied

wi ith Maj. Bowes NBC presentation, | which later moved to CBS to be | heard ea¢h Thursday evening. Amateur shows admittedly have declined in popularity from last season's peak, but as long as there is undiscovered talent among the youngsters—and the WFBM program this last season clearly showed there is—the amateur broadcasts, have a place in

radio.

Eugene| C. Pulliam, WIRE owner, today announced the appointment of W. A. Clark of Cincinnati as station manager. recently was manager of the Cincinnati Post's station, WCPO in Cincinnati, assumes his new. duties Thursday. : ” n n Daylight listeners will be interested in Peggy Wood's new serial which premieres on NBC-Blue at 12:45 p. m. tomorrow and is to be heard cach Wednesday and Friday at that hour. Miss Wood has lived an active theatrical life since her first professional appearance “Naughty Marietta.” Unlike most daylight drama, Miss Wood's opus will not be a serial, but will be a series of skits “which will give her opportunity for song recitals, dramatic readings, playlets and Conan The first skit is to be based on a transcontinental auto tour which the Siar made last fall. 8 2 -48 > “America’s Town Meéfing” broadcast breaks two precedents this summer. Foremost, there are to be summer broadcasts, and secondly, they are to originate away from New York's Town Hall, where the two winter series originated. | : Two broadcasts—on July 8 and 15—are to originate in the Institute of Public Affairs at the University of Virginia, and a third program—on Aug. 5—is to be carried from the Chautauqua Institution at Chautauqua, N. Y. All three programs are to be heard at 8 p. m. over the NBC-Blue network. Speakers for the first broadcast are to be Senator. Nye (R. N. D.) » and Clark M.

“most embarrassing moment.” | It was when his loud speaker ceased functioning and his audience numbered 40,000 persons. It was at Fresno, Cal, at one of Rhoeding Park's famous music festivals. “An |earthquake couldn't frighten me any more than the sudden, ghastly realization that none of those 40,000 people could hear what I was saying into the microphone,” confessing - hs still. gets panicky at personal appearances thinking of that faulty “mike.” The entertainer is accustomed to large audiences, and probably. more than |any other broadcaster, has appeared before vast groups. His record—made in California where even crowds seem to be on the “colossal” size—is 100,000 persons, entertained at Fleischacker playground in San Francisco. . Microphone trouble occasionally cuts radio programs off the air, or wire breakdowns or other technical difficulties make an interlude of ‘piano | music necessary, but broadcasters never are aware of these interruptions ng the program closes. ” ” The Voree show is to originate in Detroit tonight, where he and his Gang are making an appearance before his sponsor’s dealers. Cia xe Ben Bernie, according to a New York studio observer, not only directs orchestra and guest stars through his NBC-WLW 7 p. m. show each Tuesday, but directs the studio audience as well. Bo trick to control laughter is to stroke what he calls “what’s left of my hair.” That's the audience’s cue tp laugh, and he also leads the applause. Each guest star tries to steal’ the maestro’s thunder by rubbing his or her hair, expecting the audience to laugh. Each one apparently thinks he's the first to steal the trick.
