LET'S Rs YOUR MIND

By DR. ALBERT EDWARD WIGGAM

THOUSANDS of interviews with unhappily married couples by the various Institutes for Marital Counsel, now heing rapidly formed all over the country, and also the records of divorce courts, show that more matrimonial quarrels begin at breakfast than at any other hour of the day. Whether this is because, very often, the two have been out late or have not slept well and their nerves feel “like sweet bells jangled out of tune,” or whether it is hecause they are making plans and solving problems for the day, is not clear. Probably both factors enter.

or building or creating something? I never have. True, while a child is making a radio set or building a block house or writing a story or drawing a picture, he may refuse to leave it and go on mother’s errand or come promptly to supper— if you call that “misbehavior”; but, aside from that, while a child has his whole mind set on creating

something that seems to him im-|

portant or exciting or beautiful he can't misbehave.

IT DOES seem curious that children will talk" more freely about their problems and anxieties when with several other children than they will when with only one companion, but this is just, the op-

posite of adults, with the possible exception of extreme extroverts, who carry their hearts and troubles on their sleeves. By the time we become grown-ups we have had our original impulses and attitudes s0 overloaded with inhibitions, fears and inferiorities that we wear a mask when with others and only take it off in private after much questioning: and persuasion by a psychologist or physician.

Preview to Be Given Spanish War Film Tonight.

|By RALPH NORMAN

NBC's double network system, with its Red and Blue chains, is sufficiently complicated to make dialing difficult if one is hunting an unlisted program.

Most confusing feature of this dual setup is the fact that stations seldom are either Red or Blue consistently, but switch from one chain to the other. Red network outlets take more Red programs than they do Blue division programs, and Blue stations carry most of their programs from the Blue chain, but I believe no station is Red or Blue exclusively. This summer both chains are divided during several broadcasting periods, and NBC in reality operates four networks at certain hours. This naturally increases listener confusion. For instance, while Lum and Abner are heard over the Blue chain at 5:30 p. m. today, a portion of the Blue network's outlets will carry a dinner concert. Today, probably a typical broadcasting day, has a total of 19 periods| when one or both of the NBC chains will be split. At nine different periods the Red net work will carry two programs, and at 10 different periods two programs may be heard on Blue sta- - tions. Five-minute divisions for news broadcasts are not included in this total. NBC has divided its chains before, of course, but there was 2a marked increase this summer after the change to Daylight Saving Time.

us #” "

CBS seldom splits the network, although a few programs are piped to Eastern stations which are not heard in the Middle West. On both CBS and NBC, member stations are signed for commercial programs only, and noncommercials are carried or ignored at the station's option. | This, of course, further,complicates this business of finding: programs which are not carried on local. stations or other stations td which you're accustomed to ‘hearing. [| s = = | An NBC official who should know tells me that the eof font network rivalry is not confined to commercial accounts and outstanding sustaining features [like the sports broadcasts. It extends, he says, even to banners, and some hectic fights have been waged by CBS and NBC officials over size and location of convention hall signs. This rivalry is far from new. It had its origin back in 1932 at the Republican and Democratic conventions in (Chicago, flared ,again at Cleveland and Philadelphia in 1936. It seems very funny, but shows the lengths networks go in battle for supremacy.

Last winter James J. Braddock egan a radio series that ran into almost as much trouble as his current fight contracts, but he’s back on NBC now despite earlier difficulties. Last winter he opened a sponsored series, broadcast a program or two, then was taken off the air while | a substitute was heard. He contended he had a contract «nd turned up at the radio studio for

were amiss. The settlement, I believe, was not made public. At least, news of it never reached this outpost. Braddock was signed for two interviews this week, with Clem MecCarthy doing the questioning. And he will be a central figure Tuesday evening, of course. when McCarthy and Edwin C. Hill broadcast the

| Braddock-Louis fight from Chicago.

” n ” It's probably only cqincidence, but Raymond Paige, who leads the band for CBS’ “Hollywood Hotel,” is cred-

‘| ited with first presenting movie stars

on radio. Now “Hollywood Hotel,” as you must know, does little else but present movie stars, who weekly preview a forthcoming picture. Paige some six years ago over the Los Angeles station KHJ brought film folks to his microphone for informgl and unrehearsed interviews, little suspecting, I imagine, that guest starring would dominate network programs in just a few years. ” » »

“Hollywood Hotel's” preview tonight will be of ‘Last Train from Madrid,” the Paramount picture based on the Spanish civil war. Cast members will include Gilbert Roland, Helen Mack, Dorothy Lamour, Lionel Atwilli and Lew Ayres. “Last Train From Madrid” is scheduled at the Circle for a week beginning next Friday.

By JAMES

There wil be another addition tonight to the increasing number of | interesting and high-standard chamber music broadcasts offered as sus-

taining features. At 8:30 o'clock, from WMAQ, Chicago, on the NBC Blue network, will be heard the first of a new series by a quartet calling

themselves the Liedersingers.

My information does not list the program, but the series is to be de- |

voted to German Lieder and French chansons, seldom heard in their

original forms. Such things as the &- Atwater Kent winner who has been |

part songs of Schubert, Schumann and Brahms will be heard, and the Liedersingers announce that they will sing only music originally written for part singing. Members of the ensemble should be familiar to listeners who have paid much attention to vocal radio music in the past few ears. The soprano is Carol Deis, who was the Atwater Kent auditions winner in 1930 and who, since then, has devoted her talents almost exclusively to broadcasting. ; Celia Branz, contralto, has been a radio performer for several seasons, and Geerge Rasely, the tenor, beeame a member of the Metropoli- | ¢
