Phil Baker to Be Heard » On CBS Network Beginning Oct. 3.

< Naty WN Na “

Postponement of the Tommy |Farr-Joe Louis heavyweight cham{pionship fight caused less confusion |than might have been expected in NBC schedules today. " Bob Burns and his guests were standing by to present their program in case an early knockout gave them time. With the fight delaved until Monday night, they are to have the whole hour. The Arkansas philosopher and Times columnist is to present Ina Claire in a series -of impersonations. That, should be a treat, for Miss Claire does not often do skits on the radio, but usually appears in formal dramatic productions. Brian Aherne also is to be a guest of Mr. Burns. The Metropolitan Opera Star, Helen Jepson, is to be present, but hardly as a guest, for Miss Jepson is a “Music Hall” veteran, having had a role on the pro- | gram before going to the Metropolitan. It is to be something of a homecoming for her. WIRE and WLW are to carry the program at 8 p. m,, when the fight | broadcast was scheduled to begin. | Every NBC station, on the broadcast band or short wave, was to have carried the description of the championship bout. ” ” A near-lynching at Sullivan, Ind. is to be dramatized by Floyd Gibbons on CBS-WFBM at the same time. Dan R. McGarry, now of Long Beach, €al, was a mine superintendent in the southern Indiana coal field in 1923. A mob of 1000 which claimed he had committed a crime gave him his choice of being hanged or shot. He is to tell Mr. Gibbons how his choice in that dilemma prevented kis death, Phil Baker is to have a coast-to-coast CBS network when he returns to WFBM and the other stations of the chain on Oct. 3. The accordion-playing comedian is to be heckled again by the team of Bottle and Beetle. Bottle, of course, is the British comic, Harry McNaughton, but the identity of ‘the ghostly-voiced Beetle is still Mr. Baker's secret, concealed even from the studio audience. Mr. McNaughton has helped Harry von Zell with the substitute program this summer. Mr. Baker, now in Hollywood, intends to continue the use of situation comedy in his new series, he says.

Newest find of Rudy Vallee is Tommy Riggs and imaginary Betty Low, who went East just after an appearance at the Lyric theater here with the WLW show. Mr. Riggs reverses the usual routine of ventriloquism, as can be seen in the above picture. When he sings or speaks in his own voice, as in the picture at the left, his mouth is hardly opened at all. When he sings or talks as Betty, he opens his mouth wide, as at the right. He is to be Rudy's guest again tonight over WIRE and WLW at 6 o'clock.

n on 5 Ted Husing, broadcasting the National Amateur Golf Tournament at Portland, Ore. is aided by a clever new invention. Mr. Husing used to have to climb trees or ladders to broadcast golf tournaments, so that his mumbling would not disconcert the players. For the amateur tournament, Paul White, Columbia's public affairs director, developed a peri-scope-umbrella that Mr. Husing can stick inte the ground behind the crowd at a green. The periscope magnifies the ball, cup and player 10 times. A sliding microphone is fixed on the umbrella stick. The umbrella protects the equipment from rain and Mr. Husing from sun and rain. You can hear him at frequent intervals on WFBM.

Good * ‘8 8 Radio Mirror, one of the fan magazines, this week honored Maj. Bowes as radio's “master showman” by placing his name at the head of its new “Roll of Honer.” Fred R. Sammis, the publication’s editor, writes for the October - issue: “Maj. Bowes, who started the . craze that broke out in a rash from coast to coast, has lived beyond the amateur tad, has outlived the jokes, the stories and the imitators—until now, when the announcement of an amateur show causes less than a ripple of excitement, he has the most consistently popular hour in radio.” The Major and his “amateurs” are to honor Hartfcrd, Conn. over CBS- , WFBM at 7 o'c.ock tonight.

Excerpts from the recently discovered Schumann violin concerto are to be heard on tonight's March of Time broadcast at 8 o'clock on CBS-WFBM. This is one of the biggest musical “scoops” in radio history, since the performing rights currently are held by Yehudi Menuhin, who will not play the “new” work (composed in 1853) until October.

I'VE HAD more disagreement among correspondents on this question than any for a long time. Most young people say, “Keep the marriage secret, it's none of their business.” Middle aged and older people say “Depends on circumstances. If she loves her husband divorce is out of the question. If he can possibly support her, then give up the job or try to find another. If these won't work, then keep marriage secret if possible.”

Sedulous!y avoiding the beaten path, the conductor has selected iittle-known works by Handel, Bach, Mozart and modern composers. First of all there will be the overture to Handel's “Occasional Oratorio,” which is believed to have been written to celebrate the failure of the Jacobite rising in 1745. After this will come Mr, Herrmann's transcription of Bach's chorale prelude, “Jesus Christus, unser Heiland.” Mozart will be represented by “A Musical Joke,” cataloged No. 522 in the Koechel list. Hurdling the Romanticists, Mr. Herrmann: will bring his listeners to recent times with a performance of the Prelude and Entracte from “Jack-in-the-Box,” by . the French impressionist, Erik Satie. The Prelude and Fugue from Ives’ Fourth Symphony will follow, and the concert is to be coneluded with Robert Russell Bennett's serious-sounding work, “Six Variations in Fox-Trot Time on a Theme by: Jerome Kern.”
