RADIO CONTEST
WINS WIDE
FAVOR
Public Likes to Be on the In.
side Of Programs, Wire
less Critic Says

: Why some radio programs find
a better response with the public
than others, Is the task assumed
by Miss Marjory Stuart, radio critic
Of station KDKA, worlds pioneer
station, operated by the Westing.
house Electric & Manufacturing
Company at East Pittsburgh, Pa.
1t has been found that those radio
programs which permit the partici.
patton Of the radio audience arc
the ones in which the radio fans
find their greatest thrill.
This means that when a missing
word contest is radiocast, or when
some problem is sent out into the
ether for the radio fans to solve,
1t Is then that the average radio
fan sits back and thinks radio is
the greatest thing in the world.
Perhaps the same fan thinka
similarly when he hears a magnifi.
cent opera broadcast, or when tho
concert singer entertains or during
good lecture, but II he does he
doesn't make so many remarks
about 1t.
There Is q fascination about ait.
ting at the radio with pencil and
paper in hand and either drawing
some animal partly described by
the announcer. OF writing down q
problem to be solved that Ia fell
by every radio listener.
That this feeling is universal car
be easily proved by asking the fans
themselves. Ask the football ian
what he likes best about the broad
cast Of the play by play reports
He will tell that he likes to Law
out the football gridiron on paper
ana then as the progress of play Is
radiocast to draw on the paper
the progress of the teams. Ask the
fight fan who sits with pencil in
hand and writes out the rounds
which the favorite boxer has wor
| or lost. Even during the great
national conventions SNst concluded
it was the ability to BIT. down and
add up the votes as they were cast
thus showing the total being given
to the various candidates, that kept
| the fans seated before their loud
speakers or with headphones or
their ears for long hours.
A fascinating business is tho
opinion Of all who have taken par
in these radio contests. At KDKA
when the animal guessing contests
were broadcast, not only children
took part. Many grown-up alst
drew a picture, and, while not
sending 1t in to the radio officials
kept it prominently displayed.
1t Is because of these persona
touches which these contests OF
other radio parties engender be
tween the station and the listeners
that KDKA always has one or two
such stunts" every month or so

Politics WIN make It's second
spectacular entrance on the air
tonight with an important soliloquy
by John w. Davis.
The notification scene which will
be played in Clarksburg win climax
that other long scene which was
laid in Madison Square Garden, and
in which the real hero maintained
a complete silence.
There has been sufficient time
since then to recondition any sets

And, all in all, it IL believed
that the air galleries will be
packed tonight just as they were
packed during the garden scenes.
It is the most remarkable char
acteristic of radio that no matter
how quickly or how often the
action jumps from place to place,
the broadcasters can keep up with
it and bring it all back to every set.
Perhaps our greatest grumbling
has been directed at the repeated
requests for applause letters from
performers. We have slapped them
on the wrist and socked them be.

And yet, Saturday night we heard
a request for comment from WRC

London, March 10--The British are going to try broadcastinG to America Thursday night. and the American listcners-in will have to swallow some of their own medicine. for the pro- gram will consist of jazz played by Yankee dance bands at Il London ho- tel.
 It is tho first time the British have tried to send their radio program across the ocean. Heretofore in all the trans Atlantic broadcasting they have been on tho listening end, and what they heard was usually saSo- phonic syncopation, which may or may not explain why they have de- ciled to hurl fox trots through the air to "rinpan Alley" The transmits sion will hc between one and two thirty o'clock in the morning, London time, or about the dinner hour in eastern and western states.
