ROnping Around

Radio Dial
BY Listener-In

Two extensions OF broadcasting
hours by WRC within the past
week have helped considerably to
fill in, some Of the hours which un-
til recently were unused on the
local air. Last week the Park
Road station inaugurated q daily
organ recital at II O'Clock noon,
and last night it stepped in after
WCAP had retired for the night
and broadcast q dance program for
late listeners.
Yesterday something was on the
air locally from GAS o'clock in the
morning until midnight except for
about three and half hours.
WCAP was on for the early setting
up exercises and the regular even
ing program. The rest Of the time
WRC was furnishing the entertain

it can't get them all in during the
regular WRC hours. That was the
reason for coming on late .last
night. WCAP, because Of its COM
mercial ambitions, is finding q
great dearth Of broadcasting ma
terial. That is why the downtown
station is signing off so early
nowadays.

The Army Band program was
more than usually delightful. War
time selections played a prominent
part along with familiar old pieces
that everybody knows. 1t was the
kind of a program that makes the
whole family want to- hum with
the music.
