REGULARS ONLY
ON THE AIR

S@~N-~T---~T--
one Of the finest nights OF the week
for listeners to go to the movies!
This doesn't mean. Of course, that
there win be no entertainment-but
thst Thursday has dropped back
into its old nut. and win provide just
staple fare. Perhaps the best pros.
pect for the evening Is the talk Col
onel Theodore Roosevelt Is scheduled
to give at z o'clock at WRNY on the
rather wide open subject OF What
Is an American" There will be q
talk from WMAL at 7:45 along the
same wide open lines-that which
Charles w. Darr, state deputy of
the knights of Columbus, will give
on Education"
In the main there viii be the
regular weekly programs to fall back
on and for once I'm rather glad OF
it because it will give opportunity to
car attention to one or two things
that hit the air regularly and should
make real dents In the consciousness
Of listeners--so much so that the
d4als would fall into them and stay
there every week.
