Tommie Thompson's Bolero Five. and Danny Deever's orchestra. With the Whiteman orchestra he is a reed specialist, but he modestly admits that he can toot little on every instrument in the band.

Beautiful Spring, I'm All A-Twitter. Alabamy Snow, and On Duty. WEAF heads the broad cast.
 There is reason for the speed and finish of the production Ray mond Knight directs over the N. B. c. system. It is Knights versatil- ity. As far back as his days in the Harvard 47 workshop, Knight was not only writing plays and acting in them. but was stage managing them too. He joined N. B. c. as continuity writer. but his scripts were so individual that he was soon given the job of producing them himself.
