COAST STATIONS
BOUGHT BY n. B. c.
Purchase Represents Depart.
ure in PoIicy-Citizens
Asked Financial Aid.
By ROBERT MACK.

Close on the heels Of the announce
ment that q new Western broadcasting
chain will shortly be launched around
KNx of Los Angeles, the National
Broadcasting Co. today verified reports
that It has purchased controlling inter-
est in four important Pacific Coast sta
lions. Tentative plans are to build a
supplemental Pacific Coast network
around them and probably to use them
also as outlets for programs OF the blue
network.
The stations were purchased by Don
Gilman, San Francisco president OF the
N. B. G. They were once the nucleus
of the American Broadcasting Co., q
network which also had plans to be-
come national In scope, but which met
bankruptcy upon the collapse Of the
finances OF its promoter, Adolph Linden.
Citizens Asked Aid.
The stations are KYA, San Francisco,
! 900 watts on 1890 kilocycles: KJR,
Seattle, 5000 watts on the clear chan
mel of $40 kilocycleS; KEX, Portland,
5000 watts on the clear channel of
1.1s0 kilocycles. which IT shares with
KOB, State College, N. Mex, and KGA,
Spokane, 5000 watts on 1,470 kilocycles.
Acquisition by the N. B. G. Of 81 per
cent of the stock in these stations was
effected when bankers and citizens
interested in them asked the N. B. c.
to take them over to save them from
the heavy losses being sustained in
their operation. The purchase repre-
scented departure in policy for N. B. c.,
whose president, M. H. AyleswoTth, re-
Gently told the Federal Radio Commits
sion that his company was not in the
market for more stations.
Experts to Make Survey.
Exactly how the N. B. C. will utilize
the new group Of stations cannot be
foretold by the networks executives
themselves. Five experts on station
management and finance are being sent
to the Pacific Coast to make q survey
Of the situation, which Is reported to
be in an almost hopelessly muddled
state.
Already serving nine stations in its
present Pacific Coast network. the N.
B. G. does not intend to sever or change
its relationships with any Of those sta
tons.
The new network being projected
around KNX is reputed to be backed
by Hearst money. It is to be known as
the North American Broadcasting Co,
and its president is Guy Earl, IT,, who
recently sold his newspaper. the Los
Angeles Express, to Paul Block. Sta
ton xxx Is located on the Paramount
lot in Hollywood and has drawn freely
for talent from Paramount stars. though

Folks Behind
The MicrophOne
BY THE RADIO EDITOR.

~ ESIDES being the original radio
- girl" and one Of the highest paid
radio performers, Vaughn De
L. Leath. soprano Of the National
Broadeasting Co. is reputed TO
be the one who first used and popu-
larized, in a public way, the restrained
manner Of singing, better known as
grooming"
she hit upon this grooming method
by accident and due somewhat to me-
chanfcal necessities. Miss De Leath is
starting back in the cTystal-set days.
Before the microphone had been per-
fectly adjusted 10 the range Of the
human voice, a sopranos high notes

transmitting panel Tubes cost Sll0

time taken 10 insert a new tube.
Miss De Leath developed a new style
Of singing, using a "thr0aty" modula-
ton Of voice that kept within the range
Of the microphones Of that DAY. Groom
ers" soon began to spring up every
where.
In January. 1920, before the first
regularly scheduled broadcast of radio
program was made from Station KDKA,
Pittsburgh, her voice was heard on the
air from O stuffy little wireless room"
atop a New York skyscraper To get to
the studio" she had 70 climb three
flights Of narrow, winding stairs to a
room hardly big enough TO hold piano.
There she sang songs and told stories
into an odd eontraption that was the
microphone Of that day.

his image in the television receiver and

ira, under the baton of Albert
Coates, during that part of the
stadium concert which will be
broadcast over the WABC- Column
bia network, from $50 to $50
pm. Thursday.
There has been much discussion,
since Ralph Vaughan Williams
London Symphony" was first
performed, as to whether the
work should be regarded as pro-
gram music. The most Satisfac-
tory answer appears to lie in the
results Of an analysis of the SYM
phony, showing it to contain very
little definitely objective writing,
with purely subjective music much
in the majority. There are scat
tered through the symphony,
however, a rumber of little motifs
used to characterize particular
London scenes, as, for example,
the Westminster chimes, the ira
ditional cry of the lavender seller,
the jingle of bells on a hanson
cab (still the usual vehicle for
passenger conveyance in 1914,
when the symphony was Written) j,
and the suggestion of a mouth
organ or concertina being played
by some itinerant, half-musical
mendicant.
The London Symphony" will
be the only work performed dur
ing the broadcast.
