RADIO BRIEFS

Dean Gleason l.. Archer of Suf- folk Law school, Boston, whose talks on Laws That Safeguard So- ciety" are an NEG feature, each summer trains school of fish in the laws of nature. On his Massa = | chusetts farm he teaches hundreds of spcckled trout to eat red ham, burg steak, fattening them for guests.
 The fish leap out scores at a time as the steak smacks the water. After they've been taught to eat anything red, the dean snares them with such bait as rose petals or apple peels. Each. when graduat- ed to the dinner table, weighs three-quarters of q pound.
 The most miserable moment in the life of Jimmy Both. Chicago NEG musician, was spent at his wedding. Johnny Wolfe, NEG story-teller of the National Farm and Home Hour. and best man, searched all pockets for the we'd ding ring and finally found it in his shoe, where he had put 1t for good luck.
 Charles E. TramOnt, who an- n0unces Phil Cook and other pro- grams for NEG. is the proud owner of q new high-pOWered automO- bile. He iH trying to set some kind of speed record between New York and Buffalo, his home town.
 NEG has three completely equip ped studios from which no pro- grams are ever broadcast over the air. They are studios x, r and z, used only for additions and re- hearsals.
 The NBC Artists Service has un- der it's exclusive management lO5 | concert artists, thirty dance or | chestras and 250 special entertain ers.
 There's no halting ardent radio fans, according 10 letter received by NEG, The writer said he was ! sitting in his hotel suite, Just a l few blocks from the NEG studios at 7ll Fifth avenue, listening tC 1 Carveth Wells relating his adven- | ture stories last Sunday. Sudden | ly the radio speaker became silent. A call downstairs brought the dis couraglng information that the | hotel radio system had failed and wouldn't be repaired for several hours.
 The provoked listener recalled that some friends al Norfolk, Va, were to give a radio party that day to hear Wells. The listener called them by long distance tele- phone and aksed that they place the telephone before the speaker. He concluded his letter with the statement: Tt cost me s3.30, but it
 was worth it."
 | And only a few blocks away
 Wells was speaking into a micro phone.
