Here and There
In the Realm Of
Broadcastins
By RUDY SPARETIRE

This is a weekend of some sig
nificance, so far as radio fans are
concerned.
With the approach of Septem-
Der, the broadcaSting chains are
right on their toes, and are ton
ing up their menus to make them
as attractive as possible. Later
in the year. more people stay
home, That's one reason, any
how.
Maybe you listened last even
ing to Howard Parlow's orchestra
in it's rendition of the overture
to the Berlioz opera, "Benvenuto
Cellini," seldom if ever before pre-
sented on the air, and a work
we'll worth hearing at any hour
of the day or night.
Tomorrow, at 4 p. m, over
WMAL, you can hear all about
the imperial conference at Of
tawa. Most of us know little
enough about it, and when Stan
ley Baldwin, who was head man
during it's deliberations, takes the
trouble to broadcast his views on
it from London, they should be
worth hearing.
At 6:15 p. m. tomorrow, too,
you can get the real low-down
on the solar eclipse, for Capt. j.
F. Hollweg, Of the U. S. Naval
Observatory here, will tell what
scientists hope to discover from
observing it. He will speak from
New York, not from the NB.C.
studio here, and will depart for
the north Immediately afterward
to watch the sclipse himself.
Sunday, at $3.50 p. m, you have
the chance to hear the first air
performance of the double key
board piano, said to be the first
Legitimate" new instrument in
the concert field since the inven
ton of the English horn years
ago. With it the most difficult
piano selections in octaveS can he
played with one finger. Tune in
on WMAL for this.
All the regular features for the
weekend in addition, of course.
Among them the National Jubilee
Singers, over WRC, in the first
quartet arrangements of the Law
renee Tibbett number. "Shortnin'
Bread"
It's Like This
Ben Bernie, the Old Maestro,
