though in each instance the moving
spirits are making as little noise as pos
Two of the projects are under way

stations of that group and one other
are interchanging programs and have
organized the General Broadcasting Co.
The stations are WFAB, New York;
WPEN, Philadelphia; WDEL, Whining
ton; WCBM, Baltimore, and VOL,
Washington, all of which except the
first were identified with Wynn's chain.
According to sponsors OF this network,
II now is simply q mutual project lOr
interchange of programs, which, how
ever, will be available for commercial
use on a network basis. Paul Harron,
executive Of WFAB and WPEN, Is pres

one taste OF the real stID
5000 a case as Pol Roget 'l8
champagne. I guess those days
are gone forever remember one
time we sold the steward OF a
ritzy club a load of whisky.
I'VE had built this sucker up
with a story that we had wan
gled 80 barrels of genuine bonded
whisky out of a warehouse. He
finally agreed to take Is 30-gal-
Ion barrels at $50 a gallon II
we could prove that it was the
real Mccoy. So he waltzed down
to our warehouse with an old
experienced whisky man to test
the booze for him. He brought
his own truck and as they tested
each barrel they loaded it on
the truck. Four hundred and
fifty gallons at $50 per gallon
figures S22.5o0, which wasn't
bad when you figure that our
only cost was for the barrels and
about a gallon of real booze.
1--WE had taken each barrel and
filled it with melted paraffin.
After it hardened we stuck an
auger into the bung and bored
out a hole. We filled that hole
with about a quart of genuine
whisky The paraffin made the
barrel weight just about right
and the sample sloshed around
in a very gratifying manner. So
after one taste of the real stuff
they would pitch the barrel on
the truck. Not bad, eh?"
