Peder Back, the well known seed
man from Racine, Wis.,. and equally
well known to radio fans, states in a

entire station over to him again for a
similar broadcast. This program will
be on the air from 1890 to o'clock
central standard time, during the
night between Saturday, March 25 and
NoiANoy, SO MI. DdCh states
that there will be one hour of church
music, One-half hour of art and one
hour Of mixed selections, all being
electric plates direct from Denmark
Those who listen i'm on the program
should acknowledge their appreciation
to either Mr.. Back or the station al
Milwaukee. 1t was estimated con
servatively that at least 100 Askovites
enjoyed the last program and there
will surely be at least that many who
will tune in Saturday night.
