All Of MS have sighed at
an aunOunccr's voice inter-
rupting an otherwise enjoyable
program with lyric praise OF

dressing. IL you've wondered
how much time r. actually de-
voted to commercial announce
mcnts, you'll be interested In
the following:
In 1882. the average COM
mercial program broadcast mt
night, had three minutes, Al
seconds OF advertising. That
means that slightly more than
six per cent OF the hours time
was devoted TO plugs Of the
sponsors product. A 15-minute
night program gave one min
ute, 50 seconds, or lis per
cent OF It's time TO advertising.
A half-houP program averaged
two minutes. 30 seconds, or
S.8 per cent OF its time.
Morning programs have an
even higher percentage OF
plugging. The 1S.minute aver
age was two minutes and 20
seconds. which is 1875 per cent
OF It's time. The morning half
hour commercials had an av-
eragc Of two minutes, 20 Sec

'Drunkord' Held Second Week
At Roadside Theoter

With last week breaking attend
ance records at the Roadside
Theater, topping both Murder in
the Red Barn" and welcome to
His Excellency," the management
announces that "The Drunkard"
will continue its run through a
second week, beginning tonight.
That great old melodrama has
drawn more vociferous approval
than any of the previous Road
side productions. The floor lit
orally shook every night last week
from the stamping feet of pleased
audiences. Every available pop
box was pressed into service for
those who arrived after the S. R.
o. sign was displayed.
The Roadside Theater produc-
ton, as a revival of a revival, diff
fers considerably from other pre-
sentationS of "The Drunkard"
that have been playing for many
months all over the country. In
stead of costumes and settings OF
the 1840's, when the play was
first produced at the Boston Mu-
scum and at P. T. Barnum's
Museum in New York, the Road
siders have chosen to repro
duce the atmosphere of the
"gay nineties" when the play was
at its height of popularity as the
greatest single piece of propa-
ganda for temperance societies.
