J., in Cheerio's mail, comes the story of David Govan, eight months old. who during the hip hip -hurrah" part Of the Cheerio broadcast recently, caused fond parents mingled pride and pain when at the top of his baby lungs he suddenly cried "Hurray"
 Joe White, Irish tenor heard over NEG networks, was on the air the other morning while NEG engineers were setting up interna- tional circuits for the Elgar me- morial broadcast from London. signal and while he was singing signaly and while he was singing "In 0 Town in Old New England" the BEG engineer in London asked, "Who is that singer? He has a jolly fine pair of lungs, hasn't he ?"
 It happened to be eleven years almost to the day since Joe was first heard in England. The first time was from WEAF, now aIl NEG key station.
 The worst hsa happened. Phil Baker is now an author! Phil made the confession over the air. As Eugene O'Baker, says the come dian. he is the author of volume called "Wit and Wittles," now be- ing distributed to his NEG ad- mirers.

If tbls keeps up Wayne King won't have time for meals. The much-programmed Waltz King. who manages to keep his soft melodies ever distinctive. begins still another series in addition to the ones he has on the air now. The new one, picked up by CBS, will be aired Sunday nights at 10 o'clock.
 We give a nod to Wayne's music. especially since he's gone in a bit more for variety, but we still hold that the sponsor of that program rates a carload of nasty for the completely and montonously an- moving arrangement which has An nouncer Phil Stuart using exactly the same words in introducing and closing the program-not even change of infection, week after week. And while we're on the sub- 5ect, we've given up hope that any thing will ever be done about it but we do wish those advertising plugs on that show were both shortened in time and toned down in content. With that change we could probably even stop squirm- ing while that too-sweet woman announcer rids herself of her ut- terly dull soft-voiced superlatives.
 Saturday night marked the
 last broadcast of the present
 crown Crier' series of Alex
 ander WoOlcott That bad news
 Is tempered by the fact that
 the writer and critic will he
 back on Columbia early in
 October. Alex's coming, to the mike, along with that of
 Deems Taylor and few
 others, gave a sure sign that
 radio is growing up, while the
 fact that audiences showed
 their liking for him In no un-
 certain terms proved that they
 are somewhat ahead of the 12-
 year-Old mentality usually
 credited them.
