Famous Story from Old Tesla
ment Regarding Joseph to
Be Oramatized

The next OF the series Of Immortal
Dramas" will be the first part Of the
story Of Joseph-The Coat Of Many
Colors-Sunday, Feb. II, at l p. m.
(CSTD, over coast-to-coast NBC-
WEAF network.
This famous story from the Old
Testament has been adapted to the
radio in two parts to be broadcast on
successive Sundays. Each part will
be treated as separate dramatic
production without sacrificing the
continuity Of the narrative in its orig
inal form. The symphonic and
choral background Is designed to
heighten the dramatic action.
AS the scene opens Joseph discovers
that his brothers have been stealing
from the flocks Of their father, Jacob.
The subsequent revenge OF the BROTH
ers. first, in attempting to take
Joseph's life, and, finding this un-
successful, in selling him to travelling
merchants after staining his coat of
many colors with lambs blood to
create the appearance that he had
been killed by wild animals, will be
dramatized, accompanied by appro-
pirate musical themes.
The tender love between Joseph and
his father, and the latter's grief upon
being told of the boys death is con-
sidered one Of the most touching in
cidents of the Old Testament.
