HOLLYWOOD. April II. up
What may have been the last of the
great Hollywood broadcasts is fin
ish, and your correspondent is still
marvelling that it could have been
accomplished in the year 1896.
1t probably was the last because
never again may circumstances COM
bine and rapidly expanding radio
contracts of stars permit such a
gathering of talent in one hour. II
was possible because "heartless Hol-

appoint a continent.
Unfortunately North American
readers did not hear it, but more
than tnirty million senoras y cab
alleros of South America heard a
coed will program that money could
not buy nor commercial producers
assemble.
The broadcast was sponsored by
La Critica of BuenoS Aires, one OF
the largest newspapers in the world
with the cooperation of the United
Press and the National Broadcast
ing company. 1t was piped by Spe-
cial wire to New York and short
waved to Buenos Aires for broad
cast throughout South America. but
could not be released in the United
States because of conflicting radio
contracts OF stars.
When Mario Garciapena OF La
Critica arrived in Hollywood to pre-
pare the program, many of the great
names Of the picture industry hac
been interviewed, but the OUTLOOK
was discouraging, and for a weeE
it grew rapidly worse.
