Of shows into which the broadcasters
tried TO sandwich something to suit
everyone's taste. They are Just as
eager to please all of US this season,
but they're of on a new tack IN try

for specific shows catering to specific
audiences-with the program directors
trying, first, to find out the type Of
audience the sponsor wishes to
reach-and then building show for
the entertainment of that particular
group Of listeners.
And the result is highly satisfac-
tory. With a little study of radio
programs, you can find the shows
they've built for you without all the
trouble and boredom Of sitting
through a hodge-podge that wasn't
meant for you, anyway.
In other words, there's still balance
a-plenty in the fare offered by the
networks. But for the first time
you're being given carte blanche in
choosing the menu combinations

HYLESWORTH, PIONEER IN AIR
CHAINS, TURNS TO NEW DUTIES

TOR the first time in its nine
- years of existence, that dates
back back to a start November IA,
a 1925, the N. B. c. chain is going
along without the direct guiding touch
Of NJ. H "Deak" Aylesworth.
Since 1882 the movies have been
beckoning for the sole attention of
IN. II. A." and now they have finally
won over the man who played such a
big part In forming and building up
the country's first coast-to-coast net
work. Aylesworth, in addition to his
duties as president of N. B. c., was
chief executive of R-K-O. He resigned
that post month or so ago to become
Chairman of the R-K-O board. Now he
has turned over his N. 3. G. chieftain-
ship to Lenox r. Lohr, who ran the
1s33-34 Century of Progress. He re-
mains. however, as vice chairman Of
the N. B. G. board.
Although the N. B. c. network was
put together after an idea of linking
up stations that had been proven
technically practicable, its carrying
into actual operation goes to the credit
OF Aylesworth, together with his CO.
worker at the time, the late George r.
