(BROADWAY) By JACK GAVER

(UnltG0 Press Stan COrreSpOndent) New York, Aug. 27.-CUP)-The serious dray-ma, as distinguished from the who-dun-its, domsetic serials and juvenile dead-eye-dicks which comprise much of what passes for theater on the airwaves, is go- ing to get break this coming sea- son. It's up to the customers whether the effort in appreciated.
 Helen. Hayes is the headliner of one venture and the Theater Guild dominates the other. Those names should make the dial-twisters stop, think and listen for a couple of weeks at least.
 The diminutive Miss Hayes, who has done lot of radio work along with her stage chores, is letting Broadway get along without her to concentrate on radio show built exactly to her specifications. She feels that if she is to make serious effort on the air she must forego play for the season.
 Presents Madame Curie''
 She will bow in at D. m. (EWTD Sept. 8 over the Columbia Broadcast ing System in something called the Textron Theater and will be heard regularly at that time for 30 min- uteS on succeeding Saturday nights. Her first play will be an adaptation of Madame Curie."
 Her future vehicles will be chosen as the result of nationwide ballot- ing on list of A plays, films and novels and from original radio dramas which she will have written for her by few of the country,s top playwrights. These ballots have been distributed to department stores and among the items from which to choose are Angel Street" ddeal for her), "Arrowsmith," "Vic- toria Regina" Little Women" Out ward Bound" and "Jane Eyre" Theater Guild Radio Show The Theater Guilds project be- gins the following night, Sept. g at 10 p. m. over the nationwide net work of the American Broadcasting Co. This is an hour-long program, making possible a pretty full inter pretation of play. The U. S. Steel Go. is the sponsor and the program will be called the Theater Guild on the Air.
 Plays to be adapted for presenta- tion will be taken not only from the large files of the guild but also from among the better plays of other producers which have won success in the last Is or 20 years. The producer will be George Kondolf, himself Broadway producer a dec- ade ago and after that an executive of the Federal theater project in Chicago and New York. Top ac- tors will be used in the productions and. where possible, players who created various roles will be used In the dramas with which they were connected.
 Andrew Kostelanetz, who has the double distinction of being one of the best known orchestra conductors and the husband of opera star Lily Pons, has himself a new radio show He'll return with his band Sept. 6 occupying the Q to e:30 D. m. slot on the Columbia network on Thurs day nights. An automobile manu.

 Seen in October

South Bend, Ind, Aug. 27-The removal of wartime production con- trols and the cancellation of mili- tary contracts will enable the Stu- debaker Corporation to resume pas senger car production early in Oc- tober and to attain higher levels of manufacture in the final quarter of this year than had been author iZed, K. B. Elliott, vice president in charge of sales for the company stated today.
 Initially, Studebaker's entire pas- senger car production will be con- centrated on the Champion, the company's offering in the lowest price field, Elliott disclosed.
 ''Now that our military contracts have been cancelled we can accel- crate our Champion production program" he said. '"rhe Champion engine was used to power the Stud ebaker military personnel and cargo carrier known as the Weasel. As q result, the Champion engine line remained intact throughout the wal and its output now can be diverted exclusively to civilian use.
 Production facilities for oui higher priced models, on the other hand, had to be dismantled in order to provide war production facilities quickly. Consequently, manufacture of our higher priced models will bs resumed somewhat later as 1t must await the arrangement of facili- ties and the procurement and de- livery of new machines and equip. ment."
 The l946 Champion, studebaker'l first postwar offering. vill be dis tinctively new in appearance ans will feature improved riding quail ties, Elliott said. It will be offere, in four body styles-two-door an four-door sedans and two coup
