WMAL turns out several high
quality production programs for
local broadcasting. "Wonderfiame''
and LAS the Wheels Turn" are prob
ably the two top shows from the
production point of view. Each
show uses musicians, a script and d
cast. Both programs are ably created
and produced. The judicious use OF
excellent local talent on these shows
makes for good listening. WMAL
produces a number of other pro-
grams, "The Music Box" with Traf-
ton Robertson and Ida Clark, and
Youth in Trouble" draniatization
of District of Columbia juvenile
delinquency cases, are two examples.
Probably VOLS, top live show is
"Open House." heard each afternoon
from 4 to S pm. The program
features several vocalists, an or
ganist and the audience participates
in the broadcast. Evening Ser

portion, uses cast and script to
dramatize the history of Washing
ton. This stations local shows are
rounded out with "At Home With

Death on Wheels" is probably the
most ambitious local program on
WWDC. This program, produced in

Most people we have talked with
around Washington on the subject
of radio think that the only thing
you hear locally produced on District
of Columbia stations are records,
spot announcements and talks. This
idea suggested a bit of investigation
on our part. We inquired of program
directors of the Washington stations
and received some confirmation of
our suspicion that there was more
local programming than meets the
eye or ear.
1t is true that most locally pre-
sented programs are based on
records or transcriptions and a
personality. There are great num-
ber of news broadcasts that use the
services of editors, announcers and
commentators. Each Washington
station has a morning man, and a
Woman's program. And each Wash
ington station has plans for develop
ment of live talent production shows
greatly in excess of their current
efforts, but the record isn't bad and
it will improve.
WRC's most ambitious program is
Matchless Service Time" This show
Is heard on Tuesday evening at
1905 and uses the services of Is
piece orchestra, two vocalists and a
dramatic cast. All these ingredients
are we'll put together and make
excellent listening. This station s
Consumer Time" is a locally pro-
duced network program that is
heard coast to coast and is well re-
ceived. WRC has number of other
live talent shows using local people

the only local daily dramatic serial
produced in Washington. Janice
