 The award-winning juvenile ad- venture series, House of Mystery" in which the Mystery Man. Roger Elliott, takes youthful listeners in- to an investigation of strange and occult happenings, returns to the Mutual network in new series of weekly programs to be heard each Sunday, starting with the broad cast of Sunday, October 6, from to 4:30 D. m. on WNLC.
 The unique adventure series Is designed to expose the scientific and logical foundation for happen ings and stories that apparently have supernatural basis. For it's value in debunking these legends and superstitions, as well as for it's overall entertainment value, House of Mystery" was cited by the Ohio State Institute for Educa- ton by Radio as the leading pro- gram of 1945 in the children's cate gory. Parents, educators and other organizations have also expressed high approval of the aims of the program.
 Roger Elliott, Identified on the program as ''The Mystery Man." in- vites young listeners to his house each week for journey into the realm of the unknown, and dem- onstrates that ghosts, witches and other unearthly phenomena are actually non-existent; that belief in them results from a lack of knowledge of certain natural causes. The weekly expeditions. incidentally, have a very definite appeal to adult listeners as well as children.
 House of Mystery" will again be sponsored by General Foods Corp.
