Or Radio Listeners
BY Harry Macarthur

There is one complaint registered
against the practices OF radio that
can be supported with no trouble at
all. Much criticism, Of necessity,
has q basis in personal prejudice,
In the likes and dislikes OF the critic
II you do not like avocados 1t will
not make your life any fuller to be
offered the best avocados in the
world in place Of mediocre ones. The
personal preference is the only sup
port Of many complaints. Those
who charge that radio treats rather
shabbily the listeners who prefer
what it calls serious" music. how
ever, have but to point finger at
the radio program listings.
The four major networks bring
us-or brought us on a recent week
when we were being Statistical
grand total of nine hours of Ser
ious" music, eight Of them on Satur-
day and Sunday and not.a note on
Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. On
Saturday the Metropolitan Opera, on
WMAL at 2 pm, is followed at 5
O'Clock by the Philadelphia Orches-
ira on WTOP and an hour later by
the Cleveland Symphony on VOL.
Sunday, those able to devote that
hour to the musical classics can
hear the Fine Arts Quartet on
WMAL at II am. and the afternoon
brings a sizable portion of SYM
phonic works, with the New York
Philharmonic on WTOP at for an
hour and a half and the N. B. c..
Symphony on WRC at for an hour.
The ninth hour of the total Is pro-
vided by the Boston Symphony, on
WMAL at $3.50 pm. Tuesday. In.
addition there is only the new series
Of National Symphony concerts in
the schools, which WMAL carries on
Monday nights when they are avail
able.
