Ravens Eye Disc
Jockey STINT

NEW YORK. -Who said that
there's nothing new under the
disc jockey sun? There is some
thing in the form of a new idea
being readied by the Ravens
quartette for test airing on a
local Independent station.
The formal. conceived by Jim
my Kicks of the singing four
some, calls for all four men to
share in the record chatter. There
are a number of programs
throughout the country with two
Jocks but the proposed seq would
use four men.
AS planned, the boys would
engage in bright chatter between
discs and the songs would &C
tually be introduced in song with
the four voices harmonizing in
manner similar to the Kay
kyser-Blue Barron idea.
The test of the program will
be made on WLIB during one of
the stations normal wax spinning
periods.

Having host of step and half
brothers and sisters, Leroy starts
his average day at 8 am. and
ends it usually at am. Recent
ly remarks were made about him
playing low-down blues mum

Judging from success OF his

Inc 54-year-old disc Jockey
has revolutionized the radio in
dustry for Negroes in Detroit.
Not only has his intimate. down
to-earth delivery touched, with
a mumble-tone, made advertisers
recognize the potential billion
dollar market of Negroes in the
Motor City, but il also response
bic for rival stations employing
race announcers and programs.
Role Is Not New
The popular disc jockey is not
new in radio. He broadcast over
Station WJBK for eight years
and a short time over Ann Ar
boris WHRV.
Born in Detroit, Leroy lived
the majority of his life in Ham
