The famous entertainer is being, featured with John B. Kennedy and; Jack Denny's orchestra on the half hour broadcasts from the NBC Radio City studios each week. Called back to New York from a vacation cruise on his yacht to sing on the revised Conoco program two weeks ago, Richman scored such & hit that he promptly was signed to continue throughout the remainder of 1934. Richman was suggested as the logi- cal star to head the new program when revision of that series first was contemplated, but the singer was at sea and no one knew what course the yacht was taking. Radio messages and seaplanes sought the entertainer for nearly a week before he finally was located off the coast of Florida, and it was not until the new series with Kennedy and Jack Denny’s or- chestra was under way that he reached New York. Singer, comedian, piano player and song writer, Richman has been in the public eyes and ears for a number of years. First attracting attention in vaudeville as a piano accompanist for Mae West and the Dolly Sisters, he later opened his own night club, the Club Richman in New York, and soon {became popular both with the pa- trons of the club and thousands of others who heard him over the air. |, George White heard him singing at ithe Club Richman one night and in 1926, 27 and ‘28 Richman was starred lin the “Scandals.” Later he went to Hollywood to be featured in “Put- tin’ on the Ritz,” and then returned to Broadway to star in the Ziegfield ‘Follies of 1931. Among the many successful songs he has written are “Walking My Baby Back Home” and “There Ought to be a Moonlight Sav- ing Time.” | Fri 3 7:00—RBreakfast Club $:00—Breen and De Rose 8:15—Clara, Lu and Em, Palmolive Peet 8:30—Biaquick Pem.—"Sam and His City Fellers” 8:45—Press Radio News Service g Colgate 0—Manchester Biscuit Pgm.

The theme music on the program is the finale of the first movement of a concerto, for piano, composed by Vic- tor Young and entitled “Pearls on Velvet.” “Pearls on Velvet” in its original form embraces three movements. The first movement is in two parts: the first in the form of an American song, the second the love theme. The sec- ond movement is entitled “Blues.” The third movement is properly en- titled “Pearls of Velvet.” from which the concerto derives its title. It in- cludes a number of unusual pianistic runs, In deference to the wishes of the program's listeners, Victor Young hereafter will play a few bars of the theme music between each number on the program. This presentation will vary with each intermediate use in order to lend the widest appeal and variance to the music. At one mo- ment it may be four violin strings; at another a harp; another time muted! saxophones will pick it up; and so on.| ‘Young has just completed the scor- ing and musical arrangements for “Frankie and Johnnie,” the colorful epic of America produced at the mod- ernized Biograph Studios, the center of Sn Picture production in New Raymond Knight Has A Versatile Array New York, May 5.—#)—Raymond Knight has one of the most versa- tile casts in radio in his new Cuckoo show.

That's the technique we're working on in the House Party show—and I think we're going to see a decided trend in air toward informal amusement, that lets the fan in on the inside, so to speak. “Being back before the microphone with the House Party show is a real vacation for me,” added Novis. “It's 100 per cent recreation after the hard grind of the Hollyood sound stages and the vaudeville circuit. But I don’t, regret all that hard work. It was in- me a chance to get acquainted with fans in all parts of the country and find out how I could please them best when I went back to the NBC micro- phone.” Meat Queries To Be Answered by Cudahy Many questions farmers have been asking concerning the meat indus- try will be answered by E.

THE CHILDREN’S SHOP & THE PEACOCK ART SHOP 411 Broadway Phone 716 f Sas3TOQ TApw IED WYNN STARTING HIS THIRD YEAR AS RADIO FIRE CHIEF Well-Known Fire Siren Over Ra- dio Tuesday Has Special Significance New York City, May 5—When Ed ‘Wynn, radio's Fire Chief, stepped to the microphone in the giant studio at Radio City for his broadcast over an NBC network including KFYR of Bismarck Tuesday, April 24, the long salute by the well-known fire siren had a special significance. Tt was a “red letter” day for Wynn, for he celebrated his second birthday as the Fire Chief of Radio, Later this year he will have two more import- ant anniversaries—the 48th of his birth and the 3ist of his stage career. More widely established as the Fire Chief since his first broadcast on April 26, 1932, than he was as oe “Perfect Fool” in his preceding yea on the stage, the lisping Fire Chiet of the air still tells friends, with a gig- gle and a shake of the head, that he is quite bewildered over his radio popularity and that he just can’t un- derstand it. America’s Fire Chief That Wynn has grown very close to the hearts of the vast radio audi- ence, however, is shown by his fan mail, which has grown steadily in volume. He is today an outstanding figure in the American scene, a be- loved clown whose name is on mil- lions of lips every day in farmhouses and backwoods hamlets where neither he ‘nor his stage characters have ever been seen. The mythical title of “Radio's Fire Chief” has been literally translated by mayors of cities all over the coun- try into a real honorary or deputy fire chief with hat and badge. With- out question, Ed Wynn is a member of more fire departments than any other person in the world. He car- ties in one huge case cards of many colors and sizes bearing the signatures of the great and near-great, and they empower Wynn to exercise vast au- thority in making arrests, putting out fires, stopping trains, examining prize- fighters and, most intriguing of all, to inspect beauty parlors. Broadcast During Tour But if radio has greatly widened Wynn's following, with it has come additional work and lots of it. Dur- ing his first year on the air, five months of the time was spent on the road with his musical comedy, “The Laugh Parade,” and the Tuesday night broadcast originated from the theatre where his stage production was playing. To work on the broad- casts outside New York the “four horsemen” associated with the air show—Graham McNamee, “straight man,” Don Voorhees, director of the Fire Chief band, Louis A. Witten, pro- gram announcer, and George W. Vos of the sponsor company—traveled ap- proximately 40,000 miles, most of them by airplane. Local charities benefited to the extent of thousands of dollars through nominal admissions to the broadcasts out of town, and Wynn was given civic receptions in every city. In almost every town, the may- or sponsored the charity radio show, although the newspapers, society leaders, welfare workers, and even newsboys assisted the cause. In his second year, Wynn took on tour @ condensed version of his mus- ical comedy, but instead of broadcast- ing from the stage of the theatre, “he closed his show on Tuesday evenings and journeyed to Radio City for the air presentation.

Due repairs were made and with slightly more than two hours left and about 115 miles t» cover, the orchestra left Minot, arriving here 20 minutes before time to go on the air. Henceforth Sam and his asso- clates will test their spare tires with extreme care. Wendell Hall Quit Breaking Ukuleles Chicago, May 5.—As the Red-headed Music Maker, Wendell Hall has been known to radio listeners for more than @ decade. Vaudeville audiences knew him as the Singing Xylophonist for some three years before he went into radio, but only one small town ever knew him as the One Man Musical Marvel, and that was only for a day. Wendell, whose program is heard over an NBC-WEAF network each Sunday at 8:45 p. m. (CST) was going under the Singing Xylophonist tag at the time. He decided, however, that What he needed was variety. So, for sweet variety'’s sake, he got up an act which was to feature him as the One Man Musical Marvey, playing ten instruments, successively. Hall opened in La Crosse, Wis., and for the first three shows the Marvel was & Wow. He was an even greater sensation the fourth time, for Wen- dell, with the daring typical of youth, decided to embellish the ukelele num- ber with a few deft twirls of the in- strument while playing it.
