AUDIENGE SHOW “NSIE” OF ADID Typical Studio at Auditorium Feature at Hospital Fund Benefit Performance. Radio broadcasters, who have been appearing before the microphone at ‘the two blg broadcasting stations in Washington, joined forces last night in a consolidated studio and went on the air en .masse, this time to an audience limited to the number who could be crowded into the Washing- ton Auditorfum, and not the limitless audlence, the “Invisible audience,” about which radio speakers tell us. The scores of entertainers whose voices have become familiar to Washington listeners-in, became em- bodied on the stage of the auditorium last night at the first- radlo revue staged for the benefit of the Wash- ington radio hgspital fund, and the general public was allowed behind the scenes in a typical broadcasting studio with all the glamor and thrill Glass for Windshields Cheerful {[Transposing a col that comes to the one who sees the inside of the magio phenomena of broadcasting for the first time. The announcers of the WCAP and WRC, whose. volces are famliliar to thou- sands of Washingtonians, announced the artists with all the atmosphere surrounding the broadcasting of the revue as if it were actually “on the air.” The familiar “Please stand by” and the “One moment, please,” came on the air of the auditorium from the big amplifiers stretching out from the stage just as if the announcer were miles away, as he usually is, from the home circles of radio fans. Program in Three Parts. The program of the revue was staged in three parts, the first part the general appearance of a broad- casting studlo with most of the vocal artists who have appeared before the Washington “mikes” doing their bit. Act 2 saw the.three dance orchestras who_have appeared on the air—the La Java Cafe Orchestra, the Ward- man Park Orchestra and the Le Par- adis Orchestra blaring out their syn- copations, while the entertainers who had appeared in the previous scene sa8 at tables arranged as in a cafe. The third act was put on by the three large service bands—the Marine Band, the Navy Band and theé Army Band, led, respectively, by Capt, Willlam H. Santelmann, Charles Benter and Wil- liam J. Stannard. whose names are all famillar to Washington radio fans included Hook Kennedy, in Scottish songs; Louis Floor Wax and Polishes Interiors lorless interior into an atmosphere of cheer and charm very often calls for no more than a little paint and deftness with a brush. {[We can’t furnish the latter, but we can, and do, supply the supplies at right kind of paint Specially Low Prices HUGH REILLY CO.
