WAL T0 BE PART OF COLUMBIA CHAIN Washington Station Joins Network of Eastern Broad- _casters November 1. BY MARTIN CODEL. NEW YORK, October 19.—Another nationai radio outlet for the great events occurring in the Nation’s Capital will be %ovlded by the addition of Station 'MAL, Washington, to the Columbia Broadcasting System's network. Ar- rangements have been completed for adding WMAL pexmlnently to the Co- lumbia chain to servé as its “key” tion for hookups out of Washington, 8s well as to furnish the chain's programs regularly to Washington listeners. Announcement to this effect was made today by Dr. Leon Levy, secretary- treasurer of the Columbia Broadcasting System. He stated that negotiations have been completed and a contract for- warded to M. A. Leese, owner of the Washington broadcasting station. The station probably will join the chain No- vember 1, he sald. Acquisition of WMAL is only part of the expansion plans of the Columbia Broldcutlnk System, according to Dr. Levy. The Columbia chain, only a little more than a year old, now boasts & membership of 21 independently owned stations. They cover most of the territory east of the Mississippi and ex- tend as far west as Kansas City. ‘Washington and nearby radio listen- ers, now only infrequently able to tune in Columbia programs from the member station at Baltimore, will be in a po- sition to select between the chain offer- ings of WRC and WMAL each evening and on Sundays. Station WMAL will be on the air with Columbla programs from two to three hours each evening. Besides Moran and Mack, some of the Columbia offerings are the orchestras led by Vincent Lopez, Arnold Johnson and Jack Schildkraut; the symphonic orchestra led by Howard Barlow, the United Military Band, the Sunday Cathedral hour from WOR, en- tertainment stars from the talking movies and talks about radio itself by Lée DeForest.
