30 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, P.Cs FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1929. STATIONS TO OFFER CANNED PROGRAMS Electrical Reproduction Over Radio to Be Started Soon by 50 Broadcasters. * BY MARTIN CODEL. About 50 broadcasting stations throughout the United States and Can- ada are beginning this month to offer continuous half-hour programs of music and dramatic sketches through a new process of “transcription of electrical reproduction.” The programs, with the| usual announcer’s voice, are speciall imposed upon phonograph reco which are automatically changed with- out_perceptible interruption. The process is known as “So-a-tone.” for its promoter, Raymond Soat of cm- cago. It was invented and patented by Harold J. Smith, engineer for the company organized to exploit it. Both men were in Wash- ington this week to demonstrate the | method to members of Congress and the Federal Radio Commission. The possibilities of the new method of fur- nishing high-grade talent, particularly to small and isolated broadcasting sta- tions, left a deep impression. | The programs are utterly indistin- | guishable from the usual run of chain programs. The announcer's voice sounds. the same and the continuity of speech and song is worked out in the same manner. The sponsorship of those pro- grams already being _distributed ~for | broadcasting this month is much like | that of the chain programs heard every night from leading stations, indirect advertising being the commercial basis of the offering. Eliminates Phone Calls, ‘The chief advantage claimed for “So-a-tone” is that it eliminates the highly expensive telephone toll lines needed to link up_chain_broadcasting stations with the “key” station where the program is originating. It also makes available to stations of any size and situated anywhere a_high qualily | of entertainment, for the Federal Radio Commission has already recognized that “canned music” can be transmitted practically as well as studio music and sometimes is superior in quality, by virtue of the advantage of trial and | Programs prepared by the Associated Pre: error in recording. Full-length mdio continuities broad- cast from records or from the film talkies have been heralded for some months, but the Soat project is the first attempt to introduce them. The ef- fects upon chain broadcasting are prob- lematical. The question whether the public will accept “transcription by electrical reproduction” is answered by the promoters with a statement that| only the best talent will be employed for these continuities, to the end that they will become popular features of the air. The Federal Radio Commission about two months ago took the onus out of the so-called “canned music” order by amending it to provide that “where a recording or electrical transcript is made exclusively for broadcasting pur- poses and is neither offered nor in- tended to be offered for sale to the public the words ‘phonograph record’ may be replaced by any phrase which accurately describes such transcription and which is of such a nature as not to deceive or tend to deceive the public concerning the character of the repro- duction broadcast.” Stations Using Srvice. ‘Tie recorded continuities are pro- diged by the Brunswick-Balke-Collen- _#r Co. The apparatus is being in- stalled first in some of the country's leading stations. They will get the “first yuns.” Later installation in the smaller stations will bring to them the new re- corded programs just as motion picture houses get their film reels. The first station to broadcast one of these pro- 5 was the pioneer transmitter at Pittsburgh, KDKA. Station KYW, Chicago, has also introduced it. Following is a partial list of the sta- tions which have arranged for the service: WBZA, Boston; WCAU, Phil- adelphia; WSYR, Syracuse; WMBO, Auburn, N. Y.; WSCH, Portland, Me.; ‘WOBU, Charleston, W.
