CHAINS WILL USE FARWEST TALENT roadcasters Arrange to Carry Programs From Growing Movie Colony. I i i BY MARTIN CODEL grams from the American far West to the rest of the country. Many Western programs, embracing the talent in the growing colony of artists lured here by the talking movies or the vaunted climate, are to be offered soon to the radio listeners of the land. Not only the formation of a new national chain in the West, but the plans of the two existing Nation-wide chains, indicate recognition of the fact that many programs must hereafter originate out here, particularly in the studios along the Pacific Coast. Holly- wood alone, having attracted so many of Broadway's stage stars, is now claim- ing to be second only to Broadway as the amusement center of the United States. The Columbia broadcasting system’s affliation with Paramount already has led to an announcement that a regular weekly hour of Paramount talking pic- ture talent will be carried on the Na- tional network. The National Broad- casting Co. has a Pacific Coast chain ‘which it can use to originate programs for Middle West and Eastern consump- tion. Two such programs are now staged in San Francisco each week. KNX May Be Key Station. Columbia will soon have to find new station outlets for Western broadcast- ing. In view of the organization of the American Broadcasting Co. chain, now extending as far East as Chicago and aspiring to broadcast on a national scale, the Linden group will end its affiliation with Columbia at the end . of this year. Sam Pickford, Columbia’s |vice president,.who was here several | weeks ago, has lined up new members .of the chain and it is not unlikely #hat KNX, which is on the Paramount (ot at Hollywood, will be the Western key station here for Columbia next year.
