With the radio forum as the WMAL headliner, WRC announces as its prin- cipal feature the radio debut of Bebe Daniels, screen star, whose hitherto un- suspfctrd singing talent marks her as a “talkie” find.

Miss Daniels was originally scheduled to make a special trip from the West Coast to New York for her radio pre- miere, but she has been forced to re- main in Hollywood to begin work on & new picture.
