38 LIFE OF WAGNER RADIO FEATURE WRC Will Broadcas{ Drama- tization—Amelia Earhart Will Talk on Aviation. A dramatization of the life of Richard ‘Wagner, one of the most dynamic fig- ures in the history of musical art, will | be broadcast during the Eveready hour tonight over WRC and associated Na- tional Broadcasting Co. stations. A cast of prominent radio stars will take part in the production, which will cpen in Paris, where the composer had gone with the hope of having his works produced. The musical background will be provided by an orchestra of symphonic proportions, directed by Na- thaniel Shilkret, Amelia Earhart to Talk. Amelia Earhart, the first woman to span the Atlantic in the air, also will be heard over WRC tonight in the aviation serial, “Roads of the Sky.” She will speak on “Woman's Influence on Air Transport Luxuries.” The usual array of musical features round out WRC's program. These in- clude the Prophylactic program, the Clicquot Eskimos, the Michelin Men and the Radio-Keith-Orpheum hour. Four numbers frym the musical show “Oh Kay" are featured in the Pro- phylactic program, while the Eskimos will play six popular dance tunes, be- tween which will be sandwiched a banjo solo by Harry Reser and a vocal solo by Tom Stacks. The Michelin s cialty will be “The Hymn to the from Rimsky-Korsakoff's opera, ‘Golden Cockerel.” Della Baker, soprano, will be the guest soloist with the Fada Orchestra in its weekly concert tonight over WMAL and other Columbia Broadcasting Sys- tem stations, The orchestra will play a group of classical selections, the fea- ture of which will be Brahms' “Hun- garian Dance, No. 5.” Miss Baker's se- lections have not been announced. “A Story in a Song.” “A Story in a Song” and an organ re- cital by Jesse Crawford are among WMAL's other major musical attrac- tions. The once popular “I Ain't Got Nobody" will be the theme of the “Story in a Song.” Crawford’s program fea- tures “Schubertina.” a collection of melodies from Schubert's works. Henry W. Draper, supervising princi- pal of the first division of the District Public Schools, will speak tonight at ‘WOL on “The Value of the Parent. ‘Teacher Movement to the Teacher.” The Smith musicale and a recital by Estelle Hunt Dean, soprano, are the musical features. WJSV's principal speaker will be Representative Abernethy of North Carolina. The station’s musical pro- gram includes concerts by the Columbia ‘Trio and the Silver String Revelers and a recital by Everett Stevens, boy planist. AVIATION THRILLS WORKERS IN RADIO Enthusiasm for Flying Induces Many to Abandon Broadcasting for Adventures in Air. “The NEWARK, N. J. (#).—Aviation, al- though a practical aid to the work which is their livelthood, is furnishing a modern thrill to a group of Newark radio men. Not only has the enthusiasm for fly- ing taken man employes of the Kolster Radio Corporation into the clouds, but several young women employed at the factory, a stone’s throw from the New- ark Metropolitan Airport, have joined the company's group of embryonic avia- tors and are taking instructions. After work the sky over the factory is dotted with student planes. Leading the group of flyers are Lieut. Jack Hayward of the Army Reserve Corps, L. T. Breck, sales manager and formerly of the Naval Reserve Flying Corps, and James A. Hughes. Haywood has 1,300 air hours to- his credit. Once his motor stalled 14,000 feet above earth, forcing him to glide 15 miles to a landing on a pile of bowlders. Injuries to himself and plane resulted. Breck has had 1,200 flying hours and has used the airplane to attend sales meetings in various parts of the coun- try, such as attending one in New York on Saturday, another in Kansas City on Monday and a third in New Haven, | Conn., on Tuesday. Hughes comes from a family of fly- ers. He is said to have purchased the first plane sold over the counter of a department store. He assembled it and went on a “barnstorming” tour of the East. Although Hughes has been in sev- eral crashes, he escaped unhurt. Besides the thrills and training that aviation is giving these radio-minded men, their sky capers are expected to be of value in the development of radio for use in aviation. BROADCAST' FOR ISLES.
