C. announcer, has the distinction of being the only figure in radio who ever gave music lessons to royalty. The Prince of Wales was his pupil. And Keech was such a good instrugtor, the prince is regarded as one of the best ukulele players in England. A Keech was’ con- sidered one of Eu- rope’s ranking en- tertainers when the prince called upon him for instruction. He gained his repu- tation by leading the first zz-play- ing group into Paris shortly after the war, and, after starting the craze there, had ploneer- ed in jazz through most of the pleas- ure haunts abroad —Monte Carlo, Deauville, Nice Cannes snd Con- tantinople. Following his success on the Con- tinent, Keech came to New York, where he was intrigued by the American method of announcing radio programs. He saught an audition as an announcer at the N. B. C. headquarters, and was | given a job, Keech is a graduate of Franklin and Marshall College at Lancaster, Pi where he studled chemical engineering. ‘ (] : | TONIGHT-tunc in on i POND’S PROGRAM LEO REISMAN and his orchestra of the Ceatral Park Casino, New York, will play every Friday evening at 8:30 over WRC.

And when the armistice was signed, he elected to remain in Paris, and re-entered‘t..he entertainment field. * &% 'MAL and other Columbia stations have arranged to broadcast the special Memorial day services at the Washington Cathedral tomorrow | morning at 10 o'clock.
