Folks Behind The Microphone BY THE RADIO EDITOR. | OW David Ross, radio announcer, who also writes and reads poe- | try for broadeast purposes, won the friendship of Heywood Broun, columnist, is told by Co- Jumbia's information writers, Ross is but five feet, five inches tall, while Broun towers over him to much greater One night, the story goes, during the course of one of his informal talks be- fore the microphone, Broun childed ra- dio announcers for their almost “pain- fully precise diction.” He grinned glee- fully at Ross as he talked. At the end of the broadcast, Ross stepped to the microphone, assumed & | hardboiled tone of voice and ended the program by announcing: “La-dees and gents, dis is de way Hey- wood Broun would like us radio an- | nouncers tuh talk, and dis concludes his | broadcast dis evenin'.

He served as a reporter on a small town newspaper, played stray parts in musical comedies, wrote advertising copy and book revicws, was a teacher in an | orphan asylum and secretary to a Rus- | | sian baroness. At college he studied liberal arts, then agriculture subjects, serving as waiter at campus eating places and writing poetry to help pay expenses, but never finished any course His start in radio was as a dramatic reader at Station WGBS. It was an odd job, but his voice attracted some | executive and Ross was engaged as an | announcer. He has been with Columbia | for two years.
