INNIE' SHAND, a l4-year-old The Microphone Conn., is going to have one of the big moments of his young life tonight when he appears as the guest of Singin’ Sam during his broadcast over the Columbia Broadcast- ing System at 8:15 p.m. Sam believes that the youngster has possibilities. He is most emphatically not an infant prodigy, Sam explains. Vinnie will sing one song during the program, “Roll On You Mississippi, Roll on.” by singing for neighborhood and com- munity gatherings, gaining considerable local fame. His first big chance came when he was singing in the audience of a Stamford theater during the organ period. The manager of the theater heard Vinnie's voice above all the rest and liked it so much that he offered him a job singing. * K K % HE SHADOW,” radio mystery character, again will be heard tomorrow evening, at 10.00 pim., . when the first of a new series of half-hour mystery dramas. ) Scotch-Irish boy from Darien, | Vinnie started his vocal career | he introduces “Dynamiie Moll,” | ‘ Britons Designing Transmitters. | Two short-wave transmitters of per- }hlpfl 20,000 watts each are being de- | stened by the British Broadcasting Cor- | poration engineers for installation at | Daventry, whence they will transmit | British programs to the dominions and colonies on a multiplicity of wave lengths in the empire broadcasting plan recently inaugurated. | | Tune In Tonight Station WMAL Time 7:30 o’clock Rudolph Friml and the “LAND O’ FLOWERS” Flowers: —for the sick —the shut-in —congratulations —thank you —and all other | occasions | ORDER TODAY!
