ENGINEERS The "forgotten men” of radio are the engineers and producers — the men respon¬ sible for getting the show on and off the air. Confined to a sound-proof control room, even the studio audience is unaware of their activities. Cliff Petersen, producer of the Breakfast Club since 1945, is one exception. He works on stage with the cast and contributes his rich tenor voice and Swedish accent to the goings-on. From 1936 to 1944 Cliff was the tenor lead of The Escorts and Betty. Because of his extra activities, Cliff has an associate producer in the control room. Maury Murray is the present associate. Louie Perkins, formerly with The Three Romeos, held the post from 1948 to 1951. Charley Butler was the first Breakfast Club engineer. There are two on duty today — Jimmy Daugherty and Harry Schu¬ macher. Others have been Bill Cummings, Kermit Slobb, Jimmy Lato, George Smith and Harry Eckland. Charley Butler, 1933-1936 i
