Heinl Radio News Service

too, could play several weeks on one station before moving on to the next station in the circuit.
With the few stations currently in operation, video to¬ day is in much the same situation as the oldtime vaude circuits, when travel difficulties made it at least partially necessary for performers to stay in one spot for a number of weeks. * * * *
Although establishment of the vaude circuits and stock companies will probably have to wait until the network can begin its full five-station operation, Wade is already laying the ground¬ work for the idea by priming some of the oldtime stars for feature television roles.
Victory In Georgia Has Hitlerian Tinge Evidenced
(Drew Pearson, Washington Merry-Go-Round)
Like Hitler also, Talmadge has a great radio technique. Carmichael had none. A total of 125 Georgia newspapers were against Talmadge, while only seven were for him. But his radio appeal won out in the end.
Pipe Dreams vs . Realism
T7' Variety-^
Much publicity has been given in the press to the "res¬ ervation" of FM wavelengths for returning soldiers. Nobody will object to the "good intentions" behind such a policy, but more and more realistic observers are wondering if these "promises" aren’t more dangerous than helpful. Where it is being asked with in¬ creasing pointedness is the average GI or even a group of them going to get the $25,000 to erect antenna and studios, and after that the $25,000 a year (or make your own guess) necessary to pro¬ gram and operate an FM station for an unknown number of years until the station may accent may start paying off.
Invitation to take out an FM license may sound like a generous remembrance of the draftee now back in civilian garb. But is it really doing him a favor, assuming he has limited knowledge of radio competition, limited financial resources, and ideas which may be more romantic than down to cases?
Maybe this is the sort of question that cannot be cate¬ gorically answered. But still there are broadcasters around who are wondering out loud whether the GI who is lightly encouraged to dream of a place in radio isn’t being handed an opium pipe.
