Highlights For Thursday, Oct. 27 PROM the Village Barn which is, as you might suspect, a Greenwich Village night spot, Mutual has Carl Deacon Moore's music coming to you six nights a week, beginning tonight. . . . Carl has a small band, but to be good enough for the Village, it has to be plenty hot, so if you like torrid rhythms, listen in. . . . The MutuaVs School ol the Air program for the morning is composed of "Famous Farmers" at 10:00 and "The Human Side of Uncle Sam" at 10:15. ... If this were income-tax time they'd have a hard time convincing anybody that Uncle Sam has a human side. ... If 'you're looking forward already to Saturday and its football games, you won't want to miss Eddie Dooley tonight at 6:30 on NBC-Red, with a re-broadcast which reaches the West Coast at 9:30. Eddie's aim is to have all the latest dope on the teams which will take the field day after tomorrow. . . . The Columbia Workshop program is on the air Thursdays now, at 1 0:00 — but so, alas, is Bing Crosby, and frankly the chances are that most listeners, faced with the choice, will go for Crosby with a rush. . . . Until the Town Meeting oi the Air program returns to NBC-Blue, the Toronto Symphony is on that network at 9:00. Carl Deacon Moore is the bandleader at the Village Barn, heard tonight on MBS. Highlights For Thursday, Nov. 3 Ned Wever is Anthony Hale, the district attorney, in Her Honor, Nancy James — CBS. UT ITH the smell of burning * leaves in the air, the pumpkin on the vine, and turkeys in the barnyard looking apprehensive, you know that it's fall. But NBC has still another seasonal note today, in the Cornhuskers Derby, coming from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. In case you never heard of one, a Cornhuskers Derby is exactly that — a race to see who can husk the most corn in the shortest time — and the winner of the yearly event is quite a guy around his home state. . . . Emil Coleman, society bandleader, moves into the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York tonight, with broadcasts coming to your loudspeaker over CBS. Coleman is playing in a different ballroom from that occupied by Benny Goodman — just so that the Waldorf patrons who like swing can have it, while those who like sweet can be satisfied too. . . . America's Town Meeting of the Air, one of radio's most vital and stimulating programs, returns to NBC-Blue tonight at 9:30. ... A good pair of co-stars and Barbara Weeks and Ned Wever, of Her Honor, Nancy James, on CBS today and every day except Saturday and Sunday at 12:15. Barbara plays the title role, and Ned plays Anthony Hale, the fighting district attorney. Highlights For Thursday, Nov. 10 T^ULL of good resolutions about A not letting any movie producer talk him into making another picture, Rudy Vallee is in Hollywood tonight, doing his first program from there at 8:00, E.S.T. He'll stay in the film capital until shortly after the first of the year, filling dance dates — and, you can't tell, those resolutions might break down and he'll make a picture after all. . . . Guy Lombardo starts another fall and winter season in the Grill Room of New York's Roosevelt Hotel tonight. You'll hear him, as usual, doing his sustaining broadcasts over CBS. ... At 9:00 Major Bowes and Good News of 1939 will both present their entertaining shows. ... At 7:00, Ray Heatherton on CBS, the Easy Aces on NBCBlue, and Amos 'n' Andy on NBC-Red all compete for your attention, and whichever way you twist your dials you can't go wrong. CBS is doing right by young Heatherton in giving him a nightly period of his own — but — wouldn't it be a good idea to supply an orchestra instead of an organ for his accompaniment? Some people, a good many people in fact, don't like organ music much. ... At 7:15, on CBS, George McCall supplies you with the latest news about Hollywood stars. Rudy Vallee starts broadcasting from Hollywood tonight — on NBC-Red at 8:00. Highlights For Thursday, Nov. 17, 24 This is Thanksgiving Day, and here's the star who is the biggest news of all. 1UOVEMBER 17: If you live ' on a farm, there are a couple of programs you shouldn't miss, on the air today and every Jay except Saturday and Sunday. One's the Farm and Home Hour, at 12:30, and the other's the Goodyear Farm Radio News, at 1:15 — both on NBC-Blue. The Goodyear quarter-hour is really part of the Farm and Home Hour, in fact — the last fifteen minutes of it, cut off by itself and directed at the farmers of different regions, dealing with local problems. iVovemoer 24: Nobody should have to be told that this is Thanksgiving Day, and the real grand old bird pictured at the left. May every one of you Almanac readers have one! . . . All the networks, of course, will have special Thanksgiving Day broadcasts — speeches, sermons, concerts and football games, which is enough of a variety to please every taste. . . . As to football, when the last cheer has died down, Mutual has a gala gridiron spree at 9:30 P.M., called We Want a Touchdown. It features George Trevor, noted football expert, who reviews the day's games and quizzes the audience on football. . . . Erskine Hawkins band moves into the Alamo Supper Club in San Antonio. 48 star of the proceedings is the (For Friday's Highlights, please turn page)
