will enjoy it, too. As soon as the children have had a chance to get acquainted with it they'll love it. If advertisers are interested in a demonstration of a program which has adventure, excitement and dramatic suspense and nevertheless is not objectionable, we advise them to tune in to WILDERNESS ROAD. We rate it 100%. CELEBRITY NIGHT. Sponsored. XBC-Red Network. 10:30-11:00 P.M. E.S.T. Saturday. A light musical program featuring George Olsen and Ethel Shutta. Miss Shutta sings comedy songs as few others on the air can, and George Olsen's music is always pleasant. The guest star idea (for a change!) is employed and gives promise of a note of variety every week. After hearing the commercials on some toothpaste programs it is rather a shock to discover toothbrushes have anything to do with gleaming teeth but the idea is thoroughly rammed down one's throat on this program. Another case of a lost opportunity to win goodwill by restraint in advertising — but then we fear sponsors will never learn.
