n kk MILLION-DOLLAR PROGRAMS I Burns and Allen get a staggering sum for weekly antics on the air. Broadcasters pay thousands for direct hook-ups with Ethiopian battle-lines. Sport fans are happy, though Baer-Louis bout cost sponsor $27,500; World Series $500,000. "The O'Neills," popular units of Procter Gamble's costly program series. * SHOW these pages to your customers, Mr. Eadio Dealer. Or post them up in your show-window. For they will "get across" to customers or passers-by just what it is that you are really selling — the means for hearing the wonderful programs that are on the air. 16 Radio sets are not just items of furniture — not mere assemblies of metal and wire.
