Little coin , was wagered on the outcome. Most bets were that Louis would .take care of his opponent, by the fifth round. Champ;; apparently sensed that the ■chips were, down on-: that ^result,' for he-went to work more, savagely than in the earlier sessions.

Mike Jacobs, being finally; convinced that higher, prices were not feasible. Gross was nearly $63;000.

The recent controversy between actors who want to crash, radio and the radio thai keeps saying it wants hew voices, - but won't have them when it can get therri, has interested me for .some , tirne now, since Jan. 8 to be exact, when Hobe Morrisoti had a little piece on 'Radio .Monop- oly' ' Variety. .: ;■.'-'''' •■ : : : There. ,. two., ways, ne . pointed out, of getting into radio, be a stage or film success, or,, be^ related to a sponsor.' ■ : ■'.■■;': .'>';.- .

Radio, a step-child so far as the- atre is cpnceVried, but the pampered offspring of commercial advertising^ has never had a proving grourid for talent. . Radio borrows from the-le- gitimate stage, films, the night clubs, the concert stage, vaudeville.- In fact, ■it took oyer what remained of vaude- : ville, bag arid baggage. ' Radio' does not take the tirne to develpp its own taleht. Time flies airid; it is. .valuable, Spriie mariufacr •turer. or somebody must pay for it; And'.if sornebody payslfor the talent, that uses ; up that time,: the : Jalent must have^already proved itself cap- able: of drawing and' holding the. at- tention ",Of; vast numbers: of : people.-. ' So, a lot of young people .who pps-. sibly. shbw every promise of being radio assets, biat haven't proved it because they haven't theu»chance and probably won't/get it in nine cases out.o.f 10, tell their stories to secre- taries in advertising agencies or just sit. admiring the decor modernC of the agency-' office,. ; The gbvernriient can -have its red tape, but radio is darned if it doesn't have Its "bottle- neck. ■■ The theatre- has always had its own training grounds . for talent. There was the road, stock, vauder ville, community and little theatres, and even Chautauqua. Films from the very beginning developed its own talerit. But .radio has got by with borrowing its talent, until there is every possibility that the. satura- tion point will be reached. . Radio has trained, no new comedians—thus the number of good radio comedians can be counted 6n the fingers of one hand with a finger or so missing.; It has brought forth no' great actor or actress, created no outstanding dra- i matic radio personality. Time will coriiei and I have little doubt of it, when every advertising, will see the need of having, its own repertory company, of taking an ac- tive interest in the creation and the development, of important radib. tal- ent, . : r . Until then ail the nice, new, lovely, fresh;, young, voices we' all-.'hear '■'■■far. mbred about, .but never get. the chance to listen to over the airlanes, will just call out in the wilderness pf metropolitan agencies' . outer saric- •tums.
