The radio announcer has his troubles, according to
H. W. Arlin, of KDKA, Pittsburgh, Pa., and all of
them do not arise from static and other phenomena
of radio sending. His audience is a big one and the
announcer receives a multiplicity of requests, the most
of which he necessarily must ignore.
Radio, according to Mr. Arlin, has discovered how
many people really love good music and the vast
number indifferent to the quality of the musical pro-
grams.
"A lack of appreciation for the success of artists
or for the repertoire used by them sometimes results
in requests which provoke a smile from the person to
whom they are addressed," said Mr. Arlin. "When
presenting a program at KDKA recently, Mrs. Chris-
tine Miller Clemson, who before her marriage was
one of the country's contraltos and concert singer
with an enviable record, was requested to sing the
jazz number, 'Red Hot Mamma.'
"Perhaps one of the most common requests re-
ceived is that requesting an artist to sing a particular
number. In spite of the fact that there are thousands
of songs, a good many listeners cannot quite under-
stand why the singer does not have the particular
number they request. Song pluggers are required to
sing 'Arias' and grand opera stars are requested to
sing jazz numbers by the well meaning audience. It
also happens quite often that in spite of the fact that
we receive hundreds of requests for numbers during
a particular evening some well-meaning individual is
at a loss to know why his or her particular request
was not granted."
VARIETIES IN IVORY.
"Tusks" and "teeth" are used in the trade when
tusks are alluded to, although the real grinders of
the elephant are of little or no value. The tusks
vary in size from two pounds to a hundred pounds
each. They come packed in gunnies or cases and
not infrequently are shipped loose with the address
painted on the tusk.
