Radio Is On
The Upswing
Who listens to r oat° any
more? The answer at the mo-
ment, according to the cotinVy-
Wide business-analysis firm of
Sindlinger & Co,, is 6 million
more people than, have been
watching TV,
Is this a summertime freak or
growing trend? There is no
great meeting of minds in the
industry on that answer, but
here is what has been happen-
ing:
Since 1948, when radio was
suppoaed to have started dying
while its kid brother, TV, was
growing, the number of radio
stations increased 64 per cent
(present number: 3,74.4).
At the end of *Tune, '70 million
people were listening to radio
and the same number were
watching TV. 'By July 20, rattle
had picked up 2 million fans
and TV had dropped 4 million.
Fourteen per cent more net-
work radio time was sold in the
first quarter o fails year than
the same quarter of 1956.
The most significant develop-
ment in radio, many people in
the industry believe, is the
growth of the independent sta-
tions. They give the local listen-
ers a rich diet, of listening mat-
ter related to his local interests,
which the chains cannot do.
Local news is reported on the
air almost as fast as it happens.
Important, too, is the fact that
local people in large numbers
go on the air free, rather than
as paid performers, A local sta-
tion can thrive without spend-
ing very much money. The net-
works have their high-priced disk
jockeys, but the local stations
are saturated with low-priced
jockeys,
Television itself has contribut-
ed to the rise in the radio busi-
ness, local or network, trade ex-
perts believe. Joel Culligan, head
of NBC radio, points out that
advertisers who spend large
sums on TV, supplement this ad-
vertising with the inexpensive
and much more numerous "spots"
available to them on radio — and
the more they deal in TV, the
more they supplement on radio.
CBS's head of radio programm-,
ing Howard Barnes, makes the
same point: "A single shot on
TV needs to be backed by
widespread coverage on radio."
But Barnes and Culligan dis-
agree on the significance of ra-
dio's current recovery, Culligan
feels radio's popularity will con-
tinue in the fall. -"A summer
fluke," Barnes calls it. "To say
radio listeners will outnumber
TV watchers would be foolish,"
• Robert Eastman, 'President of
ABC radiofi attributes the med-
ium's present upswing in part to
"showmanship," and adds: "Ifm
in favour of stunts," He plans,
in addition, to help the present
trend' along with plenty of live
music. "Soaps and variety are
out," he says. "What the house-
wife wants is to hear music while
she's working. Raclie is the only
medium that can offer it." He
also has great faith in. "gazinkus"
— a kind of magnetism, F.D.R.
had it. Billy Graham has it."
Another who seems to have
it is the star of CBS's new, talked-
from the water, plastered with
mud but gloriously happy: At
one time every district had its
,'ole swimmin' hole'. The holes
are still there—polluted with
waste and foul refuse—and the

right, for children and clear;cool
water belong together.'

"Dear Anne Hirst: I have
heard girls who learned how
much they loved a man only
when they lost him, but I never
believed it was true. Now I
know, and how unhappy I am!
"Nearly two years ago I met
this boy, and, we went regularly
together until two months ago.
Then I called it quits, and now
I miss him so much I am in a
state of collapse. Finally , he
came around and I was apolo-
getic and as nice as I could be,
but he said pointblank that he
didn't love me as he did. . . If
it was real love in the first
place, couldn't he love me now
and forgive me?

* It would be in poor taste to

Q. Do you think it's proper
for one girl to borrow another
girl's lipstick?
A. While this is frequently
done, I still think that lipstick is
just a bit too personal an item
to borrow.
Q. Is it necessary that the
acknowledgment of an invitation,
when either accenting or declin-
ing, be definite, or is it all right
for one to say, "I may be able
to come"?
A. By all means, be definite
when acknowledging an invita-
tion — either "yes" or "no".
A Prince Starts.
QardinSchool,
As any parent knows, it is
difficult enough. these days to
educate a child for normal,
atomic-age living, laut how to,
educate a boy to be a king?.
Britain's royal family gave part
of its answer last week. E ight..
year-old Prince Charles will
leave Hill Muse day school in
London to become a boarder at
Cheam, a 311-year-old school .of
90 bays, 50 miles west of Londor,.
this fall,
Cheam was not a surprising
choice as Charles' prep sehoel.
In 1914; Prince Louis of Batten-,
berg, then First Sea. Lord, was
impressed one day by the ime
peceble manners of two young
midshipmen. "Where were you
educated?" he asked them.
"Chews), sir," they replied, and
Louis told them: "Then that shall
be the school for my son."
Philip Mountbatten, Louis'
grandson, went to Cheam from
1930 to 1933 and, has been de-°
termined to send his son there
from the time Charles was born.
At first, palace advisers object-
ed, preferring that Charles have

clamp on names of Cheam stud-
ents and alumni, and then by
losing themselves, in the wilds of
the Scottish moors. With details
unavailable, the British press
assumed and reported that there
were so many lords on the
school's roster that no black-
board was big enough to chalk
up their collective titles,
Actually, this was not the case.
Cheam mixes sons of bluebloods
and ordinary businessmen indis-
criminately, so long as they meet
scholastic requirements. It blends
old-school-tie tradition with
modernity (caning only for
serious offences). Its alumni end
up in, industry and civil service
as often as they wind up in the
Hose of Lords.
Charles will share a dormitory
with eight other boys and will
sleep in an iron bedstead, He
will rise at 7, make his bed, clean
his shoes, attend classes, play
football and cricket.
While such a regime is unlike-
ly to satifsy such critics of
royalty as Lords Altrincham and
Londonderry who complain that
his education won't expose him
to boys from all walks of life,
it is, as The Daily Express called
it, "half a revolution". Prince
Charles will be undergoing the
nearest approximation to a
middle-class education ever ar-
ranged by the British monarchy,

town or country district—east,
west, north, south—what reason

I always wonder—still more so
now, since we have been on the
move ourselves, and find our-
selves continually bumping into
people who are, or will be, mov-
ing to the very district we have
left. When we went back to
Halton during the Federal elec-
tion we passed a hundred-acre
farm about three miles from
Ginger Farm on which had been
built, among the trees, a very
lovely modern home, with a
grand view across the country.
The owners, we were told, came
from "somewhere near Toronto".
I forgot about the place until
one day last week. At that time
I was exploring an out-of-the-
way residential area near here—
as I often do—and noticed a par-
ticularly attractive house for
sale in a wooded section. I
stopped and "spoke to the lady
of the house and discovered
they were selling as they had,
bought a hundred acres in Halton
and had built a house that was
even now ready and waiting for
them. The one we had seen, no
less! Of course, I don't know
their reasons for moving but I do
knows this—their tax bill for
a hundred acres will be less than
what they are -paying for their
present house, Besides that, as
they don't intend to farm there
is nothing to stop them selling
off acre, or five acre lots from
their property for country homes.
That is just one "moving"

seems to be the greatest single

though any easement that coulees
