of stage-fright when Rrst confronting a radio microplume So says George Engles who as managing director of the National Broadcasting and Concert Bureau comes Into contact with hundred of broadcasting artists "1 have seen singers who went through their operatic and concert debuts without a quiver actually turn pale and tremble at their pre mere performances In a broadcasting studio" Engles declared the sight of a brilliant Super-critical audience at the Metropolitan or Carnegie Hall served crly to stimulate them lire prospect of singing for an invisible audience or many millions caused acute nervousness and apprehension completely poised and self-possessed a person as Walter Dam rosch veteran of many years of concert hall appearances had a bad case of stagefrlght at hts first broadcasting program probably the only experience of the sort during his long career But It look him only a short time to accustom himself to the technique of the microphone quickly acquired the correct perspective on his radio audience visualizing his listeners not as one great audience of 60000000 but as little groups of three or four people gathered together In their homes He adapted his broadcasting to meet this condition Now he Is consider-rd one of the finest of broadcasting artists" Ollier great personalities have not been able to adapt themselves to broadcasting quite so readily Engles of tills business will consist of replacements One Influence credited with adding Impetus to the Interest in radio is politics The fact that big parties have made plans to make part of the campaign effort through broadcasting Is thought to have given rise to an Increase tn the demand for get ft -Both Band Cleddes executive vice president of Uie Radio Manufacturers' Association and

the paucity of channels the commission Is of the opinion that the limited facilities for broadcasting should not be shared with stations which give the sort of service which is readily available to

that a singer would be a success on the concert stage Some of the most popular radio artists may never become great concert artists They have personality that gets over the ar but not over the
