. a = THURSDAY, SEPT. 10th, 1931 THE HAILE YBURIAN Page 3 C.G.E. Vagabonds New Broadcast On Air Weekly On Stations From Halifax to Vancouver with All Star Novelty Program All Canada will soon form the radio audience for the Canadian General Electric Company's week ly broadcast this year, when the General Electric Vagabonds go on the air over a national chain of 18 stations. The new C. G. E. radio hour, which was heard for the first time on September 8th over stations which extend from Hali- fax to Vancouver, is pretested program and is presented by a full orchestra with novelty feat- ures, and introducing from time to time many well-known and talented guest artists. Sponsorship of the chain broad- cast scheme by Canadian General Electric Company and its Canad- ian dealers results from the out- standing success of the broad- casts of other years, which were confined to Toronto stations a- lone. Now, with the larger hook- up, even finer programs have been arranged and no expense has been spared, in the acquirement of tal- ent and in the presentation of varied entertainment, to make the new C.G.E. coast-to-coast broad- cast something unique in Canad- jan radio. The General Electric Vagabonds will be on the air each successive \Tuesday evening and they will comprise an "all star" cast. Each program will be built up from popular dance numbers, and many well-known melodies by the Or- chestra, which is under the direc- tion of Ernest Dainty. The Vag- abond male chorus will be heard regularly in many stirring songs and a quartette and soloist will contribute further to the vocal end of the entertainment. The new C.G.E. radio hour has a valued background of research that ensures its quality. Months even years of intensive study of broadcasting and concert enter- tainment have gone into the plan- ning of this All-Canada program. For several years, Canadian Gen- eral Electric has been évperim- enting with broadcast advertising over Toronto stations. Steadily, persistently, the Company has carried on this study of the tech- nique of radio broadcast. By means of questionnaires sent out after two special broad- casts had been given in the early months of 1931, a basis was form- ed for deciding the nature of the various types of musical enter- tainment that would meet with the most generous approval.
