Page 4 THE BATTALION TUESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 17, 1944 W T A W Batt Chat “Captain Midnight” Series The stage is now set for what promises to be the most exciting succession of broadcasts ever pre sented via the Blue Network’s Cap tain Midnight series. Captain Midnight and his trust ed lieutenants of the Secret Squad ron are in the foothills of the Andes where they were to meet a British agent who carried infor mation of worldwide consequence. While waiting for his arrival, Cap tain Midnight and his cohorts have witnessed many mysterious events which lately have culminated in an attack by blood-thirsty natives. What Captain Midnight* doesn’t know, but will soon discover, is that he and his Secret Squadron have blundered into a section where German Junkers are laying pre cise plans to launch and win World War III. The Captain Midnight series, starring Ed Prentiss in the title role, is broadcast over the Blue Network Mondays through Fridays at 5:45 p.m. CWT. Quiz Kids Saddened On the train that carried them home from their war bond tour of the Northwest, the Blue Network’s Quiz Kids met an Army lieutenant and his wife. “We heard you at Fort Lawton,” the lieutenant said. “Our little girl was so excited. She sat in the front row and got your autographs . . . That night she was stricken with food poisoning. She died four days later. We have her body in the baggage car. . . . She would be thrilled if she knew she was on the same trip with you Quiz Kids”. Usually gay and frolicsome, the Quiz Kids were a saddened lot of youngsters during the rest of the trip. “My True Story” A man who struck oil lost his sense of true human values. It was not until he lost his wealth that he realized what was what. The Blue Network’s My True Story, Thurs day, October 19, at 9:00 a.m., CWT, describes the career of a man who went through this experience. “Lady Luck” is the title. Sam to Manhattan for Research Sam “Romeo” Cowling, “the mental bankrupt” of the Blue Net work’s Breakfast Club, will spend this next week in New York in search of new material for his fam ous “Sam’s Almanac.’" First stop on his schedule will be Grant’s Tomb to see who is buried there.

These events un fold on the Green Hornet thriller, Tuesday, October 17 at 6:30 p.m., CWT, over the Blue Network. Britt Reid, whose job on the “Sentinal” is common knowledge, and whose identity as the Green Hornet is not, rescues the steel magnate from the pair (who have kidnapped him with intent to mur der if he did not “pay off”) and VETERINARY STUDENTS We have VET BOOKS and INSTRUMENTS We can save you money on stainless steel and chrome items.

A tea party with the very best people lightly passing the time of day turns into something sinister when the female guest-of-honor falls on the floor and dies, during the It’s Murder Mystery drama, heard Thursday, October 19, at 6:30 p.m., CWT, over the Blue Network. Since the lady was very rich and nearly everyone at the party was a relative of hers, all have mo tives and all are suspects—even Rex Starr, retired actor and ama teur criminologist, and his Broad way columnist niece, Joan Adams. Rex solves the crime in an aston ishing manner. Beauty Seeks Mate Everybody in her set realized that the beauteous Louisa had set her cap at the right angle. But there was doubt as to whether she was setting it for the right man. And therein lies the hilarity in the Blue Network’s Listening Post story of Thursday, October 19, at 9:45 a.m., CWT. The presentation is a dramati zation of “I’m Going to California” by Cliff Farrell, which appears in the Satuday Evening Post issue of October 21.

The new head also said a balanced athletic program was in the making. He said sports that they were unable to give at tention to in the past would now get the needed help. He expressed his hope of securing better facilities for the teams in their dressing rooms and the addition of some needed public conveniences around the stadium. Dean Kyle served as chairman of the Athletic Council the first year he was connected and he de veloped the best athletic program in the South. Dean Kyle has been chairman and a member of the council off and on up to 1932. He has been chairman since 1932 ex cept for one year and that year he was not a member of the coun cil. In 1937 he was drafted to the chairmanship of the Athletic Coun cil and has served efficiently and faithfully ever since then. Dean Kyle organized the most efficient and economic Athletic Department in the entire South. So the man that has taken his place will certainly DR. N. B.
