But did it raise a finger to enforce the ban? No prompt­ ing, please.” _ • The FCC announces that it will receive reactions from the radio stations. (All radio stations glutted with jackpots will kindly submit their reactions in 50 words or less, stating clearly why they like ap­ plesauce. All letters remain the property of the FCC. Ed. note.) We shall see what we shall see. Despite all federal laws and com­ mission rules, radio constitutes the greatest collection of raffles, lot­ teries, sweepstakes, bingo games and prize contests on earth. More people gamble on the airwaves in one night than at the race tracks and gambling houses in a year. You twist a dial with the same feeling you get when you pull the lever on a slot machine. Nothing is missing ex cept the three-plum symbol and the grinding noise. It has reached a point where a man tuning in doesn't know whether he is listening to a radio program or getting a key to Fort Knox. _• R E G ’L A R FE LLE R S By Gene Byrnes I • _a That about covers everything from boxtops and mystery voices to slogans and song identifications. And if the FCC is on the level, it means it is abandoning its own “Doubletalk or Nothing” program, a feature shared by the radio sta­ tion owners. DRIVE-IN THEATER, REGGIE 1------ r r — ^ x Y O U STAY H°ME J L w S M U T T A N D JEFF The big radio question today Is whether the melody being played by the Federal Communications com­ mission is “The Baloney Waltz," "Doubletalk, How I Love Youl” or “This Time I’m Leveling.” • It has (hang onto your hats!) dis­ covered that there are prize con­ tests on the air and that they are Illegal under one of its own rules adopted 15 years ago and based on a United States postal law not far from 100 years old! And it says It is going to act to stop the give away programs now flooding America and developing a race of free mink coat, ice box, bungalow, and dough- bag collectors. The Federal Communications orchestra and the National Associa tion of Broadcasters brass band will now play a selection. Listen carefully and see if you can identify it. If it turns out to be ‘‘I’m Sincere with You My Dear," you win two jet planes, a three piece mink suit, $50,000 in fresh meat, six months fun in the U. S. mint and an extra patty of butter. a • • 8EWINQ CIRCLE NEEDLEWORK 5J# Sooth Wells SL Chicago 7, 111. N o _ ______________ .
