Amateur radio help aids Peary dash dramatization
Amateurs aided Henry Lanier and Alan Bunce in clearing permission to impersonate Peary and Matt Henson for a radio dramatization of the pole dash. Bartlett and McMillen ships were contacted after weeks of shortwave calls to polar explorers. The week’s best picture is Dead End with Bogart and Trevor dominating. other notes include Fred Waring expanding to Chicago and previews of Madame X True Confessions and Accidents Will Happen.
