WINX's Grynwich

Discontented radio listeners everywhere could take heart last week from the story of big, deliberate William Grynwich, a music lover in the War Department in Washington, D.C. For a year on his favorite radio program, the Symphony Hour over Washington's WINX, he patiently suffered the inanities of a musically illiterate announcer. When the announcer finally played a recording of the second part of a Hungarian rhapsody before the first, Listener Grynwich lumbered into resentful action.

He telephoned WINX and got the announcer himself on the phone. This was not very satisfactory. So Grynwich beefed heavily to WINX's program director, Sam Lawder. Lawder replied that if Grynwich thought he could do any better himself, he should come in and try. Grynwich marched to the station. Last week the Sunday Symphony Hour went off without a hitch. The slow, deliberate, fairly rich voice of the announcer, who was very right about his musical lore, belonged to Announcer William (Grynwich) Grayson.
