They are "Take a Chance," quiz how with Don Ameche seen Sundays at 10:30 p. and the Hank McCune program, which Is in the 7 p. m. Saturday slot.

Both are carried by WNBK. Ameche seems to have fallen considerably in popularity. It hasn't been so long ago that he was one of the most liked emcees on radio. His "Holiday Hotel" TV program Thursdays at 9 on WEWS Isn't winning many friends either, according to Radio Row reports. "TAKE A CHANCE" got off to a slow start this fall and never was able to regain the lost ground.

The McCune show is filmed on the West Coast and a light comedy piece. We don't think It very funny. These bring to four the number of sponsored shows canceled so far this fall. The Kay Kyser show Is due to be replaced by a revue starring Jack Haley. The Magna-vox Theater is due for a heave-ho In a couple weeks.

WHILE THE 2,000.000 new TV set owners in major league baseball cities hurt attendance to some extent this year, television was only one of five major factors responsible for an attendance drop of 13 per cent for major league teams and 19 per cent in the minors this year. That's the finding of a survey on the situation conducted by a University of Pennsylvania graduate student. Jerry N. Jordan. The four other factors, he said, were the weather, shifts In performances, a general levelling out of attendance from the abnormal postwar peaks and an excessive number of broadcasts.

He said that TV could not have been the major factor. If this had been the case, the attendance losses would have been even greater because people were buying new sets at the rate of 600,000 a month, he explained. SEVERAL unknown comedians are being given a chance to try out for the "Broadway Open House" Monday and Wednesday spot vacated by Morey Amsterdam. The show is seen on WNBK at 11 p. m.

Mickey Deems and George Conley were scheduled for this week and Wally Cox will be auditioned next week. Others tenta- Joe Louis vs. Cesar Brion, a 10-round bout bringing together the former world heavyweight champion and the young Argentine belter, will be aired at 10 tonight by WADC and WXEL. Russ Hodges announces for- tho radio audience and Ted Hus-lng does the video commentary. tively assigned time are Sweeney and March, Jackie Gleason and Red Buttons.

The remainder of the Amsterdam cast stays with the show. A LONG TIME favorite, "Can You Top This?" was brought Into the range of Akron radio listeners Tuesday night as WAKR began to carry it. Sen. Ed. Ford, Joe Laurie Harry Hersh field and Peter Don aid engage In a laugh-provoking 30-minutes to see if they can tell funnier jokes than those sent In by the listeners.

All are old time vaudevillians except Donald, who is top dialec-titian of the day. He's the Ajax Cassidy of the Fred Allen show. Emcee Ward Wilson is also quite the humorist. He portrayed "Beetle" with Phil Baker for seven years. A SEARCH for the "finest family In the country has been inaugu rated by Tommy Bartlett, emcee of NBC-WT AM 10 a.

m. show "Wei come Trave lers." The win nlng family, nominated by letters to the program, is supposed to re ceive "the fin est Christmas this family has ever known." Bartlett The search, says Bartlett, is not necessarily for a needy family nut for one which most nearly represents the spirit of Christmas the year around. Nominations will be re ceived through Tuesday, Dec. 5 HOUSEWIVES who frequently burn their roasts might take a cooking tip from Gracie Allen, whose secret was explained by George Burns on their TV show: "Gracie always buys two roasts a large one and a small one. She puts them In the oven at the same time.

Then when the small one begins to burn, she knows the large roast is done." AF Training Pvt. Robert D. Kucko, son of Mrs. Anna E. Kucko, 920 Davies is training as an Air Force technician at the USAF Technical School, Francis E.
