Other essentials are appearance not necessarily good looks a photogenic quality, a retentive memory and the ability to speak in a warm, intimate manner. "To supplement these qualities," points out Harry Marble, TV announcer for CBS' "Peoples' Platform," the TV announcer must be endowed with a high degree of con-centrative ability.

If 11 you're under the impression that the job of television announcing: is an easy one, don't lay odds on it.

The fact that it looks so casual only means the effect was achieved by a combination of toil, trial and effort. The TV announcer chore is considerably more difficult than that of a radio announcer. He does not read from his script, he cannot cue the actors or audience and he doesn't have the comparative quiet of a radio studio. He has to concentrate on his delivery even though confusion reigns about him and at the same time give the audience the there is an unexpected lapse, ne must smoothly fill in.

The secret lies In stacking the sets somewhat as film is packed in a camera film holder. When a program is over, stagehands strike the set just used, and there, ready for the next show, is the necessary scenery for it.

Caddigan said that another system devised at Du Mont had been that of pairing smaller shows which required little scenery with larger productions which required more elaborate sets. By this system the network can air three to five programs a night from one studio rather than having to use a separate studio for each show as other stations do. "Another achievement of our experimental project," he disclosed, "has been the development of writer-director teamwork to fash- tion, now WEEI.

But ad libbing convincingly, as all show people know, is one of the most prized skills in show business. There is nothing so flat as a flat ad lib.
