"We prepared a special continuity program, a copy of which is inclosed, with Margaret Romaine Browning singing, our Radio Manager reading, and brother Willey Reske, a splendid pianist of the Brooklyn Branch, accompanying." -- New York leader, 1931

(That isn't going to mean much to most people, but a couple of friends will recognize an old buddy of ours)

Nice. I'm still getting notifications about his grandson's music. He's doing some fascinating work.

Oh, duh, now I understand your question, Kent! You're right; this was written by a local church leader (Brooklyn, actually), proud to draw on the talents of members in NYC.

Actually, I was really confused. There was, at one point, a newspaper called the "New York Leader"
