Vice president is William Carl Grunow, round-faced, grinning, shouting, cursing president of the radio company. Since they started in 1921 with $37,500 and a desire to "manufacture something," these two men have been "the works." Mr. Grunow is the boss, the plant man.

Last week the Lincoln players gave the first concert of their fourth season. Again Rudolph Seidl, onetime oboist in the Minneapolis Symphony, conducted his 40 colleagues, all of whom receive union wages.
