Kramer, head of the party. Gathered around, waiting lor the day's instructions are several district supervisors." It is the story of the "Ghost and the Politican," written by Helen Prince, which will be presented on Playwright's Matinee over KOLN at 4:30 tomorrow after noon. J. B. Kramer, the ghost politi cian and head of the Reuplocrat party in heaven, has consulted the book of the future to find out if his party is going to win the election, down on earth. He finds out that the election is going to be a tie. There is only one man who coul,d possibly break that tie . . .

Horace at once tried to committ suicied. But Doc prevents him and sends Ho race to the hospital.

Playing Horace is Paul Russum. Doc is plaved bv Sandv Lew; the Swede, sort of a yes man to J.B., is Bob Jenkins and "J.B." is play by Krasne. This is certain to be an entertaining program!
