CHARLES OSGOOD'S breezy exhortation "See you on the radio" has helped make him one of the most popular figures in broadcasting.

The Macintosh here is running "Gershwin Plays Gershwin," a nice anachronism: piano-roll reproductions tinkling out of a double-speed AppleCD 300 reader and a pair of speakers.

JWP Inc. is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission for possible securities law violations, according to bankruptcy documents filed in New York. JWP, based in Rye Brook, N.Y., said in court papers that the S.E.C. had first informed it of the investigation last May. JWP has not issued a public statement that it was under investigation. It addressed the investigation in a disclosure statement filed in United States Bankruptcy Court in Manhattan on Feb. 14, the same day it filed for Chapter 11 protection from creditors, Alys Reynders, a spokeswoman for the company, said. She said the company's Chapter 11 status freed it from any obligation to disclose the existence of the S.E.C.'s inquiry outside the bankruptcy disclosure statement.
