question of what, to do with the captain,

in the script. At this writing it appears,

that he will either- be killed off or sent

to a sanitanuni—if the latter, be can

still pen messages to be read to the Show-

boat- audience. The outcome will, have

been determined by the time this appears

in print, but however Cap,tain Henry is

iictipnally disposed of, his fans can re-

joice in the knowledge that he is happily

treading the Broadway boards.

first wife, a Russian dancer. He turned

right around and married another

IS RADIO fdliowing the movies along the path of

: sophistication culminating in censorship ? This is the

tainly knows as much about the early days of motion

pictures as any living person, and whose shrewd sense

of showmanship is now finding expression through

offenders on the: score of vulgarity. Her constructive

ideas on air programs are worth the serious consider-

ation of those who shape the destinies of radio.

I LIKE radio. Considering that it's still in its swaddlingclothes, I think it has done wonders.But none of us is perfect-and radio is no exception.

True, it brings lots of pleasure to people, but if it weremore carefully planned-less haphazard-it would be muchmore enjoyable. And it isn't developing. Instead, its unde­sirable features are being augmented. It's traveling along'line arne path which the movies blazed, years and years ago.

Let me draw a para1lel or two.About twenty-five years ago, motion pictures were just

staning on the pathwa)' to popularity. People (myself amongthem) thought it was wonderful to see the likenesses of actorsand actresses flitting about on the screen. Photography wascrude! Scenarios were cruder and I'm sure our acting wascrudest of all-but pictures were a novelty. They didn't haveto be good-people came to see them simply because they wereUsomething new."

Radio, some ten or twelve years ago, was in a very similarposition. The most important part of a program was notthe entertainment; it was the call letters of the station to whichwe were listening. And if it was a station a thousand ormore miles away, our cup of happiness was full to overflowing.

The heads of the industry have not yet come to the com­plete realization that it is no longer sufficient for radio merelyto provide Usomething to listen to." It requires real show­manship to hold an audience, once the first novelty has wornof!.

I AM beginning to wonder whether sponsored programs,devised by advertising experts, who are salesmen rather

than showmen, can succeed now that the first thrill of tuning­in has gone.

Consider your own case. If you· are a normal, healthyAmerican, you do not welcome the book-agent or other manwho comes to your door with something to sell. But at leasthe rings your doorbell before he comes in.

The salesmen of the air do not even do that. They springat you when you least expect it, from behind a barrage ofmusic or other program material. It is as though someonecarne to call on you, perhaps bringing you a bunch of flowersor a box of candy, and then in the midst of an amusing con­versati'on, suddenly said,

"By the way, I work for the Simmik Wet Wash Laundry,and it is the salary they pay me which makes it possible forme to bring you this lovely present. You ought to feel grate­ful to the Simmik Wet Wash Laundry, and the next timeyou have any laundry to be done, you must remember theSimmik Wet Wash Laundry. Please take a pencil and writedown the name and address. I'll spell it for lOU. It's theSimmik Wet Wash Laundry. spelled 5 I M M K, and theiraddress is five five five (that's five-fifty-five) Blank Street,spelled B LAN K Street. Their slogan is :-The customeris always right. So don't fail to patronize the Simmik Wet___Of and so on ~nd on, far into the night.

The point I am trying to bring out is that few radio ad­venisers are willing to tet well enough alone. They seemto feel that not only must they state their case, but that theymust also drive it in up to the head and clinch it on the otherside. It seems to me that they generally overdo it. Insteadof appreciating their programs, we poor radio listeners toooften resent the marked lack of subtlety.

Same day I may accept one of the radio offers that have

Here is a red-hot scoop I Mary

Pickford wrote thisarticle for RADIO·

LAND readers before she signed the

contract for her new program, at a

time when the prospects of her ap­

pearing on radio at all were uncertain

and remote. Consequently she ex­

pressed herself with unusual freedom

and vigor, setting down her forceful

views on what's wrong with radio,

how programs should be conducted,

and how she would reorganize radio

if she were dictator of the broadcast­

ing studios. Now that Mary Pickford

has become a radio star of the Arst

magnitude, it is suggested that you tune

in on her new program and decide

for yourself whether she has put her

ideas into practice I

been made me. If Ihave any voice in whatthe advertising messageis, it will be brief, I war­rant you. Advertising an­nouncements would un­doubtedly be a lot more fun-and therefore have a biggeraudience - if the practise ofhaving them given by the enter·tainers, and preferably preparedby script writers instead of sales·men, were fallowed mare extensively.

AFTER all, there is much to be saidfor the British system of broadcast·

ing, under which the listener is taxed asmall annual license fee which is used to sup­port broadcast programs. The programs, underthat system, do not have to rely on advertising fortheir financial backing, and consequently save con·siderable wear and tear on the listeners' nervous systems.

There is, of course, some difficulty in collecting the licensefees, which would probably be even more marked over here,where people have developed a high degree of agility in dodg­ing the income tax collector, but other means of achieving thesame end have been suggested.

These I shall call unarrow.casting" [Conti,med on page 42]

It's the Simmik Wet Wash Laundry, spelled SI M M I K, and their address Is five five five (that's five-fifty-five) Blank Street, spelled BLANK Street. Their slogan is;—The customer is always right So don't fail to patronize the Simmik Wet " and so on and on, far into the night.

The point I am trying to bring out is that few radio ad- vertisers are willing to let well enough alone. They seem to feel that not only must they state their case, but that they must also drive it in up to the head and clinch it on the other side. It seems to me that they generally overdo it. Instead of appreciating, their programs, we poor radio listeners too often resent the marked lack of subtlety.

Here is a red-hot scoop! Mary

Plckford wrote this article for RADIO-

LAND readers before she signed the

contract (or her new program, at a

time when the prospects of Her ap-

pearing on radio at all were uncertain

and remote. Consequently she ex-

pressed herself with unusual freedom

and vigor, setting down her forceful

views on what's wrong with radio,

how programs should be conducted,

and how she would reorganize radio

if she were dictator of the broadcast-

ing studios. Now that Mary Pickford

has become a radio star of the first

magnitude, it is suggested that you tune

in on her new program and decide

for yourself whether she has put her

ideas into practice I

been made me. If I have any voice in what the advertising message is, it will be brief, I war- rant you. Advertising an- nouncements would un- doubtedly be a lot more fun —and therefore have a bigger audience — if the practise of having them given by the enter- tainers, and preferably prepared by script writers instead of sales- men, were followed more extensively.

AFTER all, there is much to be said for the British system of broadcast-

ing, under which the listener is taxed small annual license fee which is used to sup- port broadcast programs. The programs, under that system, do not have to rely on advertising for their financial backing, and consequently save con- siderable wear and tear on the listeners' nervous systems.

There is, of course, some difficulty in collecting the license fees, which would probably be even more marked over here, where people have developed a high degree of agility in dodg- ing the income tax collector, but other means of achieving the same end have been suggested.

If Mary Pickford wer« Fairy God- mother of Radio, with full power to change program! or stations as she saw fit, she would in- sist that advertising announcements be made brief and en- tertaining. Organ- ize broadcasting stations serving the same area to elimi- nate duplication of programs. Allot specified hours to stations during which they would regularly broadcast certain types of programs so that the listener would always know where to dial In dance music, sym- phonic concerts, etc., as he might desire. Preserve radio from the threat of censorship by steering it away from movie practices which it is imitating; particularly, restrain comedians to keep radio clean.

WHO is this glamorous Dorothy Page who, unknown a fewshort weeks ago, has been scoring radio hits in such rapidsuccession as to leave one dizzy following her progress?

It was only last spring that she began her career on the radio net-works as "The Queen of Hearts," registering an instantaneous

success which has just established her as singing star of theJan Garber Supper Club program which goes out from

Chicago to the entire country.No one could more honestly claim the title of HQueen

of Hearts" than Dorothy Page. Proposals of mar­riage from ardent listeners flow in to her daily,

inspired by the channing, intimate quality of hervoice. And yet, ironically enough, these mean

nothing to Miss Page other than a measure ofher success. Perhaps she sings the more feel­ingly her songs of love because she has ex­perienced the bitterness of having her ownbeautiful romance become a throbbing memoryof heartbreak-but of that, more later.You will be lucky if you can find a spot tostand and look into her studio while shebroadcasts. The day I saw ·her the balconieswere full and only by special dispensation wasI able to edge my way through knots of staffartists and technicians into the forbidden con­trol room where privileged NBCitizens them­

selves had gathered to hear this new charmerof the air.

DECEMBER, 1934 17

THE conspiracy which has existed to con­fine Lawrence Tibbett within the rigidclassifications of an opera star is thor­

oughly exploded by his new program sponsoredby Packard. At last the man has broken throughthe shackles and is doing something on the airthat he has always wanted to do. For the firsttime Lawrence Tibbett is revealed to be what thefootball scribes aTe fond of designating as a"triple threat" man-he sings, he acts, he talks!

No radio listener, of course, will be surprisedat the news that Tibbett sings. It's what every­body expects of him. But most dial twisterswill be surprised to hear him play straight dra­matic parts from musical comedies and motionpictures scripts, and to appear in autobiographicaldramatizations from his own life story-suchincidents as the time he was mistaken for a bankrobber and had to sing his way out of the policestation, and the occasion when he and :\laria]eritza engaged in a wrestling bout on a Cleve­land stage.

Lawrence Tibbett's third "threat" is the vocalpersonatit}, of the man himself. He draws uponthe rich background of experience which hascrowded his active life and discusses, in man­to-man fashion, celebrities he has known andgeneral topics of interest.

It is high time that Tibbett's true personalitybecame better known to his radio audience. Hehas a nice smile and a cheerful disposition whichsurvived the barrage of questions I aimed at himas I cornered him in the den of his beautifulNew York apartment overlooking the East River.

LAWRENCE TIBBETT is not exactly modest,but he has a healthy contentment in hard

\\o'ork and a keen sense of humor. He is justlyproud of his fine voice with which he has con­quered the opera, radio and moving pictures-buthe never forgets that it is a God-given gift and

that he had nothing personally to do with it.But God did not teach him how to use his voiceor how to act and he learned all that throughexperience and training.

He admires and believes that the secret ofGreta Garbo's success as an actress lies in thatfact that she can stay still and concentrate onan idea and hold your interest longer than anyother on the screen. He further explained, andI quote him here and only wish you could haveseen his facial expressions as he demonstratedfor me. He said:

"The movies began to improve my acting theminute I saw the shots of the first scenes. Tomy utter astonishment I discovered that every­time I took a high note I looked at the end ofmy nose and crossed my eyes 1 I was twistingmy mouth into queer shapes!" He demonstratedhere with rather dismaying success.

"And when I pronounced certain words theydidn't sound at all the way I expected. I wasusing Operatic Gesture No.1-the right handabove the heart, the left hand extended skyward-to mean anything. I used it for 'I love youvery much,' 'It looks like rain,' 'Good night,Mother,' and 'No, I don't believe I'll have anymore spinach.' " •

BUT in radio-there's where he did have atime. My sympathy goes out to the stage

and screen star who tackles radio for the firsttime. On the stage they never have to leanover to a cold, hard production man and ask"How'm I doin' "-they know by the audience.Mr. Tibbett explained to Ole that it was a cold,damp feeling to finish a program without theslightest idea how people liked it, or if thereeven was anyone who heard.

Such was the problem that confronted himwhen he first sang over the air-in Los Angelesin 1922. But he tells [Colltinued all page 54]

T:HE .conspiracy which has existed to con-

fine Eawrence Tibbett within the rigid

classifications of an opera star is thor-

oughly exploded by his new program sponsored

by Packard. At last the man has broken through'

the shackles-and is doing something on the air

that he lias always wanted to do.. For the first

time Lawrence Tibbett is revealed to be what the

football scribes are fond of designating as a

"'triple threat" man—he sings, he acts, he talks!

iNTo radio listener,, of course., will be surprised

at the news-that Tibbett sings. It's what every-

body expects of him. But most dial twisters

will be surprised to hear him play straight dra-

matic parts from musical comedies and motion

pictures scripts, and to appear in autobiographical

dramatizations from His own life story—such

incidents as tile time lie was mistaken for a bank

robber and had to sing his way .out of the police

station; and the, occasion when he and Maria

Jeritza engaged in a wrestling bout on a Cleve-

land stage.

Lawrence Tibbett's third "threat" is the vocal

personality of "the man hiinseif. He draws upon

the rich background of experience which has

crowded his active life and discusses, in man-

to-man fashion, celebrities he has known and

general topics of! interest

It is high time that Tibbett's true personality

became better known, to his radio, audience. He

has a nice smile and a cheerful disposition which

survived the barrage of questions I aimed at him

as I cornered him in, the den of his beautiful

New York apartment overlooking the East River.

T AWRENCE TIBBETT is not exactly modest,

* J but he has a healthy contentment in hard

work and a keen sense of humor. "He is justly

proud of his fine yoiee -vyitlr which he has con-

quered the opera, radio and moving pictures—-but

he •never .forgets that it is a God-giveh gift and

that he had. nothing personally to do with it.

But God did not teach him how to use his voice

or how to act and he learned all that through

experience and training.

He admires and believes that the secret of •» i % • * " * ** 7r " '"

Greta Garbo's success as an actress lies in that

fact that she. can stay still and concentrate on

an idea and hold your interest longer than any

other on the Screen. He further explained, and

I quote him here and only wish you could have

seen his facial expressions as he demonstrated

for me. He said:

"The movies began to improve my acting the

minute I saw the shots of the first scenes. To

my utter astonishment I discovered that every-

time I took a high note I looked at the end of

my nose and crossed my eyes!, X was twisting

my mouth into queer shapes!" He demonstrated

here with -rather dismaying success.

"And when I -pronounced certain words they

didn't .sound at all the way I expected. I was

using Operatic Gesture No. 1—-the right hand

above the heart, the left hand extended skyward

—-to mean anything. I used it for T love you

very much/ Tt looks like rain/ 'Good night.

Mother,' and 'No, I don't believe I'll have any

more spinach,5"

"OUT in radio—there's where .he did have a

^ time. My sympathy goes out to the stage

and screen star who" tackles -radio for the first

time. On the stage they never have to lean

over to a cold, hard production man and ask

"How'm I doin' "—they, know by the audience.

Mr. Tibbett explained to me that it was a cold,

damp: feeling to finish a program without the

slightest 'idea hbw people liked it, or if there

even was anyone -who heard,

Such was the problem that confronted Him

when,he" Erst sang over the air—in Los, Angeles

in 1922; But he tells [Continued on page 54],

M EANWHILE, they had gone on the air as the comedyfeature of a local program. Fan mail continued to pour

in, together with requests for tickets to their broadcasts. Theyworked before the microphone in costume, using a great manygag props; and the only criticism of their work was that theaudience laughs disturbed the smoothness with which theirprogram went over the air. In some comedy shows, thedirector gives a signal for audience laughs; here the problem

was to keep onlookers from goinginto stitches continually and break­ing up the show.

Their broadcasting was inter­rupted for the trip to HoIlywood,where they spent the summer, mak­ing Kid Mill£ons with Cantor.

"But working," Eve says. "That'sall one does in HoIlywood. We gotup at quarter to six and went tobed at ten. . .. No partie~xcept

the grand one Eddie gave us whenwe left. He's so swell. . .. Andlook, all the clothes I took with me-as good as new. We neverdressed up. It's really very lone­some out there."

Jesse's one regret is the fact thathe had to wear a beard in the pic.ture. "What will the kids think?"he said. OlThey listen to us on theradio, and then they see an old guywith a beard." We gathered thatJesse didn't care for the beard.

nnlhon-dollar production every week. The really fascinating angles of the program have to do with the personalities behind the scene. Let's have a look at them.

Billed somewhat expansively as a "new radio art form," The Gibson Family hasn't made the mistake of actually trying to live up to the fanfare. Radio, in its entertainment aspect, is only a specialized form of the theater and the program very shrewdly has followed the time-tried musical comedy formula. To create an entirely new musical comedy every week is an assignment so ambitious that plenty of veteran showmen said it couldn't be done. The fact that it has been done turns the tables on skeptics who have rather loudly proclaimed radio to be a static medium out of which nothing new can come.

/"^OURTNEY RYLEY COOPER, famous writer of best- ^ sellers, is the man behind the dialogue. Small, bald, wiry, with penetrating gray eyes that are coolly measuring, there is scarcely a corner of the globe he has not visited, and out of his rich background of experience comes the colorful "book" of the program, as the story dialogue is termed in the pro- fession.

Supplying the new songs every week are Arthur Schwartz and Howard Dietz, who produced such hit tunes as Give Me Something To Remember You By, Dancing In The Dark, and / Love Louisa. Somewhat dismayed by the appalling task of turning out several hit _ songs every week—the average team of songwriters is satisfied with one or two successes a season—the pair have been putting in long hours filling the most gruelling assignment ever handed out to radio song- smiths.

PUTTING COAT, PANTS AND VEST ON A POPULAR SONG

When Arthur Schwartz, who ziriles the music for The Gibson Family, turns out a neat assortment of sharps and flats, he plays over the tune for his Partner, H award Diets, who writes the lyrics, and remarks, "This one seems to call for a pair of Columbus Pants." No- body but a song writer could make head or tail out of this Tin Pan Alley jargon, but what Mr. Schwartz means is simply

that the chorus of the song calls for words narrating how the hero first discovers his lady fair.

Mr, Diets furnished Radioland a brief dictionary of Tin Pan Alley slang which should, prove helpful if you ever become em- broiled in a convention of songsmitks.

A restless is a song in which the "torch" ballad idea prevails, such as I'll Always Be in Love With You.

A Valley Forge is a song in which his- torical characters such as Washington, Napoleon, or even Einstein and Frank' Sin D. Roosevelt are mentioned.

A little stranger contains a hint some-

where m the lyrics that there may be y'Tfk an addition to the family.

A Columbus, as described above, deals with the hero's discovery of his lady

The coat, vest, and pants are, respec- the first part of the verse, thb two

lines leading info it, and the chorus. "Pants" are generally easier to create than the rest.

And songs like Just Around the Corner, A New Sun in the Sky, oho Cheer Up, Good Times Are Coming, are referred to as Hoovers!

A lot of ambitious song writers would like to know which comes first—the music or the words. The only answer to this is that there are no rules when it comes to creating song hits. If the lyric writer hits on a happy word com- bination, his partner fits a tune thereto. If the tunesmith develops a nice melody, the words are trimmed to suit. And there you are!

A SPO~SOR feeling the urge to sellhis goods via the personality. of a

stage star offered David Warfield $5,000a broadcast for thirteen weeks. The for·mer Belasco luminary refused it. Formany years retired from the stage, hewon't allow anything-least of all, busi­ness-to interfere with his daily pinochlegame at the Lambs.

And still another advertiser lost allfaith in the power of his money when AlSmith turned down his bid of $15,000 aweek for 26 weeks. Two motives actu­ated the former governor of New YorkState in his declination. One is that hehates the radio (impishly, he still per­sists in referring to it as the "raddio"because that pronounciation annoys cer·tains members of his family) and theother is he has political aspirations whichmight be jeopardized by his broadcastinga commodity at this time.

9 Blue Slips For Sustaincrs

IN ONE week the Columbia Broadcast- ing System handed blue slips to four

sustaining features. Walking papers went to Charles Carlile, "Lazy Bill" Huggtns, Edith Murray and the Beale Street Boys. At this writing other popular sustaincrs (i. e. artists without sponsors who are presented and paid by the networks themselves) are scheduled to leave on both chains. Doubtless by the time you read this several of your favorites will be notable by their absence and you will be wondering why.

Sustaining artists are disappearing be- cause the broadcasting business this win- ter is at the peak of its prosperity. Ad- vertisers having acquired all the desirable evening spots (and extended the dead- line from 10 to II p. m.) have been forced to buy time in the daylight hours.

Ed Wynn would rather write auto- graphs than eat—so-o-o-o here he is signing Eld Wynn masks for young admirers at the World Fair

This automatically cuts down the periods when the networks have to provide the entertainment and out goes the sustaining performer into the cold, cruel world.

SOME radio executives, jubilant over the rush of advertisers to the air-

lanes, profess to see the end of the sys- tem of sustaining artists. Others, who fear that the stampede of sponsors to the studios will result in more ballyhoo than brains in programs, are not so sure. The sustaining artist, until this winter, has been the backbone of broadcasting and it doesn't seem likely that the species will become extinct over night.

revolution—in the progress of radio spells doom to the sustaincrs ac- cording to the proponents of this theory. Dissenters argue that ad-

vertisers, seeking only to sell their wares, will so disgust the radio audience with obtrusive sales-talk that the networks, in self-preservation, will be obliged to supply outstanding programs at their own expense to offset the odium of the sponsored sessions.

In support of this latter contention they point to Columbia's recent manoeuver in setting aside two periods for Kate Smith—from 3 to 4 p. m. Wednesdays and from 8 to 8:30 o'clock Thursday evenings—to project her own variety shows. The Thursday evening period, it will be noted, runs counter to Rudy VaU6e's Fleischmann variety bill for exactly thirty minutes and takes care of a spot on the Columbia schedule which no advertiser is anxious to buy, Vallie being deemed opposition too big to buck.

When launched CBS announced that the Kate Smith reviews were not for sale —unless sponsors took the shows and time, as is. When this was written both shows were running merrily as sustain- ing features but when you read these lines one or both periods may be under sponsorship. Columbia has had a hard time trying to sell Kate Smith down the river—she has only sung for one com- mercial since she has been on the air.

Annette hanshaw, out of the 4 Showboat cast, is now vocalizing ex-

clusively on the Camel cigarette program with Glen Gray's Casa Loma Orchestra and Walter O'Keefe. The switch means exactly $1,150 more a week in Annette's pay envelope. This is a simple matter of arithmetic since Miss Hanshaw's salary on the Showboat was $250, while $1,400 is the figure on her Camel Caratxin check.

And speaking of salaries, William S. Paley as president of the Columbia net- work collected $140,000 for his services for the first six months of this year. The

last six months will bring the youthful head of the country's biggest network even a larger sum, the radio business being what it is this winter. Paley a salary is figured on this basis: A guar- antee of $50,000 annually plus 2% per cent of the profits up to $600,000 and 5 per cent of the earnings above that amount. Columbia in 1934 will make $5,000,000—and more.

• Thumbs Down On $15,000 A Week

A SPONSOR feeling the urge to sell his goods via the personality of a

stage star offered David Warfield $5,000 a broadcast for thirteen weeks. The for- mer Bclasco luminary refused it. For many years retired from the stage, he won't allow anything—•least of all, busi- ness—to interfere with his daily pinochle game at the Lambs.

And still another advertiser lost all faith in the power of his money when A1 Smith turned down his bid of $15,000 a week for 26 weeks. Two motives actu- ated the former governor of New York State in his declination. One is that he hates the radio (impishly, he still per- sists in referring to it as the "raddio" because that pronounciation annoys cer- tains members of his family) and the other is he has political aspirations which might be jeopardized by his broadcasting a commodity at this time.

Miscellany: Jack Benny, voted the most popular comedian on the air in a poll of radio editors, now receives $5,750 a broadcast. Two years ago his salary was $2,250. . . . Bing Crosbys business Interests are so extensive that his brother Larry (who recently did an article for RADIOLAND), formerly an advertising man, is now assisting Brother Everett Crosby in the management of his affairs. Sing's dad also functions as a business manager, having charge of his son's ex- tensive real estate holdings. . . . There- ain*t-no-justice note: In the picture, Sitting Pretty, the Pickens Sisters are seen for two minutes. They spent three months in Hollywood making it. . . .

Therefore I gave TheDru.nkard Soug my most careful attention, and the firm of Shapiro Bernsteindecided to publish it.

We feel we have a novelty song which may hit that type of person whoenjoys chiming in as a sort of echo in certain parts of the song. Theseparts are so obvious that our first presentation of rt at Manhattan Beachfound a group of young girls giving the answers spontaneously and mostenthusiastically. When asked why they did it, they said that they just feltthey should at that particular place. Therefore it has the ear~marks of apopular hit. and no one will be more delighted and surprised than yourstruly if the song does just what its publishers hope it will.

Our Victor record of it was one of the most unusual things we haveever recorded. It may have been the lateness of the hour (we recordedfrom seven p. m. until one a. m.• ) or maybe I was just a bit hysterical;at any rate I began laughing in the middle of the second verse and laughedthrough to the end of the entire song.

BUT don't limit the juices tobreakfast. Try lemon in­

stead of vinegar in Frenchdressing. Squeeze a bit overmeat or fish, or into spinach.Use orange juice as a flavoringfor cakes, rolls or sauces, orpour it over diced fruits in fruitcups. Or use the grated rindsof either lemons or oranges asa flavoring. As for salads trythese:

T EMONS as an antidote for snake bites? It sounds likeLRipley. But that was the remedy endorsed by the corner

druggist back in the days of ancient Rome, not alone forrattlesnake and adder bites, but for every kind of poison.Roman ladies 'stuffed lemons into woolens to keep out moths,and the delicate nibbled the rinds as a tonic. The fruit itselfwas not very popular in the days of Roman scandals.

Nat so with oranges. They "went over big" from the mo­ment the Portugese brought them from China. The Englishbeau of Shakespeare's day stuck them with cloves and pre­sented them to his lady on New Year's day.

But it took a modern generation to discover the real magicof citrus fruits. Who doesn't remember Hgrowing pains," orthe little twinges of rheumatism of later years, or the teeththat decayed in spite of daily brushings? Just mild formsof scurvy, science today tells us, caused by a lack of VitaminC in the diet. And the greatest source of Vitamin C is in thecitrus fruits. These maladies and many more disappear likemagic when sufficient lemon, grapefruit or orange juice be­comes a daily habit. Even the skin becomes fresh and clearwhen citrus juices are taken freely. It's one way to keep youngand beautiful!

The alkaline salts of these citrus fruits are the perfect anti­acids, and counteract the effect of too much roast beef andlobster newburg. Just consider a few of their other merits:They stimulate appetite and growth; they create body re­sistance; they build strong bones, teeth and gums; they buildnerve tissue; and they are mildly laxative.

And with all these virtues, they are not hard to take! Thejuice of a lemon squeezed into water on arising is a tQnicworth taking. Freshly pressed and ice-cold, nothing e'qt1'alsorange or grapefruit juice atbreakfast. Put the juice in therefrigerator the night before,and add a squeeze of lemonjuice for variety And note thatthe small oranges give plenty ofjuice and are not expensive.

The citrus fruits which Mrs. Allen talks aboutthis month literally work magic in the diet-es­pecially when prepared according to the tasty

or "wired-wireless." I understand thatseveral projects of this sort are underway, and one of them was explained torne as being something like this:

In your home you would have a radioset, possibly owned by you, but moreprobably simply rented from and main­tained by some program-producing or­ganization. If the set were rented, youwould likely have a free choice of threeor more channels which would be atyour disposal from 8:00 a. m. until mid­night or later. One would carry popularprograms consisting largely of dancemusic; the second, classical music andeducational talks; the third, radiodramas, comedy talks, news and similarmaterial. There would be no adver­"tising at all on these programs: yourrental fees would pay the artists and sta­tion staff.

Radio stations, if they were to co·operate instead of engaging in cut-throatcompetition in a desperate attempt tosteal each other's advertisers, might do,,-cry much the same thing. It's a grandsensation to imagine oneself possessedof unlimited authority, so just for a min­ute I'm going to forget that I'm just oneout of several million radio listeners andpretend that I've been made Fairy God­mother of Radio, with full scope tochange stations or programs as I see fit.

FIRST, I think, I'd make a nation­wide survey of radio listeners, to de­

termine the age and interest of the peo­ple who tune-in, and the time which eachage group or other division finds mostconvenient for listening.

Then I'd call together the heads of

the four leading stations serving anygiven area and have them work out acombined schedule to avoid duplicationof programs. I think it's the silliestthing for two or more powerful stationsin the same city to broadcast the sameidentical speech-or even very similarprograms - simultaneously; it's just awaste of effort on the part of either oneof them.

According to my plan, while one sta­tion was broadcasting, say, a sports talk,another would be putting on a danceprogram, the third perhaps a symphonyconcert, and the fourth a drama. In thenext period, the first might have a violinconcerto, the second a health talk bysome famous athlete, the third a groupof hillbillies and the fourth a bluessinger, and so forth. The way radio i!'run now, you may tune to a dozen sta­tions in search of a good concert and findnothing but popular songs and jazzbands, only to find, an hour or so later,when you feel like dancing, that all youget is classical music or a group of edu­cational talks.

Radio, I am sure, will have to con­sider this problem before it grows verymuch older. It's cutting its second teethnow, and it's no longer a Nine Days'"Vonder. It will have to compete withother forms of entertainment on an equalfooting.

I'm afraid that means radio will gothe way of the movies. In their earlydays the pictures were innocently amus­ing. Well, they're still amusing, but.they're no longer so innocent. Someproducer discovered that we all like tobe shocked a bit now and then-and

It was while I was with an orchestra inMemphis. She came to the studio, handi­capped as she was, and brought the mostbeautiful bouquet of flowers which shehad gathered from her own garden. Andshe had composed a poem for me as anecho of the feelings she had felt whilelistening to our program through herradio. That touched me in a way I nevershall forget. tJ

Had this delectable young woman everknown from her own experience thedepths of love and romance of whichshe sang so fervently? Reluctantly sheadmitted that she had. Once long ago­Ob, perhaps three or four years-therehad been a man who had won her heart.She dreamed a dream and all the worldwas roses and sunshine. Then suddenlythere was a rift. The man married an­other girl. For a while it seemed shecould not endure the heartache but hercareer still beckoned and she adopted anew philosophy toward life. Not thatshe is cold or distant. She simply willnot let any man presume over her af­fections to the extent that he can assumehe has made a complete conquest.

unaffected, personal. No studied effort

or vocal gymnastics—just smooth, radi-

ant quality and words that said things.

I think I have heard them all and seen

them ail but there was no one to whom

she could be compared unless in some

way it seemed there was a suggestion

of Jessica Dragonette. This may ha ye

been, from the way she addressed herself

so whole-heartedly to the microphone,

and the effect. There is no similarity in

the voices. Dorothy's is much lower in

register. In appearance she is taller and

slimmer and there is less of the poetic

in her expression.

I NEVER knew a quarter-hour to pass

so quickly. A few minutes later I

met" her in the studio and she led me

away to. a 'small, reception room where

we sat down and talked about the mir-

acle of it all.

"You sing the words of your songs as

though they were your own," I said.

"Lyrics art; so important! I like to-

feel there is real meaning to the- words,

of a song; And so many, fine'tunes are.

ruined by trivial words. Not that. I wish'

to decry the oopp-a-doop or la-larla.

There, are millions of people who like

that kind of singing, too. But I am no

more suited to that thai; r am to perform

the leading roles of the most difficult

operas, although ;sdme day I should like

to perform in operettas or musical'

comedy.''

"You-must receive a.great many mash

letters?'''

"Let's don't talk about it that -way.

One-of the s.weetest tributes I have ever

known came from a girl who was lame.

It was while I was with an orchestra in

Memphis. She came to the studio, handi-

capped as she. was, and brought the most

beautiful bouquet of flowers which she

had gathered from her own garden. And

she had composed a poem for me as an

echo of the feelings she had felt while

listening to our program through her

radio. That touched me in a way I never

shall forget:"

Had this delectable young woman ever

known from her own experience the

depths of love and romance of which

she sang so fervently? Reluctantly she

admitted that she had. Once long ago—

Oh, perhaps three or four years—there

had been a man who had won her heart.

She. dreamed a dream and ail the world

was roses and sunshine. Then suddenly

there was a rift. The man married an- ■ 4

other girl; For a while it seemed she

could not endure the Heartache but her ^ * _

career still beckoned and she adopted a

new philosophy toward life. Not that

she is cold or distant; She simply will

not let any man presume over her af-

fections to the extent that he can assume

he has made a complete conquest

DOROTHY has always been full

blooded and tremendously active,

When she graduated from the Nbrth-

■ampton, f Pa.); high school she; went to

the. Penh Hall School for' Girls where

she found most helpful instruction in the

fundamentals of her musical education.

She found time to participate in all ath-

letic sports. She was born with perfect

coordination of nerve, and muscle. Fleet'

of foot, she captured the championship

cup for her school in running. She rode

BACK to New York they went. Eveapproached the least forbidding

theatrical manager she could find. Heasked her what she could do.

be said of many of the prodigies whomGus launched on the road to fame. Andboth ·he and Eve practically revereEddie Cantor.

FOR five years Jesse was part of anact called" Block and Dunlap "-much

the same sort of ad as Block and Sullydo now. That is, as much like as itcould be without Sully.... And wherewas Sully all this time? Let's look ather.

Strangely enough, she too had startedher career at the magic age of thirteen.One of her first jobs was in a dancingact called IOThe Midnight Rollickers"­which was, incidentally, the first act tointroduce a band on the stage in fullblast. Eve was also in full blast-she wasmaster of ceremonies, although she shud­ders now to think of it. She had tomake six changes during the act, andgot tired of collapsing night after night.

Had it not been for the fact that shewas even then studying to be a dope, sheprobably would have balked at the m.c.idea; but she realized what good trainingit would be. Today she thinks she owe8a great deal of her success to the factthat she stuck--or was stuck. (She's abit hazy at this point.)

After being stuck for quite a while, shewent to Florida with her mother andsister. (Yes, the same sister you've heardher talk about-the dopy one!) TheSullys owned Florida real estate. Eveoffers this as conclusive proof that shecame from a long line of dopes.

Anyway, one day they looked out oftheir windows and found that the realestate, in the inconsiderate manner ofFlorida property, had slid neatly out ofsight into the Gulf of Mexico. Theywere real estateless, fatherless and prac­tically penniless. It was then that Everealized she would have to be head dopeof the House of Sully. She must takecare of her little women.

RADIOLAND

T HE Block and Sully formula forcomedy is a simple one-but then,

says Eve, they are simple people. Sheand Jesse often argue as to which ofthem is more simple, but she alwayscomes out ahead.

Jesse Block was one of the smart smallboys whom Gus Edwards used to collectfor his road shows. He showed us somepriceless snapshots of those old days.Georgie Price in short, tight pants; Lila"Cuddles" Lee in long curls-and a lotof other little" shotzes II who are now bigshots. Jesse himself was only thirteenwhen he started on his theatrical career,He wore long trousers on the stage tofool the Gary Society, that benign or­ganization which watches over footlightkiddies-and short pants while traveling,so he could ride for half fare.

His greatest thrill was when as merekids, he and Lila Lee and Georgie Pricedid an act in which Miss Lee imperson­ated Mabel Normand, Georgie didCharlie Chaplin and Jesse was ChesterConklin. When they played the OrpheumTheater in Los Angeles, the three greatcelebrities were in the audience watchingtheir small prototypes.

After the performance, all three camebackstage and congratulated the kids.Mabel Normand sent flowers and invitedthem to visit at her home. Jesse willnever forget tha t.

He wilt never forget anyone who wasever kind to him-he's like that. There'sa catch in his voice when he speaks ofGus Edwards-which is more than can

.. I don't like a big build-up," he said... Suppose we flop? And people are al~

It's Great to Be a

a "script Before he left he told me he

was worried because: they were .geftirig

such a .big" build-up on 'the program, '

"I don't lilce a big buildrup.he said.

" Suppose we flop;? And people are al-

ready' cougratulating us-on the;picture-

when ..nobody lias: seen it yet;' The

audience reaction will tell the' story—

nothing else. The saitie thing.,"is true of

the radio.' Everybody expects us" tche a

sensation. All we want to do is to hold,

.up our end. It's much better to sneak

upon success than to be ballyhooed' into

It,"

"^.H-E Block an.d Sully formula for

comedy -is simple one—but- then,

says Eye, they are simple people. She

and Jesse often, •afrgue as to -which of

i'thern is more siiriple, but she always

comes out" ahead.

Jesse Block was, one. of. the''smart small

boys whom. Gus Edwards; useff to collect

■for .his road ■shows He showed.yjs some

-.priceless snapshots of those old days.

.Georgie Price in short, tight pants j Lila

"Griddles;" Lee in lorig curls—and' a lot

of other little '"shotzes1" who are iiow -big

shots,. Jesse himself was' drily, 'thirteen

when he started-on his theatrical icareer,

He wore': long .trousers: on the stage to,

fool the. Gary Society,, that benign or-

ganization which- watches over footlight

Itiddies—and short :pants -while 'traveling,

so he could fide for half fare..

His greatest' thrill was when, as mere,

kids, he arid Lila; Lee and .Georgje Price

■did an act., in wHidh Miss Lee., impersons

.a ted Mabel Normandy Georgie did

Gharlie Chaplin and' Jesse was Chester

Conklin.. When they played" the rOrpheum

Theater in Los Angeles, the three great

celdBrititeS were in the audience watching1

their sriiali prototypes.

After the performance, all, three came,

backstage and congratulated the kids.

Mabel Normand sent,flowers and invited

them "to. -visit at her" home. Jesse will

never forget Ithat.

He- will ndv'ef forget aiiyqrie who ■■was

ever. kind, to; him—he's like. that.. There's

,a catch in his vpipe, when he .speaks of

Gus Edw^ards—whicb is' more than can

be said of many- of the prodigies whom;

.G,us; launched on the road, i0 Mine; And

both he arid Eve .practically revere

Eddie. .Garitof.

FOR {I've years. Jesse was part of an

act.called "Block and Dunlap "—much

the same s'ort of-a'ct as Block'and Sully

do. how. That is, as much like as if

•could, be without Sully. . ..... Arid' where

was "Sully" all this .tiine? Let's look at

her

Strangely enough, she too had,-started

her career at. the ■.magic age of'thirteen.

One of her- "first,.jobs: .was-' iri.a dancing

act; called1 "The. Midnight, Rollickefs''—

which, was, 'incidentally, the" "first a'ct -to

introduce .'a. band on the stage in full

blast. Eye was also in .full blast—she was

majter of ceremonies, although she shud-

ders now to think of it She had to

fuake six- changes during .the act, and

.got •tired Of cPllapsing night after night.

Had it not' been for. the; fact that 'she

was ev,en then studying to be .a Mope, she

probably- would, have balked' at. the m.c.

idea; brif she/realized what good training

it- would be; Today she 'thinks, she owes

a great deal' of - Her "success to the fact

that-she stuck—or was -stuck. (She's a

bit hazy; at, this point)

After1 being stuck for quite a -while,(.she

■went to Florida with her mother and

sister. .("Yes1, the" same sister you've heard

her talk .abdiit—the dopy one!) The:

Sullys owned .Florida, real estate". Eve

offdrs this as conclusive, proof that she

came from" a long line of dopes.

Anyway; one day they" lopked out of

their windows; and found that the. real

estate, in the inconsiderate mariner of ./» . . * m * " A* . . • * * V ■ J • '• C * • -* . A

Flbrida- property, "had slid neatly out .p'f

sight into the Gulf of .Mexico. They

were real esfateless,.fatherless arid prac-

tically penniless. It -was then" that Eve

.realized she would ,haye to be head;.dbpe

of the Mouse of Sully,- 'She must take

stead of a coupe. "I figured that as longas I was going to ptay Jack Hamilton,a westerner," says Conrad, who wasborn in Northbridge, Massachusetts, "Iought to learn how to stay on top of ahorse. The other day I took my firstlesson. The riding master said weshouldn't go very far on the first trip,but might do more mileage on the next.So we rode fifteen mites the first timeout, and he couldn't understand why Ididn't get stiff. A couple of days later,on the second ride, we went twenty·fiye.I guess I must be a cowboy at heartand in the legs."

I asked him how he liked the idea ofbeing a hero for a change, instead ofjust the unsuccessful suitor for a lady'shand that he has always been in theShowboat programs, (You know how"Lanny" is a 1way s head man with"Mary Lou.")

He said, "It's going to be grand tohave a soprano to myself for a change,and not have to share her with a blondtenor. I never could understand whytenors were always the great lovers inshows. anyway, because baritones aremuch better lovers off stage. Do youremember the old axiom of show busi­ness:-The tenor gets the girl on thestage-but the baritone's waiting in thewings I"

That's the sort of fellow Conrad is­gay, with a laugh on his lips. He's verydark, slim and a little above averageheight. I heard two girls in the corri­dor, wondering "who was that grandman with the cute dimples."

But Conrad isn't one of the upstagestars, spoiled by public adulation. He'sa simple soul. No puttees or boots andriding b r e e c h e s were his when heclimbed aboard his horse. He wore apair of old golf pants and sneakers. Hesays it horrified the grooms-but thehorse didn't seem to care,

Conrad Thibault was born on No·vember 13. 1905. And did the 13 bringhim any bad luck? "No," he says, "I'vealways had good luck, and 13 has beenmy lucky number."

meant the end of his career, had he beenless resolute in character.

She also enjoys driving. "No," shesaid, "I'm not fond of speeding. \Vhy,it took me nearly eight hours to getfrom home to the studio."

Her home is about three hundredmiles from New York, by road, and shestopped an hour for lunch. That meansshe averaged more than forty mites anhour over all sorts of roads and throughtraffic.

Both are getting their first big chancein radio with The Gibsoll Family show.

Lois, who plays the part of Sally Gib­son, a girl in the mythical town of IvoryCity, in the great '"Vest, is really a west­erner.

"Mrs. Bond wasgoing into vaudeville, to popularise hersongs, and asked me if I wouldn't jointhe act, to sing them. It seemed like agreat opportunity, so I accepted, I waswith her for ten weeks, and then becamesufficiently self-confident to try an actof mv own."

two old favorites, both of whom have

long been prominent in the Showboat

series.. They're none other than Lois

B;ennett, who formerly sang the; part of

Mary Lou, arid Gonrad Thibaulty the.

always-out-of-Huck "Conrad iii the same

series.

Both are getting their first big chance

iii radio with The Gibson Family show.

Lois, who.: plays- the part of Sally Gib-

son, a girl in the mythical town of Ivory

City, in the great West is really a west-

erner. She was horn in Houston, Texas,

and reared In Oklahoma City. Oklahoma.

Imbued with ambition for a rfntsica!

career, ever since Her first, public ap-

pearance at the age of five,. Lois came

to New York in 19.17 to study music.

"I met- Carrie Jacobs Bond, the com-

poser-, shortly after .coming east,"' Lois

told me as we leaned against the" pillar

in the NBC- corridor. "Mrs. Bosid was

going into vaudeville, to popularise her

songs, and asked me if I wouldn't join

the act, to sing them. It seemed like a

great opportunity, so I. accepted. I was

with -her for ten weeks, and then became-

sufficiently self-confident to try an act

of my own."

Her "single" act went over so well

that the great producer of Gilbert and

Sullivan operettas, Winthrop Amesi of-

fered her a chance at the leading- roles

in his productions. Site took it—played

New York and. went on the road.,

fh St. Louis, the petite red-head de-

cided to give the microphone a whirl,

clicked in radio and has been at it ever

since.

As part of an interviewer's routine, I

asked Her whether-she was married. Yes,

she is: to L. J.. Ghatten, former vice-

president of the Fada Radio Company.

"And," -I queried, "have you any

children?"

"Yes,"' Lois answered, "three. One's

mine, one's his, and one's ours,"

"What!" I gasped, just like that. But

she explained it.

LOIS was married once before—-even

gave up the stage to make being a

wife Her whole careeh. But the marriage

didn't last, and. she went- back to the

stage -again. She doesn't like to talk

about that part of her life. Her present

husband was married before, too, and

has a daughter, Joan,, while Lois Has.

a son, John—the only pleasant reminder

of her first, marriage. Little Jane, aged

two years, is the daughter of Mr. and

Mdk. L. J.. CH'atten (Lois Bennett),

There! Now fhat's, -straight!

And iri this marriage, Lois is ideally

happy. Nothing .('except, perhaps, radio

work) gives her greater pleasure than

making tiny garments for baby Jane,

or repairing the damage that John and

Joan, two bright, active youngsters, do

to. their clothes; There's plenty that can

happen' to .clothes, too., .in' .Gape .God,

where the family make their home. It

is. as you know, a fishing center, and

one of Lois' hobbies is to go crabbing.

No, not criticising the neighbors, but

dropping a string with a. piece, of meat

on the end. of it off- a bridge. Waiting

for the telltale, quiver of the. line and

then—oh, so carefully.—hauling the cfkbs

to the surface.

"You can tell how much I like it:

look!" she exclaimed, rolling up her

sleeves, and- revealing one of the finest

sets of freckles, it has ever been the " . ■ • * ■ •>' . , ✓ *

pleasure -of this; writer to observe. The

gardenia-like, skin of red.-headed women

is so susceptible to the sun.

She also enjoys driving. "No," she

said, "I'm not fond of speeding. Why,

it took me nearly eight hour's to get

from Home to the studio." , .

Her home is about three hundred

miles from New York, by road, and she

stopped an hour for -lunch. That means

she: averaged more than forty miles an

hour over all sorts of roads and through

traffic.

Well, I hope Lois never decides to be-

come a -'speed demon.

CONRAD THI.BA.ULT, too, l-ik.es

riding. But he, uses a hayburner in-

stead of a coupe. "I. figured that as long

as I was going to play Jack Hamilton,

a westerner," says Conrad, who was

born- in Northbridge, Massachusetts, "I

ought to learn how, to stay on top Of a

horse. The 'other day I took my first

lesson. The riding, master said we

shouldn't go very far on the first trip,

but might do more mileage on the next.

So we rpde_ fifteen miles the first time

out,, and he couldn't understand why.I

didn't get stiff. A couple of days later,

On the second ride, we went twenty-five,

I guess I must be a cowboy at heart

and in the legs."

I asked him how he. liked the idea of

being a hero for a change, instead of

just the unsuccessful .suitor for a lady's

band that he has- always been in the

Sko'ivboaf programs. .(You know how

"Lanny" is always .head man with

"Mary Lou.")

He said, "It's going to be grand to

have a soprano to myself for a change;

and not have to share her with a blond

tenor. I never- could understand why

tenors were always the. great lovers in

shows, anyway, because baritones are

much better lovers off stage. Do you

remember the bid axiom of show busi-

ness:—The tenor gets the girl on the

stage—but the baritone's waiting in the

wings!"

That's the sort of fellow Conrad is—

gay, with .a laugh on his Hps. He's very

dark, slim; and a little above average

height. I heard two girls in the corri-

dor, wondering "who was that grand

man with the cute dimples."

But Conrad isn't one of the upstage

stars, spoiled, by public adulation. He's

•a simple souh No puttees -or boots and

riding breeches were his when he

climbed aboard his horse. "He wore a

pair of old golf pants and sneakers. He

says It horrified the grooms—biit the

horse didn't seem to care.

Conrad Thibault Was born- on No-

vember J 3,, 1905. And-'did..the 13 bring

him any; bad luck? "No," he' says, "I've

always had good luck, and 13 has been

-my lucky .-number."

HE' NEVER talks about the tragedy

tn his life—a loss that., might have

meant the end of his career, had he been,

.less resolute in chara'cfer.

Before Conrad was famous, he came

to New York and took a job as floor­walker in a department store, to earnenough money to pay for singing les­sons. I t was a tough grind, working allday and then studying half the night,but there was a girl in :Northampton,where he had lived since he was four­teen. She was a singer-the m 0 s tcharming girl Conrad had ever known­and they were engaged. After a year hadpassed, he went back home, married thegirl, and won a scholarship at the CurtisInstitute of Music in Philadelphia. wherehe studied under Emilio de Gogorza,the famous operatic baritone.

Another year and, though continuinghis studies, he was signed by the Phil·adelphia Grand Opera Co. At first heplayed small parts, but finally rose untilafter four years he was singing the roleof Volentine in "Faust," Stbastiano in"TiAan," and other leads.

One day he walked into the NBC sta­tion in Philadelphia, auditioned and wasgiven a small sustaining program. Sometime later Bill Bacher, who writes"Showboat" heard Conrad 5 i n gin gGwi"t! to Hcbben a spiritual, in Interno­tionol Titbits, and asked him to give anaudition.

That was the day Conrad and hiswife had dreamed of throughout theirmarried lives-the day of success thatcrowns the early struggles of any artist,But Mrs, Thibault was taken ill, and anhour after he got on the train, was takento the hospital.

Well, like all Thibault auditions, thisone was a success. He was signed anda special part-that of Conrad-was writ­ten into the show for him, He got onthe train, to go back and share his joywith his wife. But when he got there,she was dead.

H E KNE\'" that she would havewanted him to carryon, and he

did so. He has broadcast on a largenumber of popular programs, amongthem being Showboat, the Cerlo Motjnet,the Castoria show for forty weeks with

Albert Spalding, the Philip ~iorris pro­gram, and several others.

His ambition is to go back into grandopera some day, preferably at the )'ietro·politan. \AJhile he likes radio audiencesbetter than bloated box·holders, he says,"It'll be great when I can just do mynumbers and take my time-when Idon't have to cut a chorus to save forty­eight seconds,"

Conrad was selected, Carlo De Angelo,producer of the Ivory Soap Operas, con­fided. after he had auditioned a hundredand fifty male singers "trying to getsome one who sounded like ConradThibault." There wasn't anyone elsewho did, and they had to get Conradhimself to play Jack Hamiltoll. Miss Ben·nett, too, was selected as being easily thebest of some seventy·five sopranos whowere auditioned for the role of SaJl~T Gib·son.

A~D De Angelo knows how to pick

them. He has staged many of theforemost shows on the air, and believesThe Gibson Family to be the biggest andbest radio program he has ever devised.

A few months ago he got the idea forThe Gibson Family. Everybody said thata musical comedy specially written forradio couldn't be done. It never hadbeen done before, and they were surethat it would run short of material. SoDe Angelo smiled and went ahead anddid it. He and his writers experimentedfor five months. Finally they finishedthe first six episodes, each of which iscomplete in itself, though continuitycarries over from week to week. They'regoing to keep six weeks ahead with itright along.

I wondered how he happened tochoose a baritone for the lead instead ofthe conventional tenor. "Men," he ex­plained, "prefer a baritone; they don'tsuspect him of having something uphis sleeve, especially a handkerchief.\Vomen, too, prefer baritones, I think.They sound more masculine." He's prob­ably right, as witness the success ofCrosby and Columbo.

One day he walked into the NBG sta-

given a small sustaining program. Some

"'Showboat5' heard Conrad singing

Gwinc to Hcbbcn a spiritual, in Interna-

audition.

That was the day Conrad and his

crowns the early struggles of any artist.

But Mrs Thibault was taken ill, and rah

hour after he got oti the train, was taken

to the hospital.

Well, like all Thibault auditions; this

one was a success. He was signed and

HOURISHI HE :~:~:A~:50

This group embraces a crew of strangebedfellows, Senator Elmer Thomas,James Rand, Jr., Frank Vanderlip, andothers, including some "Wall Streetbankers" against whom Father Cough­lin has been so bitterly denunciatory.But these are \Vall Street bankers witha difference. They happen to think ashe docs on inflation.

W HILE Father Coughlin does notfind it politic to seek open identi·

fication with the Committee for the Ka­tion, it is well known that he is deepin the Committee's confidence, advisedby its bankers and statesmen, served byits research bureau.

In return Father Coughlin has ren­dered the Committee a valuable serviceby disseminating its credos to a vastaudience it could not otherwise reach.

By past performance and activity, bycommon goal and belief, Father Cough.lin has identified himself with the Com­mittee for the Nation.

During the past winter the Committeeremained on friendly terms with the Ad­ministration. Like a bunch of juicy car­rots, it dangled its inflationary plans andprospects before the Democratic donkey,in hopes it would jog it on to expandedcurrency. But as Congress passed oneinflationary measure after another underRoosevelt's urging and still extreme in­flation did not become a reality, it grewapparent that these measures were toremain mostly "permissive."

In other words, the President couldput them into effect if he chose. Thelast straw came when the inflationists,with their hopes raised by the nationali­zation of silver, saw them summarilydashed this summer when only fifty mil­lion dollars of currency was issuedagainst that silver. By this time it wasclear that the inflationists had little tohope from Roosevelt, who seemed defi­nitely committed to a middle of the roadpolicy.

In the meantime, the President hadon his side ceased to look with favoron the inflationist group. It was rumoredin \Vashington that it was the inflation­ists who had instigated the red scare oflast spring. perhaps either in an attemptto coerce the President into ~eaning

towards their policy or to weaken hisposition. At any rate, when the Presi­dent emerged from the teapot tempeststronger than ever the inflationists wereno longer welcome at the \Vhite House.

~{onetary reform or extreme inflationhas always been the spearhead of FatherCoughlin's attack against the social sys­tem. As the gulf widened between thePresident and the Inflationists, so didthe opposition between the President andFather Cou$hlin increase. When hetouches on mAation during his broad­casts this fall. the chances are he wiltno longer hold his invective in leash orrestrain his oratory, hoping that the ad­ministration may catch up.

EXHIBIT B in the evidence to provethat Father Coughlin intends to op­

pose President Roosevelt and the Ad­ministration on the air waves this fallis the poll which he recently sent outto his members of the Shrine of theLittle Flower. This poll contains ques­tions so adroitly worded that they can-

not fail to result in a Rood of lettersto which he tan handily refer. urginghim to "crack down" on administrationpolicies.

These questions are as follows: "Doyou favor borrowing the nation intoprosperity by the present policy of issu­ing more bonds and thereby increasingtaxation?" and "do you favor destroyingthe nation into prosperity by the presentpolicy of slaughtering pigs, etd"

Both "borrowing" and "destroying"are fearsome words from which anyoneinstinctively recoils and can onty bringan overwhelming deluge of no's. In aletter accompanying the poll, FatherCoughlin states his opinions as follows:

"While I believe in regulating bothindustry and agriculture, nevertheless,I am opposed to their regimentation asthe sole meanl for restoring prosperity,Especially do I stand opposed to thepolicies of the Department of Agricul­ture which are wedded to the illusionthat our nation can become prosperousby slaughtering pigl. burning wheat.plowing under cotton and laying wasteGod's bountiful gifts when 10 many ofour fellowmen are hungry and naked•As I said last year. that was a PaganDeal.

'fThe break-down of our economic .ys­tern is directly related to money. Up todate the Treasury Department hal rtotserioU3ly attempted to remedy out finan­cial distress. Here the Old Deal is stillin vogue. It still persists in burdeningus with the non..productive debts. andcontinues to print more bonds for thegood of the international banken.

f'Now for the mairt point in this letter:Do you want me to preach IIAmen" bothto the sins of omission and cornnUs·sian which have beert perpetrated in thename of the New Deal, or do you expectme to teach what I consider to be thefinancial reforms which are necessary tosave our democratic republic? Do youwant me to oppose both reactionary poli.ticians as well as the new type of robberstamp Iycophants who prefer to followthe dictates of the "Dr&1n Trust" ratherthan the mandates of the voters?"

Coughlin vs. Roosevelt

[Continued from page 17]

NOMISHlNE

BEST FOR

GRAY HAIR

This group embraces a crew of strange

bedfeilows. Senator Elmer Thomas,

James Rand, Jr., Frank Vanderlip, and

others, including some "Wall Street

bankers" against whom Father Cough-

lin has been so: bitterly denunciatory.

But these are Wall Street bankers with

a difference. They happen to think as

he does on inflation.

WHILE -Father Coughlin does not

find it politic to seek open identi-

fication with the Committee for the Na-

tion, it is well known that he is deep

in the Committee's confidence, advised

by its bankers and statesmen, served by

its research bureau.

In return Father Coughlin has ren-

dered the Committee a valuable service

by disseminating its credos to a vast

audience it could not otherwise Teach.

By past performance and activity, by

common goal and beliefj Father Cough-

lin has identified himself with the Com-

mittee-for the Nation.

During the past winter the. Committee

remained on friendly terms with the Ad-

ministration. Like a bunch of Juicy" car-

rots, it dangled its' inflationary plans and

prospects^ before the Democratic donkey,

in hopes it would jog it oh to expanded

currency, But as Congress passed one

inflationary measure after another under

Roosevelt's urging and stilt extreme in-

flation did not become a reality, it grew

apparent that these measures were to

remain mostly "permissive."

In other words; the President could

put them into effect if he chose. The

last straw came when the- inflationists,

with their hopes raised by the nationalir

zation of silver, saw them summarily

dashed this summer when only fifty mil-

lion dollars of currency was issued

against that silver. By this time it was

clear that the inflationists had little to

hope from Roosevelt, who seemed defi-

nitely committed to a middle of the road

policy.

In. the meantime, the President had

on His side ceased to look with favor

on the: inflationist group. It was. rumored

in Washington that it was the inflation-

ists who had instigated the red scare of

last spring, perhaps either in an attempt

to coerce the President into leaning

towards their policy or to weaken his

position. At any rate, when the Presi-

dent emerged from the teapot tempest

stronger than ever the inflationists were

no longer welcome at the White House.

Monetary reform or extreme inflation

has always been the spearhead of Father

Coughliri's attack against the social sys-

tem. As the gulf widened between the

President and the Inflationists, so did

the opposition between the President and

Father Coughlin increase. When he

touches on inflation- during his broad-

casts this fall, the chances are he will

no- longer hold his invective in leash or

restrain his oratory, hoping that the ad-

ministration may catch up.

EX'HIBTT B in the evidence to prove

that Father Coughlin intends to opr-

pose President Roosevelt and the Ad-

niinistration on the air waves this fall

is the poll which he recently sent out

to his members of the Shrine of the

Little Flower: This poll contains-ques-

tions so adroitly worded that, they can-

50

not fail to result in a flood of letters

to which he fcan handily refer, urging

him to "crack down" on administration

policies.

These questions are as follows: "Do

you favor' borrowing the nation into

prosperity by the present policy of issu-

ing more bonds and thereby increasing

taxation?" arid "do you favor destroying

the nation into prosperity by the present

policy of slaughtering pigs, etc?"

Both "borrowing" and "destroying"

are fearsome words from which anyone

instinctively recoils and can only bring

an overwhelming deluge of no?s. In a

letter accompanying the poll, Father

Coughlin states his opinions as follows: %

"While I believe in regulating both

industry and agriculture, nevertheless,

I am opposed to their regimentation as

the sole means for restoring -prosperity.

Especially do I stand opposed to the

policies of the Department of Agricul-

ture which are wedded to the illusion

that our nation can become prosperous

by slaughtering pigs, burning wheat,

plowing under cotton and laying waste

God's bountiful gifts when so many of

our fellowmen are hungry and naked.

As i said last year, that was a Pagan

Deal.' ,

"The break-dovm of our economic sys-

tem is directly related., to money. Up to

date the Treasury Department has not

seriously attempted to remedy out finan-

cial distress. Here the Old Deal is still

in vogue. It still persists in burdening

us with the non-productive debts, and

continues. to print more bonds for the

good of the international bankers.

"Now fpr the main point in this letter:

Do you want me to preach "Amen" both

to the sins of omission and. commis-

sion which have been perpetrated' in the

name of the New Deal, or do you-expect

me to teach what I consider to be the

financial reforms which are necessary to

save our democratic republic? Do you

want me to oppose both reactionary poli-

ticians as web as the new type of rubber

stamp, sycophants who prefer to follow

the dictates of the "Drain Trust" rather

than the mandates of the voters?"

The agricultural recovery program,

the Treasury Department, the Brain

Trust, the bonded relief program, all

these he frowns on. It does not appear

that there is much in Administration

activities tliat-meets with Father Cough-

liri's approval; and if past performances

be any criterion, he will not mince words

in saying, so over the air.

TRULY it promises to be a battle of

the titans.

Father Coughlin has picked an ad-

versary of full stature this time. Here

is no Norman Thomas who once bit-

terly complained that he had no medi-

ums to reply in kind to Father Cough-

lin's. attacks. Here is no inarticulate

Communist Party. No Wall Street

bankers already in disreoute. No Al

Smith with popularity on the wane. But

a man still on the crest of unparalleled

leadership and power. His, too, is a

great and frequently heard radio voice.

He too can make eloquent appeal to mil-

lion's of listeners.

It is doubtful if the attack on either

H AS President Roosevelt on his sideanything to fear from the opposi­

tion of this one man who is, after all,only an unofficial voice? He has in­deed. From the present political lineup, it appears that Father Coughlin maybe in a position to harrass and embarrassthe President extremely in his fight forthe control of the next session of Con­gress, on several counts.

For one thing, Father Coughlin maybe able to bring pressure on a numberof Congressmen through urging lettersfrom his listeners to swing them intoline for inflation at a time when thePresident may feel that inflation wouldbe disastrous.

A sore point still wilt be the conten­tion over the cash payment of thesoldier's bonus, on which the Fatherhas always differed with the President.Just at a time when the President findsserious opposition from Congress on hishands, a timely volley from FatherCoughlin's pulpit may crystallize thatopposition into a crushing attack.

White criticism of the Administrationmay not have become more widespread,it has become more vocal during recentmonths. Especially has the cry againstincreasing taxation swelled to a chorusof lament. It is not unlikely that FatherCoughlin will make full use of this forcein swinging the malcontents into linein the march towards his treasured goatof inflation.

The steady progress of events whichFather Coughlin and the President shep­herded together has faltered. It. maynow go one way or another, and it is nottoo much to state that the course of thenation will be deeply influenced if notactually decided by the victory of oneor the other of these two great publicfigures this coming year.

Goughiin has far too shrewd and canny

a sense of mass reaction to criticize the

He will in all probability thunder

against the "Drain-Trust'," cry down the

to answer for him—if not directly, at'

precepts laid down by Father Goughiin

The President, of course, holds the

key position in the struggle and yet

ironically by his very position of power

is prevented from benefiting by it.

Through pressure on the Federal radio,

Just at a. time when the President'finds

that was the Oil Iv musical instrumentthe household pos·sessed.

Well, Dad would buy that piano inIndianapolis. ninety miles from Macy.To Indianapolis he went, accompaniedby his band. They·d kill two birds atone stroke and play at the political con­vention there, do their best for Bryan.They did and whooped it up consider­ably. Papa Duey came home, gay andhappy, as charming as ever, with emptypockets-and no piano. All the moneyhad gone for liquor.

L ITTLE Phil inherited his father·slove of music and the elder Duey's

hatred of the farm. He understood thathis kind, gentle father drank to escapefrom the sense of crushing defeat whichbecome more and more pressing withthe years.

Phil needed an escape, too. But hislay not in drink-he has never toucheda drop of liquor in his life. His releaselay in practicing on that wheezy oldorgan. \Vrapped up in his music, heforgot his humiliation.

Every day he could be spared from thefarm he trudged five miles back andforth to and from school. With the les­son of his father's wasted life beforehim he never faltered. He worked hisway through college and finally secureda scholarship from the Juilliard Schoolof Music in New York, where he de­veloped his voice and improved his pianotechnique. Then came musical comedy,concerts and radio work-he had arrived.

Today he is the featured singer on thePhillip Morris hours and we·ve all heardhim time and again with the Men AboutTown, on the General Motors, WonderBakers programs and a dozen others.

miserable, he would wrest enough to goto the big city, to achieve a career, andto give his mother and sisters all thelovely clothes they yearned for.

)lever once did he feel bitter resent­ment toward his father, only compassionand understanding. "It isn't pop's fault,"he argued with his ten brothers and sis­ters. And it wasn't. The elder Dueyhad come to Macy, Indiana, back in the1870's, and settled on a 160-acre farm.Then he was a brave young pioneer, withlife before him and his lovely, optimisticbride by his side. 'With the years, hishopes became dimmer and dimmer. Thenever-ending round of farm chores, offeeding the cattle, of planting and har­vesting and threshing, wore a man down.

Shame Made Duey A Radio Star![ContimlCd from page 37]

N E\¥ machinery would ease his bur­den; but where to get the money

for it?Alfred Duey had turned to music for

solace, for he was a natural musician.It was he who organized and conductedthe town's brass band of eighteen pieces,who coached the men till they becamer{'nowned throughout the state. Andtherein lay his downfall.

For the band was invited very often toplay at state festivals, where wine andstronger liquor flowed freely.

There was the time, back in 1908,when Vvilliam Jennings Bryan and vVil­Ham Howard Taft were running a neck­to-neck race for the presidency. Theyear's crop of wheat and corn, goodcrops for a change, left a profit, largeenough to get new outfits for the chil­dren and Mrs. Duey, and to buy a realupright piano, instead of the wheezy oldorgan, afflicted with permanent asthma,

miserable, he would wrest enough to go

to the big city, to achieve a career, and

to give His- .mother and sisters all the

Jbvely clothes they yearned for.

Never once did he feel bitter resent-'

ment toward his father, only compassion

and understanding. "It isn't pop's fault/1

he argued with his ten brothers and sis-

ters, Arid it wasn't. The elder Duey

had come to Macy, Indiana, back in the

IS^O's, and settled on a 160-acre farm..

Then he was a brave young pioneer, with

lite before him .and his lovely, optimistic":

bride"' by his side. With the years, His

hopes: became dimmer and dimmer. The

never-ending round of farm chores, of

feeding the cattle, of planting and har-

vesting and threshing, wore a man down.

NEW machinery would' ease his bur-

den; but where to" get the money

for-it?

Alfred Duey had turned to music for

solace, for he was a- natural .musician..

.It was he who organized and conducted

the town's brass- band of eighteen pieces,

who coached the men till, they became

renowned throughput the: state. And

therein lay his downfall.

For the band was invited very often to

play at state festivals, where wine and

stronger liquor flowed freely;

There, was, -the. time,, back in 1908,

when William Jennings Bryan and Wil-

liam Howard Taft were'Tunning a neck-

to'-neck race for the presidency. The

year's crop of wheat and corn, :goo:d

crops for -a change, left a profit, large,

enough to get hew outfits for the chil-

dren' and Mrs. Duey, and to buy a real

upright piano, instead of the wheezy, old

organ, afflicted with permanent asthma,

that was the onlv musical instrument ■, ■ ♦

the household possessed.

Well, Dad would buy that piano in

Indianapolis, ninety miles from Macy.

To Indianapolis he went, accompanied

by his band. TheyM kill two birds at

one stroke and play at the pplitical con-

vention- there, do their best for Bryan.

They did and whooped it up consider-

ably. Papa Duey came home, gay and

Happy, as charming as ever, with empty

pockets—and no piano. All the money

had gone for liquor.

LITTLE Phil inherited his. father's

love of music and the elder Duey's

Hatred of-the farm. He understood that

his kind, gentle father drank to- escape

from the sense of crushing defeat which

become more and more pressing with

the years.

Phil needed an escape, too. But his

lay not in drink—he has never touched

a drop of liquor in his life. His release

lay in practicing On that wheezy old

organ. Wrapped tip in his music, he

forgot his' humiliation

Every day lie could be spared from the

farm- lie trudged five mires, back and

forth to and from school. With the les-

son of his father's wasted life before

him he never faltered; He worked 'his

way through college- and finally- secured

a scholarship from the Juilliafd School

Of Music in New York, where he de-

veloped his voice and improved his piano'

technique. Then came musical, eomedy,"

concerts and radio work—-he had arrived..

Today, he is the featured singer on. the

Phillip Morris hours .and we've all heard

Him time .and again with the Men .About

Town, on the General Motors, Wonder

Bakers programs and a dozen others.

T HERE didn't seem to be anythingSylvia could do about it. Forty years

ago doctors pooh-poohed weight correc­tion theories except as cures for specificdiseases.

"If you think 1 am exaggerating theeffect of overweight, let me tell yousomething," she said slowly. "Everyweek I get thousands of letters fromawkward, overweight adolescents inwhich they pour out their hearts. Theywant, oh so hard, to ha\'e gorgeous fig­ures. to be lik~ other boys and girts; andinvariably their parents and friends donot understand their burden,"

Sylvia Wilhelmson knew little of dietor exercises. But she realized if she didnot eat she could not gain weight andthat if she cut out butter and sweets,obviously, she would be that muchlighter. So she literally starved herself;also shc'd go walking for hours and doall kinds of crazy exercises.

U\Vhen 1 stop to think of the way 1tortured myself, it's a wonder 1 am alivetoday," she told me. "I was almost wildwith joy when 1 began to lose weightand began to pore over all the medicalbooks 1 could lay my hands on. It tookme several years of trial and error towork out a system of corr~cting fattytissue:'

friendship of boys, that terrible curse ofsurplus fat descended upon me."

Sylvia was utterly miserable. Over­night it seemcd she had become an out.cast and she'd shut herself in her roomand cry for hours. "That little tub,"was the way people referred to her.Each time it hurt like a sword-thrust.The butt of all jokes, she was horriblyself-conscious and tried to hide herselffrol11 people.

Madame Sylvia[Colltinut'd from page 37]

FEMALE m.assellses were practicallyunheard of thirty years ago, so Sylvia

studied nursing and saw active trainingat the Front during the \Var. At thehospital, one of the doctors, interestedin her story, gave her lessons in massag­ing so she could knead and slap andpound fat away harmlessly.

For awhile, she pursued her professionin Bremen, Germany. In 1922 she cameto Chicago to start her massaging busi­ness. But no one wanted to trust herface and figure to a tiny, vitriolic, foreignand unknown masseuse who half beatyou to death as part of the reductiontreatment.

After a year of very tough sledding,during whieh she never made 1110re than$20 a week, she migrated to Hollywood.Again people turned deaf ears on herideas, till a doctor suggested she treatMarie Dressler, who was ill and terriblyoverweight. Marie Dressler was so im­pressed that she rccommend~d her toother movie stars, and Pathe gave her a$750 a week contract to get their moviekings and queens into trim. Radio broad­casting was the next step, and now youhear her every \Vednesday night at 10:15p.m., lecturing on health and beauty,and diet.

She firmly believes that her work is asvital as all engineer's or a teacher's."For women." she says, "beauty is hap­piness. And you can not be beautiful ifyou are fat."

YEARS later, :\1:r, Tibbett was cast tosing Jack Rance, the sheriff in a re­

"The cowboys didn't act like any cow­boys I had ever seen. For instance. inthe celebration at the end of the operathe director had these supposedly toughcow hands throw their amlS around oneanother and express their jubilation bykissing each other on the cheek in thebest Latin manner. In the scene wherethe sheriff enters searching for Johnson,the bandit, the director told me to comein crouching with my six shooter heldat arm's length in front of me. I obeyedand felt more like Annette iCellermandoing the Australian crawl than I didlike a sheriff. This will never do, I said.

.. 'Poofl' said the director, '\Vhat doesan opera singer know about sheriffs?' Itold him what I knew about sheriffs.'Ohl' he said apologetically and shrankaway from me. 'Oh, then we shall do ityour way.'

There was a little boy who from theage of nine to twelve wrote Mr. Tibbetteach week, and to whom Mr. Tibbettreplied regularly and willingly. Theystruck up a surprising friendship. Ithappened this way. The youngster wroteLawrence a fan letter, praising his radiobroadcast and giving his intelligent viewson music in general. The little boywrote from a hospital in Canada, wherehe lay on his back in a cast, due to anautomobile accident. Mr. Tibbett foundupon inquiry the child would never walkagain, and, amazed at the boy's graspand love of music, they corresponded tothe end. The little white bed in that faraway hospital has another patient in itnow, and the great singer is missing hisweekly letter, for his small correspond­ent has gone on a far away voyage.

afraid of me. I believe he did not entirely

understaind my English. He thought I

was the one who had done all the. killing

I had told him about."

There was a little boy who from the

age of nine to twelve wrote Mr, Tibbett

each week, and to whom Mr. Tibbett

replied regularly and willingly. They

struck up a surprising friendship, It

happened this way. The youngster wrote

Lawrence a fan_ letter, pfai'sihg his radio

broadcast and giving His intelligent views

on music in general. The. little boy

wrote from a hospital in Canada, where

he lay on his back in a cast; due to an

automobile iaccident. Mr. Tibbett found

upon inquiry the child would never walk

again, and, amazed at the boy's grasp

and love of music, they corresponded to

the end. The little white bed in that far

away Hospital has another patient in it

now, and the great singer is missing his

weekly letter, for his small correspond-

ent has gone on a far away voyage,.

_ This thirty-six year old All American

singer received every bit of his musical

training in the United .States, and Chine

is one of his favorite songs. It's only

in the, movies that he has. curly hair, and

that's because Hollywood, feeling heroes

should be wavy-headed, made him have

a permanent wave!' He swears he never

left his house for a month afterward, so

mortified was he.

appear at the smart, exclusive Simplon

Club, scene of Helen Morgan's greatest

success.

The night of her debut, all New York

seemed to be .present. Frances sang

with all her heart. The blase audience

soon forgot the* other great singer, who1

made pianos useful for other things than

to play on.

Encore after encore was demanded.

As she complied with the requests, she.

noticed a pair of piercing, strange eyes

constantly upon her. Intelligent eyes

they -were tdo. At the end. of her re-

cital, a card was presented—the pair of

eyes wanted closer inspection.

That's how Frances Langford met

George Jean Nathan, critical genius,

whose scathing criticism has made many

a singer stay up nights, either tearing

her hair out, or swearing to tear out

Nathan's.

Nathan, raconteur, and brilliant man

of .letters, saw in Frances Langford un-

adulterated charm, sweetness, and amaz-

ing dramatic possibilities.

The town criers buzzed again. Broad-

way's Three Musketeers, W i n c h e 11,

Sobol, and Sullivan, trailed them at

every gala opening night.

One wag remarked that at last George.

Jean Nathan had stayed to see the last

act of a play. Why? Because Frances

Langford was anxious to see the villain

get his. just deserts. But Nathan's eyes

were seldom on the stage.

Frances langford doesn't- ipve

Nathan. She respects him. When he

told her to take dramatic lessons, she

did. When be give her valuable point-

she-carried them out.

Recently, four major film companies,

Paramount, Fox, Warner Brothers, and

RKG, took important screen tests, of the

NBC star. It may not be long before

you will have to see Frances to hear

her.

I saw Frances the last time she ap-

peared in vaudeville. Behind the foot-

lights she looked for all the world like

a sparkling Park Avenue debutante.

Faultlessly groomed, she sang her little

songs, with poise and polish.

When I met Frances at a Joe Cook

rehearsal, she seemed like a different

girl She scampered about like a high

school kid. upsetting the wavy locks of

conductor Don Voorhees; playing pranks

on The Master of Sleepless Hollow him-

Fashion hints on the new winter

BARRING unexpected legacies there

is nothing so he art eh i n-g to a

woman as a new hair style. . . .

Why not 'startle yourself, and your

friends by adopting a new, coiffure—one

that is fresh from: Fifth .Avenue salons,

one 'that ■harmonizes, perfectly with the

1935 mode in hats and gowns , ... ?

There are two important features of the

new winter coiffures,; -first, the hair is

decided}}- up and off . the neck aiid sec-

ond, there are lots of flat, round sculp-

ture curls but few waves, and those few

must be wide and flah-^as a contrast to

the masses of curls.

So many of my readers have written

complaining that they cannot reconcile

the demands of the new hair mode with ■ ■■ ^ *

plain, every-'day practicalitv. One dis-

traught woman wailed; "It's- .all very

well for hairdressers to tell me to have

curls piled high above the neckline, but

my experience has been that the curls

tumble down as soon as I leave my

beauty shopl"

To answer her, as well, as; dozens of

others, who have similar -problems', I had

a famous hairdresser design a smart,

practical' coiffure .for Miss Virginia

Clark, a busy young radio star, who says

flatly • that she hasirt time to go to her

hairdresser oftener than once a week,

You see the hair style pictured here, and

Tim -sure you'll agree that it combines:

last-minute style with wearable quali-

ties. Smooth and sleek around the face,

the 'hair is, swirled around the back of

the head of the left side where the ends

are arranged, in a' vertical row of flat

curls that climb high on the head.

Simple enough for daytime or office

wear, and beautifully adapted to the

new berets, this style is elaborate

enough for evening wear.

F COURSE you can't expect any

hair style featuring, curls to stay

in place more than five minutes unless

you have a really good permanent wave.

So don't attempt to copy this hair style

with only the remains of an old Spring-

time wave :n the, ends of your hair! Have

a ti'ew wave, one that will impart plenty

of body and .elasticity to your hair. There

is ah excellent' system of permanent

waving that produces' smoother waves

and tighter ringlets than any' other I'm

familiar with. It is a" favorite of most

I F YOU are already biting your nailsover )'our Christmas list, let me solve

the problem of what to give to all fe­male friends and relations. One oithe two gift ensembles put out by amanufacturer noted for his harmonizedcosmetics. The larger and more expen­sive of these sets contains eight full sh'eitems-deansing cream and skin frec;;h­ener, in addition to powder, rouge, lip­stick, mascara, e:ye shadow and pencil.Reposing in a lovely red, gold and blackbox, these cO!\llletics look so invitingthat you simply couldn't resist them evenif you ' ....anted to.

The other ensemble, also in a specialChristmas box of red and gold. contain"a double compact and an indelible lip­stick. The compact. which is smartlyblack and gold, is the most convenientcontraption of its kind I've e....er used.It has a compartment for loo~e powderthat releases just enou~h for one appli­cation and, separated from this sectionby an unbreakable mirror, is the cakerouge. There's no possibility of gettingyour powder and rouge scrambled as isthe case with so many double compacts.This outfit cost .. $2.50 and the completemake-up kit $6.50.

Another pre!iient your skin would ap­preciate is a jar of all-purpose cream, anew preparation that cleanses. lubricate~and rejuvenates. Its all-in-one proper­ties are due to three separate ingredients,a mincral oil for c1can~ing, a refined\'Cgetable oit for lubricating or "nourish­ing" and turtle oil for rejuvenating.It's white and unperfumed and simplylovely to use.

I WAS

TOO

FAT

r

T JUST LOVE to dance—always did. But

A it got so tlae men simply "would.not ask

me. I could see them looking my way—

and shrugging their shoulders. It was

heartbreaking, but there didn't seem to

be. a single •thing I could do.

Finally 'someone told me about Mar-

mola—how it contains a natural correc-

tive for abnormal obesity, known and rec-

ommended by physicians the world over.

It sounded so easy I just couldn't be-

lieve ray ears! But I took Marmola

exactly as directed—4 tablets a day—and

imagine my astonishment to find myself

actually getting thin! Without exercising,

dietin g, or drain ing my system wi th drastic

purgatives 1Now I'm slender—feel fine.

.... If the thousands of women who

have reduced the Marmola way were to

take you into their confidence, you

would probably be amazed how. many

would tell you experiences similar to

that related above. Everything they ate

"seemed tpgo to fat." Bo you know why?

Physicians^wili tell women that abnor-

mal obesity is caused by the lack of an

important element which the body ndn-

mally supplies. Marmola provides one

such element in a perfectly natural way.

Day by day it assists the body to function

in the reduction of excess fat. As they get

rid of excess fat they feel lighter, more

alert, more energetic. The excess fat

simply slips away, revealing the trim

and slenderfigurermdemeath.

Since 1907, more,than 20 million pack-

ages of Marmola. have been purchased.

Could any better recommendation be

had? And it is "put up by one of the lead-

ing medical laboratories of America. .

Start today! You will soon experience

Marmoia's benefits. When you have gone

far enough, stop taking Marmola. And

you will bless the day.when you first' dis-

covered this marvelous reducing agent!

Marmola is on sale by all dealers.

beauty operators, so you ■won': have

trouble finding a shop featuring it.

If your hair is naturally wavy on top

but: with limp ends, you can have the

ends- alone waved on crotjuinole. rods.

But if your hair is thin and fine, you'll

need an all-over wave to provide more

bulk. You, needn't be afraid your ring-

let ends will straighten out after a few

weeks, either. They'll be just .as tight

in three months as they were when you

got .them. If you, want I he trade name,

of this system, do write me a note.

Because the new hairstyles are so ro-

mantic, it-is necessary to give a thought

to the condition of the hair itself, for

dull, lustreless hair just vaon-i look ro-

mantic, no matter how it is arranged.

If your hair is- rather dispirited and

mousy looking, you'd better treat it to

a good rinse after each shampoo. There

is an unusually effective vegetable rinse

on the market that uncovers the natural

sheen of your hair by removing the

greyish soap film water rinsing can

never -wash away, and that -gives it a

delicate suggestion of- tint—-just enough,

really, to heighten the natural color and

highlights. It. coines in twelve shades

ranging, from platinum to blackl A two-

rinse package costs only 10 cents. Til

be more than pleased do send yog the

name.

IF YOU are already biting your nails

over your Ghristmas list, let me solve

the problem of what to give to all fe-

male friends and relations. One of

the two gift ensembles put out by a

manufacturer noted for his harmonized

cosmetics. The larger and more expen-

sive of these sets contains eight full size

items—cleansing cream and skin fresh-

ener, in addition to powder, rouge, lip-

stick, mascara, ej'e shadow and pencil.

Reposing in a lovely red, gold and black

box, these cosmetics look so inviting

that you simply couldn't resist them even

if you wanted to.

The other ensemble, also in a special

Christmas box of-red and gold, contains

a double compact and an indelible lip-

stick. The compact, which is smartly

black and gold, is the most convenient

contraption of its kind I've, ever used.

It has a compartment for loose powder

that releases just enough for one appli-

cation and, separated from this, section

bj' an unbreakable mirror, is the cake

rouge. There's no possibility of getting

your powder and rouge scrambled as is

the case with so many double compacts.

This outfit, costs $2.50 and the complete

make-up kit $0.50.

Another present your skin would ap-

preciate is a jar of all-purpose cream, a

new preparation that cleanses, lubricates

and rejuvenates; Its all-in-one proper^

ties are due to three separate ingredients,

a mineral oil for cleansing, a refined

vegetable oil for lubricating or "nourish-

ing" and turtle oil tor rejuvenating.

It's white and unperfumed and simply

lovely to use, If you prefer dispensing

■with frills in skin care, and yet like to

give your skin all the basic treatments,

you'll like this "facial in .a jar." The

container is very decorative too—while

with a silver band around uhe tip. The

price is $1. Want the trade name?

Ancient fragments from lost and sup-

power within himself to bring success

and happiness.

The story of a

new and amazing

ered from the

known and un-

Jesus an d other

teachers, which

have been inistm-

derstood and sup-

pressed for 2,000

years, and which

reveal a strange inner power so dy-

namic and forceful that once contacted

may bring man fulfillment of his visions

of success, and- happiness, is told in a

5,000-word booklet, "Key to Your Inner

Power,5> recently compiled by Yogi

Alpha, noted American Philosopher and

Metaphy s ician.

He tells of his belief that all the laws

of the universe can be controlled because

the laws themselves depend upon the

great Universal Mind for their existence;

that every mind Is part of this universal

-mind, aiid if you learn to master and

to use this universal energy it can almost

overnight bring you many of the things

you desire most. He further believes and

teaches that this power is not limited to

.a fortunate few, but: is latent in every

P. <S.—/ Love You

Johiruy Mercer is the young Southern

lad who was originally featured by

Charlie Miller after most of the Broad-^

way publishers failed 1:0 see any talent

•in this very modest and unassuming

young man, Johnny has teamed up with

various individuals and in nearly every

case his songs have been at least in the

medium hit class. Pie has -to his credit

such outstanding songs as 'Larry Bones,

Fare Thee IVell To Harlem, Mardi Gras.

and Pnrilon My Soul hern slcccnt.

Pardon My Sonlhcrn /!cccni has al-

ready been one of the most played and

popular songs to freshen the air lanes

and our long-suffering ears; with a fresh

thought well-developed it couldn't help

but-click. And now again Johnny .es-

says: the- development of a very familiar

title, and 'in iWritmg the song he selected

Gbr.'doh jenkins as tire boy to fashion

the in eddy. Rhil Koraheiser is the lucky

publisher,

f t -might- be the story of any young

newlywed husband who is suddenly be-

reft of bis spouse as she goes, let us

say; on a short vacation. A very tender

and'simple thought, which would occur

in most any Jndiyidual's letter of such a

nature, is written around the title. P. S.—

I Love Von. With much of the ciual.ity

oi Let's Pal Oaf The Lights And Go To

Sleep, much of its high standard of melo-

dy and lyric, the boys bid fair to have a

very popular song which those_ of us

who like these lender and sentimental

popular songs will enjoy; at least it is

One from which yours truly really de-

rives great enjoyment in the rendition.

Strange

An English importation that is as

strange as the title might seem, is

Strange, a song that is somewhat remi-

niscent of IVhat fs This Thing Called

Lave and that finally turns out to be a

philosophic treatise on the vagaries and

paradoxes of love. Perhaps a mention

of a bit of its sad but true philosophy

might convey the entire import of the

song; the writers tell us that we delight

in striving, to achieve or win a certain

love, and when it is ours we then pro-

ceed to tear it to pieces—how often that

has- been true! • • • fti

Mills Music were ..a bit skeptical about

publishing it, and I don't blame theih.

The song is unquestionably far from be-

ing the' typical mass popular "appeal

thing, but it has in its potentialities'

enough of the qualifies of desire and.

very comparable to I Saw Sial'S in thatits melody when heard becomes the in­stant signal for all those, co::;peciaJ1y theyoung folks, who hear it to join in andsing along with it, which is one of thebest tests for the possibilities of a songhit. Irving Berlin, Inc., are the pub­lishers.

Caravan Songsr am sorTy I cannot indulge in rhap­

sodies of the three ~ongs from the Foxpicture ,vith the continental Quality andatmosphere Cal'G1.'all. !la Clw Clla seemsto have the IllOSt to offcr the dancebands. This number was recorded bythe Yankees. yours truly and Dot. Kayand Em. Of all the three songs it ismost likely to "catch on." It has a liltand a <:impte melody which at least willmake it a danceable and tuneiul compo­sition. For the other two, !lapps, 1'11IHappy and JVi'le SOllq, I can say verylittle. Certainly Sam Fox cannot be anytoo happy with this score on his hands.

Tumbling TumbleweedsTumbling TJllIlhlC'i('uds is a "'estern

hit dealing with that plant-likc phcnom­enon of the \Veslcm plainc:, which Illayaccount for the fact that the East hasbeen slow to take to its bosom this par­ticular R'lorification of the tumblewced.The song is an unusually long one andrather mournful. \\'hether or not it willcatch all in the Eac:t only time will tell.Its publisher is Sam Fox and it mU'lt bedone quite slowly, though it may seemto nevcr end.

J Saw Stars should reall\' ha,'e headedthis month's li:o.t of ~ongs: It is whatthe publishers term a "quick hit," not a"natural" like }'es 11"(' lIa'l/(' .l\~o Ba­lIallas, Goodlliqht S"-~'i'l'tliearl and La~\"

BOlles, but just a SOUl{ who~e melody andlyric instantly sweep it to a decisive butusually short-tiled victory. Its melodyis almost a dead-rinRer for a portion ofthe melody of one of the song hits fromFifty Million FI'ClICIIllIl'II, namely }"0Il'1'1'

I Saw Stars

I S(nv Sinrs shouk\ real]y have headed

this month's list or songs:. It is- wliat

the publishers term a 4'quick hit/7 not a*

"iiaturai'7 like Yes IVv Mow? Mo Ba-

nanas, Goodnight Szvttcilieai'i and Lazy

Bones, but just a song whose melody and

lyric instantly sweep it to a decisive but

usually short-lived victory, hs melody

is' almost a dead-ringer for a portion of

the melody of one of the song hits froirr

fifty iV/ HI ion frcjichnieti, namely y^n'tv

CoJ Thai Thhiy. However, this has not

seemed to .prevent the song from becom-

ing the No. 1 song in the course of less

than three weeks.

The three boys. Messrs. Goodhart

Sigler and Hoffman, may feel justly

proud at haying finally achieved that

Tin Pan Alley phenomenon, an out-

standing hit. Robbins Music arc the

publishers and the song should not be

played too slowly. Our Miss Padula

does an excellent job in presenting it.

Em Lonesome For You,

Caroline

I'm Lonesome For You, Caroline, is

the Joe Morris contriburion to the waltz

field this month. Written by Rene

Walker and thai old, pioneer, Joe Burke,

the. House of Morris, which has offered,

so many smash waltz hits in the. past

few years, believe that it is., anothcr

Caroliua Moon, which was one or their

selections not so many years ago.

Learning

Learning is another one of those songs

very com parable to / .Saw Stars in that

its melody when heard becomes the in-

stant signal for all those, especially the

young folks, who hear it to join in and

sing along with it, which is one of the

best tests for the possibilities of a song

hit. Irving Berlin, Inc., are the pub-

lishers.

Tumbling Tumblcxaccds is a Western

hit dealing with that phint-like pheno'm-

eupn of the Westem. ptaihs, which may

account for the fact .that: the East has

been slow to. take- to its bosom this par-

ticular glorification, of the tumblewocd.

The song is an unusuaHy long one and

rather mournful. Whether or not it will

catch on in the East only time will tell.

Its publisher Is Sam Fox and it must be

done quite slowly, though it may: seem

to never end.

Caravan Songs

I am -sorry I cannot indulge in rhap-

sodies of the three songs from the Fox

picture with the cbnlinehtal quality and

atmosphere Cora van. Ha Cha. CIut seems;

to have the' most to 'offer the dance

bands. This number was recorded by

the Yankees, yours truly and pot, Kay

and Em, Of all the three songs it is

most likely" to "catch on." If has a lilt

and a simple melody which at least will

make itv.a danccable. and tuneful cbmpo-

rirron. For thy other t\yo. Happy, I'm

Happy and iVinc Soug, I can say very

little. Gcrtuinly Sam Fox cannot be any

too happy with this score on his hands.

Just An Old Banjo} list • 111 Old Banjo is a dedication to

Eddie Peabody from the pens of Rosa­mund Johnson, Bartley Coc:tello andyours truly. It ha:; been a long timesince there has been a song of this type,like Ghost OJ TIr., r,i(IIiIi. Ti.l·O Guitarsand other epics dealing with the personalqualities of an instrument. \Ve dedicatedthi~ particular number to Eddie Peabodybelie .... ing that he, llIore than anyone ebe.epitomizcs the banjo. Our Yictor recordof it i~ onc of the lightc!'>t yet more fao;­cinating we ha\-e ever made. E. B.:'larks are the publishers, It must beplayed slow I)'.

"Kid Millions" SongsIn passing I would like to compliment

the writers and publi~hers of the songsfor the new Eddie Calltor-Goldwyn pic­ture, Kid J/ illiolls. Two at least arebound to be extremel:!o' popular-.,llI Earfl/IOf J!usic and lJ'1/(.',~ J/J' Ship Comcs Ill.

A,~ Ear/ul 0/ Mllsic is hauntinglyreminiscent of mally songs, which mayaccount for its immediate iricndlinessand catchiness, Further, too, it may beplayed brightly without damaging eitherthe lyric or the melody. which will beone of its be"t features when it is per­formed by bands that race madlythrough every composition. iI'lIm .l!yShip CO/1/CS I,~ will probably be thesmash hit fro111 the picture. It is theusual song of the individual who de­scribes just what he or she will do withhis millions when hi" or her ship comesinto port. \\·ritten down, especially tothe level of children, the song- has atender nursery-like fIuality in it" refer­ence to \Yalt Di~ney painting-. eighteenbutlers in the hall. and withal the adultis likewise appealed to in the promiseof automobiles of the fittest kind, and thelover of music gets the offer of Paul\Vhiteman's music and Bing Crosby'svoice: the melody is just proportionateto the quality of the lyric.

Originally written for the Ben MardenRiviera revue. it will cOllle to find its wayto many radio progratll~ due to its in­trinsic worth and fine construction.\Vhether Dorothy or Jim11lY deservesthe 11\ost credit i~ difficult to say; it isperhaps one of the in:H:lnces of a perfectbalancing of melody and lyric.

There are three pictures whose songsI would like to discuss.

Just An Old Banjo

Just jhi Old Be a to is a cledication to

Eddie Peabody from the pens of Rosar

.muiul Johnson, Bartley Coslellp and

yours truly. It has been a long time

since there has been a song of this type,

like Ghost Of The I'joTin. Tzoo Gniiars

and other epics dealing with the personal

qualities of an instrument. We dedicated

this particular number to Eddie Peabody

believing that he. more than anyone else,

epitomizes the banjo. Our Vicror record

of it is one- of the lightest yet more fas-

cinating we have ever made. £. B.

Marks are the publishers. It must be

played 'slowly.

Lost In A Fog

Jimmy McHugh and Dorothy Fields"

have done it again! if this composition,

Lost in /I Lay. fails to become a fair-

sized hit, then yours truly will be ready

to cease making- predictions in these cdl-

mnns,.

Qrigiually written for the Ben Marden

Kiviei-a revue, it will, eorne to li nd its way

to many radio progrriins clue to its. in-

trinsic worth ami (ine construction.

Whether Dorothy or Jim my deserves

the most credit is difficult to say'; it is

perhaps one of the instances of a perfect

balancufg-, of iticlody and lyric.

There arc three pictures whose song's.

I would like to discuss. However, the

songs fi;om College- Rhylhut, which fea-

tured Lanny Ross and Joe Penner, will

have to wait until next month as the

lyrics are still in the throes of change

and revision. The Gift Of Gal> tunes,

although lying on my desk, are still un-

p.erused by these tired eyes.

Kid Millions" Songs

In passing- I would like to compliment

the writers and publishers or the song's

for the new Eddie Gantor-Goldwyn pic-

ture, K id Mill ions. Two at least are

bound to be extremely popular—An- Earful

Of Music and W//n??i- jk/y Ship Comes In.

An Earful Of Music is hauptingly

reminiscent of many songs, which may

account for its immediate friendliness

and catchiness. Eurther, too, it may be

played brightly without damaging either

the lyric or the melody, which will be

one of its best features when it is per-

formed by bands that race madly

through every composition, IVhen My

Ship Comes In will, probably be the

smash hit from the picture. It .is the

usual song of the individual who de-

scribes just what he or she will do with

his mi 11 ions when his or her ship .comes

into port. Written down, especially to

the level of cliildren. the song has a

tender •mirsery-Hke quality in its refer-

ence to Walt Disney pamling, eighteen

butlers in. the hall, and withal the adult

is,, likewise appealed to in the -promise:

of- automobiles of- the fiiiest kind, and the

lover of music :gets the offer oj Paul

WhitemaiTs imisic _ and Bjng Crosby's

vpLGe; the melody is just proportionate

to the quality of the lyric.

R UDY VALLEE'S telephonic pro­pCI1<:.ities have won him renown

along Radio Row. Before he marriedthe now embattlcd Fay \Vebb, his callswcre lcngthy and frequent when busi­ness brought him cast. and away fromher. As recently as Septcmber of 1933,when Fay packed her bags and returnedto the parental roof. he used the longdistance in an effort to mend matters_One of those calls. possibly a record forprotracted conversation at the rate thenprevailing between K ew York and Hol­lywood, lasted nillety-scnn minutes.

Kow Rudy's phone messages are con­centrated on the beauteous blonde AliceFaye. There is an interesting bit ofRossip fro111 the movie Mecca concern­ing- Alice. \Vhen she was making 365:Viglzts fll I-!ol/'ywond she had an agree­ment with Fox producer Sol \\furzel by,....hich. in return for being on the setpromptly. and taking orders withoutquestion, she was permitted to be freefrom four to fj\'e each Thursdav after­nOOI1. That is the hour that the Valleebroadcast reaches the coast and. accord­ing to Alice's intimates, at about five orsix minutes after five, she would usuallybe on the telel>hone in her dressing roomfor an unconscionable length of time,with a call from New York.

Perhaps the most devoted couple inshow business is Al Jolson and RubyKeeler. A1's radio contract keeps himin New York: Ruby was compelled to

Love Laughs at Toll Calls

[Confirmed from, page 27]

DECEMBER, 1934

boys, rode through the streets to their

ho tel.

After the triumphant first night in

Tyrone, His .shoulders aching from the

slapping of entitu.s.iastic admirers-, his.

ears ringing/with. their cheers, Fred went

home. There was something missing.

He couldn't just place what it was but

something, lie knew, was lacking. Me-

chanically. he turned to the telephone.

He paused a moment, and then asked

the operator to get him Miss Evalyn

Nair in Eagle Rock, Cal. That was it.

Every night it had been his custom to

chat with Eyab'.n of the day's doing, and

now she wasn't here to chat with. But

the telephone" solved the problem.

If .you age-at all aslule, you can guess

the rest. The next night he- telephoned

again, -and the next night, too. Now

when Fred and Evalyn said good-bye

that afternoQn .in Grand Central station,

when she left for California, Fred didn't

realise he was in love with her. Nor did

Evalyn realize that she loved the dash-

ing ydung bandsman. But those phone

calls did the trick. One night, Fred, over

two thousand miles of wire, asked tlie

question. Evalyn hesitated about ten or

fifteen dollars worth", and then thrilled

a "yes." There were a lot more calls

between various Pennsylvania towns- and

Eagle .Rock to arrange the details of the.

wedding, for Fred is an impetuous young

man. but everything was finally" eotG

eluded, and the pair met in Chicago,

where the ceremony was performed.

Fred's bill? Well. from that, first call

from Tyrone to the last call before

Evalyn left to meet him for the wedding,

the aggregate phone bills were $1,800—

but have you ever seen Mrs. Fred War-

ing?

RUDY, VALLEE'S telephonic pro-

pensities have won him renown

along Radio, Row. Before he married

the now embattled Fay Webb, his calls

were lengthy and frequent when busi-

ness brought him cast, and awav from

her. As recently as September of 1933,

when Fay packed her bags and. returned

to the parental roof, he used the long

an eitort to rneud matters.

One of those calls, possibly' a record for

protracted conversation at the rate then

prevailing between New York and Hol-

h-wood, lasted ninety-seven minutes.

Now Rudy's phone messages are con-

centrated on the beauteous blonde Alice

Fayg. There is an interesting bit pf

gossip from the movie Mecca eoncern-

ing Alice. When she was, making A55,

C'.ights In Mbllyxi'ood she, had ah agree-

ment with Fox producer Sol Wurzel by

which, in return for being on the se:t

promptly, and taking orders without

questiori, she was permitted to be free

from -four to five each Thursday after-

noon, That is the hour that the Vallee:

broadcast .rehGhes the coast and, accord-

ing to Alice's intimates, at about five or

six minutes after five, she would usually

be on the telephone in her dressing room

for an unconscionable length of time,

with a call from New York.

ONE of the most prodigal of allradio's long-distance fiends was

Jack Pearl, during Ihe absence of hiswiie \Vinnie this summer. \\'innie ac·companied George Burns and GracieAllen on their trip to Eur,ppe, and dur­ing the time she was away, Jack's tele­phone bills were staggering. There isnothing of the Baron Munchausen's ex­aggeration in that, either, for I saw thebills with my own eyes, and I can quoteyou actual figures.

The Baron, I know for a fact, talkedto Winnie in London, Paris, Budapest,Vienna. and Munich-not once at eachplace, but in some cases several time!'-.On one of the Budapest calls, on whichthe rate was $3..L50 for the initial thrceminutes, Jack chatted so long that theitem on the bill reached $69.20. Therates to Paris and London are $31.50,but Jack's chats with \Vinnie, or "Doll"as he calls her, reached $95 and $100 re­spectively. He caIled her wliile she andGeorge and Gracie were in Russia, too.

On one occasion, Jack put in a callone night for \Vinnie in the Lido, atVenice, where a cable he had just re­ceivcd told him they were staying. Theoperator told him Mrs. Pearl was nolongcr there, but could be rcached atthe Excelsior Palace in Budapest. Jackrcfused to believe it, because of the cablehe had just received, but when he learnedthat the report charRcs would be $4.30anyhow. he instructed the operator to goahead and locate ~frs. Pearl wherevershe might he in Europe. The alert telc­phone company finally made the connec­tion between Jack's ~ew York apart­ment and 'Vinnie in the ExcelsiorPalace.

An amusing incident occurred whenJack called his wife in London. Afterthey had exchanged a few words. 'Vin­nie told him Gracie Allen wanted tospeak to him to say "helIo_" I t tookGracie so tong to say "hello" that by thetime Jack got through with the call, thebill had run Ul) to $93, and he had onlymanag-cd to exchange a couple of word~

with 'Vinnie.

Love Laughs at Toll Calls[Contililled from raye 63)

remain in Hollywood where she wasworking on a picture last summer. ButeHry night at midnight, or eight o'clockin Hollywood, :\1 would call Ruby. Hewould ask her ii she was tired. Hadshe had a hard day on the lot? He wouldtell her how much he missed her. Brief­ly he ,vould recount the business of theday. Then: "Good night, sweetheart.Sleep well."

Love Laughs at Toll Calls

[ContiriHcd from page 63J

remain m Hollywood where she was

working on a picture last summer. But

every night at niidnight? or eight o'clock

in Hollywood, Al would call Ruby. He

would ask her if she was tired. Had

she had a hard day on the lot? He would

teU her how much lie missed, her. Brief-

ly he would recount the business of the

day. Then: "Good night, sweetheart.

Sleep well/0 Often he would awaken

Jicr the following morning. During

Ruby's absence, Jblson's monthly tele-

phone bill ran in the neighborhood of'

five luindr.ed dollars.

Incidentally, there- is one radio star

who broadcasts weekly from Radio City,

and who has a girl friend in Hollywood

who has the art ofi economizing on tele-

phone' calls highly specialized- He and

the girl have a code which he weaves

into his broadcasts in the form of loving

messages, and that one night, at least,

there is no need for the regular call.

%

ONE. of the most- prodigal of all

radio's long-distance fiends was

Jack Pearl, during the absence of his

wife Winnie this summer. Winnie ac-

companied George Burns and Gracie

Allen on their trip to Europe, and dur-

ing the time she was away. Jack's tele-

phone bills were staggering. There is

nothing of the Baron MuncHausen's ex-

aggeration in that, either, for I saw the

bills with my own eyes, and I can quote

you actual figures.

The Baron, I know for a fact, talked

to Winnie in London, Paris, Budapest.

Vienna, and Munich—not once at each A

place, but in some case's several times.

On one of the Budapest calls, on which

the rate was $34.50 for the initial three

minutes, Jack chatted so long that the

item on the bill reached $69.20. The

rates to Paris and London are $31.50,

but Jack's chats with Winnie, or "Doll"

as he calls her, reached $95 and $.100 re-

spectively, He called her while she and

George and Gracie were in Russia, too.

On one occasion. Jack put in a call

one night for Winnie in the Lido, at

Venice, where a cable he had just re-

ceived told him they were staying. The

operator told him Mrs. Pearl was no

longer there, but could be reached at

the Excelsior Palace in Budapest. Jack

refused to believe it, because of the cable

he had just received, but when he learned

that the report charges would be $4.50

anyhow, he instructed the operator to go

ahead and locate Mrs. Pearl wherever

she might be in Europe. The alert tele-

phone company finally made the connec-

tion between Tack's New York apart-

ment and Winnie in the Excelsior

Palace.

An amusing incident occurred when

Tack called his wife in London. After

they had exchanged a few words. Win-

nie told him Gracie Alien wanted to

speak to him to say "hello." It took

Gracie so long to say "hello" that by the

time Jack got through with the call, the

bill Had run up to $95. and he had only

managed to exchange a couple of words

with Winnie;

OFTEN the telephone serves only to

fan the. flanie' of love. That was'

several weeks, during which his radio

programs originated from the NBC stu-

dios in .Radio City. Baker's wife came

east with him. and brought their young

bah)' daughter. They thought it might

be good for the bay to bask in Miami's

sunshine while .Phil remained m New

York. When Mrs. Baker left New York,

the Armour comic was very lonely, and

every night he called her in .Florida. One

night he lost his patience.

"Say, I've had enough of this tele--

phoning, honey," he said, "it's too tan-

talizing. I'm coming down."

There was no rehearsal of the Baker

show until two days later, so the ioiiow-

ing da}'. Baker caught a south bound

plane at Newark. Hew to Miami, spent

n tew hours with his wife and baby, and

then flew back to Manhattan in time for mB£t u

the rehearsal.

The tantalizing nearness yet farness

of the telephone worked in pretty 'much

the same way with Ed Lowry, The

comedian and his wife. Teddy Prince,

are extremely devoted, and have a lovely

home in Beverly Hills, in California.

When radio called Lowry to New York,

It was decided that Teddy should remain

behind and keep the home fires burning,

as it were. However. Ed called Teddy

long distance every night, but after just

one week of that, neither one could stand

it any longer, so Teddy packed her

things, closed the- house, and happed the

next plane for Newark and Ed's wasting

arms.

"VTOU know the beautiful tenor voice

1 of Robert Simmons, and you know,

too. if you've ever seen him, that he re-

joices in the distinction of being one of

radio's handsomest males. Yet he is

never seen with a girl. His intimates

know, however, that every other night

he sneaks off to a convenient telephone

booth, with a lot of change, mostly quar-

ters, clenched in his fist, and spends

several minutes in soft conversation with

a young lady in Marionsville. Missouri.

MarionsviUc is "back home" to Sim-

mons,

Another shy and uncoinmuntcative

young man of radio is hand-leader Lcn-

nie Hayton. Remember the films The

Bifi ttroiidcMst and f/Von/e While's .>Vn«-

dtilsF Did you notice a lovely, big-eyed

beauty named Dorothy Pnlver? Well,

if you did, you can uiulcrstand why Len-

nic calls Hollywood three or four times

each week, and why It is that his tele-

phone bills will average from a hundred

and fifty to two hundred dollars each

month. Lennie met Dorothy on the lot

while he was working in a picture with

his pal Bing Crosby, ami ever since he

has been a one-woman, although strictly

not a one-tclephonc-call man.

The people of show business and radio

are an impetuous lot. Letters are too

slow for the swiftly moving tempo of

I heir lives, and telegrams ^.sufficiently

expressive for their natural volatility.

So only the telephone can satisfy their

urge, and they make the best of it. Offi-

cials of the telephone company estimate

that during the past four years, because

of the lowering of rales and the. in-

creased speed with which calls may be

completed, traffic between New York

and the coast has increased more than

f^rty per cent—and while they blame the

increase on the lower rates and increased

efficiency, it takes no mathematical wiz-

ardry to figure out that radio has played

a little more than it?s fair share, too.

No wonder A. T. & T, is selling up

around a hundred and ten!
