Bing Crosby Back On Radio Monday New Quarter-Hour Show For Crosby NEW YORK (INS) — Bing Crosby returned to radio Monday night with his customary ease complicated slightly by the tightened limits of the 15-minutes CBS has allotted to him five nights a week ... > The song portions of the show were fine and the brief prospectus Bing provided at the start was paved with good intentions . . . Bing himself must have sensed the situation for at the finish he frankly apologized;,. "Forgive me, I must have got carried away with the sound of my own voice”. . . But that wasn't quite it . . . It simply boiled down to the constrictions of the quarter-hour, which led Bing to push his pace to a limit beyond the mood of his customary broadcasting banter ... Bing needs and deserves a more relaxed flavor than the hustle anch harried hurry-up of his first progrant, but it will be on CBS radio every week night more or less permanently from now on ... Frankly* we also suspect the producers are straining a little too heavily toward “angles” for small talk . . . Bing’s slyest fun has stemmed mostly from his old preference for literate,.,cheerful, harmless-ribbing small talk in a pure free-form fashion . . 1 Instead of letting the fun-fall where it may; Bing's braintrusC has decided to inject the sort of heavy-breathing benevolence that obtrudes in too / many maudlinstyle shows fronf'"Strike it Rich" on up . . '. Bing patted a few people on the conscience for their unusual private honesty, including — naturally—a golfer; a kid spelling bee runner-up. a hatchick who returned a fortune ... .Somehow*, this seemed more a manufactured "device than a fair estimate of Bijßg’a most effective.airy diversion, not because he wouldn’t appreciate and’ approve such morality, but because he would even seek to use it for his public purposes. But after a few shakedown cruises through the CBS air, Bing easily should sieve out the clumsy ingredients, for lie is truly a masterful craftsman, one of the few who can combine the hip and the pedantic to pleasant advantage. Monday night he said he would "lay on a few encomiums where they seem to belong”—and otherwise should fill the air with intelligence and. need we add, the most famous singing voice in the history of ears.
