Most gags for Burns and Allen, WFBM at 7:30 o'clock tonight; are written by George's brother, Willy. It takes, he says, about three days to write the gags and the same - time to “tie” in the continuity: for one broadoast. Willy, who has written: jokes: tor George and Gracie since - the team’s early’ days, likes to tell of the first broadcast. “We found out about the program just one day in advance,” explains Willy, “and that didn’t leave much time to prepare a 22- . minute dialogue. - We . wrote i but: didn’t have much chance ta polish. the lines. When the broad- | cast started, I was plenty wor- | ried.” : According to his story, he had a right to be, for George missed a line and became confused. Quick-witted Gracie immediately asked him the now famous, “Did

I tell you about my sister?” That was the start of an old vaudeville routine they both knew, and. with it they finished the program.

Nelson Eddy has a way to make a trio or even a chorus with his.own voice. No, don’t try to sing bass and tenor at the same time. Eddy can’t do that either, but: he has records - to ‘prove that he can:sing a complete chorus. - : It started as a joke one day- when he was experimenting with records ing equipment he has in his. heme. He first recorded: his own voice. Then he sang a harmony part as he played the first record, and got the two voices on a second record. ; He then repeated the process with _ the second record. .And so on until he had a complete chorus. Nelson found that it amused people, so now he has a series of recordings made in this fashion. ;

Victor Arden, whose drchéstra supplies music for the Revue de Paree (WIRE at 7 o'clock tonight) also is a composer. "Not long ago he was asked to write a score for a movie short after the picture had been started. With engineers, cast and orchestra costing about $1500 an hour speed = was essential, so he wrote the de~ sired tune in just six minutes. # " s

To Fred Allen, relaxation is just a word to be found in a dictionary. Radio's self-styled sourpuss starts a new program as soon as he coms pletes a broadcast. Often he. does better than that, for by working between his 8 o'clock broadcast (tonight on WLW) and the repeat show for the - West, he completes plans for the next Mighty Allen Art Players’ drama. -- Thursday sees the completion of the Art Players’ skit. He plaas Portland’s heckling routine on-¥Fri-day, and over the week-end he writes the Town Hall news,

Rehearsals start on Monday and from then until after the broadcast Fred seldom gets much sleep.
