Winter's Common Ailments, Survey of Sick Among Network Stars Reveals

HOOSIE ACTRESS ON PROGRAM

Helen Hayes Is Expected To Return Tonight After llness.

By RALPH NORMAN

A salary that runs to several figures and national radio fame is no assurance against winter's common ailments, colds and influenza. The networks have been scrambling programs and making last-minute substitutions because featured performers are ill, and a CBS premiere scheduled for last Wednesday night was postponed when Jessica Dragonette contracted influenza. Helen Hayes is expected to return to her NBC-Blue network program at 7 o'clock tonight to resume her serial, “Bambi,” after a laryngitis attack. Ruth Gordon took over the “Bambi” show while Miss Hayes was ~ ill. And Miss Hayes has done pinch hitting herself, once substituting.on ° “Radio Theater” for Margaret Sul- '

| lavan in “Peg of My Heart.”

. zn a 2 > If you have heard Miss Hayes’ radio programs, or have seen her on the stage or in movies, you are aware, of course, of her impeccable diction. - She recently explained, though, after being selected by the National Speech-Arts Fellowship to receive its annual gold medal for _ the finest diction and most effective ° speech for the year 1936, that her southern inflection almost cost her

TLL WSS A ®e a good job when she most needed it. ~ This defect, she says, was corrected by reading aloud Shakespeare’s sonnets and by exercising her tongue before a mirror. “I took a mirror, made all the _ horrible faces I could think of with" my tongue, twisted it all over the place,” she tells, now with consider= able amusement. “Perhaps the his= © tory of my .speech development is one of those cases of compensation. You know, they say that Weismuller learned to be a good swimmer _ because he had infantile paralysis - as a child.”

Radio’s foremost rustics, Lum and Abner, and Amos ’n’ Andy, queerly enough, escape winter's discomforts by going to California. Amos 'n’ Andy have been at Palm Springs for several weeks, and Lum and Abner made their last broadcast from Chicago last week. They will be heard on WLW at 6:30 o'clock tonight, broadcasting from the NBC studios in Los Angeles. On the same west-bound train with Lum and Abner was Elinor Harriot, en route to Palm Springs to work with Amos 'n’ Andy.

THIS DRESS designer insists that the wife should feel flattered, but I think He loses his claim when he uses the words “more beautiful and attractive.” Had he left out the word “more” he would have been correct. What the husband really does is not to compare but to contrast her with more desirable women. So instead of being flattered she should—well, I leave it to her ingenuity and command of language to make the appropriate remarks to him,

services the world needs from producers, merchants and owners are not precisely the same as those which it needs from priests or teachers. The primary service of the businessman is to satisfy human wants; that of the minister and teacher to improve human wants—to make us want better and nobler things. He thinks that the businessman who is too desirous of avoiding all suffering caused by competition would likely wreck his business. Thorndike thinks the way out is for the businessman never to lie in competing—never to degrade his common morality, always to play the rules of the game even if it be game of hagd hitting.

IT IS probable that walking 3 early is a slight indication of good mental development but talking at an early age is an even better sign. The first distinct words are uttered usually at about 10 months of age but if such words as “Mamma”

| and “Dada” are spoken earlier than

this it is an encouraging sign. Prof. L. M. Terman, psychologist, who has studied several hundred exceptionally bright children concluded most of them learn to talk earlier than average children.

NEXT—Is popularity necessary to success?
