The white-tail deer was of -great economic value to the early

settlers of the Eastern United States.

Its flesh was one of the most

reliable staples in the food supply. Yet, today, in spite of the heavy annual toll, the white-tail continues to thrive within sight of New York City, in the most densely populated areas of the United States. * % *

I THINK it would be the height # of folly, except for women trained in the use of firearms uhder exciting conditions. If a woman,

when alone, finds a burglar in the house, a good scream is worth a machine gun. If he has her covered with his gun, some women would foolishly grab for their gun and force him to shoot. Moreover, as one writer suggests, she would likely keep it in the bureau drawer and have to ask him to wait while she switched on the light and found it. Still, further, I fear many excitable women might’ shoot their husbands should they come home unexpectedly. When I leave home

2 PRECISELY the contrary. The most notable proof of this is, the letter addressed by six great business leaders to President Conant on the occasion of the Harvard Tercentenary celebration, signed by Walter S. Gifford, Alfred P. Sloan, Thomas G. Watson, Pierre S. du Pont, Owen D. Young and Walter C. Teagle, and reads in part, “The large and increasing number of university trained men in industry and business gives ample evidence

DR. WARREN C. MIDDLETON, psychologist, has made a study of the reaction attitudes toward death of 825 si dents_i women and 337 men inktwo Midwestern universities. Only 9 per cent reported that they had ever wished they were dead. This surprises me as I had the notion that this wish was pretty common among young people—more so than among older people—because young people, especially in their love affairs seem to live more intensely: emotionally.

NEXT—Are young marriages more likely to end in divorce?

(Good Radio Music By JAMES THRASHER :

Grateful tribiiite from an aspiring pupil to a noted teacher: “Bing taught me how 3 ‘swing it’ ”—Rose Bampton. The above niirsel was uttered after Miss Bampton’s first appearance on the Crosby variety hour, when she delighted or annoyed—according to taste—the radio public by singing “I'm an Old Cowhand” instead of “My Heart at T' iy Sweet Voice” or® something. i We don’t object so much to opera stars crooning or §winging as a defamation to thi art as on the grounds that priessional swingers do it so much be fer. Anyway, the yong American contralto will be buatk on the Crosby cheese-and-may¢iinaise program at 9 o'clock tonight nver WLW. Maybe we'd better tell you about Miss Bampton's first meeting with Mr. Crosby, as ling as there isn’t much doing on jne air waves tonight anyhow. dere it is, in her own words: “I saw a chap in corduroy trousers and sweate: moving a piano, and when he had finished he asked one of-the group, ‘Has anyone seen Bampton?’ ik “I walked in ail said ‘I'm Bampton’ He took oii his cap and said, ‘H'ya. Rose—I'm iiing Crosby.’ “That's the scill of chap he is— Slaple: homey &:d’ regular as can And a gentlérnan, Rose—don't forget he took hi: cap off.

Ventriloquist Bergen Tries Lines First on Night Club Crowds.

By RALPH NORMAN

With radio program builders invading the movies to bring to CBS and NBC microphones tonight Jimmy Durante, Gloria Swanson and -Lee Tracy, we revive the frequently discussed question of the networks’ exploitation of film talent. First though, In case you aren't concerned in this movie-radio quarrel, but are interested only in performances of the three stars mentioned, you may hear Mr. Durante on Kate Smith's program (WFBM at T o'clock); Miss Swanson on the “Show Boat” hour (WLW at. 8 o'clock), and Mr. Tracy with Bing

.| Crosby and Bob Burns (also WLW,

at 9 o'clock). - n ” ” A debated question for years, this radio-movie problem recently has flared into open contention as more and more programs have moved from New York to Hollywood, which rapidly is becoming America’s radio capital. Both NBC and CBS are increasing West Coast staffs and enlarging and improving broadcasting facilities in Hollywood to handle this influx of business from the. East. Movie exhibitors, not producers, have been the most vehement protestors to actors and actresses selling their time to radio. Now these protests are finding an ear with the industry’s moguls. It happens, though, that the movie industfy and the networks actually are only interested onlookers. Stars are hired directly by radio program sponsors, who are paying about $3,000,000 annually for movie talent, and film executives and network officials “have little to do with the practice. Apparently the film industry's only way to control radio appearances of their stars is by contract stipulations. :

# # o

Motion Picture Daily this week published an interesting and enlightening survey of the entire setup. and some of the findings are rather startling. In the six-month period, from July 1 to Dec. 31, 1936, 235 “straight film” players made 381 radio guest performances or appeared regularly in 24 progranis, according to this trade journal. But in the same period, Hollywood used only 55 players who are famous primarily for radio performances. Two of these 235 cinema players, Olivia de Havilland and Ann Soth=ern, made seven radio guest appearances; three others, Joan Bennett, Patsy Kelly and Robert Taylor, each made six. Those with four or more appearances to their credit included Alice Faye, Joel McCrea, Frank Morgan, Gertrude Niesen, Walter O'Keefe, Gene Raymond, Barbara Stanwyck, Sheila Barrett, Kitty Carlisle, Ruth Chatterton, Guy Kibbee, Elissa Landi, Anita Louise, Herbert Marshall, Adolphe Menjou and Jack Oakie. (Mr. Oakie now heads his own program.)

® t. u

Whatever the objections of exhibitors and producers may be, .they should not be unmindful of the publicity their offering received via the networks. We'll wager that tonight, for example, Bing Crosby will get in a “plug” for Lee Tracy’s new movie, “Criminal Lawyer,” when Mr. Tracy visits “Music Hall.” ” " 2

Edgar Bergen, Rudy Vallee's ventriloquist who rapidly is coming ta the front as a radio comedian, has his own success method. His radio ciferings are “tested” on New York night club audiences, and unsuccess= ful bits are discarded. On radio, we hear only the gleanings of a week's work. Rudy has not announced his guest stars for tonight (WIRE at 1 c’clock). 2 zn s Sok Autograph hunting is not confined to lisceners. Kate Smith admits she has a hankering for artists’ signatures, and Walter Huston, whe was a “Band Wagon” guest last week, was asked for his. Queerly enough, Kate doesnt find it easy to confront fellow per= formers with demands for signa« tures, and with Mr. Huston it took her all aftrenoon to muster courage to voice her wish. The actor, now ° on Broadway in the title role oi “Othello,” graciously obliged, then asked Kate for her signature.
