MUZZLE IS TOO LONG TO BE CALLED A NOSE AND TOO SHORT TO BE CALLED
I THINK they do. People fall in love because of outward appearances and little mannerisms— tones of voice, gestures, dress, and the like. It always has been so and always will be so. No man in his senses ever fell in love with a woman’s brains or even her character. However, if he stays in love— that’s a different proposition. Unless the woman has a fair amount of brains and solid qualities of character he soon falls out of love and —for that woman—stays out. On the home stretch in the race of love, brains and character wins. 2 a a2% I THINK the boys were mighty wise. : Familiarity and too close and constant association breeds con-
tempt and a lot of friction—somie-
times murder, while too great a distance may breed forgetfulness. I don’t know that all our friends have to live precisely 30 blocks away and all our enemies either nearer or farther, but I should say 30 blocks is a mighty safe average. ” ” ”
A VAST ‘lot of them do, although more and more our young people are getting on to this ancient wisecrack. It is the sheerest tommyrot. Yet millions of young people are being huddled and coddled through our schools and colleges ‘with either the ‘conscious or unconscious assumption held before them that somewhere in the world there is a top of some sort waiting for them.
MIND
never going to get farther than getting a fairly well-paid job, marrying a fairly decent young person and rearing two or three fairiy decent children and becoming fairly decent, fairly law-abiding citizens. Far better to teach a boy there is a good living but not a pot of gold waiting for him at some mythical rainbow’s foot.
NEXT—Are women more willing to marry a homely man than men te marry a homely woman?
COMMON ERRORS
Never say, “What specie of bug is that?” say, “species.”
Australians hate strikes; because of their destructiveness and because, like war, they hurt women and children most.—Dr. James Marshall, noted Australian minister and naturalist.

WHAT YOU REALLY HEAR
On radio, as elsewhere, things are not always what they seem.

ture at upper right may he the smashing in of a door or the crushing of a packing case to let a hoxed-in vigtim escape. ®
On the lower left is what sounds
like a marching army. The
wooden pegs slide in the holder, and the sound effects technician controls the size and closeness of his army by dropping few or many pegs. And on the lower right someone is being given an awful wallop. Many

Well, Mr. Templeton says that if«
Bach were alive today, he thinks the Leipzig cantor would show ‘a great interest in swing music. “He would like Kern and Friml— but he would love Benny Goodman,” the young pianist surmises. “Benny plays the same ingenious sort of counterpoint, in the modern manner, that Bach composed in the 18th Century. I think if Bach were alive today he would want his music played by an orchestra composed of the string section of some great symphony like the New York Phil-harmonic-Symphony Society; the best modern players of the trumpet, trombone, guitar and saxophone, and Goodman's clarinet and percussion trio. And he would want

With Edgar Bergen (and his Charlie McCarthy) graduated to an important part in NBC’s new Sunday evening variety show, Rudy Vallee had to iook around for a new program headliner. He found it in Joe Laurie Jr, who returns for a third “Variety Hour” performance tonight/ Although Laurie has not been signed for a program series, three guest performances for Vallee usually mean a job. : Laurie was one of vaudeville’s few comedians still untested by the networks. That’s surprising, when Laurie has the desirable trait of being capable of writing his dwn material. He’s a good entertainer, too, telling his stories casually and whimsically, without fanfare and buildup. 2 » FJ The list of Vallee-discovered entertainers who move from his _ program to their own shows grows longer each season, with Bergen the newest “find.” Rudy's method is so simple it seems odd other. broadcasters have not tried it, buf they don’t. Most of them—infiuenced, perhaps, by sponsors—prefer to feature names already well known to network listeners. . The Vallee method is to ferret out talent already experienced on stage, in vaudeville or in night clubs and to introduce it to radio listeners. Almost invariably his selections achieve new and unexpected success after a few appearances on his broadcast. Mr. Bergen, for instance, was considering giving up ventriloquism because of lack of contracts when Vallee boosted him to fame he never dreamed of.

Mrs. Harry @ Frankel, wife . of NBC’s Singing Sam, is a patient at Methodist Hospital here, where she is recovering from a serious operation.. Mr, Frankel, who has been here much of the time this past week, went to New York yesterday to make a series of transcribed pro-
‘.| grams for a summer series. He was
heard each Sunday afternoon via NBC-WLW until the program recently left the air for the summer. Mrs. Frankel will be at the hospital here at least another week, she said yesterday. The Frankels live at Milton, near Richmond, Ind.

| When American listeners hear European programs, they're usually of serious nature, like the coronation or symphonic music. But when English listeners are treated to programs from the United States, they get Jack Benny or swing music or something like that. Jack did a special series for European listeners last spring, NBC cooperating with the British Broadcasting Co. CBS also is shortwaving programs to Europe, for rebroadcast by BBC, and at 4:30 p.m. today will broadcast for BBC |more swing music in the best American manner. The orchestra will be Bunny Berigan’'s. ’ Fifteen minutes of the program, beginning at 4:45, will be carried by the CBS American network and WFBM locally. Eerigan’s band has been preceded on the series by Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey and Chick Webb.

Now that Jane Froman has been engaged for a summer series on the Jack Benny show, while the comedian vacations, NBC listeners may expect to hear her frequently. She will be guest star with Ray Sinatra’s orchestra over the Blue network at 5:15 p. m today, and other “buildup” broadcasts doubtless will be arranged before she goes to the Benny show on July 4. » n n
