THTS statement was made recently by Divorce Proctor Evangeline Starr of Seattle. ‘Out of the 2012 divorces granted in 103¢ in that city the largest number were to couples “enjoying” their third year of marital “bliss.” Proctor Starr aigues that the two reasons were that it took until the third vear for both parties to get com= pletely over the honeymoon and settle down to the humdrum of married life and that, by that time, each saw without illusions or haloes the shortcomings of the other and were oo willing to in

IF BY FRANKNESS you mean blurting out everything you think or know about other people, it would cause an instantaneous social earthquake and make friendship impossible. Your best friends, indeed your most loved ones, do things you do not approve. » » .

DAVID SEABURY, psychologist, |

argues that forward-looking worry is entirely justifiable but that backward-looking worry never is. We cannot change the past; therefore to worry over things that cannot be changed—either in the past or future is dish —-mere

things in the future that can be changed + and prevents us from | thinking clearly about them and J taking intelligent measures to pre-

vent failure and insure success. Do |All your worrying about tomorrow, not about yesterday, so that you may make today successful and reasonably happy.

Never say, “Will you set down and rest awhile?”; say, “sit down.”

Burlesque is the oradle of vaudeville. If you get rid of burlesque, you get rid of the whole theater — Morton Minsky, as New York judges refused to renew burlesque licenses.

Networks to Broadcast British - American Track Meet.

By RALPH NORMAN

The easiest and. quickest way to make a fortune in radio, advises a New York publicity scribe who should know something about the | stars’ salaries, is to follow in the

clan, The comedians like Jack Benny, Fred Allen and other topnotchers, make fortunes annually, of course, and the singers, like Bing Crosby, Rudy Vallee and Lanny Ross likewise cash in, but they have to work hard te do it : Walter Winchell, for each of his weekly 15 minutes (actually about 10 minutes) on NBC reporting the doings of Mr. and Mrs. America, is said to receive $5000. Jimmy Fidler, for Tuesday and Friday NBC broadcasts from Hollywood, is reported to draw $3500 a week. And Louella Parsons,

Presenting four men—a network maestro, a British master of ceremonies, a celebrated comedian and a local police official—you likely will hear in any week's listening. Robert Emmett Dolan (upper left) directs the orchestra for Jimmy Melton's “Sunday Night Party,”

and John Goldsworthy

(upper right)

is the veddy, veddy English

director of NBC's “Picadilly Music Hall,” which NBC-Blue carries

at 9 p. m. each Tuesday evening.

W. C. Fields (lower left) is a headliner on NBC-WIRE's Sunday

evening show, which also stars Don Ameche

and Edgar Bergen.

Patrolman Lawrence C. Fanning (lower right) is heard over WIRE at 1 p. Mm. daily, reading the police records and broadcasting infor=mation about missing persons and other news of general interest. The broadcasts originate at Indianapolis police headquarters.

Good Radio Music

By JAMES THRASHER

Europe, land of summer festivals,

has a new one this year. It is not

in celebration of a composer, either, but of Antonio Stradivari, creator of

incomparable violins, who died 200 years ago. I you know your Stradivari=or Stradivarius—

festival is being held in Cremona, Italy.

u will guess that the Cremona has more than Stradi-

vari to be proud of, however. city was the home of Nicolo Amati, Stradivari’s teacher, and of Andrea | Guarneri, his illustrious contem=

ary. The festival doesn’t seem to Be devoted to violin music, for vhere is an opera broadcast scheduled from there by CBS at 4 p. m, tomorrow. The work will be Verdi's “La Forza del Destino,” and the artists will in= clude Gina Cigna, notable debutante of the past Metropolitan season, and Armando Borgioli and Francesco Merli, who formerly sang at the New York temple of song. Portions of Aet IT will be heard.

» ® » More opera is scheduled for tonight, when you are to hear part of Puccini's “La Boheme” from the

Cinein

series. | Ki

e & »

beginning at 7 o'clock. The cast

has not been announced. ” ” ® Jacques Jolas, pianist, whom you may recall from CBS programs last summer, will return to the air for a new series on the same network at 5:30 p. m. tomorrow. He has titled his new group of Saturday broads casts “Bases of Piano Literature.” His first program will be devoted to music of Bach's predecessors and contemporaries, to use a convenient measuring stick. Specifically, the recital is to consist of Couperin’s “Bandolet Flottant”’ and “Moulins a Vent”, the “Eymptian Maiden” by Gigue by % a Bulls “The un; “The < gs Huntir ig,” and Largo

i wood Hotel” broadcast, is said to |draw $2500 weekly. Each of these broadcasters, of course, has other connections which likewise pay well.

Fred Allen probably was radio’s only personality who devoted all his energies to one job—that of being funny once a week. Benny and other comedians, and most of the singers and masters of ceremonies, make. movies and theater appearances. But not Allen. When he left “Town Hall” last week his future was une decided because his summer movi work had been delayed, and he re-

_ |fused to consider going on the air

next fall if working in the Alm

studios. ". ® »

Miss Parsons will bring to “HolIywood Hotel” for a film preview tonight two outstanding foreign stars, Madeleine Cgrroll and Francis Lederer. “It's All Yours” i: the title they will present, Lederer appearing as a wealthy young madeap in love with his rich uncle’s secretary, Miss Carroll. " ” »

Saturday afternoons, usually dulls ish as far as radio goes, are-exciting: this summer with NBC and CB maneuvering for exclusive sports broadcasts. They will do battle this week at Harvard Stadium, Cambridge, Mass., where a Yale-Harvard team is to compete with the visiting Oxford-Cambridge track team. Next week NBC and CBS move to Pale mer Stadium at Princeton Univers sity, where Cornell and Princeton track men will oppose the British team in its second U. S. event. Both major networks have announced broadcasts of tomorrow's meet, indicating that neither was able to contract for exclusive aire ings. NBC, with Bill Stern at the microphone, will broadcast at 1 p. m. over the Biue network, but CBS m. over the Blue network, and CBSWFBM will carry the meet from 12:45 to 3 p. m. Ted Husing will handle the CBS program.

” ” » The network rivalry took an unusually silly turn up at Mile waunkee last week, where NBC thought it had exclusive broad.

casting rights to the A. A. U. track and field meet. CBS, as is the custom, tried, and did, sneak in by hiding Ted Husing in a near-by church steeple where he overlooked the field. NBC heard about the plans and devised a scheme to fool Husing by focusihg bright lights on him from a spotlight truck. Probably’ he couldn't have seen the field, even with smoked glasses, but for some reason NBC dropped the scheme, and Husing saw the track meet, » ” ”

Apparently when something seri ous comes up--like Amelia Earhart’s disaster — the networks prompily drop this bickering. Both stayed on the air hours later than their accus« tomed times earlier this week when the fliers’ rescue seemed imminent, and WIRE likewise was on the air most of several nights.

Attempts were made to relay broadcasts direct from the Itasca, but this was dropped when the ves sel discontinued voice broadcasts and conducted all communications in code. The voice broadcasts fooled many amateur operators, who thought they heard the Earhart plane. =» » »
