ZAjSMLFlorence has been with the Chicago Civic Opera Company and was in several movies. She’s Mrs. Everett Crosby which makes her Bing's lister-in-law. • • • Alice Frost, the radio dramatic actress, has a talent which would net her lucrative returns were she to commercialize it Due to her art of mimicry, Alice is known to her friends as “the girl of a hundred voices.” • • • Brewster Morgan, pictured here, is one of those important gentlemen in radio whom the public seldom hears about—a producer. However, considerable attention is being focused / -.J? V Tmllf / on Morgan at the present time. He Is producing the two sensational CBS hit programs, “The Human Adventure” and “Men At Work.” The latter has such a pronounced entertainment value it was recently Dimed by the newsreels. • • • According to a west coast vocal teacher who wrote into “The Musical Playhouse,” heard over CBS, Jane Froman’s voice alone is so expressive that she could convey the meaning of a song even without singing its lyrics! But Jane is noted in radio circles for her faultless enunciation.

BROADCAST BARN DANCE DURING STATE FAIR Lulu Belle and Scotty, ■ Uncle. Ezra, the Hoosier Hotshots and the entire hayloft crew will open State Fair at Indianapolis on Saturday, September 2, with a four and one-half hour broadcast of the famous WLS National Barn Dance, including the hour-long Alka Seltzer portion on a coast-to-coast NBC network. "Nearly 100 radio artists mase up the cast of the WLS National Barn Dance,, including sqch stars as Joe kelly, Henry* Burr,' the

i “I Love A Mystery” which is writ- , ten by Carlton Morse, author of the , popular “One Man’s Family.” be- , comes a coast-to-coast NBC feature early in October It’s been heard regularly on a Pacific Coast network for the past four months. • • • Bob Xnight, pictured here, whose electric "singing” guitar is featured on “Answers From the Dancers” program, is an unusual figure in the music world. Although Knight’s own / jump k'' \' *'■ fSF / orchestra appears in many of New York’s swanky night dubs, he himself enjoys playing the role of a solo instrumentalist with a top flight radio orchestra like Horace Heidt’s. If the records compiled by Mort i Lewis, prbducer-emcee of the NBC “If I Had the Chance” programs can be accepted no one is perfectly satisfied with his present occupation or profession. Lewis has presented hundreds of people on the air and everyone has admitted that “If they had the chance.” they would prefer doing something different to earn a living. • • • Pretty Lillian Greene, pictured here, who is "Betty Carter” in "Meet Miss Julia,” will be remembered by movie-goers as the featured come- \ ML dienne in a series of movie shorts. Miss Greene’s current radio role is affording her an opportunity to display her excellent dramatic ability.

Rangers, the Prairie Ramblers, Pat Buttram, Georgie Goebel, the DeZurik sisters and scores of others. WLS will broadcast the full WLS National Barn Dance from the stage in front of the fair grandstand, starting at 6:30 pm., and running to 11 p.m., central standard time —four and one-half hours. Tickets for this opening night attraction are now on sale at the. state fair offices., The barn dance cast scheduled for .Ibdiunapolis is the identical group seen every Saturday night at Chicago’s Eighth Street . Theater. An Indiana guest star has been chosen by the Keystone dealers to appear in Indianapolis on their portion of the show. She will be Doris Stokes, 17-year-old singer from Peru. The Prairie Farmer-WLS exhibit tent will be a meeting place for all visitors. There will be drinking water, chairs for resting, tables for lunching, pictures of many of the wLs radio stars, and, and someone on hand at all times to answer questions about Prairie Farmer, WLS and the people on the air. Mrs. Lucille Rees of Fort Wayne, Ind., doubtless owes her , life to a stay :in her corset which deflected a stray bullet fired by an unknown person.

O — ° | PURDUE SPORTS DOPE | o — o Gridiron fans are apparently fully aware of the attractiveness of Purdue’s “eight star” schedule for this fall. Although a new record for advance ticket sales was established last year, it fell by the wayside in the first two weeks of the current sale when there was a 43 per cent increase over the 1938 figures. Noble E. Kizer, Purdue athletic director, is making plans for an attractive “B” team football schedule for this fall to supplement the varsity schedule and to provide an opportunity for actual action for all members of the squad as well as additional entertainment for Boilermaker grid followers. • I Gophers, Broncos, Hawks, Wildcats, and Badgers must all be turned by Purdue’s football eleven this fall, not to mention encounters with Spartans, Irish and Hoosiers. The colorful nicknames of the Boilermakers’ 1939 foes are as impressive as the strength of the teams themselves. Bob Bailey, Purdue right-hand-er, made a real record in his first appearance in Big Ten diamond circles as a sophomore last spring. Bailey ranked second in effectiveness, innings pitched, and strikeouts, and tied with Syring, of Northwestern, for the most full games pitched. Appearing in seven conference games, Bailey allowed an earned run average of only 1.20. * Theoretical batting honors for the Big Ten baseball season last spring were won by Dick Wargo, Purdue pitcher, who was credited with three hits in five official trips to the plate for an average of .600. As far as practical honors are concerned, among the regular performers who were at bat 30 or more times, Felix Mackiewicz, speedy third baseman who is an outstanding candidate for an end post of this fall’s football squad, ranked fourth in the Big Ten and paced the Boilermakers with an average of .368. There will be two pairs of brothers on Purdue’s football squad this fall. Frank and Jack Winchell, of Southport, Ind., noth major lettermen, are leading candidates for guard and fullback, respectively. The Rossi brothers, of Pekin, 111., Alfred and Italo, are both tackle candidates. Al won his major letter as a sophomore last fall, while his “little” brother, Italo, who will. be a sophomore this fall, is tlie biggest man on the squad, tipping the scales at 225 pounds. For the past ten years, Pur- : due’s football teams have averaged three victories in four strats in Big Ten competition for a mark of .750 th,at tops the composite conference standing for the period from 1929 to 1938, inclusive. Purdue’s “Three Bees,” Lou Brock, Jack Brown, and Mike Byelene, . game-breaking halfbacks who have won national fame, may have their counter-parts in a pair

of “Bees” in the forward wall this fall. Wendell Britt, end, and Frank Bykowski, both senior lettermen, will both be strong candidates for regular assignments. Arrangements have already been made for Purdue’s band to journey to -South Bend on Septem- 4 ber 30 to give the Boilermakers encouragement in the season’s opener with Notre Dame that will top the nation’s football card for the day. After breaking a window to rob the home of H. W. Albright in Loudonville, N. Y., the thief picked up the broken bits of glass and placed them in a dish before leaving.
