Before the elevator finally descends to street level, Cliff Ar quette provides his usual laughs, Hal Stevens sings “It Had To Be You,” and Charlie Hale’s band plays “I Got Plenty of Nothin\” * * * Lots of things can happen with phone calls.

That is what happens in the Blue Net work’s broadcast of My True Story, Thursday, July 20, at 9:00-9:25 a.m., CWT. The drama is called “For Keeps.” When his younger brother re turned from combat, a hero, the older brother, as was natural, felt elated as is shown in the My True Story broadcast of Friday, July 21. But when the older brother’s wife started going all over town with the younger man, the usual difficulties ensued. The story of “Kid Brother” is one that listeners will long remember. * * * The orchestra under the direc tion of Harry Kogen will occupy the spotlight during the Thursday, July 20, broadcast of the Blue Net work’s Farm and Home Makers, at 11:30 a.m., CWT, when they of fer special arrangements of “Lady be good,” “This Is the Army Mr. Jones,” and the stirring march, “Columbia.” M. C. Curley Bradley will bari tone one of Irving Berlin’s best- known songs, “Blue Skies,” and will follow with “Lady Be Good.” The Harmonizers, instrumental sextet, will swing out in a spark ling presentation of “Darktown Strutter’s Ball,” and then accom pany Curley as he sings “Ah Ha.” In addition, Kay Baxter, Blue Network homemaker, will offer timely household tips and Bradley will provide a summary of last- minute farm news. * * * The velvet harmonies of the Ca dets quartet will be featured in a “wedding bells medley” via the Blue Network’s broadcast of the Farm and Home Makers, Wednes day, July 19, at 11:30 a.m., CWT. Included in the medley will be “Waiting at the Church,” “I Wish I Was Single Again,” and “Because I’m Married Now.” Other selections to be heard on the program are: “Sweet and Love ly,” “By the Light of the Silvery Moon,” “Carry Me Back to the Lone Prairie,” and “I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go,” as baritoned by M. C. Curley Bradley. The Har monizers, instrumental sextet, will offer a special arrangement of “Echo Polka,” and the orchestra, under the direction of Harry Ko gen will play Sousa’s “El Capitan March.” In addition, Kay Baxter, Blue Network homemaker, will provide timely household tips, and Bradley will give a last-minute summary of farm news. Bob White is producer-director of Farm and Home Makers. * * * The maddening problem of what is a woman’s hat nowadays and whether the average crazy skim mer is entitled to be called a hat anyway, will be discussed with as much gravity as the question de serves by “Judge” Ransom Sher man and his Nitwit Court over the Blue Network Tuesday, July 18, at 7:30 p.m., CWT. Sherman, who wears his judicial robes with the same dignity in which less subtle comics sport a false nose and baggy pants, will have as his jurors the regulars Arthur Q. Bryan as “Wayman Wadcliffe,” Mel Blanc as “Bige low Hornblower,” and Sarah Ber ner as “Bubbles Lowbridge.” The only notes of sanity in the half hour of whacky fun will be FEATURED ON WTAW A BLUE Network morning musi cal highspot is “Aunt Jemima,” which features these three beau teous belles, who lend charm and their voices to this daily show. Left to right: Annajean Brown, Irene Verner and Ann Andrews. donated by Jimmy Dodd when he sings. * * * Upon hearing of a Navy chap lain who married three sailors in 15 minutes, Charles Irving, quiz master on the Blue Network’s Coronet Quiz Quiz (Saturdays, 8:55 p.m., CWT) remarked: “He’s a fast man—makes twelve knots an hour.” * * * Lew Green, as producer of the Blue Network's Breakfast Club (Monday through Saturdays, 8:00- 9:00 a.m., CWT), finds it necessary at times to prod the orchestra. As a result, musicians call him “Simon Le Green.” * * * Though she is one of the busiest vocalovelies on the air, Nancy Mar tin, Blue Network songstress heard on her own show, Hellow Sweet heart (Saturdays at 4:45 p.m., CWT) always finds time to enter tain servicemen. Her recent trip to the Naval Air Training Station at Ottumwa, la., is an example of why she’s been called the “B-29 of Morale Builders.” After a four-hour ride on a stuffy milk-train, Nancy was met at the station by an enthusiastic throng of naval air cadets. Escort ed by a guard of honor to a sta tion wagon, she was promptly whisked to the Officer’s Club where she delighted her audience with a half hour of song and friendly patter. From there, Nancy went to the station hospital where she brought appreciative smiles with her songs and greetings. Then in rapid suc cession she sang at the enlisted men’s mess, the cadet mess, and the WAVES dormitory. Escorted by proud “boots,” she bowled, rode in a jeep, went swimming, and then entertained the commanding officer and his staff. Leaving the officers, the attrac tive Blue Network star immediate ly went into a practice session with a group with whom she was to sing later that evening. The re hearsal ended just in time for her to answer the curtain call for an appearance before 2,000 “boots.” Nearing the point of exhaustion (the thermometer hovered at 108 degrees all day) the pretty singer finally was escorted into the post exchange for a bite to eat. When Ensign Kevin Sweeney, public relations officer, asked what he could offer her in partial appreciation, Nancy thought a mo ment and then replied: “Two boxes of kleenex.” (And she got them!) — BACKWASH — (Continued from Page 2) Beaumont Enterprise “Killing mad” is the phrase used by Captain Jimmie Cokinos, class of ’40, to express his feelings when, on the Momote, one of the Admir alty islands, he found a dead Jap with a Texas A. & M. belt on the body. Captain Jimmie decided that it was taken from a dead Aggie on Bataan or some other place in the Pacific theatre by the little son-of- (tish tish) heaven. Jimmie offered some advice worth listening to. “After the first shot has been fired, you get over being scared and just go around doing things that you have been taught to do, automatically. That is why training officers insist that recruits (or Fish) do the right things over and over . . . under fire they do the right things un consciously.” I wonder why Birds sing just before day break . . . city people go to the country and country people go to the city for the same thing . . . Aggies nev er are allowed to sit in air condi tioned passenger coaches . . . men sweat and women perspire . . . they call a fish a poor fish . . . TSCW women are all alike ... I can’t understand women . . . she called him a teaspipper with Ag gie intentions ... I never get back from a week-end until Monday morning ... all the Aggies congre gate in one place on Greenville Avenue in Dallas ... I can be lonesome for her without her be ing lonesome for me . . . she doesn’t like for me to late date. Off-Campus Distractions Thumbing this past weekend was fast. Just took some of the fellows four hours to get out of Bryan. Men went north in droves while a few went west with even fewer going south. Can you blame them in this heat? Reports are that a few misguid ed souls found their way up to Denton. Well, they were misguided by the time they returned to Col lege Station. These Tessies. Tes- sie-land will begin a new summer term along about the 19th of this month. Be pretty much a change of faces so if things were getting too complicated to handle among the old personnel maybe one of them will be gone for the rest of the summer. There is one big trouble with TSCW. A guy going with a nice (Give it your own definition) girl up there nearly always meets someone a little better. There is always one just a little bit more attractive than the one the guy is going with. Get on your horse and play the field. The pasture is green now but later in the summer they will have learned a lot. Aggie Exes Receive Citations, Promotions Another group of Aggies exes have just received citations and commissions. They are Hansford Lee Sandlin, James DuBose, Don ald M. Davis, and Warren H. Tom linson. Sandlin, son of Hardy L. Sandlin of San Angelo was commissioned a second lieutenant in the U. S.
