A society girl meets a young
farmer and they fall in love. But
they are worlds apart until the
girl renounces her former life and
recaptures the pioneer spirit. The
Blue Network’s My True Story,
“Pink Chiffon Girl,” heard Thurs
day, August 3, deals with this prob
lem.
In My True Story of Friday,
August 4, a girl who loves her
teacher, Joel Harley, undergoes
many bitter experiences before she
realizes that it is her old standby,
Steve, who is really the man for
her.
* * *
A woman interviewed by Don
McNeill on a recent broadcast of
the Blue Network’s Breakfast Club
reported that she had started out
to attend a Breakfast Club session
three months previously but had
turned back home within a block
of the studio.
“Why did you back track?” asked
McNeill.
“To keep an appointment with
the stork,” she replied.

The Four Vagabonds will sing
that sublime ballad of a person
who has burst all bonds—“Run
ning Wild”—on their Blue Net
work program of songs, Wednes
day, August 2, at 4:lf)-4:30 p.m.,
CWT.
The mellow foursome also will
intone “San Fernando Valley/-
“Prayer of a Nation,” “My Dar
ling Nelly Gray,” and “I Only
Want a Buddy (Not a Sweet
heart).”

Cliff Arquette faced with a large
utilities bill, tries to collect some
back rent from tenants of Glamour
Manor during the broadcast, Wed
nesday, August 2, at 11:00 a.m.,
CWT, over the Blue Network. The
results are somewhat unexpected
and amusing.
Charlie Hale’s orchestra will
feature a revival of “The Sheik,”
and Hal Stevens, vocalist, will sing
“I’ll Walk Alone.”

Judge Ransom Shermap will de
fend the issue that “a back seat
driver is the lowest form of ani
mal life,” during the Blue Network
broadcast of Nitwit Court, .Tues
day, August 1, at 7:30-8:00 p.m.,
CWT.
After the judge has lost himself
in a maze of contradictory evi
dence, the problem will be tossed
into a vacuum composed of three
learned jurors—Waymond Wad-
cliff e (Arthur Q. Bryan), Bigelow
Hornblower (Mel Blanc,) and Bub
bles Lowbridge (Sara Berner).
Musical interludes will include
an original song by Jimmy Dodd,
accompanied by the Jack Rose in
strumentalists.

Someone who happens to have
the twenty-four-year-old original
Paul Whiteman recording of “Do
You Ever Think of Me?” is going
to get a $25 war bond by lending
it to the Blue Network’s musical
director, conductor of the Philco
Summer Hour, heard Sundays at
5:00 p.m., CWT.
Each week the Radio Hall of
Fame orchestra, which provides
the Summer Hour music, plays a
tune exactly as Whiteman record
ed it twenty or more years ago and
then presents a modern version.
Arrangers have been copying the
old orchestrations from whatever
ancient, scratched records they’ve
been able to find. However, no one
can locate the “Do You Ever
Think of Me?” disc, so Whiteman
has promised to give the war bond
to the first person who writes him
kcare of the Blue Network in New
York offering to lend him the rec
ord.

In self-contented subjunctive
mood, Curley Bradley will sing
“If You Knew Susie,” on the Blue
Network broadcast of Farm and
Home Makers, Thursday, August
3, at 11:30 a.m., CWT. Bradley
also will baritone “Georgia On My
Mind,” “I Had a Talk with the
Lord,” and “Am I a Soldier of
the Cross?”
The Harmonizers, instrumental
sextet, will play their streapilined
version of the old favorite “Twelfth
Street Rag,” and follow with the
“Chicken Polka.” The orchestra,
under the direction of Harry Ko-
gen, will play a medley composed
of “A Little White House,” “Just
a Cottage Small,” and “My Little
Grass Shack.”
In addition, Bradley will present
a last-minute summary of farm
news, and Kay Baxter, Blue Net
work homemaker, will give house
hold hints.
The program is produced by Bob
White.
State income taxes are not im
posed in 15 states, which contain

A Battery Places
High in Slide Rule
Contest Finals
A Battery claims the title of the
smartest outfit on the campus by
virtue of its large representation
in the slide rule contest.
Seven boys were finalists, but
the crowning feature, according
to the boys from A Battery, is
the fact that A Battery won three
of the top seven places in the con
test. Allen F. Johnson was first,
winning a slide rule and leading
the E. E. students. C. B. Nance
was fourth, and David V. Hudson,
seventh, the latter two also placing
first and second in the Aeronau
tics Department respectively.
The way of the transgressor is
hard on his associates.
Norway To Make
Last Payment
On Debt to U. S.
The Norwegian government
Monday will pay the last install-^
ment—$1,239,000—on a $25,000,-
009 twenty-year loan contracted in'*
the United States in 1924.
The Royal Norwegian Informa
tion Service said Ambassador Wil-'
helm Morgenstierne will make the
payment to the National City Bank
of New York.
Norway arranged two 6 per cent-
loans in 1923 and 1924, both due in
twenty years. The first, for $20,-
000,000, was paid off a year ago.
Total amount repaid on the two
loans since the Nazi invasion of*
Norway in April of 1940, is about
$16,000,000, in addition to interest
payments.
To get ahead, use the one you
have.
