orchestral offering under the di
rection of Wilfred Pelletier., The
broadcast will conclude with a duet
by Miss Dickey and Cassel on
‘You and the Night and the Mu
sic.”

FUNNY MAN
On Sunday afternoons, at 4:00
p. m., CWT, to exact WTAW goes
musical in a big way. Against the
background of the familiar strains
of George M. Cohan’s immortal
“Mary,” the Mary Small Revue,
featuring the lovely Mary Small
herself, Sunny Skylar, handsome
young crooner, the music of Ray
Block’s orchestra and various
guests, begins a melodic half-hour.
Melodic and funny, too—for in
that brief thirty minutes there is
something that is not musical, ra
ther a three or four minute enter
taining monologue by a well-known
radio figure, Olyn Landick, who
goes by the nom de mike of “The
Hackensack Gossip.”
In this modern age when comer
dians work in pairs with stooges
and straight-men and ‘plants” are
all too common, the Hackensack
Gossip is doubly refreshing in that
he is strictly a monologuist, per
forming what is known in the trade
as a “single.” His style is that
of a New Jersey housewife garru
lously discussing the gossip, the
comings and goings of her family,
friends and neighbors in a manner
best described as over-the-back-
fence or the front porch motif.
All this is worked into a running
story that could earn for Landick
the title of the Surburban Dwight
Fiske or even the Latter Day Ju
lian Eltinge.
The slow, drawling, purely
American type of speech employed
by the Hackensack Gossip in his
monologue is a perfect carica
ture of the homey, small town gos
sip who knows what everybody
else’s business is and nevet seems
to know when the joke is on her.

SPARKLING SHOW
It won’t be from the same old
stand but Fred Waring will be
doing business all right when he
returns to the air Thursday, Sept.
7. at 6:00 p. m., CWT, for the first
of his weekly big half hour musical
variety shows, this time over the
Blue Network and WTAW. ^
There are more than fifty-five
performing ‘Pennsylvanians,” most
of whom are versatile enough to ,
put on swell shows by themselves.
Many of the musicians can double
on an imposing array of glittering
instruments and all can sing, sing
ing being a prerequisite for mem
bership in the Waring band. The
non-playing exclusively vocal Penn
sylvanians can whistle, become ~
duos, trios, quartets or entire glee
clubs; the drummer, Poley Me- %
Clintock, can double as a comedian
and the entire company can present -
the same selection in any one of
several ways that best fits the
mood of any particular program.
For one single broadcast, Waring
well known in the band business
as a perfectionist, will often have
as many as a dozen rehearsals.
He will sometimes try five dif
ferent arrangements of the same
selection before deciding which one
will go on the air. Fir instance,
“St. Louis Blues” might finally
emerge as a circus overture, a
jam session or a lonesome Missouri
chant of homesickness.
Massachusetts is an Indian name *
meaning “at the Great (Blue)
Hills.”
