Bait Chat
On or about December 15 there’ll
be two “Mirandys”—so don’t con
fuse them. One, of course, is Mi-
randy, the Ozark philosopher,
whose homey chatter is heard on
WTAW Farm and Home Makers

days at 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 noon,
CWT. The second will be the All-
America, first-prize rose for 1944-

45, which has been named for none
other than this same Mirandy of
Persimmon Holler.
Voted the most perfect rose pro
duced in the All-American rose
competition for 1945 by the 20
test gardens in the United States,
the “Mirandy” is a dark red bloom
developed by the Armstrong Nur
series of Ontario, Cal. It is a cross
between the “Charlotte Arm
strong”, a gorgeous cerise rose, and
“Night”, a very dark red rose. It
has a penetrating, full-bodied frag
rance matching the richness of its
color and form.
A rose grower herself, the
Blue’s Mirandy considers the nam
ing of the prize-winner the great
est honor she has ever received.
Donna Dae, featured singer with
Fred Waring and his Pennsylvan
ians, heard Thursdays over WTAW
at 6:00 p.m., CWT has obtained a
leave of absence to entertain serv
icemen overseas. Donna leaves dur

the party with intent to rob the
guests. Such is the situation that
confronts the Green Hornet in the
WTAW program of that name,
Tuesday, October 24, at 6:30 p.m.,
CWT.
Britt Reid, who is really the
Green Hornet, is a guest at the
party. With customary courage and
precision, he renders the crooks
harmless and rescues the financier
and his son.
Herbert landed squarely on a big
bounding Nazi and what does the
blighter do but run into the woods
like a bloomin’ rabbit.
This unusually humorous situa
tion is portrayed on WTAW Blue
Network’s Listening Post, Tues
day, October 24, at 9:45 a.m., CWT.
The story is a dramtization of the
Saturday Evening Post yarn, ’’Wil
lie and the Commandos,” by Rich
ard Stern.

25, wil be “Time to Move On,” by
Charlotte Edwards. “A Faint North
Wind,” by Edwin A. Peeples, is

Using his horse, Silver, as bait
to capture some boss rustlers, the
Masked Horseman finds himself
in an unexpected trap during the
Friday, October 27, dramatization

Heard at 6:30 to 7:00 p.m., CWT,

will be told on the Thursday, Octo

Lives of Ethel and Albert, to be
heard at 3:00 p.m., CWT over
WTAW.
Albert’s indignant moralizing
about people who stay out until the
wee small hours is cut short when
the pretty secretary of a friend
of his burbles sweet nothings at
him. To Ethel’s utter confusion, he
suddenly decides they are becoming
too stolid, don’t go out enough, re
marks that people need recreation.
Martha Mears will make a re
peat appearance on Hollywood
Star Time, Wednesday, October 25,
at 2:15 p.m., CWT, over WTAW.

It’s not a case of brother against
brother when Quiz Kids Harve
Fischman, 14, and Sparky Fisch-
man, 5, anwser r’oll call in WTAW’s
celebrated schoolhouse of the air.
Instead, it’s a radio manifestation
of what Philadelphia is supposed
to be the city of.
When Sparky makes a brilliant
reply to one of Quizmaster Joe
Kelly’s brain-busters, Harve’s face
lights up with an expansive that’s
my-boy-smile. And when big broth
er Harve gives correct answers,
Sparky chortles in high glee and
claps away wildly.
Sparky is Harve’s pi’otege. He
began grooming his younger broth
er for Quiz Kid status when
Sparky was a tiny two, scarcely
able to lisp “ptarmigan.” When
Sparky was midway in his third
year, Harve, whose specialty is
American history, began teaching
him the names of U. S. presidents.
After a month of coaching,
Harve felt confident that Sparky
bad memorized the presidents to
perfection. So one evening before

a suitable audience of neighborhood
small fry, Harve called upon
Sparky to name the thirteenth
president. Sparky hestitated a
moment, gulped, and said:: “Hit
ler.”
But seldom does Sparky fail so
abysmally. Generally, his reten
tive little brain cells fasten onto
all the facts his talented brother
thrusts at him. He’s now in kinder
garten, but the bulk of his know
ledge is supplied by impromptu
seminars with Tutor Harve.
Three R’s are enough for the lads
and there’s little chance that a
fourth R-Rivalry—will ever come
between them.
