Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

It took about an hour and I labeled it 'Monotony For Strings.' " But the not-so-dumb publisher dubbed it "Holiday For Strings" and on the strength of it and many of his other melodies, musical experts are now proclaiming Rose one of the most promising forces in new American music. But Rose hadn't completely m.ilked "Holiday" for the benefit of private enjoyment. There was still another joke up his musical sleeve. He wrote another opus, "Gay Spirits" which scored as still another Rose accomplishment. He doesn't brag about it but he finds it difficult to conceal a twinkle in his eye and a suggestion of a grin as he confides that "Gay Spirits" is nothing more than "Holiday" played backwards. Don't get the idea all music is a joke to Dave. All you have to do is look at the hefty record The Mariners, Arthur Godfrey's quartet, are one of the better results of the late war. By KEN AIDEN
