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

c YNTHIA WAS DETERMINED TO RUIN HELEN'S CHANCES FOR HAPPINESS— EVEN AT THE EXPENSE OF HER GOOD REPUTATION Pretty, blue-eyed Helen Trent bent her blonde head over her drawing board and worked intently on the sketch of a costume for Jeff Brady's latest motion picture. She was trying desperately hard to finish it before the time for production to begin. On her sketch-board was the newspaper with columnist Daisy Parker's latest he about her, printed in black bold type. Hard as she was trying to concentrate on her work, Helen couldn't help but glance at the newspaper each time she looked up. Finally she took it and stuffed it savagely into the wastepaper basket. "It isn't fair," she found herself saying. "I know why this is going on, but it just isn't fair." For days now, Daisy Parker had been spreading the rumor that Heken was a home-breaker and a fortune hunter. It seemed to Helen that, ever since Cynthia had entered her life, trouble had brewed and bubbled. Helen couldn't help it if she was in love with Gil Whitney, the man whom Cynthia had tricked into marriage. Both she and Gil had supposed each free of Entanglements when they had met and found a mutual attraction. Then Cynthia had re-entered Gil's life, claiming him as her husband, establishing and finally proving her claim — only to have it clearly demonstrated that the marriage ceremony had been accomplished by trickery when Gil was a victim of amnesia during the war. Helen could understand Cynthia's desperate fight to get Gil to return Gossip began as Gils estranged wife, Cynthia,gleefully plotted with Hollywood columnist Daisy Parker to blacken Helen's name. It grew as others added rumors, for envious reasons of their own. See Xext Page] Whispering Secrets 57
