Horace Heidt Chicago Motto of the Day HIGHLIGHTS By Horace Heidt Even your best friend will wear out if you use hi ET3. Highlights for Sunday, August 28 JNLESS that appendicitis operation he underwent in Holland has upset his plans too thoroughly, Don Ameche will be back on the Chase and Sanborn hour tonight at 8:00 on NBCRed — in fact, he was supposed to return last week. Everybody will be glad to get Don back on the air, because he's probably the best master of ceremonies in the business — besides knowing how to put Charlie McCarthy in his place. . . . This morning, at 11:05, listen to The Pine Tavern, a new program series about a lovable Vermont family. Its author, Merritt P. Allen, is one of radio's most prolific writers — and has never in his life set foot in New York, where most of his scripts are produced. He lives in Vermont, with his uncle and aunt, on a farm that has been in the Allen family for three hundred years. About forty years old, he has been an invalid for many years. . . . Want to know what sort of a man William Shakespeare was? Then listen at 1 :00 this afternoon to Shakespeare's England on the NBC-Red network. The most famous playwright who ever lived is the hero of this new series. . . . Spy Secrets has replaced the Radio Newsreel on NBC-Red at 5:30. Barring an upset in his plans, Don Ameche will be back on the air at 8:00 tonight. Highlights For Sunday Sept. 4 Listen to Nan Wynn, CBS singer, on this afternoon's Summer Session show at 2:30. TWTUTUAL has a new show for your attention tonight at 6:30. To be called the Show oz the Week, it will feature different famous dance bands every Sunday at this time — and either Guy Lombardo or Richard Himber will be the main attraction tonight. . . . For all you tennis fans: This afternoon Ted Husing will continue to describe the Davis Cup tennis finals on CBS. They started yesterday — if you were listening. . . . Holidaying weekenders will enjoy the CBS Summer Session, with Barry Wood, at 2:30 this afternoon. Barry leaves something to be desired as a master of ceremonies, but his singing is swell and so is the rest of the music on this program. . . . TVan Wynn, the little girl vocalist on the Summer Session, was born in Wheeling, West Virginia, twenty years ago. People who knew her as a child certainly never expected her to be singing on a national radio network — she couldn't get a place on the school glee club because of her inability to sing the National Anthem. . . . But she wanted to sing and kept on studying until she got into vaudeville, and from there into radio . . . Nan spends most of her spare time looking for unusual swing songs, and is one of the few vocalists who sing Raymond Scott's weird compositions. You may have seen her recently in a movie short. Highlights For Sunday, Sept. 11 OTILL more signs that summer's over and the big 19381939 radio season is at hand! Four of your favorite shows are returning to the air, hurrying in to keep up the tradition that Sunday's the best listening day of the week. . " . First entrant is Bob Becker in his talks about dogs, which you really ought to listen to if you have a favorite pooch around your home. Bob is on NBC-Red from 1:45 to 2:00 this afternoon. . . . Next, at 5:00 on Mutual, the Musical Steelmakers return, with Sara Rehm, lovely blonde soprano, as the featured soloist. Sara, as well as all the other artists on the program, is an employee of the Wheeling Steel Corporation in West Virginia, where the show originates. ... At 6:00 this afternoon, on MBS, George Jessel is slated to bring back his successful program of last year for another season. And of course his lovely wife, Norma Talmadge, will be with him. . . .And tonight, at 9:00 on CBS, one of the oldestablished favorites returns— the Ford Symphony Hour — thus squashing rumors that Henry Ford was going to turn a cold shoulder to radio this year. John Charles Thomas is the guest star of the evening, and Eugene Ormandy directs the orchestra. John Charles Thomas sings tonight as a guest star on the returning Ford Hour. Highlights For Sunday, Sept. 18 Gladys Swarthout is the star soloist on tonight's Ford Symphony program at 9. ("J.LAMOROUS Gladys Swarthout is the guest star tonight on the Ford program, CBS at 9:00. Eugene Ormandy is still conducting the orchestra, and W. J. Cameron has one of his brief talks. ... In the sports bracket, you can listen to the Interzone tennis finals from Brookline, Massachusetts. Two networks, CBS and NBC, both have the broadcast You'd enjoy Way Down Home, on NBC-Blue this afternoon at 1:30. It's a dramatization of episodes in the life of James Whitcomb Riley, America's Hoosier poet, and in its quiet way it is very effective and may even make you want to shed a tear or two. . . . To make you feel more cheerful, listen to Sunday Drivers, on NBC-Red at 2:30. It's that rare thing, a comedy program with a purpose — which is to make motorists a little more safety-conscious. . . . Phil Cook's Almanac is on CBS at 7:00 now, while the Billy House Laughliner takes the former Almanac spot at 6:30. . . . Comedy is scarce in the late summer-time, so you'll probably not want to miss the Laughliner, even though — alas! — it isn't quite as funny as it might be. . . . To catch up on the past week's news — listen to Headlines and Bylines, CBS at 10:30. 42
