Page Eighteen RADIO DOINGS December, 19?0 What Price Television? IT really isn't fair to be both beautiful and talented, hut nevertheless it goes right on happening as witness this page of fair harmonizers. The Boswell Sisters, with their soft Louisiana accent, began showing promise with Connie, who at seven, played the 'cello in the New Orleans Philharmonic Orchestra. After making Victor records, appearing in vaudeville and moving pictures, the girls have more or less settled down to radio broadcasting from the San Francisco studios ot the National Broadcasting Company. Connie shines as a "blues" singer; Martha plays all the accompaniments and sings her part and Vet harmonizes, plays several instruments and doubles for the "plunk" of a banjo in an amazing manner. The Keller Sisters, comely, vivacious, harmonious, are rightly billed as a "Peach of a Pair." Thc:r work is facile, soft and exceedingly melodious, the result of in tensive professional training.
