Name . . . Address. City .State.. THE All time given is Eastern Standard JOE COOK'S SHELL SHOW, broadcast Saturday over the NBC Red network at 9:30, combines the best and worst features of a radio variety hour. An average of a dozen guest stars parade before the mike each hour and perform under Joe's playful prodding. The best feature is the ever changing performance, the worst feature the endless amount of talk necessary to introduce each act. It gets downright boring at times. But the program does deserve a trial. Tune in at least once. JACK OAKIE'S COLLEGE, Tuesday at 9:30 on CBS, introduces another of Hollywood's bright boys to radio in his first sponsored series. Jack's the president of a mythical college, and if you've never thought of him in that profession before, that's the reason it's funny. Add Benny Goodman's and Georgie Stoll's orchestras, assorted Hollywood guest stars, and college glee clubs from here, there, and everywhere, and you have the show. Yes, it's another variety hour, but with a difference. Mrs. Oakie's boy is one of the most definite personalities Hollywood has given radio, and his efforts hold all these diverse elements together in a bright, swiftly paced hour of entertainment. You ought to like it. PALMOLIVE BEAUTY BOX, starring Jessica Dragonette, at 9:30 Wednesday on CBS, got off to a shaky start when Miss Dragonette had to stay in bed with the flu. Lanny Ross, rushed in as a last minute substitute, did a very special job of pinch hitting. Ruby Mercer in the feminine lead did practically as well. It's amazing how easily this program squeezes a whole musical comedy into the brief space of thirty minutes and still allows time for soap to be sold. I'll still take the Beauty Box in a full hour, but I'm not paying the bills. If you were a staunch fan of the old Beauty Box, I think you'll like this as the next best thing. WATCH THE FUN GO BY, with Al Pearce and his gang, Tuesday on CBS at 9:00, is the first of the two half-hour shows which take the place of Fred Waring's orchestra. Al's a veteran air comedian, and he has most of his veteran gang with him — Tizzie Lish, Arlene Harris, Elmer Blurp, Lord Bilgewater, and Eb and Zeb (Eb and Elmer, in case you didn't know, being Al himself). Not all of them on each program, however. Sometimes the hu 14
