Brighten Your Meals With Canned Milk (Continued from page 54) after singing with Gus Arnheim's orchestra on the Coast, where I also did some movie work, and had decided to try my luck in New York. So on I came — in a bus and nearly broke my back — with about seven dollars to my name when 1 landed here. I got a couple of solo spots on the air which paid my hotel bill, and had a few auditions. After one audition my accompanist and I were going down in an elevator in Radio City and ran into Dell — he and my accompanist were old friends but of course I didn't know him. "Well, Dell seemed to decide that I was a nice young girl who didn't know her way around in New York — and how right he was about that! — so he took me under his wing. We had dinner together, and went to movies when he had time off from his radio assignments. And we played Russian Bank together almost every night — Dell didn't know until after we were married that sometimes if I hadn't won half a dollar from him at Russian Bank I wouldn't have had breakfast the next morning. "Then I went back west — none of the auditions had resulted in a contract — wrote Dell a polite 'thank you' note, received one from him in return, and thought that was that. It wasn't until I returned to New York for one day before going on to Boston, and Dell took me to dinner and put me on my train, that I said to myself 'Meri Bell, I think you're in love.' I was, and so was Dell, and as soon as I got back to New York after finishing my New England contract in March, we were married." ^ELL took up the story. "The next step ■^ was to find a house, not a hotel apartment with kitchenette, and as soon as we found one, Meri Bell turned into a housewife as well as being a singer." "That was hard at first," Meri Bell said, "but we both wanted a home with real home-cooked meals. Dell hates restaurants." "I'll say I do." Dell broke in from behind his luncheon menu. "They're always like this — I ordered creamed chipped beef and it's all out." He gave the waiter a substitute order, then turned back to Meri Bell. "What are we going to have for dinner tonight?" "Mushrooms a la king and peppermint ice cream — how's that?" "Swell. We have the biggest refrigerator in captivity," he told me, "and Meri Bell makes the best ice cream you've ever tasted, not to mention the mushrooms." "They're both simple, really," Meri Bell said, "and the recipes are practically fool proof — they're made with canned milk — which is certainly a selling point for cooks as inexperienced as I was when I started out."
