ing on the floor and he was swinging the baton. Curt eyed the attractive girl, said to himself, "That's for me!"
Curt climbed off the bandstand and cut in. He did some very fast talking.
"You are very fresh, Mr. Massey," Edythe snapped.
But Curt knew twenty-four hours later he had made a permanent conquest. Edythe was back in the ballroom; this time alone. Edythe and Curt were married a few months later. That was thirteen years ago. They have one child, four-year-old Stephan Austin.
Shortly after his marriage, Curt suffered a nervous breakdown. The doctor ordered him to give up band work. The couple retreated to Roswell and spent a year on Dad Massey's ranch.
But then came a wire from sister Louise. She and her brother, Allen, husband Milton Mabie and a young singer named Larry Wellington had formed a singing unit. Would Curt join?
The Masseys and their partners clicked immediately on WLS, Chicago. They formed a corporation, rolled up an impressive recording library of western tunes. These discs are still being used on over 50 radio stations. Known as The Westerners, the singers soon went network, and radio veterans should remember their harmonies on the old Showboat, Plantation Party, Magic Key and Al Pearce shows.
Two years ago, when Louise retired, the act broke up and Curt went solo again. A booking agent suggested to Curt that he enter the swoon sweepstakes and tussle with Messers, Crosby, Sinatra, Haymes, and Russell. Curt was signed by a sponsor. A summer replacement for the Andrews Sisters, Curt clicked solidly and stayed on the show when the rhythmic trio returned, as well as singing for his own show.
RADIO MIRROR RECORD REFLECTIONS
WOODY HERMAN (Columbia) Harold Arlen's touching ballad "June Comes Around Every Year" gets good grooving while the Herman herd riffs out "Northwest Passage" on the reverse. TOMMY DORSEY (Victor) Remember Hoagy Carmichael's strange rhythms of "Hong Kong Blues" in "To Have And Have Not." Well, T.D. spins it out in special style, pairing it with the theme song of another favorite flicker, "You Came Along." JOAN EDWARDS (Cosmo) The Hit Parade Stylist swings out with "Gotta Be This Or That" and a memorable oldie, "Don't Blame Me."
XAVIER CUGAT (Columbia) The rumba king again demonstrates why he is top man with a maraca with this duo, "You Forgotcha Guitar" and "No Can Do." Lovely Leah Ray, long missing from radio and records, sings both sides and it's good to have her back.
BETTY HUTTON (Capitol) Nail down the carpets and close the windows or La Hutton's exuberance may cause your neighbors to complain. "Doin' It The Hard Way" is the appropriate title for the "A" side. Toned down on the reverse, Betty turns on the nostalgic "What Do You Want to Make Those Eyes For" just as she does it in "Incendiary Blonde."

IS A SUM, TRIM BEAUTY NOW!
Fat and forgotten a few months ago, Virginia Josselyn of Denver, Colo., loses 49 pounds, becomes poised and popular.
"I know what it is to be 14, fat, and forgotten," says Virginia Josselyn. "I was left out of the parties a school girl loves. And no wonder. I weighed 164 and was getting heavier. Then, with Mother's approval, I started the DuBarry Success Course right at home. In three months I lost 30 pounds, in five months, 49 ! Now, at 115 pounds, my dress size is 9 instead of 20! My skin is smooth and lovely and I've learned the art of subtle make-up.
"What a difference all this has made in my life. I've been to two formals— something for a freshman! My week is filled with dates and doings in the clubs and groups I now belong to. I have so much pep, I whiz through my housework in no time at all, then I'm off to go swimming, hiking, biking. You have made me a very happy girl, with a bright new future."
A WORD FROM VIRGINIA'S MOTHER
"For years we had been heartsick because of our daughter's handicap. I consulted our doctor about the Success Course, and he approved. She has completed it with such success, I can scarcely tell you how happy it has made us." Mrs. L. V. Josselyn.
