When WABC was looking for just the right person to put over a special series of programs designed to recruit WACs for the General Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. Company, the executives, to a man decided Margaret Arlen was the one to do the job. And she did it. In one month's time, due to Miss Arlen's persuasive and logical talks, 1,475 applications were received. And this in spite of the fact that the war news at that time was good and that the girls who applied knew in advance that they weren't offering to sign up for any possible romantic overseas duty. Miss Arlen is from North Carolina. Her father is the Rev. H. B. Hines of Oriental, North Carolina, and her mother still teaches school there. Margaret is an honor graduate of Meredith College, in Raleigh, N. C. and, since her graduation, much of her varied work was a sort of unconscious preparation for the regular program she now has on CBS at 8:45 A.M. (EST), Mondays through Saturdays. Long before she ever thought of radio as a career, Margaret was laying the foundation for it. She was a teacher, for awhile, and a social worker. She also did a lot of writing and some editing. She did a lot of public speaking in the South, before women's clubs and civic groups and that led, eventually, to her attracting the attention of local radio executives. Miss Arlen — then known as Margaret Early — finally got the job of director of women's activities at station WGBR in Goldsboro, N. C, which turned out to be a much larger job than the title indicates. Miss Early was at various times, on that station, a continuity writer, book reviewer, director of fashion shows and commentator. She also filled in as station organist and contralto soloist. All of which was excellent experience if a somewhat full sehedule. Then, Miss Arlen moved over to station WRAL, at Raleigh, N. C, again to do odd jobs, among them being a special events announcer — a job rarely given to women, since it includes announcing and broadcasting descriptions of sports events. Miss Arlen compromised on that part of the job, by describing the crowds at football games, while a sports announcer took over the actual game itself. She was later made program director for this station. All her experience — as a teacher, a speaker, a writer — and all her accumulated impressions and knowledge, gathered over the years when she was doing all kinds of assignments and meeting all kinds of people, are the things that make her daily morning program the interesting, human show that it is. She knows and understands women and their needs and desires especially well. This understanding, no doubt, was effective in the strenuous campaign she waged to help recruit the needed WACs to take care of our wounded and disabled. And with it all she remains charming, serene, always calm. 6:00 6:15 8:15 6:45 10:30 8:30 2:00 8:00 8:00 12:30 8:30 8:45 8:45 8:45 9:15 9:30 9:30 9:45 10:00 10:15 10:15 10:30 10:45 10:45 11:00 11:00 12:15 11:15 11:15 11:30 11:30 11:30 11:45 11:45 12:00 12:00 12:15 12:30 12:30 1:00 1:00 1:15 1:30 1:30 1:45 2:00 2:00 2:00 2:15 2:15 5:30 2:30 2:30 5:45 2:45 3:30 3:15 8:00 4:45 9:00 8:00 9:15 9:00 8:30 8:30 8:30 5:55 6:00 6:00 6:00 6:00 6:30 6:30 6:30 6:55 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:30 O 8:00 8:00 2:30 9:30 9:00 9:00 WEDNESDAY Eastern Standard Time ABC: Breakfast Club NBC: Ed East & Polly CBS: Arthur Godfrey CBS: Valiant Lady NBC: Daytime Classics NBC: Robert St. John ABC: My True Story NBC: Lora Lawton MBS: From Me to You CBS: Light of the World CBS: Evelyn Winters ABC: Hymns of All Churches NBC: Road of Life MBS: Fun with Music CBS: Bachelor's Children ABC: The Listening Post NBC: Joyce Jordan ABC: Tom Breneman's Breakfast NBC: Fred Waring Show CBS: Amanda CBS: Second Husband MBS: Elsa Maxwell CBS: A Woman's Life ABC: Gilbert Martyn NBC: Barry Cameron MBS: Take It Easy Time CBS: Aunt Jenny's Stories ABC: Ted Malone NBC: David Harum ABC: Glamour Manor CBS: Kate Smith Speaks MBS: Morton Downey CBS: Big Sister NBC: From the Pacific CBS: Romance of Helen Trent ABC: Farm and Home Makers CBS: Our Gal Sunday CBS: Life Can Be Beautiful CBS: Ma Perkins ABC: Constance Bennett CBS: Margaret Macdonald CBS: Young Dr. Malone ABC: Chicago Varieties NBC: The Guiding Light ABC: John B.
