Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

The Army Service Forces Radio Unit puts on some of the best shows on the air these days. And one of the people responsible for the superior quality of the acting, at least, on these shows is a corporal named Carl Rukauff. Corp. Rukauff does so much acting, announcing and narrating on the ASF shows you hear Monday through Friday at 5 p.m. (EWT) over CBS and on the Mutual show, Your Army Service Forces, on Wednesdays at 12: 30 p.m. (EWT) , that he's come to be known as the Voice of the Army Service Forces. Corp. Rukauff is a very tall, broadshouldered man with the kind of good looks that make you wonder why the movies didn't snatch him up. He has a great deal of poise and an easy, casual manner. He was born in Philadelphia and grew up there; kind of dreamed his way to a B.A. degree, got his first job on the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, a ponderous, heavyhanded newspaper, known as the "Sleeping Giant." Then, one hot summer day, while Carl Rukauff was trying to stay bearably cool by drinking a little beer, a very inconsiderate but newsworthy gentleman managed to get himself bumped off. The Bulletin's rival, the Evening Ledger, carried the story, but the Bulletin did not. Mr. Rukauff was fired. He promptly got himself a job with the Ledger, where he remained until the depression forced that paper to cut down. That left him with only the theatre. He worked at the Hedgerow Theatre for about two years. Then, as he says, the ham came out in him and he decided to tackle Broadway. He got jobs easily enough. The only trouble was they were always parts in flops. Every time a play would close, Rukauff would talk himself into an announcing job on some local radio station. That job would last until the next play came up. Finally, he hit a year's run in "Leave It To Me," playing the juvenile lead opposite Tamara, who, he says, "was a very swell lady." Success rather changed his attitude toward the scrambling-around kind of living he'd been making. He went after radio work seriously and with very little trouble got all the jobs he possibly could handle on all the top shows. The U. S. Army beckoned in October 1942. The Classification Officer who interviewed him must have got just a little confused by alFof Rukauff's background, training and experience. So, Carl Rukauff went to Ft. McClellan, Alabama, to take his basic training in the Infantry. After his basic, he was transferred to Ft. Benning, Georgia, where he was put to slightly better use as an instructor. Then, the Film Division of the Signal Corps heard of him and he was soon transferred to Astoria, Long Island, to work in training films. From there he was transferred to the Army Service Forces Radio Unit and proceeded to earn himself the title of "The Voice"— of the Army Service Forces. 6:00 1:30 8:15 6:45 8:30 2:00 8:00 8:00 12:30 8:30 8:45 8:45 8:45 9:00 9:15 9:30 9:30 9:45 10:00 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 3:00 12:45 1:00 1:00 1:00 1:15 1:30 1:30 1:30 1:30 1:45 2:00 2:00 2:15 2:15 5:30 2:30 2:30 5:45 2:45 3:30 3:15 3:55 8:00 8:00 8:15 4:00 4:15 9:30 4:45 9:00 8:00 9:15 9:00 8:15 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 WEDNESDAY Eastern War Time 9:00 9:00 9:15 9:30 8:15 8:30 9:00 9:00 9:00 9:10 9:45 10:00 9:45 10:00 10:00 10:15 10:15 10:30 6:15 6:30 6:30 6:45 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:15 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:55 8:00 8:00 :00 8:00 8:30 8:30 8:30 8:55 9:00 9:00 9:00 9:30 10: 10: Blue: Your Life Today Blue: News CBS: News Blue: Breakfast Club NBC: Ed East & Polly CBS: American School of the Air CBS: This Life Is Mine CBS: Valiant Lady NBC: Nation's Rations NBC: Robert St. John Blue: My True Story NBC: Lora Lawton CBS: Light of the World CBS: Strange Romance of Evelyn Winters Blue: Cliff Edwards, Songs NBC: Finders Keepers CBS: Bachelor's Children Blue: The Listening Post Blue: Breakfast at Sardi's NBC: Road to Life CBS: Amanda CBS: Second Husband CBS: Bright Horizon Blue: Gilbert Martyn CBS: Aunt Jenny's Stories Blue: Bob Johnston & llene Wood NBC: David Harum Blue: Glamour Manor CBS: Kate Smith Speaks NBC: Words and Music CBS: Big Sister NBC: U.
