Meet Pamela and Jerry, radio's delightful couple whose adventures you hear on NBC, sponsored by Woodbury Cold Cream
PAM NORTH, like most happily married women, is an inveterate matchmaker, and simply won't rest until all her friends have achieved the same state. She has a weather eye out nowadays for a suitable wife for the Norths' old friend Lt. Wiegand, who isn't quite sure how he feels about the idea.

IN the first place, Pam and Jerry North aren't detectives — certainly not by vocation, at least. Jerry North is a book publisher, Pamela, a housewife, and together they're one of the most delightful pair of people you'd ever hope to meet.
Somehow or other, Pam and Jerry seem to attract mysteries as a magnet attracts steel. Their adventures, written by Frances and Richard Lockridge, have delighted magazine and book readers for several years, and the circle of their friends has grown tremen dously since they have brought their happy go lucky, fun and mystery filled home life to radio listeners. Sometimes it is the Norths' good friend Police Lt. Bill Wiegand who brings them into adventure, but more often than not adventure comes to them.
Pam and Jerry epitomize the eternal conflict between the male and female way of thinking. Men, as Jerry points out, reason from cause to effect, but Pam, as do so many other women, reaches a conclusion first and then scurries about to find facts to support her theory. Her reasoning, says Jerry, is fifty percent hunch, twenty-five percent likes and dislikes, and twentyfive percent common sense. However, when Pam tries to work things out according to Jerry's idea of the proper method, she does beautifully — but the answer is always wrong. Pam, though, is far from being a scatterbrain — it's >. just that she leaps from crag to crag in her thinking, touching the high spots; she always makes sense, even though Jerry and Bill sometimes fail to understand her.
Aside from mystery-solving, Pam North spends a good deal of her time trying to get Bill Wiegand married. Women scare Bill socially, but they love him on sight. Perhaps it's the picture of the home life of his right-hand man, Sgt. Aloysius Mullins, which troubles Bill — Mullins is the proud father of eight children. Bill's a fearless detective but a mighty scared man when it comes to asking a woman out for dinner.
Mr. and Mrs. North are heard over | NBC on Wednesdays at eight, EWT, ! seven, CWT, Tuesdays at nine, Pacific time and ten Mountain time.
