SIMPLICITY of attire seems to be the vogue among radio stars for the moment. At the Lux Theatre the other evening, Joan Crawford wore a black crepe suit, with only a simple white collar as a decorative note. Ginger Rogers, the following week, had on a gray jersey dress of the shirtmaker type, with a bright scarf at the neck and no hat, while Madeleine Carroll's dress, on another Lux Theatre show, was of green wool with only a narrow pigskin belt and beige hat to relieve the plainness of her costume. Of all the programs, Hollywood Hotel is the one on which the stars seem to "dress up" the most. Perhaps the "Orchid Room" has something to do with this, for each star who appears as guest is gifted with a tremendous corsage of purple orchids, which need considerable "dressing up to."

THE most "specialised" musicia)is in radio, according to Walt Disney, are the members of Donald Duck's "IVebfooi Se.vtet," featured on the Mickey Mouse Theatre of the Air. "Certainly they're the most specialised," says Walt, defending .his latest brain-iijave. "They have to he, to get sicing rhythms out of some old pipe, lyaby rattles, wafer-filled bottles and ivooden blocks." WHEN their dad's birthday rolled around last month, Sandra and Ronnie Burns decided to do something extra-special by way of celebration. So they made him a birthday cake. Fallen in the middle, but brave with candles and an inch-thick layer of icing, the cake made its appearance at the breakfast table on the festive day. The children carefully watched George and Gracie each down a large,soggy slice, but insisted that all they cared for was buttered toast.
