RADIO STARS HAVE YOU HEARD? Our cameraman had no trouble catching Fred Allen, Grade Allen and George Burns in a cuckoo moment. Mr. Jack Pearl: Honorable: With deep affection I correspondence with you. Your radio speak very, very ridicule. Missus and I, myself laughter with hands hold sides from split. Very, very ridicule. The honorable Charles very, very good, too. Missus like him loads whiph making me very, very zealous. All very funny. M uch best of luck. Sincerely, Walter T. Wong, Esq. The epistle now hangs on the Munchausen wall, suitably framed and preserving for Jack to exhibition by his honorable grandchildren. words were passed from one to the other, re-heated and passed right back again. In the end, rumor has it, La Etting unpacked her bag and wired Chevalier to find another leading voom-voom. Which is just too bad, a lot of chappies think, because those Ruthie-toot-toot tones and curves opposite the famous Hapsburg ip would make a riot of a movie.

When Kate planned to put it on a program the other day, she discovered that Al had already sung it. So Kate burned. And now the greatest he-and-she singers in the business are sticking out tongues and pouting. 'Stoo bad, 'stoo bad, says Filbert the office flea. No song is that important. Why can't both these warblers sing it, anyway? 5
