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

Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Jane began singing professionally with her two sisters, might never have soloed if matrimony hadn't claimed the other girls. POETRY SKIDROW New masterpieces in misfortune, old Chipped marbles, bronzes traced by tragedy: Hamlet is here, grown grim in misery, And Lochinvar in rags, and Hotspur cold, Silently conning yesterdays he sold For pittances of flesh; they make their plea For dimes and butts in whined biography: Park benches, cops and jails and being rolled. Blind as old Milton and yet blinder still, Exiled as Dante seeing hell again; And yet their muted presence seems to fill Galleries of our contemporaneous night: "Move over, Mister, we shall meet you then." — Cullen Jones SEA REQUIEM At rest at last in your arms I lie. Stirred by the wind and touched by the sky. Kissed by the moon since time was begun, • Watched by the stars and caressed by the sun. Fed by the raindrops, enriched by the streams. Singing a song full of sailors' dreams — Soft in melody, sweet in rhyme. Strong as for ever, faithful as time. Eternal rest within your doors. Your peace is mine and I am yours. —Walter S. Starkey KOREAN INCIDENT I've walked these roads before In other times, in other lands I've walked the foreign shore To stand upon these timeless sands. I am not stranger to These fields and hills. I've stood beneath This sky and felt this dew Fall like the evening tears of death. Nor are these folk unknown To me for in familiar eyes I see the ancient tone Of recognition's old surprise. I am not stranger here. A piece of earth somewhere beside This road I walk is near The time and place where once I died. —Dan Kelly RADIO MIRROR WILL PAY FIVE DOLLARS for the best original poems sent in each month by readers.
