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

SAM RYDER never thought Janet would ever consent to marry him although he loved her dearly. So he became engaged to another girl. One day when they were out riding, their car broke down and they were forced to take shelter in a home where a child was sick with Scarlet Fever. They both were quarantined twentyeight days, and it was then that Janet discovered she was in love with Sam. He broke off his engagement and they were married. Sam has tried his hand at a number of professions but is now a radio announcer. Sam likes to tell amusing stories and keep people smiling. Sometimes his light-hearted jokes are too much for Janet and they scrap with each other fiercely. But after a few pots and pans are tossed about, they go back to being more in love than ever before. (Played by Olan Soule) ELLEN COLLINS is Dr. Bob's housekeeper. Ellen is quite bossy but everyone adores her and considers her a member of the family. Her first loyalty is to Dr. Bob whom Ellen has taken care of ever since he was a boy of eight and anyone who dares to cross him incurs her wrath. Not long ago, the doctor bought a dictaphone and hired a secretary to work with him on recording cases. Ellen suddenly appeared on the scene, berated the secretary, tried to run the machine herself and ruined it. After this fiasco, she claimed nobody appreciated her and wanted to leave. These are regular occurrences with Ellen. Now she feels responsible for Michael Kent's trouble because it was she who gave Michael the farm on which the murder was committed. Ellen's completely oldfashioned and slightly neurotic, but keeps things buzzing about the Graham household and is idolized by Dr. Bob and the twins (Played by Marie Nelson) 25
