Edna May Oliver, whom you've seen in the movies even if you attend them only once a year or so, and who is starring in her first regular weekly radio show these summer Sunday afternoons, is a perfect example of the fact that even accidents have their uses. If, when she took her first movie test, she hadn't happened to sniff, she might not be the famous comedienne she is now. Of course, her face helped. But that sniff sold her to the movie executives who saw the test. Edna May was born Edna May Nutter in Boston, and she isn't saying when. She intended to be an opera singer, and after family reverses forced her to start earning money when she was only sixteen, she actually did sing in operettas. But the company was a small one, and it toured New England parks during the summer, with the result that so much singing in the night air caused Edna May to lose her voice entirely. She then went to work as a seamstress's assistant. As she sewed, she gave imitations of various people to entertain the other girls in the shop, and they finally suggested that she go on the stage. Edna May was naturally very shy, but she didn't like sewing as a life-work, so she acted on the suggestion and for years toured in stock companies, some small and some large. Finally she landed in New York and began the appearances in stage plays which led to a triumphant run in the first production of "Show Boat," and then to Hollywood. By this time she has become accustomed to having a face which, while it certainly wouldn't win any beauty contests, is quite literally her fortune. Once she was shocked when a play reviewer said she looked as though someone had just taken the harness off, but in Hollywood she's used to hearing herself referred to as "Hoss-face Oliver." She's been married — just once, to David Welford Pratt, a broker, but the marriage lasted only a month or so, although it was three years before they were divorced. Edna May can be as grimly humorous in real life as she is in movies and radio. Once George Cukor, the director, jokingly told a film critic that Edna's performance in a certain picture was terrible. The critic took the information seriously, and quoted Cukor in print. A few weeks later Edna invited Cukor, the possessor of a famous appetite, to a dinner that consisted of a chopped raw beet appetizer, shredded raw carrots as a main course and wholegrain rice in milk for dessert. Cukor has never joked at Edna's expense since. 8:30 10:15 1:45 11:15 8:45 9:00 9:00 9:15 9:30 9:30 9:45 10:00 10:00 10:15 10:15 10:15 10:30 10:45 10:45 4:15 11:00 12:30 11:15 11:30 11:30 11:30 11:45 11:45 12:00 12:00 12:15 12:15 12:30 12:30 12:45 12:45 1:00 1:00 1:15 1:15 1:30 1:30 1:45 1:45 2:00 2:00 2:00 2:15 2:15 2:30 2:30 2:30 2:45 2:45 2:45 3:10 3:15 3:30 3:45 3:45 8:00 4:00 8:00 7:30 4:45 5:00 9:15 5:00 8:30 5:30 5:5S 6:00 t:00 6:00 9:00 6:30 6:30 6:30 7:00 8:15 7:00 7:30 7:30 r5 o 8:00 8:15 8:45 9:00 9:00 9:15 9:15 9:15 9:30 9:30 9:45 10:00 10:00 10:00 10:15 10:15 10:15 10:30 10:30 10:30 10:45 10:45 10:45 11:00 11:00 11:15 11:30 11:30 11:45 12:00 12:00 12:15 12.-15 12:15 12:30 12:45 12:45 12:45 1:00 1:00 1:15 1:15 1:30 1:30 1:30 1:45 1:45 1:45 2:00 2:00 2:00 2:15 2:15 2:30 2:30 2:45 2:45 3:00 3:00 3:15 3:15 3:30 3:30 3:45 3:45 4:00 4:00 4:00 4:15 4:15 4:30 4:30 4:30 4:45 4:45 4:45 6:30 5:10 5:15 5:30 5:45 5:45 6:00 6:00 6:00 9:30 6:45 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:55 8:00 8:00 8:00 8:00 8:30 8:30 8:30 9:00 9:00 9:00 9:30 9:30 MONDAY Eastern War Time 8:30|Blue Texas Jim 9:00 Blue BREAKFAST CLUB 15 CBS The Radio Reader 5 CBS Harvey and Dell 00 (lis Valiant Lady 00. m Bess Johnson 15 CBS Stories America Loves 5 Blue Helen Hiett 15 NBC: Bachelor's Children 30 Blue: A House in the Country 30 NBC: Help Mate 4S inn.
