Every few years Jane Froman makes up her mind to retire from show business and devote all her time to playing golf and being a model housewife. The decision never lasts more than a few months, and pretty soon she's back at work, probably on a schedule as crowded as the one she's been following this summer. For the record, that schedule is as follows: Singing in the star spot of the Texaco show, Sunday nights on CBS while Fred Allen is vacationing; appearing as a featured performer in Ed Wynn's Broadway hit, "Laugh Town Laugh," seven nights a week, matinees every day but Monday and Tuesday, and an extra show between the matinee and evening performance on Sunday; making records for the Columbia Record Company; singing a couple of times a week at the Stage Door Canteen; selling War Bonds and Stamps at various places around New York; and still finding time to be "the finest little wife in the country," according to her husband, Don Ross. Jane got into all this hustle-bustle by accident. She grew up in the town of Columbia, Missouri, and after singing in the local choir for years, decided she wanted to be an opera star. After she was graduated from the University of Missouri, she went to Cincinnati to get a job that would pay her expenses at the Conservatory of Music there. She got the job, and studied all the proper arias, never paying any attention to popular music until one night at a party she was asked to try singing one of the current song hits. When she finished, one of the guests complimented her by saying she should be on the air. The guest turned out to be Powell Crosley, the Cincinnati business man who owned everything from the local baseball team to the radio station. The next thing Jane knew, she was singing on Mr. Crosley's station at ten dollars a broadcast. That was in 1930, and Jane has been going strong ever since. Although she is today one of the highest-paid girl singers in the business, she's never lost her modesty, and says that there must be scores of girls who can sing as well and probably better than she — only they've never had the lucky break that gave her her start. She thinks the public will eventually tire of any performer, and has no patience with people who become puffed-up with their own importance. "Any one of us," she says, "can wake up some morning and find out that she — or he — is no longer wanted. But I'm not too worried. I can always go back to singing in the choir." 8:30 10:15 1:45 11:15 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 12:30 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 3:00 3:10 3:15 3:30 3:45 3:45 8:00 4:00 8:00 7:30 4:45 5:00 8:00 9:15 5:00 8:15 8:30 5:30 8:30 5:30 5:55 6:00 6:00 9:00 6:30 6:30 6:30 7:00 7.00 7:00 7:00 7:15 7:30 7:30 5:45 6:00 6:00 6:00 9:30 6:45 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:00 7:15 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:30 7:55 8:00 8:00 8:00 8:30 8:30 8:30 9:0010 9:00 10 9:00 10 9:00 10 9:15 10 9:30 10 9:30 10 I i u 8:00 8:15 8:45 9:00 9:00 9:15 9:15 9:15 9:30 9:30 9:30 9:45 10 9:45 10:00 10:00 10:15 10:15 10:30 10:30 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 2:30 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 5:00 6:30 5:10 5:15 5:30 5:45 MONDAY Eastern War Time 8:30 Blue: Teias Jim < US Blue: NBC 00 Blue: 15 CBS: 45 CBS: 00 CBS: 00 NBC 15 15 15 CBS 10 I ;i .i. 30INBC 45'CBS: Blue: CBS: NBC CBS: NBC CBS: NBC CBS: NBC CBS: NBC CBS: CBS: Blue: CBS: CBS: Blue: CBS: MBS Blue CBS: CBS: MBS NBC: CBS: NBC; CBS: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: CBS: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: Blue: NBC: Blue: NBC: CBS: NBC: CBS: NBC: CBS: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: Blue: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: NBC: CBS: Blue: CBS: Blue: CBS: CBS: CBS: CBS: Blue: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBCCBS: NBC: CBS: Blue: MBS: NBC: Blue: CBS: Blue: NBC: MBS: CBS: CBS: MBS: NBC: CBS: Blue: NBC: CBS: MBS: Blue: NBC Blue: CBS: NBC BREAKFAST CLU I The Radio Reader Hymns of All Churches Valiant Lady Bess Johnson Stories America Loves Helen Hiett Bachelor's Children Honeymoon Hill A House in the Country Help Mate Fletcher Wiley Chaplain Jim — U.
