We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

HE'S DOIN' FINE. THANKS . . .
If you have a small son whom you would like to see grow up to be a successful and highly paid master of ceremonies on a network question-and-answer program, here is what you must do:
First, be a school teacher yourself and fill the boy with information about every subject under the sun. Second, at an early age start teaching him to speak in public and encourage him to think up retorts and funny comments on the spur of the moment. Third, see to it that he appears in school plays, entertainments, debates, and so on. After that, give him his head. He'll probably turn out to be a book-keeper.
The system worked with Bob Hawk, though, even if his mother, at the time, didn't know there ever would be such a thing as a radio quiz program. One coincidence helped. Bob had graduated from college and was all set to become, at the age of twenty, teacher of public speaking at Northwestern College in Oklahoma, when he visited his mother in Chicago. Idling in a candy store one afternoon, he heard someone reading poetry on the radio. On impulse he stepped into a telephone booth, called the station and made an appointment for an audition. To his own surprise he was hired as an announcer— although for the first year or so no money was attached to the job. The lack of pay didn't make any difference: the radio bug had bit him.
For three years he worked announcing programs on different Chicago stations, but it wasn't until 1931 that he came into his own as a master of the ad lib, or spontaneous, unrehearsed remark. That was when he was given the duty of introducing the numbers on a program of records called Red Hot and Low Down. Even the title of the show popped out of his mouth one day at the mike.
In 1932 he scooped the entire radio world by interviewing Franklin D. Roosevelt on the day of his nomination. The broadcast had been planned for Chicago, but when Bob heard that F.D.R. was going to be at the Gary airport hours earlier he arranged secretly for a transmitter to be installed there, met the future President, and put him on the air ahead of everyone else. Another of his history-making exploits, in 1935, was conducting a "man in the street" interview with Jean Harlow which caused 50,000 people to block traffic in the Chicago Loop district while it was being held. From there it was only a step to becoming master of ceremonies on quiz shows— first one called Fun Quiz, then Foolish Questions, then Name Three, then Take It or Leave It, and now How'm I Doin'? — on which you can hear him every Friday night over CBS.
Bob is a bachelor, and is violently fond of two diversions — playing golf and going to the theater. It's nothing out of the way for him to attend three plays a week or spend five successive afternoons on the golf links.
