You can't hear them all on the same night, but whichever ya pick you'll hear some good entertainment. you ON THE AIR TODAY: Lone Journey, on NBC-Red at 5:15, E.S.T., sponsored by the makers of Dreft. You won't hear much melodrama if you listen to Lone Journey, but you will hear the story of some real, human people, well written and well acted. The author of Lone Journey is this year's radio sensation, Sandra Michael, who also writes another NBC serial, Against the Storm. Lone Journey is about a man who is an idealist and a woman who isn't, and the conflict that comes when they fall in love and marry. Claudia Morgan, one of the New York stage's loveliest stars, plays the leading feminine role, that of Nita Bennett. She's the daughter of Ralph Morgan and the niece of Frank, of the movies, but although she's acted in a few films most of her fame has been won on the stage. Wolfe Bennett, the hero, is played by Lester Damon, another of radio's recruits from the stage. He's thirty-two years old, and began his career fourteen years ago playing in stock in his native town of Providence, R.I. Later he was in Shakespearean plays in England, then returned to New York and was in the original stage production of "Dead End." You've heard him on the air since 1938. Two of the best characters in Lone Journey are Henry Newman and Mrs. King, played by Cliff Soubier and Grace Valentine. Cliff is a veteran of the air, and used to live in Chicago, appearing in several radio programs every day. Lone Journey at first originated in Chicago, but recently moved to New York, and Cliff moved with it. He's stocky, jovial, and very versatile. He claims he learned versatility as a boy when he played with medicine shows and carnivals, doing just about everything there was to be done in each. In one traveling company he was an acrobat in part of the show, and used to fall "dead" on the stage with his legs and body in full view of the audience and his head in the wings — so he could play his own dirge on a cornet. Grace Valentine (Mrs. King, the salty Western character) was in the movies in the days when Hollywood was just a sand lot. After talkies came in she made some more pictures, but then returned to New York. Lone Journey is directed by John Gibbs, a tall, handsome man who is not only Sandra Michael's business manager but her husband as we'l. S^/^eMZ FEBRUARY, 1941 SEYMOUR YOUNG — who at sixteen is one of radio's veterans. He had his first audition in 1933, when he was nine, and NBC talent pickers described him then as "flat and colorless." Later in the same year he tried again and got a job. Now you hear him as Jacob Kransky in The Guiding Light. He can also sing, dance, play the piano, and do dialect impersonations. His hobby is drawing pencil portraits and sketches, which he gives to the members of the casts of radio shows he works on. Some day, if radio doesn't turn into a life work for him, he'd like to be a cartoonist. His recreation is horseback riding. 41
