ON THE AIR TODAY: Home of the Brave, on CBS at 2:45 P.M., E.S.T., sponsored by Calumet Baking Powder and Swansdown Flour. The title is a little bit misleading, in a way. This drama is a story of patriotism, but it isn't the flag-waving kind. It's the kind of patriotism that goes deeper, and has its roots in the love of a land, of traditions, and of ideals. The most important person in Home of the Brave is Joe Meade, somebody you'll look forward to meeting every day. Joe has lots of the common sense that has always been so important in shaping America. Since he was raised on a ranch, he'd refer to this gift as "horse-sense" whenever he spotted it in somebody else; he wouldn't ever spot it in himself. He hasn't much use for "isms" of any kind, and he can recognize anything that's false or phoney a mile away. Tom Tully is the name of the radio actor who plays Joe. Like his radio character, he's big, ruggedly handsome, and deepvoiced. Like the character he plays in the serial, he was born in the West — in Durango, Colorado, a mining town in the heart of the Rockies. He left Colorado by joining the Navy, and got his first glimpse of New York from the Brooklyn Navy Yard. After he left the Navy he tried writing short stories about his experiences, but none of them were published. Then, as he says, he "sweated, starved, argued, persuaded, cried and finally beat his way through Broadway, the legitimate stage and radio" into his present position as a successful actor. Dick Widmark plays the role of Neil. He's a good-looking young actor who first saw the light of day in the peculiarlynamed town of Sunrise, Minnesota, in 1914. But the family soon moved to Evanston, Illinois, which Dick refers to now as his home town. He's a graduate of Lake Forest College, where he served for two years as an instructor of speech and drama. He crashed radio two and a half years ago via the Aunt Jenny program. Not married, he lives in a New York apartment where he devotes his time to furthering his radio career, reading, and playing the drums. Dick's leading lady, Joan Banks, who plays the part of Lois, is a beautiful blonde who is married to radio actor Frank Lovejoy, the lucky fellow. She and her husband lead very quiet lives, as they both carry heavy radio schedules. Her favorite possession is her Cocker spaniel. S«y^e£&7o 52 MARY YOUNG— a former Ziegfeld Follies girl who is now bringing glamor to the role of Lily, the Creole, on Arnold Grimm's Daughter, heard today on NBC. Mary began her theatrical career as a dancer in a Russian ballet, switched to the Follies, and then in 1935 successfully auditioned for a radio job in Detroit. Two years later she married radio writer Charles Gussman, and they moved to Chicago to live. Mary was born in Chestnut Mound, Tenn., 22 years ago, and was educated in Detroit. When she isn't acting in the Chicago radio studios she's very busy being the mother of a little daughter who arrived in the world just six months ago. RADIO AND TELEVISION MIHROB
