Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

ON THE AIR TONIGHT: Your Hit Parade, on CBS at 9:00, E.S.T., and 9:30, P.S.T., sponsored by Lucky Strike, and including precisely seven minutes of a show being put on at an army camp. There's more to this than meets the ear — about one hour and fifty-three minutes more, in fact. For all the time Mark Warnow and the Hit Parade orchestra are entertaining you on the air, another band, Jerry Lester, and a troupe of vaudevillians are entertaining soldiers at a private two-hour show of which you hear only a small part. Lucky Strike has a regular gang of entertainers who travel each week to a different army camp and put on a Saturday-night program with the aid of some well-known band which is playing in the vicinity of the camp. Of the whole troupe, you hear only Jerry Lester, the master of ceremonies, and the guest band of the week. The others do their acts before or after the seven minutes that are broadcast. Jerry Lester doesn't have much opportunity in those seven minutes to be a comedian, which is a pity, because he proved he was a good one last summer when he pinch-hit for Bob Hope. He was a night-club and vaudeville dancer and comedian before he came to radio — although his father, former music critic for a Chicago paper, had visions of seeing his son on the operatic stage and still hasn't quite reconciled himself to hearing him crack jokes instead. In his late twenties, Jerry has never stayed in one place long enough to have a home. Now he's living in the Hotel Astor, right in the middle of Times Square. He leaves every Friday for whatever camp he is to play Saturday, and returns on Sunday. He has a grand time in. the camps, where the soldiers call him Elsie Janis II. TUNE-IN BULLETINS March 29: President Roosevelt talks to the nation today from the Jackson Day dinner — on all networks, of course ... A new addition to network drama hours is the Guy Hedlund Players, on CBS-Red this afternoon at 3:30 . . . And this is the day when many U. S. radio stations must change their wave-lengths. You'll have to experiment when you dial your favorite program. April 5: Today's Guy Hedlund play: "Moonlight Sonata," in which Beethoven's music plays a prominent part. April 12: NBC has the Paumonok Handicap from the Jamaica track. April 19: The Excelsior Handicap race is being run at the Jamaica track — on NBC. < 10:00 8:00 8:00 8:15 8:30 8:30 8:45 9:00 9:00 9:00 9:30 9:30 9:30 9:45 10:00 10:00 10:15 10:30 10:30 10:30 10:30 10:45 11:30 11:30 12:00 12:00 12:30 1:00 1:00 1:30 2:00 2:00 2:30 3:00 3:00 3:05 3:30 3:30 3:30 3:45 3:45 3:45 4:00 4:00 4:00 4:30 4:30 4:45 8:00 5:00 8:30 5:15 8:30 5:30 5:30 8:00 9:00 6:00 6:00 6:00 6:30 6:30 6:35 6:45 7:00 7:00 7:15 7:45 8:05 3:15 3:15 10:15 Eastern Standard Time 8:00 8:00 8:15 8:15 8:30 8:30 9:05 10:45 11:15 10:45 11:00 11:45 12:15 12:45 2:30 3:30 4:30 5:05 6:15 6:45 7:15 11:45 12:00 12:45 1:15 3:30 4:30 5:30 6:05 7:15 7:45 8:15 CBS: News of Europe NBC-Red: News NBC-Blue: Cloutier's Orchestra NBC-Red: Gene and Glenn CBS: Hillbilly Champions NBC-Blue: Dick Leibert NBC-Blue: Harvey and Dell NBC-Red: Deep River Boys CBS: Press News NBC-Blue: Breakfast Club NBC-Red: News NBC-Red: Happy Jack CBS: Burl Ives NBC-Red: Market Basket CBS: Honest Abe NBC-Red: Four Showmen CBS: Welcome Lewis' Singing Bee NBC-Blue: Al and Lee Reiser NBC-Red: Lincoln Highway NBC-Blue: Richard Kent CBS: Old Dirt Dobber NBC-Blue: Orchestra NBC-Red: Betty Moore NBCRed: Bright Idea Club CBS: Symphony Concert NBC-Blue: Norsemen Quartet NBCRed: Fed.
