Tune-In Bulletin for October 28. November 4, 11, 18 and 25! October 28: Have you succeeded yet in finding all your favorite daytime serials since Daylight Saving Time ended and so many of them changed time? The program guide at the left ought to help you out, if you haven't. November 4: The positively final campaign speeches are on the air tonight, and the Democrats have the last word, with a program on NBC-Red from I 1:00 to 12:00, E.S.T. November II: Twenty-two years ago today an Armistice was signed for the first World War. November 18: There's plenty of drama on the air tonight: Those We Love, I Love a Mystery, the Lux Theater. November 25: Find out how rubber is extracted from trees and made into useful articles by listening to Americans at Work, this morning at 9:15 on CBS. It's part of the School of the Air. ON THE AIR TONIGHT: Those We Love, a dramatic serial starring Nan Grey, Donald Woods, Richard Cromwell and Helen Wood, on CBS at 8:00 E.S.T. and 9:00 P.S.T., and sponsored by Teel. Because the people in Those We Love ore pleasant, normal and interesting, this has become so popular a serial that it has been able to survive extended vacations off the air, plus changes in time, network, and sponsorship. The four young stars of Those We Love are as handsome a group of kids as you'd ever want to meet. Three of them — Nan Grey, Donald Woods and Richard Cromwell, who play Kathy, Dr. Leslie Foster, and Kit — come to radio from the movies. The fourth, Helen Wood, who is Elaine Dascom, is a product of radio, although she has appeared in a few movies as well. Oscar O'Shea, as John Marshall, Alma Kruger as Aunt Emily, and Virginia Sale as Martha, are all veterans of both stage and screen. Virginia Sale is the sister of the late Chic Sale, and like him, specializes in homespun dialects. Agnes Ridgeway, who writes Those We Love, says that the character of Martha, as Virginia plays her, is the kind of cook who can "cook for company either way — either so they'll come again or so they'll stay away." A full-fledged member of the cast is Lee Millar, who does dog-barks and otherwise impersonates Rags, the Marshall's dog. A real dog, naturally, couldn't be trusted to bark when the script cued him in, so an imitator must be employed. However, there is a real Rags who is the mascot for Those We Love and comes to every rehearsal. He's part Sealyham and part runt sheepdog, and Lee Millar has regular work-outs with him, when he studies Rags' barks and growls and whines to make sure that the imitations are perfect. In addition, he once made a set of phonograph records, including sounds made by the dog and by himself. When listeners weren't able to tell the difference, Lee relaxed and knew he was a success. The amazing things that go on in radio! Nan Grey, whose real name is Eschol Miller, is the wife of Jackie Westrope, one of America's best and most successful jockeys. Nan loves horses, and would like to be as expert at riding them as her husband is, but he doesn't believe in busman's holidays and refuses to ride in his leisure time. And since her leisure time usually coincides with his, Nan's pretty much given up her ambition. Richard Cromwell and Helen Wood are both unmarried, but Donald Woods is the husband of Josephine Van der Horck. They eloped to Tiajuana, Mexico, in 1928, and have two children now — Conrad, 7, and Linda Margaret, 4. Conrad, since he is "a chip off the old block," is appropriately nicknamed "Splinter." SAY HELLO TO . . . JOSEPHINE GILBERT — Chicago-born actress who plays Miss Branch in Kitty Keene, dramatic serial heard over NBC-Red in Chicago and westward. Josephine found her first radio success in Detroit, where she played in The Green Hornet and other programs, then returned to work in her home town, Chicago. While Midstream was on the air, she was heard as Amy. She's tiny and vivacious. Complete Programs from October 25 to November 26 BECEMCBEB, 1940 39
