Your cough may be a warning signal! Why neglect it? Do as millions have done! Use Pertussin, a safe and pleasant herbal syrup for children and grownups. Many physicians have prescribed Pertussin for over 30 years. It's safe and acts quickly. At all drug counters. For generous FREK trial bottle, write to Pertussin, Ppt.S-16,440 Washington St., New York City. 84 WHAT DO YOU WANT TO KNOW? Whenever there's a special news event being broadcast over the CBS network you usually hear Bob Trout's voice. BOB TROUT, crack public events , announcer of the Columbia Broadcasting System, has gone a long way since the day he first faced a microphone, required to read from a newspaper for five minutes. Radio history tells us that the audition proved quite successful — despite a bad case of nervous fright. And today, some eight years later, radioman Trout is reading more newspapers and more news bulletins than ever before. Bob was born on a farm in Wake County, North Carolina, October 15, 1908, and made his debut as an announcer over Station WJSV in Washington, D. C. He's been with Columbia since WJSV joined that network in 1932, and during that time has presented the President of the United States on almost every occasion when the latter has been on the air. During the past hectic weeks Bob has been on the air almost daily, acting as New York co-ordinator of news roundups from the various foreign capitals, and broadcasting all available war news material. In addition, Bob announces the weekly Professor Quiz show and has had a feature spot with Hal Kemp on Time to Shine. Bob has long since lost his Southern accent, but never his taste for Southern cooking, and has often been known to invite his friends home for some fried chicken and corn bread a la Trout! He weighs 140 lbs, is 6' 1" tall, and has dark brown hair and eyes. He dislikes noise and dirt, and some day wants to own a farm in the country . . . and a radio station in the city! Miss Sue Yates, Little Rock, Arkansas — The theme song used on the Mary Marlin program is "Claire de Lune" by Claude Debussy. Miss Marie White, Houston, Texas — Following is the cast of "Stella Dallas": Stella Dallas '. Anne Elstner Laurel Vivian Smolen Dick Grosvenor. . . . Macdonald Carey Steven Dallas Arthur Hughes Madeline Carter Nancy Sheridan Jerry William Quinn Ed Munn Arthur Vinton Charles Martin Tom Tully Helen Dallas Julie Benell Miss Pauline Frey, Maspeth, New York — Bob Allen, the handsome vocalist with the Hal Kemp orchestra, was born in Allendale, Ohio, twenty-five years ago. He made his radio debut at the age of seventeen over a Cincinnati station. After working for Ben Bernie for a while, he joined the Kemp organization in November, 1933 and has been with them ever since. He's 5' 11" tall, weighs 155 lbs., is unmarried and we can't understand why the movies haven't discovered him. He's that good-looking! FAN CLUB SECTION All admirers of Enoch Light's orchestra, and particularly those living in the southern states can receive full information on starting a Light Brigade in their locality by writing to Albert Manning, 300 Gibbs Street, Mansfield, Louisiana. A new Kenny Baker Fan Club has been formed in Toronto, Canada. All Canadians wishing to join, are invited to write to Miss Muriel Berry, 196 St. Germain Avenue, Toronto, Canada. Mrs. Anne Anderson of 595 North 14th Street, DeKalb, Illinois, President of the newly formed Tex Atchison Loyalty Club is anxious to increase its membership. If you are an admirer of Tex — why not send a line to Mrs. Anderson? There is a very active Frances Langford Fan Club headed by Miss Roberta Aitken of 1438 E. 34th Street, Brooklyn, New York. She would like to double its present size and suggests that all Langford admirers write to her. And Mr. Ed Lally of 123 Gore Street, Perth, Ontario, Canada is supporting the other member of the family by putting on a vigorous membership drive for Jon Hall. RADIO AND TELEVISION MIRROR
