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

IT isn't because the Bette DavisHarmon Nelson story is unusual that it is so sad. It is because it is commonplace, something that happens to so many bewildered men and women. Every day dozens of couples go to the divorce courts, not because that is what they want to do but because they can't endure the incessant irritation which some outside influence has introduced into their lives. And often, after these couples separate, they realize their arguments had no valid basis and they wish something might happen to bring them together again. They are satisfied that if they could meet, before too much time and too many experiences came between them, they would have a chance to reclaim their married liv In most cases, however, nothing ever does bring separated couples to any meeting. Bette and Ham were lucky. Sometimes Fate is disguised as a slip of a girl with freckles spattered on her nose, expectancy lighting her eyes, and nervousness turning her hands into little lumps of ice ... a slip of a girl like Pamela Caveness the night she made her debut on the Raymond Paige broadcast on CBS. That was a great night for Pam. And everyone in the broadcasting studios — the audience, the orchestra and the technical staff — knew it. So when her voice lifted with the first phrase of her song, there were many, aware of the drama of the moment, who had a catch in their throats. But very few in the studio were mindful of a far greater drama that took place that evening. Because the dark young man and the crisply golden girl with whom this drama was concerned, stood quietly on the sidelines and gave no sign that be RADIO AND TELEVISION MIRBOB
