DAYTIME DIARY All programs listed are heard Monday through Friday; consult your local paper for time and station. AUNT JENNY Even a town as small as Littleton has its share of femmes fatales, but pretty Crystal was bitterly resentful of the unjustified reputation her looks had given her as she fought to be accepted as the sweet, simple girl she really was. Crystal's story was one of those recently told by Aunt Jei«ny in her series about Littleton life, which reflects life in every small American town today. CBS Radio. BACKSTAGE WIFE Actor Larry Noble, unaware of the depths to which Elise Shephard will stoop to break up his marriage, is devoting all his time to her under the influence of the lie she told him about her having only a few months to live. Mary, ignorant of the lie which Elise made Larry swear to keep secret, is so bitterly hurt that she falls easy prey to gambler Victor Stratton, who has plans of his own. NBC Radio. THE BRIGHTER DAY Bert Ralston shows every sign of wishing to become a part of New Hope's quiet, simple community, but there are at least three people he has not convinced. One is Reverend Dennis, who knows people too well to be taken in by Bert's smoothness. Another is Sandra Talbot, who has good reason to know Bert's true character. The third is young Babby Dennis, who doesn't like shaking hands with the stranger in town. CBS-TV and CBS Radio. CONCERNING MISS MARLOWE Beautiful Maggie Marlowe has worked long and hard for her acting success, and is ready to put it aside for a quieter, less demanding life, when a sudden need for money sends her back to Broadway.

Will this be another will-o'-the-wisp? NBC-TV FIRST LOVE A new marriage is a difficult thing at best, but when a girl is married to a man with a positive talent for rubbing some people the wrong way, the problem is certainly intensified.

Will Laurie's deep love help her achieve the wisdom she knows she will need to guard their happiness? NBC-TV GOLDEN WINDOWS Has Julie thrown her hat over the windmill, as the gossips of Half-Gale claim? Would she have been better off going through with her marriage to the son of one of the town's important families?

Meanwhile, Dick's ex-wife also courts trouble as she tries to forget her marriage in a round of gaiety. CBS-TV and CBS Radio.
