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 Christmas morning, Jack, his wife Carol, and a newspaperman went to call on a poor family selected by a San Diego newspaper. They were bearing gifts — a large, delectable turkey, and a basketful of Christmas goodies. The basket had been provided by a Good Will club; the turkey by the newspaper. The Baileys would happily have contributed both turkey and basket, but the Baileys just couldn't afford to. All his life. Jack has been playing Santa Claus, whenever he could. But, that particular year, he was earning $15.50 a week, as junior announcer on station KGB in San Diego. That Christmas day, he was down to his last two dollars. Afterwards, the newspaperman wished Jack and Carol a merry Christmas, and left to join his own family. And Jack said to Carol, with seeming lightness of heart, "Do Queen For A Day is seen over NBC-TV, M-F, at 4 P.M. — and heard over Mutual, M-F, at 11 :3D A.M. — both EST, under multiple sponsorship. 26
