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

People tell me it's called "On the Trail." V. W., Brooklyn, N. Y. People are absolutely correct. The Philip Morris theme music is "On the Trail" from Ferde Crofe's "Grand Canyon Suite." Ferde Grofe is the man who. in addition to being a composer, arranged George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue." Papa David Dear Editor: So many people I know would appreciate seeing a picture and some information about the man who portrays Papa David on the daytime serial, Life Can Be Beautiful. Could you please print something about him in your magazine? L. A. LaB., St. Joseph, Mo. Ralph Locke, better known to radio fans as Papa David Solomon in Life Can Be Beautiful, has a long career of acting on the legitimate stage behind him. From his mother's best friend, Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske (a famous actress), he early learned the fascination of the world of make-believe. During his years of schooling in America and abroad, cultivating the art of mimicry was Ralph's pastime. His theatrical debut was with Mrs. Fiske in "Mary of Magdala," and later in "Nellie of New Orleans." What followed was a series of hits with such luminaries as Maude Adams, Henry Miller, Otis Skinner, Fay Bainter, George M. Cohan, and in Shubert musicals. In 1935, he was invited to do a guest performance on a radio program. Shortly after that appearance, the casting director for Life Can Be Beautiful hired Ralph for the part of Papa David.
