Chicago Dateline Brace Channel Chatter: One of the featured performers on Super Circus, Bobo, -the trained pup of Nicky the Clovm, be¬ came a father in a big way recently. He sired a litter of nine. The pups will be used in a clown skit soon. Super Circus, incidentally, celebrates its sixth birthday this Sun¬ day, Oct. 3. The famed three-ring fun show will mark the occasion with fit¬ ting hoopla. Janet Brace, the comely warbler on Tom Duggan’s new daytime show, al¬ most didn’t get the job. The girl original’” signed as vocalist bowed out in the face of imminent motherhood. Janet was then signed as her replace¬ ment. If the voice of Curley Bradley, gen¬ ial host of WNBQ’s Animal Caretime, sounds familiar to adults, it’s under¬ standable. Curley starred on radio in the old Tom Mix serials. Sam Cowling, the Breakfast Club fun¬ ster, returns next week after taking a long-delayed vacation in the Caro- linas. Just a-fishin’ and sleepin’, he reports. Another avid fisherman is sportscaster Norm Barry, who regularly plies his pastime at Rainbow Springs, Wis. Coincident with the return of Down You Go to Channel 9 soon, Dr. Bergen Evans’ latest literary effort will go on sale Oct. 31. The title, appropriate for Halloween, is “The Spoor of Spooks.” Penny Smith, the real-life wife of Jim Lounsbury, will soon resume her career as a vocal¬ ist by cutting some records soon. Before meeting Jim, she was a singing star at WHAS in Louis- Evans viHe. Dr. John W. Taylor, h^ewly appointed executive director of Channel 11, was the first to pioneer fully credited courses over TV.
