HARRY NJ YERS
FIRST AID
TOCHAPLIN

One of the hilarious high spots
in City Lights" Charlie Chap
Inns latest United Artists produc-
tion now playing at the Columbia
Theater, is based on the CO
medians belief that a man has
two identities-one when he is
sober and the other when he is
intoxicated. He has given conf
cal expression to this idea by in
Producing as one of the char
acters an occasionally inebriated
millionaire.
The part is played by Harry
Myers, of "A Connecticut Yankee
fame, and whether in his cups
or not, is a perfect foil for the
Chaplin brand of humor.
When he has been "indulging"
he treats Charlie as good fel,
low, a boon companion, tramp
though the funny man IS, but
when he is sober, he can't see
Charlie at all, doesn't know him,
and finally to Charles bewilder-
ment, orders his lackeys to
throw that bum out"

About a week ago you said
Amos n Andy we're below par
and predicted they would soon
get better. What do you think Of
them now?" postcards Lewis Mac
Intyre from the Hotel Ambassa-
dor.
The answer is, of course, they
are still away below par. 1t
strikes me that the Correll ana
Gosden effort to give Amos all
of the brains in this two-man
character team is badly overdone.
Andy has degenerated into such
complete numskull most Of his
appeal has departed.
So I say to A and A get Andy
to work again and soon. Stop this
messin' around with bazaar tick
cts and forget all about that life
story. After going through breach.
of-promiSe litigation Andy ought
to have learned something about
romance. How about trying him
out again with the tender Senti-
ment.
These are not strictly the edi-
tors opinions. They incorporate
the viewpoint of the craftsman
printer, Homer Dooley, who boasts
he has not missed an A and A
7 o'clock in over two years. But
he doesn't promise to continue
unless there is marked improve
ment.
Gentleman Jim" Corbett, one
time world champion heavyweight
boxer, will lead Broadway stage
stars before the microphone in a
new semi-weekly series, the Bond
Sunshine Program, over an N.B.C.
network, beginning Tuesday,
April IA.
Each Tuesday and Thursday
evening thereafter, at 6 p. M, Cor
bett will interview some stage
celebrity. Henry Hull, star of the
current play, Grand Hotel" will
appear on the initial program.
Corbett, as master of ceremonies,
will put actors and actresses on
the witness stand and grill them
in a friendly cross-examination.
He will induce his witnesses to re-
view their careers, recalling anus
ing anecdotes behind the bright
lights.
After an, absence of several
weeks, DR.. Julius Klein, Assistant
Secretary of Commerce will return
to the air Sunday night in a new
series of addresses on business,
economic and Government affairs,
to be carried from 7 to 7:15 p. m,
over the Columbia Broadcasting
System.
During the respite, DR.. Klein's
office and Columbia studios have
been receiving many letters want
ing the popular Assistant Secre-
tary to resume his talks. Radio
listeners from all over the coun-
try, from high business eXecu-
tiveS down to youngsters in
schools, have been writing in.
One letter was written on a
flour sack and came from some
small town general storekeeper
asking why DR.. Klein's talks on
retail efficiency had been discon-
tinued. DR.. Klein receives the
largest volume of radio fan mail
of any Government official who

Everything she wrote was
true as we all know. Gee, why
do some fans pick on the Goose
II he fails to hit at times? /
believe some of the fans want
to be funny but If they really

they're 'nertz.'
