Solution of saturday's Puzzle

For scenery Alaska has the whole world beat, Bill Hay speaking :" Bill is announcer for Amos n Andy and his voice, familiar to radio audiences all over the coun- try as well as Canada to Mexico sounds just the same when he talks to one personally as it does through the mikes.
 He and Mrs Bill are passeng- CTS on the Canadian Pacific liner Princess Louie and they are do ing" the British Columbia Alas ka tour with as much pleasure as Andrew H. Brown got out of the taXicab business or Amos does from a telephone call from Ruby.
 MT and Mrs. Hay were met here by H. G. Watson, Secretary to Gov. Parks, and called on the Governor at his home. Later they met Con- missioner Henry OMalley who in vited them to accompany him to Sitka. Their plans, however. were so arranged that they could not change them on such short mo- tice and they expressed regret that they were unable to stop off here for the excursion.
 They are both pioneer radio entertainers. MT. Hay is Scotch, was born and went to school in Scotland. He graduated from piano salesman to radioland and is now manager of station WMAQ in Chicago He is a devotee of golf, as becomes one of his na- tiona1ity, and his strongest con- plaint is that his work won't per init him to get out on the links as often as he would like.
