 Besides this, the networks were paid for the use of their talent. Estimates of this total run as high as $2,O0O,O0O, but more conservative place the figures of $1,5OO,OOO, which is still quite a biL of change. Then there are several hun-

What promises to be one of the airs best bets of the week in light entertainment makes it's debut at 10 tonight over WABC. It's the new Caravan, with Casa Loma still furnishing grand music but with two new features in Stoop- nagle and Budd and Connie Bos- well.
 The Colonel and Budd will pre- sent more of their senseless com edy, while Connie will supplant Irene Taylor as the femme voca- list in the program. Casa Loma will still offer the warbling of Kenny Sargent and the hot-chaing of Pee Wee Hunt,
 Comics numbers for tonight are the up-and-coming Tn other words We're Through and last years hit, Farewell to Arms" Casa Loma will play Gene Gifford's arrange ments of Lets Fall in Love-, Coffee in the Morning" and the perennial "Dardanella."
 One of the best of the Sum
 day night programs now cur-
 rent is the Seven Star Revue,
 which has variety enough to
 please almost every listener.
 One of its highlights is the
 glorious singing of NinO Mar
 tini, who has reversed the
 usual process by going from
 radiO to opera. The program
 continuity is handled nicely
 and the contrast Is never too
 bold.

ton q, what should one DO In the

como Or try to stop bleeding, disinfect

The family physician, TO whom the
Eagle Scout submits the question,
turns It over 70 me. but submits along
with It tho conclusions reached BY the
Eagle Scout and himself q 70 the
proper first aid procedure n that and
many similar cases. THIS u what they
conclude:
First aid should b limited to-
/. Call Q doctor.
2. Apply compression 70 stop bleed.
