ELDERLY WIFE
DENIESAFFAIR

LOS ANGELES, May % Q.N.S0,
A chuckling, humorous denial that
her interest in 21-year-old youth
was anything but friendly" was
recorded in court here today by
Mrs. Anna Crookshank, 10, as her
contested divorce suit continued
against her 85-year-old husband.
The charges she made love" to
the youth, Thaddeus Pickens,
were made by the husband, David
C. Crookshank, wealthy citrus
grower.
The husband sued for divorce
and settlement of a 100000
estate.
His allegations were denied by
Mrs. Crookshank. She testified:
II went to. see 'ThaddeuS
when he was sick, and 1
bought a few things for him,
but that was all"
Her husbands attorney asked:
Didn't you careSS and kiss
him in the back seat of the car
which your chauffeur was driv-
ing, and didn't you lock the
servants out of a room one time
when you were entertaining
him?"
81 did not"
Mrs. Crookshank spoke firmly
with an infectious chuckle which
forced the bailiff to call for order
in the crowded courtroom.

Crosby's Music Hall, NBC-WEAF
(WLW) { at tonight. :. Also at 9,
CHS (WFBM), Horace Heidi will
air his last preview of his local
stage appearance, which Is to be-
gin Friday.
Babe Ruth was known as a
ball players ball player" that is,
he was an athlete greatly admired
by his colleagues. Katharine Cor
nell, legitimate theater actress,
often has been requested to give
professional matinees to please
members of the acting profession
who were unable to attend regu-
lar performances. To round out
the trilogy, Benny Goodman is
recognized as musicians must
clan. He is leading in two divi-
sions, the best swing band and the
favorite band of all, in a contest
being conducted by a music maya
zine. Only professional musicians
may cast ballots in the contest.
The dismal argument that it is
only a matter of time until the
radio puts an end to all good
reading, is nonsense, says the
Saturday Review of Literature.
THE radio may do great deal
to restore good reading, which
suffers more from diffusion than
from lack of material. What the
radio is actually doing is to give
back to the human voice the tell
ing of stories and the narrating
of events" the Review states.
This is where storytelling,
pure and simple, belongs. 1t was
always a face-to-face or mouth
to-ear affair, until writing and
afterward printing interfered. The
best story telling was, and is, oral.
The best tales are told tales, de-
signed for an immediate effect,
where the voice readily does what
written style accomplishes with
such difficulty, and is so sure to
be ineffective unless a master
hand molds the diction.
In all probability the radio will
eventually take over much, though
by no means all. !. Many West
ems, many boy-and-girl stories,
many detective stories, most
sermons on economies and politics,
most books that comment on
current events, most popular
science, all simple lyric and mar
rative poetry, will find a happy
home on the radio.
What would be left would be
real books. The radio can talk
about them, but not give them.
They must be written-and read"

nUSOLINA GIANNINI, ia
- vorite of Indianapolis au-
diences as we'll as new Metro
politan Opera soprano, has
recovered from her recent in
disposition and is to be heard
as guest soloist with the Pitts
burgh Symphony Orchestra at
7 tonight. "Vissi d'Arte," from
Puccini's La Tosca"; "Estrel-
lita,' by Ponce; Songs My
Mother Taught Me-" by Dvor-
ak, and Annie Laurie" will
comprise her solos.
The orchestra, under Antonio
Modarelli, is listed for per-
formances of the famous
Wedding March" from Men
delssohn's Midsummer Nights
Dream Music; Strauss Blue
Danube" waltzes, and the
"Bolero" of Maurice Ravel.
Doubtless we shall have only a
taste" of the last two num-
bers, since the entire broadcast
is confined to a half hour and
the "Bolero," in it's uncut YER
sion, is approximately Is min
utes long. The program is
broadcast on the NBC Blue
network (WIRE).
Efrem Zimbalist, who at the
age of nine was first violinist
in the Petrograd Opera orches-

guest artists on the Bling Cros-

ner, you better get out and go
from door to door with petition,
Honeyboy, cause if we can't SHOW
dat radio man 1000 names, station
Til ky is liable to lose it's Ii
cenSe."
Ten thousand listeners must
have thought the real program
was about to be discontinued, for
they promptly wrote, wired or
called to protest. One message
which every one in town had
signed, came from Paris, Ontario,
and explained that at least five
million persons in Canada wanted
Honeyboy and Sassafras to stay
on the air.
We can't help but wonder If
the boys didn't have something up
their sleeve when they made sly
mention of leaving the air. 49,

CBS will lose two important
~ programs to NBC soon. Ed
Wynn, dissatisfied with his show
ing on his new Thursday night
series, CHS (WFBM) at $3.50, will
move to NBC-WEAF to fill the
time now taken by the Fire Chief
program. After Tuesday, this
broadcast is to leave the air for
the summer 1t is rumored that
Ed is negotiating with his old
straight man, Graham McNamee,
to get him to rejoin him. How
ever, Grahann's present contract,
unless an adjustment is. made,
may prevent a reunion.
The other CHS program to move
to NBC is Lavender and Old Lace,
now a Tuesday night offering,
which is to open Wednesday on
NBC-WJz.

us in reading the. Bible through in
year and will be glad to give one
to those who will attempt to do this

the year is to get all members to
take tenth of their income, and
give to the Lords work.
