NOD FROM s.THE NATION"

NOD FROM 1.-THE NATION"
 'aThe Nation" magazine thinks Raymond Gram Swing, WATERS au- thoritative news commentator, per- haps should be given partial credit for the overthrow of the pro-Axis Arias government of Panama. Arias, youu recall, quietly left Panama for Cuba the morning of October '7 on the heels of his cabinets un- friendly action towards the United States in prohibiting the arming of ships under Panama registry. With the presidency left vacant, some of the government officials got busy and named Ricardo Adolpho de Ia Guartiia to the ofiice. German prop- agandiStS at once charged Wash ington with engineering the over throw of Arias, but the State De- partment was genuinely taken by surprise. Perhaps some credit" " says "The Nation, ? ''should be given to Raymond Gram Swing, who on the evening of october 2 broadcast a remarkable exposure of the pro- Axis tendencies of the ex-presi- dent" Incidentally, followers of Swings broadcast via WATR are advised that he will not be on the air tonight because of the fight broadcast ct 10 o'clock.

OBSERVATIONS

For once, at least, a name band has lived up to the ballyhoo of its publicity agents. The Rustic Cabin, where Teddy Powell has been playing, was the victim recently of a totally destructive fire. Powell's aggregation has been called "The Hottest Band of 41". Let's hope Mary Martin succeeds Connie Bos- well on the Bing Crosby show. Her versatility should fit in well with the Crosby fornat. Also reported under consideration for the soon- to-be-vacated spot is Helen O'Con- nell, chirper with Jimmy Dorsey. |. Sunday nights Charlie Mccarthy show will sport no less. than three comedy teams. Dialers will hear Fibber Melee and Molly, Abbott and Costello, as well as Bergen and Mccarthy. Three pairs of aces.

On Tuesday at 2 .. nl., a woman from Jersey called Law renee, saying she had missed the Navy Day Address that evening and what time would Jerry play it on records? When informed that it would be presented at A:OS a. 1il., the caller replied that she would be asleep then. She wOn- dered if Jerry would mind giving her Q call just before he put 1t on.
