On top of that, her pet cocker spaniel, Bambi, gave birth to five puppies. The pen- guins are due to arrive any day now, and Mrs. North is sleuthing around 10: someone with a home for them.

Those Of you who tuned in sun- day to listen Co the premiere of Miss Hattie starring Ethel Barry more over WATR, and the Blue, have doubtiess little Idea that the stages first lady was affected with norvouBnegs which disappeared co the broadcast progressed. I wasn't one of the studio audience, but Jack Carver, UP correspondent was, and what he relates in his newB-syndi- cated article pass on to you:
 Years of experience arc no guaf- antee against tension for . perfor. nier starting Q new project, For all her background Ethel Barrymore was victim of this professional aiiment yesterday afternoon when she made her debut % . radio regular.
 Not that it affected her perfor- nance in the Blue Networks Lighted Windows" program, now retitled Miss Hattie" in honor Of the character Miss Barrymore plays. This tension, not to be confused with stage fright, is strictly Q just- before -the. battle condition that dis. appears once the proceedings get under way.
 Miss Barrymore faced her first radio studio audience i1 the former Vanderbilt theater. The decorators moved out just 90 minutes before the fans moved in and the place was well perfumed with paint. Ten minutes before the show started the actress walked onto the stage, Rets ting A terrific hand, and took her seat At . square table down center Sic wore c black dress and 6 hand. some hat with green feathers ano looked every bit like Q member or the American theater's Royal Faffl- ily,"
 The star looked as though she felt that l0.minute walt was an enternity. Her glasses were on and of half q dozen times. Occasionally she would steal q look over one shoulder at the control booth up in the balcony, There was business with the hands and script. Finally the show started but the moment of easy had not yet arrived for Miss Barrymore because 1t was some i've minutes before she took Q hand, Then she spoke her first words Tn the familiar throaty voice and the tension was over.
 Miss Barrymore'S radio work here: tofore has consisted Of few special appearances. Now she Is committed to c long series, every Sunday afternoon at 3;30. She has the role of an aunt who takes a friendly hand in Btraigiitening out peoples affairs, hardly q novel type Of character in iteself but you can count on Miss Barrymore making Miss Hattie a very special person.
 Incidentally, she b now hard at work on rehearsals Of her new play, "IGmbezzled Heayen," for the The. ater Guild,
