Ephemeral Is the name for most radio nroa6caSts. Good, bad or ln- defferent they play their hour, or half hour, to d huEe or a snall aai. dlence. and after that, except in special cases they arc swept in Go the archives of oblivion. Co be re- called perhaps on occasion hy some one for whom the memory stlll lln- gers, though the tune is dead. tt is true. of course. that recordings are made Of many programs, and these can be played as circumstances may demand. But for the most part. un@ like books. and movies and plays. a broadcast, once it has been on the air is as dead as the snows of yeSteryeAr.
 An this popped Into my mind last Sunday afternoon, when 1 strolled from a movie house in New York where I and the best gal had just seen "Going My Way" as superb a picture as has ever been my good fortune to see. Tt was my first viewing of the picture. The best gal had seen it before. Both she and I are ready 10 see it again. It Is that good. Bing Crosby Is starred in it. and Rise Stevens. but the man who runs away with the picture, the man who is the picture Is an Irish. man named Barry Fitzgerald. one time member Of the famous Abbey Theatre players. and a grand char acter actor. If he doesn't win the Oscar for his performance in "0o- ing My Way" oscar isn't even worth his weight as common clay.
 
 Good movies. like good plays. and good books will live for ever. even though a movie is handicapped seen years later, by the costumes of the women performers: but even that did not detract from the best gals enjoyment, and my own. at a re-showing of two old pictures which we both viewed only recently. One was Lost Horizon" the other ''Tt Happened One Night" For each of us it was our third trip to see Lost Horizan." and our fourth to ''It FEappanede one Night" Tn all the months I have been in Water bury I have not entered a movie theatre. because dislike going to movies by myself. But I'm going this week to see Going My Way" and If any of the famous films of the past should show ever here. you can be sure I'll be on hand. just as of- ten I slip into the Bronson Library to reread portions of favorite pas- saees in books or plays. or . loved. half-forgotten poem.
 Did you ever see a comic strip walking2 You've heard one talking. if you've listened to the WATR and Blue Networks Terry and The Pirates. And you'd hear them walk ing, too. if you managed to horn in on one Of the rehearsals staged by these noisy perambulators Of the air.
