Let's take Bailey Axton. for ex-
ample. He's the new morning man
on WMAL, and q bit Of background
might come in handy. Bailey Is q
young man. q pleasant sort of per-
son, the kind who fits in nicely
among his colleagues. He was born
in the very small town of Oswego,
Kans., but after several months
moved over to Pittsburg, Kans.
which he claims as home. Axton
broke into radio in rather odd sort
of way. He went to Kansas City,
Mo-, to sing at convention. Ar
thur Church Of KMBC heard Of him
and suggested an addition. Bailey
sang, Church asked If he had any
music. Axton said he did, and
Church Immediately put him on the
air for half-hour program. That
is the way 1t worked back in 1926.
After some time in Kansas City,
Axton moved over to WLW in Gin
cinnati, later to New York and to
Boston. All this time Bailey sang,
bat in Boston he brancheI into
the writing and producing fields.
In 1943, Axton moved to Washing
ton. to WTOP as production man
ager, and then to WMAL in the
middle of July.
This morning program with
Bailey AXton is a nice show. The
music is on the quiet side with an
occasional song by Bailey. Bailey's
manner is stiA little stiff when
he reads copy, but time will take
care Of that. Che voice is good
with enough of the Midwest left
to make you feel at home. All in
all, it's a pleasing presentations.

While We are On this subject OF
morning men, an event occurred in
New York last week that must be re-
garded as a milestone. Arthur God
frey appeared in his first television
show, and we would have given most
anything to have seen it. 1t was a
nalf-hour program in which our
Arthur debated with Col. Stoop-
nagle the question, DO Women's S
Hats Make Them More Attractive to

right down Godfreys alley, and ac-
cording to reports Arthur turned
out to be one of the best performers
CHS Television has seen in many a
moon, and that sounds reasonable.

the postwar world with Arthur God
Trey on your television set in your

Hoover's statement that the Re-

power for the liquidation of Ameri-

And what would puzzle Euro

"Jim?" she called.
ayes, Nora" Jim reappeared on
the stairs, pale but rigidly con-
trolled. He had his coat on, and car
ried several unopened letters of as
sorted sizes.
"Jim! Is anything wrong?"
"Wrong?" he laughed. 81 never
saw such a suspicious womanl
What should be wrong?"
81 don't know. But you look so
pale"
Jim kissed her. "You ought to've
been a nurse! Well, got to be going.
Oh, by the way, here's the mail.
The usual junk. Bye, Patty! SMITH
See you SOON" Jim raced out.
After breakfast, Ellery said
something about strolling in the
woods behind the house and excused
himself.
A half hour later Pat Joined him.
She came hurrying through the un-
derbrush, looking back over her
shoulder as if someone were chas-
ing her.
81 thought I'd never get away
from Nora" Pat painted. She
dropped to stump. "Whoo!"
Ellery blew smoke thoughtfully.
"Pat, we've got to read that letter
Jim just received. 1t stirred him
tremendously. Somehow this morn
ing's letter ties in with the rest Of
this puzzle. Can you lure Nora out
of the house?"
"She's going TO High Village this
morning to do some shopping.
There's the station wagon!"
= Pat kicked "A twig. Then she
sprang off the stump. 81 feel awful
spying on her." she moaned. But
what else can we do?"
81 doubt if we'll find anything"
said Ellery as Pat let him into
Nora's house with her duplicate
key. "Jim locked the door when he
ran upstairs. He didn't want to be
caught doing :. whatever it was
he did,"
In Jim's study, Pat set her back
against the door. She looked i'll.

went directly to the fireplace. 1t

of ash.

Yes Ellery tucked the burnt

Eyes to both questions" And as
he helped Nora up the porch steps,
he wondered just how guilty he
really was.
Jim was full Of political talk, and
Nora she was wonderful. No
other word for it, thought Ellery.
Watching and listening, he could
detect no least tinkle of falsity. 1t
was a temptation TO dismiss the let
ter incident Of the previous eve
ming as fantasy.
Pat arrived, with Alberta and
eggs, in a rush.

Ellery saw the swift cloud darken
Nora's face. She pressed more cof-

Pat kept chattering. She wasn't
very good actress--couldn't look
Jim in the eye. But Nora was su-
perb. Yes, Pat had been right.
Nora had decided not TO think about
the letters or their horrible impli-
cation. And she was using the mi
nor crisis of Pat and Cart TO help
her not to think.
Nora left the dining room TO join
Alberta in the kitchen.
"That Nora" ehuckled Jim.
"She's-Say! What time is it? I'll
be late at the bank. NoraW he
shouted. Didn't the mail come

"Not yeti" Nora called from the
kitchen as Jim observed. "Ah!
There's Bailey now. 'Scuse!"
Jim hurried out 10 the foyer TO
answer the postman's ring. They
heard him open the front door and
his slow returning steps while he
was shutting through the mail.
Then they saw him staring at one
Of the several envelopes the post
man had just delivered. His face
was lverish. Suddenly he vaulted
upstairs. They heard his feet pound
