Shadow of a Woman" Ginny
was cheering because Frank
Gallagher, ex-army singer whom
she introduced recently on the
air in her "Give a Discharged
Serviceman a Job" campaign,
now has a radio show of his
own. Every returned vet she's
introduced has hit the profess
Sional jackpot.
Holiday and Co." which re-
places 1T Pays to Be Ignorant"
on the air, is true to life. The
story of ex-vaudevillians who
played on bills with Jack Benny,
Fred Allen, ETC., its main char
acters, Tim and Shirley Holiday,
are played by Ray Maher and
Edith Evans, who know that
background perfectly. 1t looks
like one of the most promising
of the years new radio shows.
Loretta Young's stand-in in
her new picture, "The Stranger"
is Virginia Griffith, an old
friend. The girls went to grade
school together; now Virginia
works when Loretta does, and
falls heir to good many of Lor-
etta's picture costumes.

ence Days stories Of his family,
will be seen on the stage of the
Town Hall Theatre for a three

Thursday, April II.
Now in the seventh year of
its footlight existance, the stage
saga of the carrot-topped Days
has transcribed the ordinary
Limitations of the stage to be-

unparalleled in our national his

or Hottentot must now be ia

hold tyrant, Father Day, and his
exquisite wife, Winnie, whose
feminine wiles outwit her spouse
at every turn.
Perhaps a thousands plays
have opened-and closed-since
the auspicious Fall evening back
in 1889 LIFE WITH FATHER"
made its debut at Broadway's
Empire Theatre, but the Oscar
Serlin production spins merrily
on toward the decade mark, sur
viving even its designation as
classic" as 1t has been univer-

There are so many heart
warming moments in Life With
Father" so much that evokes
explosive laughter, that it would
be difficult to analyze the ever
durable appeal of this perennial
favorite. It may be that the
great legion of Life With

whom have seen the play a half
dozen times, see something of
their own families, something of
their own joys, trial and tribu-

The climax Of Roberts new
love story, in which he is neck
deep in intrigue with 18th CEN
ury Spanish royalty, comes
when he is forced to hide four
beautiful ladies of the court (and
their husbands) in various hooks
of his palace apartment. This
without the slightest sleight of
hand.

rehearse the scene, the latter de-

II don't have to rehearse this, /"
says the great lover. "This is
my Knickerbocker Hotel rou-

1t is Hope, all right.
Bob is entirely unabashed
about playing role first made
famous by the late Rudolph
Valentino, matinee idol of the
, tWenties. He isn't afraid of COM
parison to the leading lover of
twenty years ago.
What did Valentino have that
haven't got besides a profile?"
Bob demands.
Comparison To Old Days
Making love is a tougher
racket today Hope insists.
'In the twenties, it was
Moonlight and Roses, on muted
strings" he says. To-day, you've
got to compete with Pass the
Biscuits, Mirandy.' The lover of
yesterday may have cut a hand
some figure. But did he ever
cut a rug"
AS for screen romancing of
yesterday and today, Hope also
claims the going is more rugged
now.
In those days, deep breathing
did it," says Bob. "You could
always tell when boy met girl,
because the hero's chest would
heave all over the screen. A
leading man with asthma could
name his own price.
1T was all pantomime, and
they did mean pant"
Hope adjusts his wig, squares
his square cut, and prepares to
rehearSe.
To-day, we underact every
thing" he grins, as he climbs
under a bed and takes his start
ing position for the shot"

4AAAAAZAANA
 The old fogies would like you dear gullible folks to believe that the ideas promoted in this column concerning the cri (kree)-that is the Common Respiratory Infections -or some of my teachings at any rate, are radical.
 This is still 8 tolerably free country and you may believe wha1 you hke-so far as respiratory in fections are concerned it is a ques- tion of opinion and not of scientific fact.
 An authoritative textbook on Pre-. ventive Medicine, by Mark F. Boyd MD, Ms, C.PH. sixth edition (194O gives what is probably a fail consensus of present medical anc public health opinion upon thi. question, and I quote as much as can from it here:
 Cold or COryza
 An acute infection of the mu- cosa (lining menlbrane) of the upper respiratory passage is commonly known as a cold :. Although occurring throughout the year, epidemics are more frequent in the colder seasons. These are probably facilitated not only by the more intimate contacts arising from close in- door life during this period, but also by the irritation of the na- sopharynx (nose and throat pas sages) resulting from the deflci- ency of moisture in the air of artifcally heated houses.
 For years they (colds) have been ascribed to exposure to inele- ment weather, drafts, wet feet etc. Studies conducted by Smile indicate that isolated corn1nuni- ties, under all conditions of climate, remain free from colds until contact is established with the outside world, which cir cumstance is usually followed by an epidemic, thus indicating that the cold is is an infectious dis ease. It would appear, however, that the sufferer is infectious only for the first three days of the attack. ..
 Popular support for public measures directed toward their control cannot be secured for some time to come. Until then the well-informed person will avoid as far as possible contact with those suffering from colds, and seek to provide adequate humidity in artifcially heated rooms.
 I Doc Brady), for once, fint little fault with what this auth ority says-but there's just on' thing I'm bound to snicker at, ant that is the statement that "cold have been ascribed to exposure t' inclement weather, drafts, wet fee etc." Is Dr. Boyd writing a treatis on preventive medicine or a histor, of folk lore? Does Dr. Boyd him self take any stock at all in tn quaint notion he drags in so fur lively? If he does, why doesn't h. screw up his moral courage and sa, what he thinks about it? He is tn author, the authority, isn't he?
 From the sudden shift to tn non-committal of gossip voice whel this author mentions "inclemen weather, drafts and wet feet"

Mrs. Ansin reasoned wisely on today's hand. She refused to win the first or second diamond trick, but won the third round and then knocked out the ace of hearts.
 South could not return 8 dia- mond and led back 8 spade, which Mrs. Ansin won with the jack. She knocked out the ace of clubs and thus made her contract.
 Some players would make the mistake of winning the first dia- mond, being sure of two diamond tricks. But Mrs. Ansip reasoned that South had to hold the two missing aces to justify his spade bid. When North refused to open spade and led a diamond, 8 five- card diamond suit in his hand was probably indicated.
 If Mrs. Ansin had won the first diamond North could have defeated the contract simply by staying off the second diamond and winning the third.
