1 lHlS YVES 10 nave peeu Lne Gay
when we set forth the belief that
'Duffys Tavern" is one OF the live-
lier half-hour entertainments radio
is offering right now. But early in
last Wednesdays performance 1t be-
lcame obvious that George Raft was
to be the guest star that night. To
be sure, there was time before he
arrived for Finnegan to deliver one
of the weeks funniest lines, when
he looked admiringly at a picture
of Marie Macdonald and said:
aWhew! No wonder they call her
Marie Macdonald Mr.. Raft was
mot long in arrivings however. and
within a very few minutes Archie
had lost temporarily an admirer
and Frank Sinatra had gained a
listener. Raft has his own form of
yersatility--he can be as dull bore
on the radio as he can on the
screen.
Sinatra. whatever the elders may
say of him or of his idolators, is a
pleasant singer. There are faults
to be found with his show, OF course.
According to word in the trade pa
Ipers, Sinatra's sponsors have been
showing some concern over the low
rating the half hour has in the
Hooper standings. They are aware
that there is something not Just
right about the program perhaps
that frankie is alternating some Of
his fans by trying to adopt the easy,
off-hand manner In his announce
ments that was pioneered by that
elderly upstart rival OF his, Bing
Crosby. It is quite possible. Sinatra
is no Crosby.
II Sinatra is to emerge from our
loud-speakers with tray of ciga-
rettes for sale, however, there Is an
other matter which the sponsors
might give some attention, il they
wish to sell their cigarettes to any
one out of bobby sox. Many of the
complaints directed at FRANKIE
might better be directed at the mad
young types who Squeal in ecstatic
anguish at his every glissando. 1t is
his studio audience that alienates
from Sinatra his potential radio au-
dience.
Frankie has, as any one knows, an
annoying habit of sounding on oc-
casion as II he just wasn't going to
have the strength to make 1t over
the next bar. We would gladly put
up with this If we knew that never
again would we hear the wild animal
squeals of the "O-o-o-o-h Fran
k-e-e-e" set.
The week was not without its re-
warding moments. There was, for
instance, the appearance of Fred
Allen on the Theater Guild of the
Air production of ''The Man Who
Came to Dinner" last Sunday night.
Far from type-cast, Mr.. Allen still
was lot funnier than some others
have been in the same role, though
you could hardly get a radio vice
president to admit that. Mr.. Allen
has mad on at radio right now.
For one thing he is tired and prob
ably wouldn't care If radio asked
him to please go somewhere else
and crack his jokes. Then again, he
is considerably irked with the
shackles Of radio censorship. The
radio vice presidents feel that Mr..
Allen uses the word ''hucksters"
much too loosely in a medium
which owes its gold to radio adj
vertisers. The barbs which Mr..
Allen tossed at radio during 'The
Man Who Came to Dinner" were
tossed with gleeful malice.

BARTLETT URGES FUNDS FOR VISA
 SHIP OPERATION

WASHINGTON, June 6. - Dele gate Bartlett of Alaska has urged the Senate Appropriations Com inittee to continue operation of the War Shipping Administration until a solution has been found for AL aska's shipping problems.
 He told the Committee II the VISA ended it's operations this year f would create situation cha otic and injurious both to the na- ton and the territory"
 Bartlett said owners of the ship ping lines now operated by the VISA were unwilling to resume pri- vate operations unless they received substantial rate increases. These would be 50 great as to do untold economic harm to Alaska, to bring an abrupt end to all hopes for de- velopment of the territory and to increase the price of living there fso much it is likely the population would decrease rather than irl- crease" he said.
