variety magazine, In a recent lesue,
?,vc8 some interesting fadts In the
lowdown on what a gold mine radio
' ma has turned out to many actors
'hose names you have npver seen,
a?d probably never will see, In lights.
That there are a number of such for.
tunate performers haa long been common
knowledge, but leave It to Variety
to ferret out precisely who's who and
how much moola he gets.
s
Hrirfly. Variety says, these players
make $50,000 or more a year each
from their acting chores in New York
railio studios: Arthur Allen, John
Hrown. Charlie Cantor, 1.68 Damon,
iviei Donald. Parker Fenpelly, David
liolhard. House Jameson, Bill Johnstorn.
Walter Klnsella, Alan Heed and
Karl Swenson. How many of these
nanu s ring a-bell In your mind? Most
people. perhaps, would recognize CharIj(,
cantor as a standby on Fred Als
an,| the "Duffy's" shows; Peter
Dona I I as emcee of "Cun You Top
Tlii> House Jameson us Henry Aldrifli'i
iat her; Bill Johnstone as "The
Shadow;" Alan Reed as, among other
(Tiaracters, Falstaff Oponshaw, the
| poet. But they aren't -"names" aud
ihcy don't have their own programs.
*
A number of women also are In this
high earning class. Variety says they
include Gertrude Berg, who also
write| and produces "The Goldbergs;"
Arlene Francis, Betty Garde, Anne
Seymour and Louise Wall. V
*
Among those listed as making from
to $40,000 annually in radio
we find the names of Jay Jostyn, who
H went from NVauwatosa to become the
I star of "Mr. District Attorney;" Raymond
Edward Johnson of Kenosha,
who also is currently starred in a
liroadway show, "The Patriots," and
I Milwaukee's Ethel Owen, who pops in
and out* of more network serials and
I dramatic shows than we have fingers
I and toes (and buttons)
The proposal of an international
I bank is designed to fill an unqueaI
tioned postwar need, and our Mr.
Morgenthau Is for it. Happily it was
I not thought of first by a lot of characI
ters named Ruml.
* * * *
If phony ration books, dropped by
the RAF, spread confusion In Berlin,
I what are we waiting for? By all
I means, dump questionnaires, and let
I chaos reign. 1
i
Did anyone every say he could take
I it or leave it alone, while he was
I leaving it alone?
H Easter-musings: I don't believe the i
chancel and sanctuary of Grace church <
ever offered a more beautiful picture. ]
H A"d the large .choir, the impressive i
communion service with the inspiring
I musical background?It was all very
bfcautiful?but the big thrill of the I
morning came when during the sing, i
mg of "America," my eyes eaw the J
I little chap, vested In black cassock i
and white cotta, standing right under
I the American fl^g, hia little mouth
I like a bog O, hla Wyes bright with Joy |
and happiness as he sang the Inspir- <
'ng words of "America.". I've seen t
I pictures of choir boys on front pages j
I of magazines?but thai time It was
I very real.. The singer was Shannon
Heyward, age 9. Going to Art 8lade'a <
I Court Inn dining room for dinner and i
wing amazed at the great number of
I aners on hand. Enjoyed a fine well I
PrePared and appetizing dinner. Meet'"g
some warriors from my home
I state of Wisconsin and spending the
afternoon visiting with them.

I South Carolina Legislature had
H ' ?nuuendable purpose in passing the
I Ii* ' ?r bill" In the closing
H 0,1 s t^le recent session. There Is
I ?!!' , ,)Ut that every able-bodied
<n f)",w'een Igyand 60 years of age
should be at work lu theae critical
times. llut the law off era thought
for some ljiisagtv lugs, for It paves the
way for possibilities of abuse on the
part of unscrupulous Individual* or
groups. From that Htundpolnt it waa
dangerous legislation.

BY THE SKIPPER |!
Remember Eddie Stankey, the pugnacious
I rifle Ider who used to Irk the
Columbia fans by his scrapping ability
when the Macon team invaded the
lair of the Reds two years ago? Remember
Stankey who was bought from
Macon by Milwaukee and proceeded
| to win top honors in the American assQciation
as ''player of the year."
Well, Eddie Ik now with the Chicago
Cubs, having been bought by the
Wrlgley gang from Milwaukee, A
week ago Sunday, in a game betareen
the Cubs and White Sox, Eddie gave
a convincing demonstration that he
la tops as a second baseman. He was
pivot man in four twin erasures (double
plays to you) and started a fifth
one. _
*
We saw 8tankey In action last September
when Milwaukee and Kansas
City were playing the league titles
series. And we saw Eddie mess up a
play that gave Kansas City the game
and the title. It was the only error
Eddie made in the whole series but
man?it sure came at a most critical
time.
? * s?- This
comment Is being written Friday,
April 23. and we'll adtftlt it is
somewhat early to secure any definite
Idea as to the merits of the respective
teams In the Camden aoftball loop.
We have seen the Mechanics, Army,
Kendalls and Merchants in action and
look to watch the Instructors and
Home Guard tonight. So f^r, the Army
seems to be about on a par with the
Kendalls but having greater potential
possibilities. The Army lads are In
fine physical condition and field well?
The Kendalls, with several new faces
In the lineup, have an alert gang,
quick to grasp scoring chances. The
Maintenance team will imprpve and
prove to be a tough customer for all
the rest of the clubs. Thp Merchants,
if they steady down, should make it
interesting for competing' clubs. We
hoar that the Instructors will offer a
powerhouse from the hitting standpoint
while the Homo Gutytfl unit is
still the "X" of the leaffffe. We'll
know more after tonight.
*
'Peter Cassella, who did such a fine
job of building up golfing interest in
this neck of the hills during the winter
months, writes us a fine letter
from the Sound View Golf club at
Great Neck, Long Island. I
We have been hoping that Peter and
his charming frau would come doV:n
soon to go Into a joint management
of the new nstructors club and the
pro shop at the golf club, but Peter
tells us "nothing doin'." Seems that
Peter promised the gang up at GreatNeck
that he would continue there
as pro this summer if they met with
certain demands. The club did and
now Peter feels he is obligated to
3tay there. j
*
We are hoping that Peter comes
back next winter. He Is a good in.!
itructor add organizer and that is
lust what the local club needed to
make It click,
Peter's return is not certain. Just
because Uncle Sam has been casting
jyes on him and may want him to
itrut his sharp shooting ability in the
irmed service.
*
The sporting world and all AmerlJ
:an citizens rejoice that Tommy Harmon,
famed Michigan grid atar, Is safe,
after a crash landing in the war
theater. Tommy was heard over the
air Saturday night from an undisclosed
base where,he is recuperating from
his experience.
* *
' Harmon was one of the greatest
football players of all time and it was
because of his great skill unci ability
that he made the Michigan University
team the top grid machine of the nation
back a few years ago.
By the way, bang tail gentry will
be tuned in on the derby tomorrow.
This is always the top race classic of
the nation and despite war restrictions
and the lack of gargle water this
year's event will have plenty of
glamour.
