S. Navy tradition and honor, first appeared in a cartoon strip in May, 1934, and went on the air for the first time in March, 1936. Today, "Don Winslow" is a cartoon strip-radio program character reaching the eyes of newspaper-reading youngsters in more than 200 American cities, the ears of countless other youngsters Monday through Friday over NBC. Creator of Winslow is Lieutenant-Com· mander Frank V. Martinek of the U. S.

Young people who follow Hero Don Winslow on the air have been given a liberal lesson in preparedness for peace through "Don Win. slow's Squadron of Peace," an organization pledged to circumvent the plots of international war-makers like "The Scorpion," Don's traditional enemy and villain of both cartoon strip and radio program. More than 10,000 "Peace Ships"-groups of boys and girls who are affiliated with the "Squadron of Peace"-are in existence today. Distinguished for its timeliness, the Don Winslow radio program has on several occasions "beat the news," utilizing as dramatic material various international crises weeks before actual incidents ap. peared on the front pages of the world's newspapers. Accuracy is another factor upon which Don Winslow's creator places great emphasis. Technical authenticity of both cartoon strip and radio program is maintained by constant research and careful attention to current developments. There is no exact parallel of dramatic action between Don Winslow of the newspapers and his radio counterpart. Plots for the radio drama, taken from the cartoon strip, are sometimes given slightly different treatment, and material may be taken from current strips. from those of four years ago, or even from strips not to be published for a month or more!
