ABOUT YOUR STARS AT WORK AND PLAY

BIG names can cause you a lot of trouble, as Mary Pickford and Louella Parsons have been discovering recently. Four first- string radio shows using moving-picture guest stars originate in Hollywood, and naturally the competition for famous headliners is strong. Mary wanted them for her own program, Parties at Pickfair, and Louella wanted them for Hollywood Hotel. Both Mary and Louella are intimate friends of most of the Hollywood great, who for years had been appearing on Hollywood Hotel out of friendship for the columnist, without being paid. Mary, however, pays her guests-and that's what started all the trouble. Louella is said to have noti- fied all motion picture studios that if Wide 11'orld their stars appeared on Mary's program she wouldn't mention their pictures At last he was hired for a New York Wednesday stanza of the Hit Parade, with in her newspaper column . . .

BENNY KREIGER is one of the two musicians, both sax players, still admired by Rudy Vallee, who also toots a saxophone. Recently, Benny Kreiger organized his own band and sold it to a sponsor. Benny now leads his orchestra on the Pick and Pat program heard on CBS. For his initial broadcast on this spot, Rudy appeared as guest artist to send Benny off to a fine start. However, Krei- ger still plays a sax in Rudy's band on the Fleischmann Flour at NBC each Thurs- day eve. * * *

RUDY'S new mag sponsorship will be to correct his "mis- statements" in the press and offer the "real" story. He is weary, it appears, of letting columnists have the last word.

He's full of tricks like that. Speaking of song pluggers, here's Jack Denny's favorite joke. The plugger gives Jack an orchestration of a new number and Denny says he will play it. This takes place in the hotel where Denny is playing with his band. The plugger takes a seat at a table with his guests. Comes time for the number and the plugger is all agog.

HIS NEW SUCCESS ON THE AIR

MAY MEAN MORE THAN FAME TO

BARBARA STANWYCK'S HUSBAND 41 Warner Brothels

By JUDY ASHLEY

TO most of us the radio is a toy, no more than a means of securing entertainment and relaxation. To some, those who work in the studios and offices of the broadcasting companies, it is a career and a livelihood. To a few it is a hobby. To Frank Fay it is the weapon with which he can fight to regain what is a man's most precious possession -his self confidence. The self confidence Frank Fay once had in -some said -too generous a measure, and of which he was robbed in Hollywood. Listen to him, on Rudy Vallee's Variety Hour, as he rattles on in that hare- brained way of his about his equally hare- brained relatives, or about his "Haters Amalgamated, longed Inc." or the inconsistencies of some popular song.

She had come, through night clubs and chorus work, to an immense personal success in the stage production of "Burlesque." She was regarded as a promising actress; more than promising. given the proper plays and direction. But Frank was nothing so du- bious as promising; he was an institution. He was the leader in their relationship, as he was (in those days) in every relationship of his life.

Then the talkies came along, and Hollywood began to clamor for actors and actresses with stage experience. vaudeville experience, musical experience-any kind of experience that would enable them to stand up in front of a microphone without going weak in the knees and dry in the throat.

Thus did Freddie begin his radio career, a career soon to become professional and to reach, little more than a year later, the heights of the leading role in "Peter Pan," broadcast from New York over Columbia's coast -to -coast network, and a seven -minute appearance on the Rudy Vallee show, and another CBS coast -to -coast Hollywood Hotel broadcast from the motion picture capital in California. Twice again before the Bartholomews left New York Freddie was heard briefly as the Major's guest -a second time on the Capitol Family program and once on the Amateur Hour. The boy loved the idea of talking over the air. No wonder he conceived the bright idea of receiving radio messages from the Major, once he was back in Holly- wood, by the same fascinating medium. Sometime during the course of that first Sunday visit to the apartment Freddie asked the Major if he had ever had any children of his own. The Major regretfully answered that he hadn't and further explained that his actress wife, Margaret Illington, had died nearly a year before. That conversation led to an incident which I should not credit, I fear, had not Miss Bartholomew told me of it with her own lips, and if it were (Continued on page 85)

BY BILL STUART LEARN HOMEMAKING FROM THE STARS BORN in a trunk" -how often have you heard that phrase applied to children of nomadic theatrical parents? But radio has outmoded the old saw; stars of the entertainment world now may rear their young not on trains, in hotels, but in the lovely atmosphere of that great American institution -the home. And radio stars, quick in their appreciation of the blessing of permanency, have become home conscious. As a class, their homes rival in comfort, coziness, luxury and the thousand and one little niceties that go toward a plentiful life, those of any other group of persons. Let's visit a few of your favorites, talk to them by their own firesides. Let us go, for a start, to the wooded hills of Larchmont, just outside New York City, and be guests for an hour of silver - Here's the beautiful and voiced Phil Duey, his charming comfortable home of young wife, and their two child- radio's Phil Duey.

You'd be amazed how this trick contributes to the wall decoration of living and dining room. Try it, if you have a vista suitable to such treatment. There are only two thoroughly modern rooms in the entire Duey house. The master bedroom, and of course, the spacious kitchen. Since the southern exposed bedroom receives plenty of light its walls are tinted water green, cal- culated to soothe the nerves of even a hard working radio star. Ind if your bedroom is crowded with furniture. try Mrs. Duey's prescription for a restful chamber. "I believe bedrooms should al- !+,: ways have spacious surfaces," she says. "Overcrowding with furni- h4illtat This is Mrs. Duey's idea of a restful bedroom, not overcrowded with furniture, and windows free from frilly and lacy curtains. cure is definitely a bar to relaxation in the truest sense." If you go in for "gadgets" -and what home enthusiast does not? -peek into the bathroom. You've had the an- noyance of splashed, water -spattered walls and bathmats, of course. Now look at the accompanying picture of the Duey bath. See that sliding glass panel so cleverly installed and saving the added space of a stall shower? There is that problem solved! And Phil assures me it can be installed at a cost ever so slight, considering its extreme usefulness. Not over $25.00 or $35.00. Now -you may not be as fortunate as the Dueys in having a handy artist friend who did their "Treasure Island" wall scenes for the basement recreation room, but don't let that worry you. You can certainly build a bar as Phil did, utilizing shelving and a few planks. And an old pipe serves perfectly for the time -honored bar rail. Just find an unused corner set back a ways from the other walls. Phil has carried out the English motif of the rest of the house with oak reproductions of English tavern chairs, benches, and tables. And, if you are handy with a saw, make your own round tables. In time, the natural wood colors to a deep oak. The cost of these soon is saved by the wear and tear your poor living room escapes when you have those con- genial little parties. And, in the absence of the artist friend, you can have fetching and original wall decora- tions by using as many magazine covers as you want. There's a trick to this and it takes patience if you've never tried it before, but the effect you get when you're finished is well worth all the fussing and fuming at the beginning. First, don't do anything to your basement walls. You work right on the plain cement, rough and unpainted. Select the magazine covers you like the best, cut and trim them and take them downstairs. With paste which will stick to cement and some thin lacquer, you're all set to start operations. Paste up a cover where you think it will be the most effective (it might be a good plan to lay out in pencil lines where all the covers are going to go before you paste any up) then with a brush lacquer the cover. All sorts of effects can be obtained this way, once the lacquer has dried, and if something goes wrong, it's simple enough to start all over again, provided your supply of magazines doesn't give out. In the end, you can invite your friends over and sit quietly by while they praise your ingenuity. This, incidentally, is going to be the most fun: having your friends in to inspect the finished job, room by room, and then see them rush off to try it for themselves. And with summer coming on very shortly, you're likely to have a lot of time on your hands that can be spent best in working on some particular room you've never felt quite satisfied with before. That shower bath arrangement I mentioned earlier, for instance. Imagine the effect on a group of visitors the first time they see your bath with a glass paneling! Ask them to guess how much it cost and then surprise them with the real price.

I couldn't understand what was said, for it was all in Yiddish. I could only watch. The old woman was doing most of the talking. She chattered on as if Mrs. Berg were an old friend she hadn't seen for years. For her part, the famous radio star was all housewifely sympathy. Her head wagged in that characteristic Jewish fashion which can express everything from pleasure to pity; she shrugged; made little commiserat- ing interjections.

When I spoke to her first I pretended I did. I asked if I hadn't seen her somewhere before, and she said, 'No, you must have seen my daughter.'

At one of the carts we bought a big sack of vegetables, after a good deal of rather close bargaining -for business is business, always, and one does not sell a pound of potatoes for less than it should bring. The old vegetable woman's gnarled hands hovered over her wares, pointing, selecting, guarding. But when the bargain was concluded and the vegetables put into a wrinkled paper sack, Mrs. Berg smiled and said in Yiddish, "Zie ges- undt," which means "Good health to you" -and the vegetable woman suddenly, almost furtively, tucked an extra carrot into the bag, with a quick murmured word of thanks. Then there was the bearded old man who sat on the steps of a tenement selling bright- colored shopping bags -a very old man, and not very clean. Still speaking Yiddish, Mrs. Berg asked him (Continued on page 78)

I'd be tired, maybe. and wouldn't feel like practicing. But Alice would keep after me and make me practice, just as if I were her little boy. "Then she'd tell me what was good and what was bad, and I'd sing the same thing over again." For the first time, Jan was learning how much the sympathy and encouragement of a sweetheart and companion could mean to him. Ile was coming to realize, too, how wrong his conception of marriage as a responsibility had been. A responsibility -yes; but more than that, a partner- ship. When, finally, his big chance came, it was Alice who saw that he didn't miss it. The late S. L. Rothafel- beloved "Roxy" -heard Jan sing the vocal refrain of a dance piece one evening in Sherry's Res- taurant, where he was working at the time. Roxy arranged to meet Jan, and promised him a job singing in the new Radio City fvlusic Hall. Eventually, Roxy made his promise good -but even then Jan might have refused to gamble if it hadn't been for Alice. To sing for Roxy meant giving up his orchestra job and devoting all his time to study and rehearsal. There was always the fear that he'd be a failure on the great stage of the Music Hall. By this time the Peerces had a little boy, Larry. and Jan felt as if he had no right to take a chance. "Alice just told me I was too cautious for my own good," he said. "She made me give up my orchestra job. 'Suppose it doesn't turn out all right?' she said. 'What of it? There are lots of orchestras that will hire you!'" Once more Jan followed Alice's urgent "Aw, Honey, I've never met your "Heavens above, who bit you, Son ?" advice-and, as you know, it was sound father-how'd I know?

nally a new long-term contract with Standard Brands. Now do you see what radio means to Frank Fay? It means the return of his self- confi- dence, the return of his self respect, but more than that, it means success on his His radio fame has come to him entirely through his own efforts, and in a field which was strange to him. It has proved to him he's still able to take an audience and bend it to his will, able to deliver a comedy line so people will hold their sides with laughter. No one helped him in radio. It can never be said that Barbara's influence, or her money, kept him on the Vallee hour or won him the new contract. Those years in Hollywood left their mark on him. When I talked to him, during a rehearsal in one of Radio City's studios, I didn't find the lively, voluble man I'd expected. All his attention was concentrated on the show being whipped into shape on the stage, for one thing. For another, he has learned not to give himself away. You do learn that, when you've been the object of criticism and conjecture over a long period of time. He made one oddly revealing remark, though. We were talking of movies, radio. and the stage, and Frank said, "When was a kid, I guess I'd have tackled the job of playing Shakespeare if anyone had given me the chance. But when you get older, you get more timid about trying something new. Since I've been on the air I've had several offers to go back into the movies, but I'm going to wait until I'm better established in radio. There are a lot of things I don't know yet about it, too."

THIS spring he will start his new program, and in doing so he will return to Hollywood. There will be drama in that return.

1 still love Hollywood," he told me. "It's a grand place to live and work -and I can't blame it for anything unpleasant that happened out there. It wasn't the town's fault. I'm really looking forward to going back, partly because I can see my son again when I do. He's four years old now -a great kid. I'll be spending a lot of time with him." And the first broadcast of Frank's new program, you might say, will be the final battle in the fight he is waging with radio as his weapon. It is to be a half-hour show, with Frank as its star, and on its success or failure depends his future hap - piness. For then he will be entirely on his own -no Rudy Vallee or variety show to help out. If it succeeds, there are those who pre- dict that Frank and Barbara will be together again. True, Barbara has filed suit for divorce, and Hollywood gossip per- sistently links her name with Robert Tay- lor's. But the decree has not been made final, and Hollywood gossip is sometimes wrong. One thing is certain. Frank and Barbara loved each other deeply and truly -and once more on an even footing, without the shadow of failure and dependence between them, they may one day again deserve the title by which they used to be known-"Hollywood's Perfect Couple."

When he learned they would have to wait for the official okay of the president of the company before he could go ahead, Phil remembered the people looking forward to his defeat. He told the board they couldn't wait, that other men were trying to sell the same idea to other sponsors; they told him they couldn't help it, that the president was fishing in isolated upper Wisconsin and it would take two days to reach him. Phil acted. Ile chartered a plane in New York, and not many hours later the president of Chevrolet was startled to see a plane alight beside his boat and a dynamic young man named Lord clamber into the skiff beside him. Perhaps it was because of this surprise that he didn't offer much resistance as Phil proceeded to sell him a radio show. G -Men didn't go off the air because it was no good.
