...Friend Irma (Paramount), as millions of radio fans know, is a dizzy, alluringly dumb blonde. Cy Howard, her CBS creator and co-author of the screenplay, has seen to it that in her first screen appearance, Irma (Marie Wilson) is just as her fans would have her. She keeps the butter in the oven, the egg beater under a sofa cushion; she short-circuits the plans of her boy friend (John Lund) and her roommate (Diana Lynn), and in general does everything in the least rational way possible. None of this is very funny and much of it is downright...
Behind God's Back. The idea of God as Creator, says Barth, is not, as generally thought, an easily accepted article of the Creed on which "Christians, Jews and Gentiles, believers and unbelievers ... to some extent stand together." God as Creator is a mystery as difficult of comprehension as the belief that Jesus Christ was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of a virgin.

Fantasy is the idea of Anthony Boucher, 38, a top mystery writer (creator of Sister Ursula, the nun-detective) and J. Francis McComas, 39, onetime radio announcer and wonder-story writer.

In all the years, the Goldbergs have never managed to climb out of their Bronx tenement at 1038 East Tremont Avenue (in real life, 1038 is a street intersection). The Goldbergs have never made Park Avenue. But their creator, plump, 50-year-old Gertrude Berg, did. She has also bought a country estate on the more than $1,000,000 she has earned from the multiple Goldberg enterprises...
Thus, for the 2,462nd time, Portia Faces Life (Mon. through Fri., 5:15 p.m. E.D.T., NBC) brings to its avid listeners the innermost thoughts and self-sacrificial impulses of its heroine. Considerably less bemused at Portia's unflagging nobility is her creator; in fact, tall, tense Mona Kent, writer of Portia Faces Life, is betraying her stainless heroine for the first time. In a novel to be published next week (Mirror, Mirror on the Wall; Rinehart; $3), Scripter Kent tells the story of "a girl who wrote soap operas and tried to live her life according...
