...sullen, composers are at odds about patents-but Mr. Ethridge's chief duty will be using his charming Southern accent to reason Mr. McNinch away from some of his notions. Reports that he was going to censor all radio material to prevent such celebrated slips as the affair Mae West, he implied, were ridiculous. He will take no salary. When Radio really finds a Tsar, he will gracefully step aside...

...last from the difficulties of supporting a family on a WPA salary; to Tommy it meant at first more excitement than he had ever dreamed of. His supporting cast was a group of typical Hollywood child players-Ann Gillis (Becky Thatcher), Jackie Moran (Huck), David Holt (Sid Sawyer), Marcia Mae Jones (Mary Sawyer), Mickey Rentschler (Joe Harper). Least professional of the lot Tommy's performance has also the charm of being the least camera-conscious. So far as Tommy was concerned, he never acted at all: "All I did was what I was told...
