Jack, who has been named best-liked personality and favorite comedian by listeners Mid radio editors more often than any other microphone star since he first appeared on the air, was one and a half-dozen famous theatrical names 'who began broadcasting in 1932.

Mary Livingston, whose fame as chief heckler is as great as Jack's own, will resume her accustomed place in the new series. The talented actress is not quite the air veteran Benny is, since it wasn't until three weeks after he began broadcasting six years ago that she joined iis cast.
