She is frequently heard on the KFAB drama series, Aunt Jenny's Real Life Stories, aired daily at 9:45 a. m. With the aid of a trick camera, Amos and Andy are seen here talking to themselves In and out of character.

At the left is Andy dictating to Charles Correll what Andy says in the script, and at the right is Freeman Gosden listening to Amos cjhatting amiably along. They are heard on KFAB nightly at 9 o'clock. Here Is Wee Bonnie Baker whose singing is the sensation of Orrin Tucker's bond, looking over the fan mail with her band leader boss. As much as a year ago, friends told Tucker Bonnie was a liability to his which may account for his I-told-you-so grin. Bonnie's real love is Toby, her toy fox terrier, shown here.

She says she and Tucker are just good friends, as does Bonnie's mother, who travels with the band. Bonnie's real name is Evelyn Nelson and she joined the band in St. Louis. She is a native of Texas. They are heard on the Hit Parade, aired by KFAB at 7 p.

m. Saturdays, T3EHIND cMIKE by Ei We pre.sume we are violating no secret when we say that nature! holds many mysteries which we humans have not understood as yet. Some of them may not even be worth understanding. But the other evening, immersed as we were in our customary inertia, some of the significant trends of the winter radio became fixed in our mind. At least, at the time they seemed significant and they had us baffled.

There were two, we thought, which seemed to stand out above the others. Perhaps it was because the day before three or four ti.sh- ermen had written this department to ask about them. At the moment we have the feeling that broadcasting is to become the victim Of its own letter split second, and precise way of doing things. Take, for example, the exact language. Nearly everything said on the air is first put down on paper, grammatically correct to the infinitive, and then timed to the last period.

Listeners, after a decade of reasonably exact script reading, have come to expect a perfect performance. But with the advent of studio audiences (to cui'se the home radio enjoyment), the performer must be doubly careful. During the past winter, this has given rise to a game between radio artists and their visible audiences. The studio crowd waits breathlessly until the star of the show makes a mistake in his lines, which is the signal for a loud outburst of belly laughs. We remember a program where this bungling of scripts Ret a better laugh than the regular Hags.

We see in this evidence that man is rapidly gearing his mind to the precisicm of the machine. Have we become so letter perfect in broadcasting that an error in reading a script or missing a sound effect i.s reason for a delirious outburst? Judging from the studio audience.s, a good mistake will top the best humor radio can produce. If those fLshermen are still with us ju.st have to get a bottle of our inertia and forget the whole thing. There's another trend we like to take up. Why is it that studio audiences always applaud vigorously.

whistle, or cat call when someone is asked where from on those quiz getting damned tired of hearing! applause everytime someone says he hails from the Bronx, Brooklyn or Long Island. getting so lately that the studio applauds regardless of what New York point they come from. Just what is so inspiring about being from somewhere? It would be pretty embarrassing if someone got on a quiz show some night without being from somewhere. All we hope is that someday a Mr. Lester Orkington from Navo- torzhskawa (formerly of Kras- nokokshaiska) steps to a microphone.

If the studio applauds ready to concede that here is the same genuine moral and cultural degeneration currently being manifested in hats. On certain days, certain things sound pretty funny to u.s, if you know what we mean. It so happens that lately we have been highly su.sceptible to humor on Wednesday evening.s. Perhap.s that is one reason why had the feeling the Burns and Allen program had steadily become funnier since Gracie announced her candidacy for president. It plausible to add that the show probably has been getting funnier.

There was a time last winter when we felt the program was lacking in some particularly humor. There to have been other.s. Rut lately, the program's audience rating ha.s been steadily climbing in popularity over the nation. This sort of formula seem.s to lend itself to the Burns and Allen team, and may be the fruits of many years entertaining the fickle U. S.

public. Gracie (who.se full name is Grace Ethel Cecile Rosalia Allen) now 35, joined her father's song and dance act at the age of three. She got convent schooling but at 13 became a full fledged vaudeville singer. In 1922 she teamed with George Burn.s, (real name Nathan Birnbaum) who had been a hoofer since was 12. In 1926 they were married and in 1933 a guest shot on Eddie Cantor show led to radio where they have been ever since.

Their reported weekly salary it $9.000. When not taking care of their two adopted children at their Beverly Hills home, Gracie paints her own brand of surrealism on the side. Among them is one picture titled, Can Sinking a Couple of Hard Putts In No Trump." The current presidential gag having the success Burns and Allen enjoyed in 1933 when they started a nation-wide hunt for lost brother. In addition to her own Gracie made the rounds of other network programs asking li.steners to help locate the lost brother. It became a national craze, but it proved to be a big nuisance for her real brother, George, who lived in San Francisco and wa.sn't lo.st.

After being ribbed unmercifully, he wired Gracie, you make a living any other Then he really disappeared until the gag blew over. Here is part of the cast of the Star Theater which performs in Hollywood Wednesday nights crt 7 o'clock for a CIBS network including KFAB and KOIL. That's Frances Langford trying out her lines, her husband Jon Hall kibitzing at her left. Announcer Jimmy Wallington is holding the script and Kenny Baker to be enjoying the wise cracks.
