iJ to Gene Autrey, who en-
listed in the Army Air Corps,
is indicated. “He will not re-
ceive a commission,” an-
nounces the report. He’ll get
one, of course, eventually—
he’s bound to, because he’s
the stuff that officers are
made of. But when so many men
of the motion picture industry are
stepping right out as officers at the
start, isn’t it swell of Gene to begin
at the bottom? Reminds me of one
movie executive who told me that
he had applied for a commission as
lieutenant colonel in the army; if
he didn’t get it, he’d stay out! P.S.—
He didn’t get it!

Maybe Esther Williams started
something when, wanting a souvenir
that she could show friends who
weren’t in the movies, she bought a
white satin bathing suit and had it
autographed in black waterproof ink
by every star on the Metro lot. Inci-
dentally, though she’s a swimming
star, Esther really swims in “Andy
Hardy’s Last Fling”—usually Holly-
wood doesn’t let an expert do what
he or she is expert at.

The biggest stride of any regional
radio network show has been made
by “Grand Ole Opry,” the Saturday
night folk music program heard
over NBC. It was the first of the
in-person shows to make regular
army camp appearances last fall,
under the name of “Caravan.” Now
there are four road units touring
the camps. One master of cere-
monies has landed a network con-
tract on the new CBS Caravan Hour.

To prove that Uncle Sam uses
tadio talent to the best advantage,
take the story of Detroit’s Frank
Telford, director of the “This Is Our
Enemy” series heard over Mutual
Sunday nights. A former script
writer for the Detroit board of edu-
cation, Telford went to Washington
without network experience, but
with a briefcase full of ideas. Now
he’s made a niche for himself as a
radio executive.
