NEW YORK-Warren Sweeney, CBS an-
nouncer, tells about the soprano, niece of
radio exec, scheduled to broadcast_ As the
program went on the air, the announcer
sprightly began: "Due to conditions beyond
our control, we present the program origi-
nally scheduled for this time_"
Barry Wood tells of the actor who re-
fused a part as stool pigeon- he couldn't
do bird imitations.
Charlie Barnet spreads the one about the
woodpecker who explained his bandaged
nose with, "I just came back from the
Petrified Forest."
Tommy Reynolds, the clarinet maestro,
forwards the tale of the canine who asked
his girl friend to come up and see his
itchings_
A college acquaintance of Vido Musso,
the band leader, says the English course
isn't doing her boy friend any good because
he still ends every sentence with a pro po-
Eition.
Vera Barton knows a woman who treats
her husband like a Greek God. She places
a burnt offering before him at every meal.
Jimmy Lunceford knows a girl who was
asked by both the butcher and dairyman
to marry them. Would you call it a case of
marrying for butter or for wurst?
One ayem must be the story hour, says
Harry James. That's the time when most
wives ask, "Well, which story is it this
time?"
Les Hite wants to know if you've heard

Completes Big Season
PETERSBURG, Va. - Porter Van Ault
has brought his Travelling Arcade into win-
ter quarters here after having closed the
biggest seven months season since the last
war. The Arcade was out with the Cetlin
and Wilson Shows.
"It was the biggest season I have had
since the last war or in the last ten years,"
said Van Ault, "If we can go out next
year I look for a still larger season. Arcades
are sure playing a big part in the amuse-
ment field and will for many years to .
come."
Slot Law Hit
RIVERSIDE, Calif.- Riverside county's
gambling and slot machin e ordinance, was
hit November 18th when the State Supreme
Court held two of its sections unconstitu-
tional and ordered the release of Frank
Portnoy and Jake Katleman convicted Jan-
uary Ith under the statute. Men were
charged with operating an alleged gaming
establishment in a bungalow between Palm
Springs and Cathedral City.
State court held that the clauses dupli-
cated clauses of the state penal code and
therefore caused a conflict between state
and local laws_
Ginsberg Gives Pointers
CHICAGO- "We of the coin machine in-
dustry have much to anticipate when the
final United Nations victory has been
achieved and the American way of life
begins to resume its normal course," asserts
Maurice Ginsberg, Atlas Novelty Company
co·head.
"Coin machine and allied manufacturers,
now engaged in making war-winning pro-
ducts, will return to peacetime activities
with increased knowledge of mass-produc·
tion methods, new processes and novel
skills. The equipment that will then be
offered to operators will introduce a golden
era in coin machine operating.
"But we have to do a job now if we are
to enjoy prosperity in the future," Ginsberg
warned. "Aside from the always first duties
of helping to win the war with all we can
give of time, energy and money, we must
pay unceasing attention to the physical and
social well-being of our industry_ We must
see to it that we receive the maximum of
service from available equipment, and we
must use that equipment as wisely as pos-
sible. Then, too, we must conduct our ac-
tivities so that there may be no reflection
on operating to affect us adversely during
the post-war adjustment period. Such a
course, faithfully followed, will guide any
individual business safely thru the present,
I am sure," Ginsberg said.
Arcades Given Plug
LOS ANGELES--A feature writer in the
November 14th issue of The Times gave the
Penny Arcades considerable publicity un-
der the heading "Penny Arcades Popular
Again; One-Cent Sensations in Style."
The article recounted a visit to some of
the Arcades on the Main street rialto and
described at length the various ingenious
devices that go to make up a modern Ar-
cade.

"Does my practicing make you nervous?"
"It used to when I first heard the neigh-
bots discussing it, but I'm getting so I
don' t care what happens to you now."
