The wheels of industry are turning, and preparation is moving along at a rapid pace for, a lively Mick ey Mouse show this afternoon. MMC We had an old friend in from San Diego visiting us this week none other than Bob Hennen, the blonde, good-looking, used-to-be doorman who decorated this establishment in various and sundry capacities for the better part of last year. I think you remember him we couldn't for get him If -we wanted to. He's gone to work for a large aircraft concern In San Diego. It's some thing he's wanted to do for a long time, and I'm sure you all Join me in sincerely wishing him the best of success and good luck. He's a swell guy, and de serves it. MMC Appearing on last week's show were two of the most outstand ing entertainers we have on our talent roster. They were Alva Rafferty, the oldtimer with something new, and Dorothy Smalley, the sweetheart of the Mickey Mouse club. Let's see you both again very soon. MMC In response to many requests, Orville Beardsley is appearing on this week's show. It must be nice to be so popular, Orville. I can still squeeze in a couple of more acts on this week's show if I try real hard, even though I have a nearly full show already lined up. Don't let that discour age you from coming down to rehearsal at 10:45. On top of seeing the screen show for no thing, look at the experience you get. It's a good "deal" I think, and those of you who can do a little something a read ing, perhaps; a dance routine, play some instrument, or sing, should take advantage of the opportunity. MMC Heading the program this week is "Northwest Passage" with Spencer Tracy, Robert Young and Walter Brennen and a special feature for the Mickey Mouse matinee only, Joe Penner in "Go Chase Yourself." As short subjects, Sidney Blackmer plays the title role in "Teddy's Rough Riders" an episode in the life of our former president in technicolor; Artie Shaw and his orchestra, "News of the Day," and chapter 10 of the "Green Hornet." MMC So, until 12:30, at which time the doors open, Adios, and I'll see you pretty soon.
