The Unhurried Traveler. He walked
along the coast highway with a
suitcase in his hand, and he
looked tired, as though he'd. been
at it a long while. We stopped and
asked if he wanted .a ride, but
he shook his head politely and
said, "No, thanks, I've got plenty
of time. And I enjoy the view."
We thought no more about it
until our return trip when we
talked with inspectors at the
California-Oreeon state line. They
told us the man had stopped there to rest briefly. He said he was on his
way to San Francisco for an eye operation thaj would probably cost him
his sight. And he was walking all the way, savoring scenes he might
never see again. Mrs. R. E. Bottel, O'Brien, Ore.
S.O.S. or Save Our Seta! I was one of the first announcers of WGY,
Schenectady, N.Y., a pioneer radio station which made its debut Febru
ary, 1922. I'll never forget a program I announced in our first week of
broadcasting.
In those days, all stations were required to go off the air at a moment's
notice if ships at sea were transmitting for help. This would clear the air
for their signals. Before each program, all performers were informed of
the strict rule, but so manywere nervous nonprofessionals they scarcely
heard the instructions.
This one night, a buxom, determined, and rather shrill soprano was
next, and I introduced her: "Mrs. Jane Doe, soprano, will sing, 'All
Through the Night.'"
She completed the first verse and was going stronger, shriller, and
decidedly more off -pitch into the second, when the control room gave '
me the sign, and I was obliged to broadcast: "Ladies and gentlemen of
the radio audience, Mrs. Jane Doe has been singing 'All Through the
Night.' We will now stand by for distress signals." Kolin Hager, Fort
Lauderdale, Fla.
TV Is Kid Stuff! My neighbor
told me this one:
His 10-year-old daughter and
9-year-old son, flat on their
tummies, were watching tele
vision. Daughter: "Wonder when
somebody's going to invent
something new. I've been
watching TV all my life."
Son: "Yeh!"-Jay Godfrey,
Bakersfield, Calif.
Welcome Home. My long vacation ended and I returned to the city. I had
been away some time, so there were many changes. One thing, however,
never changes very much, and that's the pile of dirty clothes that
accumulates when you're on a trip. '
I went to the local laundry, not expecting to see any familiar faces, but
the same girl was in charge. She greeted me heartily with, "I don't
remember the name, but it's heavy starch on the slacks and light on the
shirts." Mrs. Evelyn Chadwick, El Paso, Tex.
