THEIR SCHOOL — THEIR CHURCH /
-/CHICAGO, ILL.—Although American public education is the finest
In the world, most people in the nation are without religious instruc
tion. And teaching religion is the work of the Church School.
For its mid-winter project in the Crusade year of Church School
Increase, The Methodist Church is, with other Churches, inviting school
authorities, if favorably disposed, to cooperate in conducting a “re
dgious education census” in public schools of the nation to determine
the students’ religious preference, and help lead them to the Church

Industry in Iraq
The climate of Iraq is continental, ]
with varying degrees of heat and
little rain and moisture, although
Iraq is in the temperate zone. Iraq
was noted in ancient time for the
manufacture of cotton, wool, linen
and silk textiles, also for tanning,
carpet and blanket weaving. To i
day there are many factories^ ,
among which are textile, shoe
brick, cigarette, tanneries, distiller
ies, ammunition and railroad shops.
The manufacture of copper and
bronze dishes and of gold and silver
articles also ha? become important.

NEW YORK — A gay circus
print on silk crepe fashions this
Pallet length cocktail dress design
ed by Ceil Chapman. The full skirt
accentuates the tiny patent lea
ther belted waist. Interest centers
around the V-shaped off-the-shoul
ier neckline and unusual diamond
ut-outs on the long tight sleeves.
Women Live Longer
The average length of life for
white women in the United States
has reached the remarkably high
figure of 69.5 years, according to
statisticians of the Metropolitan Life ,
Insurance company. For men the
average length of life is 64.5 years,
and for the American people as a
whole, 66 years. The increase in
expectation of life at birth since
the beginning of the century results
from a better control of infections

Wrestling Revived
Wrestling appears to have lapsed
as a sport between the time of the
Sumerians, 3000 B. C., and 1750 B.
C. when the Greeks put on a revival
at wrestling.
/
»ECENTLY there has been a trend to the use of singers and
^ bandleaders in the disc jockey field. Tommy Dorsey, Paul
hiteman and Bea Wain are but a few. Now along comes Duke
nngton and actor Canada Lee to invade the airwaves Their
ograms can garner a large Negro listening audience. Duke
ard on 12 stations throughout the country, is promoted by a’
me concern with a record of interest in the Negro market
:e is heard only on New York’s WNEW on sustaining time. Lee’«
ow, described as “the new look in platter spinning,” has a deft
te chance of being transcribed for national distribution. Pro
icers handling these two programs should certainly do their
vel best at least to cultivate Negro listeners, a natural audi
ice for the Duke and Canada—and the sponsors.
rITH THE WEBS;
Collyer
Ruby Dandridge, heard on the “Judy Can
ova Show” (NBC-Sats.-9:30 PM) is the mother
of Dot and Vivian, who are much in demand
on the Hollywood lots ... In real life “Super
man” is Clayton (Bud) Collyer. (MBS-Mon.
thru Fri.-5:15 PM) . . . Veterans in need of
GI Bill of Rights advice should tune in “Sa
lute to Veterans.” Commentator Lt. Comdr.
Krum conducts a question and answer session.
(NBC-Sats.-2:30 PM) . . . The day’s sports are
ably covered by Joe Hasel. (ABC-Mon. thru
Fri.-11:15 PM).
HOW TIME:
' Swing pianist Mary Lou Williams is the Negro member of
te “Suffragettes of Swing” quintet, who made their debut on
We, The People” (CBS-Tues.) this week . . . Pocket-sized re
.•iving sets and personal sending sets are predicted for radio’s
iture by CBS president Frank Stanton . . . When trumpet player
nger Valaida Snow told her story on Paul Whiteman’s “On
tage America” (ABC-Mons.-9 PM) one couldn’t help but ad
i:re her courage as a Nazi concentration camp victim . . , Illness
as kept Jimmie Basquette off the “Amos ’N’ Andy” (NBC
ues.-9 PM) show lately. However, the fast comedy pace of
veeman Gosden, Charles Correll, Ernestine Wade, Eddie Green,
asses White and the Jubilaires continues . . , Perry Como’s
•oatment of the Weiss-Benjamin tune “Pianissimo” on the Ches
•rfield Supper Club (NBC-Mon. thru Fri.-7 PM) is a rare lis
tning pleasure.
ERSONALITY OF THE WEEK: **
Herman Chittison’s piano artistry on CBS’s
Crime Photographer” (Thurs.-9:30 PM) has
lused many listeners to inquire if the script’s
iue Note Cafe really exists. A native of Ken
ucky, he’s never had a music lesson in his
!fe. In 1931 he joined Stephin Fetchit for a
®udeville tour, left him a year later to go to
lurope. Returned to these shores after a ten
par triumphant engagement abroad. While
paying at Ruban Bleu in New York, George
iox, who writes the radio show, heard him and
iked him so much .that he wrote him into
he script. He has been there four years now.

Replacement of Poles
The average life of a wooden wire
service pole is 20 years. Sixty-four
million wooden poles are in use to
day for power and telephone lines;
16 poles per mile for power lines
and 40 a mile for telephone lines.
With the present number of poles,
the industry must replace nearly 15
million poles each year.
Caribou Becoming Bare
Fifteen caribou are reported in
northern Minnesota, only two of
which are natives. Maine’s flock
disappeared in 1908. The caribou
are very good swimmers despite
their slender legs due to buoyancy
gained from their tubular hair
which acts like a life preserver for
them.
