Tonight from the death and versus o pen of mister
Ernest Cannoy, a writer for whom our admiration grows with
every passing week, we present Whistle, Daughter Whistle. Both mister
Canoy and our fine director friend, mister Duncan have been
giggling through most of the afternoon's rehearsal. It is there
sincere hope in hours two that you will giggle for
the rest of the evening. In any case, garbed in

calico and armed with the broom, Radio City Playhouse presents
Attraction four Whistle, Daughter Whistle. Every Sunday morning, The New

smiling pictures with little stories underneath. Ethel Glasgow when or

up wrapped around salami Sandwaltuzer spread out on the kitchen
floor as the weekly wash drips water down their newsprint
decal tes. But in Peggy Mark's house, the Sunday Society
(01:37):
