29 Crisco Radio News

Crisco's radio newspaper with Bernardine Flynn brought to you by Crisco the pure all-vegetable shortening. It's digestible. Now Bernardine Flynn. Thank you, dear, Ferdinand. Hello, friends. Before there would Kirby bring us the latest world news?

I want to tell you a little story about Sergeant Louis Newbar, who is stationed at Fort Douglas, Utah. Sergeant Newbar, it seems, just doesn't like to be crowded. So for a long time he has made it a practice to get up a little earlier than the rest of the soldiers in the barracks so he can shave ahead of the washroom rush.

The other morning he was awakened by noises coming from the squadroom. Hmmm, time to get up he said to himself and drowily through the cupboard's back and hustle down the shade. He carefully finished the job and then returned to the barracks.

For some reason or other not feeling as though he had enough sleep. And when he re-ended the barracks, the truth dawned on him. No wonder he fell as though he hadn't slept enough. It was only one o'clock in the morning.

The noise he'd heard was some of the boys just coming in. And now there were what's the latest world news. American heavy bombers picked up the air offensive against Western Europe this morning, Bern. Our flying fortresses blasted targets at Brunswick, one of Germany's major manufacturers of aircraft engines, as well as an important communication center.

fortresses were escorted into their target by formations of American and British fighters. Early reports say there was heavy anti-aircraft fire, but practically no German fighter plane opposition. Our liberators and other planes also bombed the French invasion coast.
