suspense, and the producer of radio's outstanding theater of thrills, the master of mystery and adventure, William N. Robeson. The dream of every actor is the perfect performance. The performance that brings the audience to its feet, shouting bravo, and brings the critics to their knees with rave notices.

But audiences, critics, and playwrights being what they are, this dream is seldom realized. In the upcoming suspense story, however, it is, with some startling results. Listen, listen then as Mr. Vincent Price stars in rave notice, which begins in just a moment.

Memo on medals, facts and figures about military decorations with which you may not be familiar. Among the earliest forms of medals was a gold button presented by Alexander the Great to a high priest in the 4th century BC after winning an important battle.

Crude medallions became the standard form of commemorating victory until in the 15th century a noted Italian artist sculptor developed and perfected a classic medallion, the forerunner of our modern medals. During Queen Victoria's reign, the present system of awarding medals was introduced and was soon adopted by other countries.

Two famous early American medals appear in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. One presented to Captain Thomas Truxton, commander of the U.S. Constellation, for defeating the French frigate vengeance during the West Indies campaign of 1800. The other medal on exhibit is the one awarded to General Ulysses S. Grant for breaking Confederate control of the Mississippi River during the Civil War. Old or new

medals represent a memorable heroic act worthy of our respect and pride. And now Brave notice, starring Vincent Price, a tail well calculated to keep you in. Sauce Spence.
