Arthur Godfrey Fires
Six Singers, 3 Writers
To Get Back in Top Ten
NEW YORK, UP)—Arthur God
frey, who fired six singers and
three writers from his radio and
TV shows, says his programs need
fresh talent and a new pattern.
Godfrey Friday gave the sack
to the Four Mariners, a mixed
Negro and white male quartet;
Marion Marlowe; and Haeloke,
attractive Hawaiian singer. Writ
ers dismissed were Charles Hor
ner, Preston H. Miles and Charles
Slocum.
“We’ve become top-heavy with
stars,” Godfrey said. “We are
going to try to break into the
top 10 again with a new show.
“This will give more people a
whack at it, give more opportun
ity.”

Policy of Using Ex-Reds
As Paid Consultants
Called “Very Foolish”
WASHINGTON, 05V-Atty. Gen.
Brownell says the use of ex-Com
munists as paid government “con
sultants” in immigration cases
“was very foolish from a stand
point of successful prosecution.”
Brownell told a news confer
ence Friday that this practice,
now abandoned, made it “look
like the man was a government
employe.”
Ex-Reds now are used only as
“expert witnesses” at a daily fee,
he said, rather than as consul
tants guaranteed a certain amount
of work each year.
Our impression is that “virus”
is a word now used to cover a
number of vague ailments that
miracle drugs won’t cure.
