G.I. Journal

Photoplay Magazine  April 1940


Radio Newspaper of the AEF and in the public domain.  Stars abound to put together a radio newspaper for the boys "over there".  I've only found one episode with Ginger Rogers appearing in it on archive.org.  Frank Sinatra and Fibber McGee and Molly (Jim Jordan and Marian Jordan) carry most of the show and make with the laughs while they wait for Ginger Rogers to arrive (13:48).  Connie Haines, Mel Blanc, Arthur Q. Bryan and the Les Paul Trio can also be heard.
