"The Easy Aces" Also Want To Visit Us
AST September, the National Commercial Broadcasting Service sent to Jane Ace, of Easy Aces fame, in New York, a birthday book containing signatures from admirers all over New Zealand, interspersed with goodwill messages and photographs. The following letter of acknowledgment has now been received from the "Easy Aces": Dear "Scrim"’: Both Jane and I wish to thank you for the most wonderful book of names signed by al! our friends in the Land of the Long White Cloud. In the 12 years we have been in radio this is the nicest gesture we have ever enjoyed. We invited to our home Cokey, Marge, Miss Thomas and all the other members of our radio family, and we all had a marvellous time reading every page of the book. Jane, of course, was at a loss for words. As she put it-she was "unspeakable." And she put it down in her book of Things to Do in the Beautiful World to Come that we must go and see for ourselves all the beauty those pictures convey. So perhaps in not many birthdays to come we shall be strolling into the National Commercial Service to say hello in person to those many persons who wished Jane a happy birthday. The album is one of our prized possessions, and as we thumb through it from time to time, we get a glowing warmth as we think and realise that lurking somewhere behind the horrible pages of modern history, there are a kindly, brotherly people who can take time out to write their names in a book of good cheer. Kia Ora from all of us to all of you. THE EASY ACES.
