Away from microphones, Mrs.
Heartburn is a very attractive yung
woman by the name of Agnes Moore
head, one of radio’s most talented
and versatile actresses. She was
born in Boston, the daughter of a

Miss Moorehead was headed for a
career of teaching when something
happened and she became a dancer.
Dancing is a long way from radio
singing, but the next thing she was
croning to a microphone. All this

Phil Baker, a triple-threat come
dian of stage, screen and radio, ranks
as one of America's greatest entertain
ers. Today he will pay a mythical
visit to Savanah. with his asociate
artists on the “Great American Toui
<st” urogram ovei ’WTOC and the
Columbia Broadcasting System at
t».3<* p.m. E. S. T.
A native of Philadelphia who
claims he sought a stage career be
cause because he wanted a job that
would let him sleep late. Baker de
veloped from a vaudeville accordion
ist into one of the country’s top
notch comedy aces. His long and
impressive record as the star of
Broadway musical comedies and re
vues. followed Dy his sensational suc
cess on the airwaves, nave also made
him a “natural” for motion pictures.
Among the many successes in
which this versatile comedy player
has played are: “Greenwich Village
Follies,” “A Night in Spain,” “Ar
tists and Models,” “Americana,” and
“Pleasure Bound.’ To theatergoers
he will be remembered as ;h3 first
actor to employ a ‘stooge’ in an im
portant Broadway production. Ever
since the memorable night that ‘Sid

the “stooge” has been in his glory.
Baker, rightly known as the “Fa
ther of the Stooges,” has carried his
stage success onto the air and has
led the way in the use of microphone
stooges. He has four of them in his
current radio series and they will
all be cn hand to make trouble for
him during hs mythical stay in Sa
