Janet Wilde returns to film from radio. Tom Coats doubles as stunt rider. Bendix lands his own radio show after guest spots. NBC unveils Here’s to Youth a 13 week series starting Jan 15 with 31 million youth in ten organizations. Coburn stars opposite Constance Dowling in Knickerbocker Holiday and Ella Raines shifts from The Uninvited to Hail the Conquering Hero with Eddie Bracken.
