Smokey The Bear

Saved this sheet music from my childhood. These were printed up en masse for the kiddies (Cub Scouts, etc.) and our voices were raised in song around the communal campfire. Printing courtesy of the U.S. Government. Print this out and sing along!

Sybil Jason

Sybil Jason. Child film star. Best known for her work with Al Jolson and Shirley Temple. She came down to our studios and did a one-hour interview- it was fascinating television. Here's my souvenier from that evening.
