CBS at 8 p. m.

a most embarrassing situation!

the ridiculous, in its Easter broad

light of the program will be the
singing of “The Lord’s Prayer” by
the St. Brendan’s 20-voice boys’

’’Hollywood Mystery Time” sleuths,
go to a seashore resort and uncover
a mystery murder, ’’The Case of the
Floating Feather,” on Sunday, April
1. at 9:15 p. m., over Station WATR.
Invited to a beach party by a hostess
who has a feeling of impending
tragedy, they find that two girl
guests, jealous of each other over a
man, had argued shortly before the
death of one of them. Jim and

but all they can find is a feather
floating on the surf. The feather,
though, is enough to point to the
killer’s identity, and an exciting'
chase ends the investigation. Carle
ton Young and Gloria Blondell co
star in the thriller.
