U.N.-o Hits the Spot . . .

Manhattan's WNEW last week began broadcasting a series of six one-minute jingles about the United Nations. WNEW has also made transcriptions of the songs for the use of other stations in the U.S. and in other English-speaking countries. They were written by Hy Zaret and Lou Singer, authors of WNEW's Little Songs About Big Subjects.* Sample lyric:

I.L.O. and I.T.O. and U.N.E.S.C.O.

Are working U.N. agencies that work

for you and meo.

I.R.O. and F.A.O. I'm sure you will

agree-o

Will help the U.N. make the world a

better place to be-o.

It may take a year or two or maybe

even three-o,

But some day all the world will be a

happy family-o.

As we make United Nations a reality-o,

Then we will see a world where we are

happy, safe and free-o.

I.T.U. and U.P.U., the BANK and I.C.A.O.

Are working U.N. agencies that labor

night and day-o

For the FUND and W.H.O. we say

hurray-o.

A healthy world, a happy world, will

soon be on its way-o.

U.N. has been having a tough winter, and this is just what it needed-o.

* Biggest Zaret & Singer success was their modernization of Harvard Professor George Martin Lane's The Lone Fish Ball (1855) into 1945's hit One Meat Ball.
