“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said whenever I         disappointment. “If you can carry on, one day something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not         that        disappointment.”
Mother was right,           I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to         a job in radio, then work my way up to sports        . I hitchhiked(搭便车) to Chicago and         on the door of every station—and got turned         every time.
In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring an         person –“Go out in the sticks(偏远地区) and find a small station that will give you a         ,” she said.
I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois.       there was no radio—announcing job in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to         its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I        . The job         just right for me. But I wasn’t hired.
My disappointment must have        . “Everything happens for the best,” Mom        me. Dad offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.

I was waiting for the elevator         I heard Mac Aethur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to stand before a microphone and to broadcast a (an)      game.
On my way home, once again I thought of my mother’s words. I often wonder what dirction my life might have taken if I        the job at Montgomery Ward.
