"Everything happens for the best", my mother said (31) I faced disappointment. "If you carry on, one day something good will (32) ". And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.
Mother was fight, (33) I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to sport announcer. I hitchhiked to Chicago and knocked on the door of every (34)—and got turned down every time.
In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the sticks(偏僻地区) and find a (35) station that’ll give you a chance", she said.
I thumbed home to Dixon, Illinois. (36) there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was (37) I had played high-school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me. (38) I wasn’t hired.

As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked (41), "How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he (42) get a job in a radio station?"
I was (43) for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about sports? Do you know (44) about football?" Then he stood me (45) a microphone and asked me to (46) an imaginary game.
The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute buildup(宣传) to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s (47)!
On my way (48), as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words: "If you carry on, one day something good will happen—something (49) wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment".
I often wonder what direction my life might have (50) if I’d gotten the job at Montgomery Ward.
