In the pictures to come from M-G-M, you will find every type of entertainment conveyed by the word. Patriotic pictures, exciting adventure narratives, romantic stories, youthful musicals.

The latter category is enriched by the number of big name bands under exclusive contract to the most important and progressive studio in motion pictures. Need we mention the name?
In "Cabin in The Sky" you have already heard and seen "Duke" Ellington and his Orchestra. In "Presenting Lily Mars" you have had two bands — Bob Crosby's and Tommy Dorsey's.

Tommy Dorsey and his Band will also be featured in the forthcoming "Du Barry Was a Lady" and in "Girl Crazy."
★ ★ ★ ★
His brother, Jimmy Dorsey, will lead his melodic cohorts in "I Dood It." Looks like a Dorsey season.
★ ★ ★ Harry James and Orchestra will hold forth in both "Tale of Two Sisters" and "Best Foot Forward."
★ ★ ★ Incidentally "Best Foot Forward" is considered
the honey of honies. It will be beeg.
★ ★ ★ ★. Kay Kyser and Band is finishing "Right About Face." Vaughn Monroethe handsome diwil — and ! his Band areldoing "Meet The People.''
★ ★ ★
We forgot to mention — and how could we? — that the Good Neighbor artist, Xavier Cugat, also does his stuff for Uncle Samba in "Tale of Two Sisters."

Last but not least come the ladies headed by a gentleman with a stick to make them behave. Our cryptic way of announcing Phil Spitalny and his AllGirl-Band in "Mr. Co-ed."

So you see, whenever you're thinking of facing the music, go to an M-G-M picture.
