Growing up, he directed a high school orchestra in Baltimore, then one at Johns Hopkins University. After college, he rode the rails from coast to coast looking at life from a hobo's viewpoint. For a while he worked in Hollywood. Then the Orpheum Circuit got him as a master of ceremonies. A vacation took him to Bermuda where an astute hotel manager signed him up to agitate the Hamilton Hotel dancers. He was there until his return to Gotham and the McAlpin. VOU are liable to hear some new tunes soon from Columbia's busy orchestra conductors. Freddie Rich, after three years of watching the skylines from his high Manhattan apartment, has written t a thing called "Pent House Symphony." Vincent Sorey has just completed "The Song of My Soul," a melodic ballad dedicated to Nino Martini, the celebrated Italian tenor. Isham Jones, a song writer whose products, if laid end to end, would reach from here to there, has added a trio to his list including "Something Seems to Tell Me Something's Wrong." Isham, by the way, is the author of Ruth Etting's famous lament, "You've Got Me Crying Again." ^* LEVER people, those Chinks. They have protested that Cat) Calloway's rendition of "Minnie the Moodier" and Duke Ellington's "Limehouse Blues" are hurting the reputation of the Wongs and Chin Lees. As a result, the major networks may bar these two famous numbers from the air. To date, however, no objections have been offered to broadcasting the activities of Fu Manchu. Probably, because Fu Manchu invariably shows up the white detective with whom he is in conflict. JUST the other day Columbia counted up its brothers on the air. And found thirteen pairs. The Felix Ferdinando orchestra has six brothers in it, Tom and Fred Waring, the four Lombardos, Mark and Harry Warnow, the four Shilkrets, the four Mills brothers, Tom and Jimmie Dorsey of Hayton's orchestra, and Sam and Howard Lanin. Columbia's canny pressmen sent us the story with the comment, "Don't thank us for this. It's no brother at all."
