HAVE YOU TUNED IN... Lucy Monroe, singing on Manhattan Merry-Go-Round, sponsored by Dr. Lyons Toothpowder, on NBC-Red every Sunday night at 9:00, E.S.T. Lucy is the young lady who, quite by accident, has become the country's foremost singer of "The Star Spangled Banner." She has sung it more times than you could count — at conventions, patriotic rallies, benefit performances, in Army camps and in the big musical production called "American Jubilee" which was one of the attractions of the New York World's Fair. Lucy is well-equipped to sing the National Anthem, because she has a lovely clear soprano voice, and also because she herself is All-American. Her family came to this country in 1610 and seven ancestors fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill; she herself was born in America and received every bit of her musical education here. It isn't easy to go from the back row of the chorus in a musical comedy to grand opera and "The Star Spangled Banner," but Lucy did it. She progressed from the chorus to a singing part • in a musical comedy, but lost the job because the director said she was too unsophisticated. That switched her interest to more operatic kinds of music, and maybe was a good thing for her. Anway, she made the grade, and has sung with several different opera companies, although never the Metropolitan, and with the New York Philharmonic and Philadelphia Symphony orchestras. She isn't sure just how she started singing "The Star Spangled Banner." In 1937 she was invited to be the American Legion's official soloist, and of course she sang it there. In "American Jubilee" she sang it several times a day, in the finale of the show, and by that time the tradition was established that if the Anthem was to be sung in public, Lucy Monroe was the best person to get. She travels all over the country doing her specialty, always without compensation and usually at her own expense. She doesn't think "The Star Spangled Banner" is a particularly difficult song, either, in spite of the frequent criticisms against it on that score. Specializing in the Anthem made her the logical person for RCA-Victor to choose when they decided they needed a director of Patriotic Music. She holds that post now, and passes judgment on most of the patriotic music that's written, helping to decide which is worthy of being recorded. Also, she's a member of the Music Sub-Committee of the Joint Army and Navy Committee on Welfare and Recreation, which means that she goes to different camps organizing entertainments.
