The foreword beings "I think it will be of interest to the many admirers of the art of the late Evan Williams to know that Browning's 'The Patriot' was one of the great tenor's favorite poems." It goes on to explain how Williams asked Kramer to set the poem to music in 1917 initially Kramer liked the idea and began work but decided to stop when he realized the song could be misconstrued as a "'patriotic song' one of those wretched concoctions that were ground out by the hundred in those days." It was not until years after the war that Kramer decided to finish the piece unfortunately by then Williams had passed away and so Kramer dedicates the song to Williams' memory "a song that would not have been composed had he not sat with me one day and recited this poem so stirringly that I longed to attempt the setting of it."

At sixteen years old Chwatt got a job as an entertaining bellhop at Ryan's Tavern in City Island the Bronx New York City. The combination of his red hair and the large shiny buttons on the bellhop uniforms inspired orchestra leader Charles "Dinty" Moore to call him "Red Buttons" the name under which he would later perform. Later that same summer Buttons worked on the Borscht Belt;1 his straight man was Robert Alda. In 1942 Buttons appeared in the Minsky's show Wine Women and Song.

Modest in manner pleasant of voice he has a steel-like spirit that brings Prewitt honestly to life."

Scott helped out by getting him a part in the made-for-television movie The Last Days of Patton 1986. Kamens Printing paperback

Damn Yankees is a 1955 musical comedy with a book by George Abbott and Douglass Wallop music and lyrics by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross. The story is a modern retelling of the Faust legend set during the 1950s in Washington D.C. during a time when the New York Yankees dominated Major League Baseball. It is based on Wallop's 1954 novel The Year the Yankees Lost the Pennant. The show ran for 1019 performances in its original Broadway production. Ms. McGuire with her older sisters Christine and Dorothy shot to success overnight after winning the televised "Arthur Godfrey Talent Scouts" contest in 1952. Over the next 15 years they were one of the nation's most popular vocal groups singing on the television variety shows of Ed Sullivan Milton Berle Andy Williams and Red Skelton on nightclub circuits across the country and on records that sold millions. The sisters epitomized a 1950s sensibility that held up a standard of unreal perfection wearing identical coifs dresses and smiles moving with synchronized precision and blending voices in wholesome songs for simpler times. Their music like that of Perry Como Patti Page and other stars who appealed to white middle-class audiences contrasted starkly with the rock 'n' roll craze that was taking the world by storm in the mid-to-late '50s. In 1965 as the trio's popularity began to fade Phyllis McGuire's image as the honey-blonde girl next door was shattered by published reports linking her romantically with Sam Giancana a Chicago mobster with reputed ties to the Kennedy administration and a Central Intelligence Agency plot to enlist the Mafia in what proved to be unsuccessful attempts to assassinate the Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. Mr. Giancana and Ms. McGuire who had been followed by federal agents for several years appeared before a grand jury in Chicago. He refused to answer questions and was jailed for contempt. She testified that she had met him in Las Vegas in 1961 traveled with him to Europe the Caribbean and elsewhere and accepted his gifts in a continuing relationship. She was aware that he was a reputed gangster she said but insisted that she knew nothing of his underworld activities. "It makes me look terrible" she told reporters afterward. "It would be different if I were on my own but I'm not a single — I'm part of a trio. My sisters and my parents — they're brokenhearted about this." The McGuire Sisters retired from public appearances in 1968 Christine and Dorothy to raise families Phyllis to continue as a soloist. She appeared regularly in Las Vegas where she lived for the rest of her life in a mansion with a swan moat and a replica of the Eiffel Tower rising through the roof. Ms. McGuire remained unapologetic about her relationship with Mr. Giancana. "Sam was the greatest teacher I ever could have had" she told Dominick Dunne of Vanity Fair in 1989. "He was so wise about so many things. Sam is always depicted as unattractive. He wasn't. He was a very nice-looking man. He wasn't flashy. He didn't drive a pink Cadillac like they used to say." In 1985 the sisters reunited for a comeback and performed for almost two decades at casinos and clubs in Las Vegas Atlantic City and elsewhere. They sang their own hits 1950s pop hits and Broadway show tunes and Phyllis did impersonations of Peggy Lee Judy Garland Pearl Bailey and Ethel Merman. Kamens Printing Co paperback

The film was directed by Henry Koster who called Cummings "brilliant wonderful. I made five pictures with him. I thought he was the best leading man I ever worked with.

In 1954 Cummings appeared in Twelve Angry Men an original TV play for Westinghouse Studio One written by Reginald Rose and directed by Franklin Schaffner alongside actors including Franchot Tone and Edward Arnold. Cummings played Juror Number Eight the role taken by Henry Fonda in the feature-film adaptation. Cummings's performance earned him the 1955 Emmy Award for Best Actor in a Single Performance.

The company's name had several affiliations to Cummings: his youngest daughter was named Laurel Ann Cummings; the street he and his family lived on was named Laurel Way; his wife's grandmother's name was Laurel; and finally the fact that Laurel & Hardy had given Cummings his film debut back in 1933. His wife Mary Elliott was appointed president of Laurel Productions.90 In July 1954 Cummings filmed the pilot for his television show The Bob Cummings Show and would go on to produce 173 episodes.

Corners bumped exterior rubbed very good or better. For low voice and piano. Plate imprint "B-368." The author of the lyrics to this piece is the poet Francis Carlin full name James Francis Carlin MacDonald. Carlin was so dedicated to his work not just poetry but something he created called "Biblical Construction" that for many years his friends and colleagues in the literary world thought he had disappeared. A 1939 New York Times article about the poet is headlined "MISSING POET FOUND AFTER SIXTEEN YEARS; Francis Carlin Now Seeks Job as Dishwasher or Watchman." Carlin is quoted in the article as saying "If I succeed in getting a $10 or $12 a week job I will be able to finish the work I believe I was put here to do." We found an image of a press photo online the back of which completes the quote "I'll have my room my food and three fills of the pipe a day . A man couldn't ask more of life than that could he" Unfortunately his work is little known today and it appears he never published anything about his Biblical Construction.
