So it is with hope in their hearts that two prison CTS, one life termer and the other serving a, ten-year stretch" have turned their efforts to producing bal lads. Their first effort is entitled My Heart Was Filled With Tears and will be introduced here by Miss Charlotte Walker. the popular entertainer at the Peacock.
 It was through a story in The Ari- zona Republican that the authors oi this song learned of Miss Walker. The newspaper had been brought into the prison by visitor. Following receipt of the following letter Miss Walker agreed to do all she could to promote the ballad:
