Not a bad looking kid, is he?
And Man, all Man! Lanny was
born back in Seattle in 1906, the
son Of Douglas Ross, Shakesperian
actor Ross was captain of the
Yale track team during his stay
at the New Haven institution,
winning the national track cham
pionship for his alma mater.
He made his radio debut in '28
on Christmas night. Since then
his rise has been rapid. Now he
is the star tenor of Captain Hen
rvs Showboaot, an N.B.C. feature.
Lanny is not particularly So
cial, but he is much in demand
at gatherings of the elite. I've
got one pet peeve agi11' him-he
never reads newspapers, so he'll
never know the nice things we
say of him in this column.

You can't pull much over on
the confirmed radio addict. The
other night Myrt and Marge were
billed to sing a song. A couple
of trained canaries were hired to
double. Protests from the cash
customers - hundreds of them.
"It's good" was the tenor of the
protest letters, but it isn't Myrt
and Marge." And so, in future
episodes, Myrt and Marge will do
their vocalizing in person.

combines work with play.
They are cashing in on their social
graces by making themselves available
for bridge parties, and good time Is

= For II seems the shortage of per-

acute as the dearth of bond customers.
Hostesses arranging for dinner and
dancing parties find themselves won

to a dozen acceptable young men to
squire the surplus of "debbies" and
"sub-debbies.
Trained to carry on a certain
amount of small talk. to recognize the
right fork and to fill in as a bridge

In placing themselves at the dis

Political eddies swirled about the

launched in the House with the sup
port Of Democratic and Republican
leaders.
Assailed by Democrats.
While Representative Crisp the DEM
ocratic sponsor Of the bill, was telling
the House 1t was the corner stone OF
economic reconstruction, three Demo-
Gratis condemned the sales tax on the
hoor Of the Senate.
Senators Dill Of Washington, Nc
Kellar Of Tennessee and Walsh OF

Jectionable, dangerous and burdensome.
A Republican advocate of the sales
tax. Senator Moses of New Hampshire
promptly asserted the three speakers
In opposition were supporters of Gov
Franklin D. Roosevelt for the presi-
dental nomination. He added the
sales levy was special pet" of Speak
er Garner, whom he characterized as
q presidential candidate in opposition
TO Roosevelt. Moses charged they were
attacking the Speaker.
Senator Robinson, the Democratic
leader, ended the outbreak with a dec
laration that he favored the sales levy,
Objectionable as it Is" 1t was the first
assertion on the subject by the party
leader and was accepted as indicative
Of bipartisan support in the Senate for
the House bill.
The fiare-up had begun after Senator
Dill termed the sales tax DANGEROUS
and burdensome on the poor" declaring
he wanted to sound warning of an

not only in the Senate, but among the
people Of the country"
McKellar described 1t as "one Of the

Crisp that they would have on oppor-
tunity to vote on the proposed amend
ment by Representative Cullen, Demo-
crat, New York, to levy a barrel
tax on beer of 2.75 per cent alcoholic
content.
'I think the amendment is in order
and I am willing to have a fair debate
upon it," Crisp said. IT shall take the
