what was Waterbury's favorite melody during the month of No- Temberf Not wishing to answer that one ourselves. we called Jack Eitxgerald, local dance maestro, and got the immediate answer. sDAncing on a Rainbow" Playing daily and sometimes twice daily during the month, the energetic baton waver found that requests for the Rainbow" number were almost double that for any other selection. The fact that he has one perfectly swell arrangement of it had much to do with the num- ber's popularity.
 Second place in the favorites went to Big Bad Wolf," with rsHeaven Only Knows" and '"The Day You Came Along running close behind. Three tunes from "Footlight Parade" had lots of fol- lowers, namely Shanghai Lil," "By Waterfalf' and Honeymoon Hotel" Other hits were "Ill Be Faithful and "I Want You, I Need You The two other headliners in the Fitzgerald list were "on a Steamer Coming Over" and You Are My Past, Present and Future," both of which are still on the up- grade.
 Fitzgerald's choices, in the main, agree with song reports from the network centers. Dancing on a Rainbow" however, Is just coming into national prominence. Pri- marily a tune for dancing feet, its novel rhythm is winning it favor before the nations mikes.

 The station has already had one experiment with synchro- nizatiOn, teaming up with WEAF for some time. The procedure was not completely successful, causing considerable interference in other parts of the state. The great distance between Hartford and Dallas should prevent that occurrence, according to VITO officials.

 He also played again the tune that he introduced to national popularity Did You Ever See A Dream Walking?" Whiteman likewise played it. The king of jazz contributed another Tin Pan Alley classic, My Old Man. The title is new high in something or other. Peggy Healey, Ramo- na and Jack Fulton did some very good choruses for Paul. We also tuned in Ben Pollack, who played danceable dance music over WLW, and Paul Tremaine, who's on the air from New York over WOR.

Heavyweights Wanted.

r TOOK advantage of the break to
insert a question or two along more
general lines Mr.. Curley favored
me with resume OF present trends and
conditions
"A lot of boys come in here wanting
to learn how to fight" he said. They
all know there's a future for big fellows.
Some Of them are good enough to do
something with, but it takes a lot Of
work to get them in shape. Some of
them are better off doing something
else, and the best thing is to tell
them So"
1t takes Mr.. Curley as much as four
Or i've months sometimes to pare the
fat and the surplus flesh from the
frame OF promising fighter. It takes
nearly q year to prepare most novices
for professional fighting. But once
they start they rise faster than heavy
weights did in the old days. The divi-
sion Is running pretty thin, Mr.. Curley
thinks.
Outside of Baer, Carnera, Loughran,
this 1mpellittierre and a couple of
Others" he said, there's almost no one
any body ever heard Of young fell
low can come along fast if he's good.
Like this boy of mine Press. I've
been offered $1,000 for 90 per cent of
him, but I'm not giving away no pieces
for that kind of money
He'll wish he never touched the

Mr.; Curley stared the speaker down

Play Fast Basket Ball.

~OACH CAPPON said this morning:
We really do not know how good
we are, but expect to be right in
the thick of the fight for the Western
Conference championship" That is
enough to tell the story OF what the
coach thinks of his team because COL
leges do not play any better basket ball
than is played in that conference.
1T would be difficult for me to give
even a conjecture as to the possible
outcome of the game here. because I
don't know much about the brand of
basket ball played in this section," con-
tinued the Western coach. If it is as
good as I've been told then We are
likely to have a terrific battle under
stand that Maryland has a type of de-
Tense very difficult to get through, wtich
throws coed deal Of the possibilities
OF the game on the ingenuity of the
players themselves"
Aside from the fact that Richmond
has couple of boxers in its lineup
who had considerable experience in the
ring at Culver Military Academy not
much is known of that team. This is
R1chmond's first year in boxing as an
intercollegiate sport, but the group of
men now making up the team were
trained all last year to get them ready
for formal competition As a matter
OF fact, Maryland may stand better
chance to win the basket ball game
tnan the boxing, as it will have only
three letter men in its list of eight
fighters.
