hurried through the unbroken

They are one of the few color

this group that made Marie"

successfully initiated by Tommy
Dorsey, Jimmy Dorsey, Glen

band is an accomplished and
polished entertainer. Wheeler
Moran, the leader, was associat-

great Ethel Waters as arranger
and conductor. His arrangements
for the Four Ink Spots helped
establish them as the greatest

in several large White night
