Noted Hollywood
Group Started on
Christmas Carols

By John McS,ceeney,
Wide World News.
Z HOLLYWOOD,


1t was back in 1884 that Robert
Bostwick Mitchell, 20-year-old or
ganist at st. Brendan's Catholic
Church, gathered a group of boys
to sing Christmas music at the
church.
A few months later the group,
by then dignif1ed with the title "St.
Brandan's Boy Choir" made its first
appearance on the radio. A year
after that the choir was in motion
pictures and starting the story of
one of Hollywood's unique organiza-
tions.
Today that same bunch Of boys.
now the Robert Mitchell Boy
Choir" is known throughout the
Nation. and preparing and singing
melodies has become their around
the-clock occupation.
They're the boys choir you saw
Pat O'Brien directing in Angels
With Dirty Faces" They sang with
Bing Crosby in The Star Maker" +"

OOllll LUG. Ou IL ilCdl tilCli III
"Tortilla Flat" and Yankee Doodle
Dandy" The Nation hears them on
at least one coaSt-to coast radio
show every week, and in between
they find time for sustaining
program or two.
Altogether. they've added song to
at least Is pictures. and they're in
demand at nearly every studio.
Let's drop in on the choir.
It's a typical weekday morning
at Mitchell's rambling frame house
in residential Hollywood. The boys
are struggling with algebra. Yes,
algebra thought this was a sing
ing school, you say? Sure 1t is, but
Mitchells boys get their regular
school at his home too.
Instructors are brought in to give
the youngsters four hours a day

writing and mathematics.

up. with an older man while Linda
Darnell and Deanna Durbin and
Ann Rutherford had fun.
Finally, I told publicity man
who knew Linda. He introduced us
and we became the best of friends,
like sisters almost. If had sister,
I'd want her to be like Linda.
Now I can let my hair down and
have whale of time"
AIMS ideas of fun contrast widely
and wildly. One is sitting at a
piano evenings and banging like
mad" Another is to barbecue a
steak and play a phonograph and
sing and dance, all by myself" ,
This doesn't occur often, but it
tops them all. When Carmen
Miranda is in town, Ann invites
her over. Carmen brings her own
band. That means a jam session.
"Its Out of This World"
Have you ever noticed that when
Carmen's SWaying to music, she
moves her lips twice as fast as
she swings her hips and shoulders?
(What man wouldO Well, she does.
$50 I tap twice as fast as I swing
my hips and shoulders. We do it
as a challenge to each other-sort
of a contest. We're just exactly
alike in music, spiritually, I mean.
We call it ki-ki."

every one Of the 25-odd young fel-
lows really Ikes-singing, singing
and more singing.
And Singing" with this group
covers pretty large order. They're
likely to start the afternoon off with
a Gregorian chant, follow that with
spiritual Joshua Fit the Bat
tie of Jericho" then break into some
1942-style swing or maybe toss off
classic-which they do in seven
languages.
Four-Part Harmony.
The Mitchell Choir differs from
most boys sing-groups in having ar
rangements divided into four parts,
high soprano to baritone, instead of
the traditional soprano alone. AS a
boys voice begins to crack" he's
assigned to lower parts.
THAT way the boys voice under
goes smooth transition from the
soprano of boyhood to the deeper
tones Of the teens, and, naturally,
it's the way to give a choir ver-
satility." Mitchell will tell you.
He likes to begin training them
for choir at about 8, taking them
in as regular members of the group
at II or IL. After that he figures
they can expect four or five years
of singing with his group.
None of the boys in that original
group Of Christmas singers is still
with the choir-they're retired" at
about 16-but each has been re-
placed with youngster carefully
selected for musical aptitude and
general intelligence Half a dozen
applications for additions are re-
ceived every month, but only one
boy in rs finally makes the grade.
Play Baseball, Also.
But don't get the idea these young
fellows spend all their time with

chores The baseball team they put

"It's something out Of this world"
So is anything else Ann likes.
Don't worry about the neighbors.
AIMS home-a $4,000 place she
picked up for $4,000 "and it's all
paid for"-is high on hill and out
of earshot.
Although Ann danced her way to
fame she wants to be a dramatic
actress. She thinks Ginger Rogers is
having the perfect career-dancing
to dramatics-and was thrilled when
Ginger won that Oscar for the best
feminine role of 1910.
She insists that dancers have more
life and feeling than the average
actress and that she is well pre-
pared for dramatics.
"I can dance and act and sing,
so help me. There's nothing ter
ribly wrong with my figure.
There's only one thing haven't
done, and that's fall in love, but
I'm ready to-"
Ann likes to hunt and fish; to 60

She's So Glad to Be 49, After Being 18 for Seven Years
So Could Professionally in Night and Shows
Chm1sM eNmrny
HOLLYWOOD.

Never, never will Ann Miller be
18 again no matter how great
the temptation. You see, AIMS been
18 nearly seven years and, now that
he's 19-an honest 19-she's &C.
statically happy about it.
For professional reasons, the girl
who claims to have created the
heel-and-toe machine-gun tap as
sumed the age of 18 sometime in
her 18th year. She was tall, she
hid her skinny-girl arms in long
sleeves, she wore wells, she used
makeup and she got by
with it. Here's why:
Before she was 13 Ann was
dancing in a San Francisco night
spot. No kid stuff, either.
At Is she played the role OF a
married woman in a movie.
At 16 she was a dancer IN George
Whites scandals.
Pretty sophisticated roles for a
mere child, so Ann said she was
18-and stuck to her story until she
became 10. She has birth GER
tiicate to prove that she was born
In Chireno, Tex, April II, 1928.
Ann never really had any little
girl hood. Her parents were dl-
vorced, so her mother - who'd
wanted to go on the stage but came
no closer than a little modelling
brought Ann to Los Angeles to study
dancing.
."SIept on Park Benches"
Normally so exuberant she almost
bubbles over, Ann suddenly pc
comes low-voiced and CONFIDENTIAL
as she relates:
1--WE really hit the road. We went
through hell. Slept on park benches:
We knew the wonderful thrill OF
a bowl of soup after two or three
days without food. We were thrown
out of apartments.
But I'm glad about it because 1t
gave me an insight into people. No
one can fool me now"
One night Ann, only II, won an
amateur contest.
"They give me two weeks at $65
a week (Ann's voice rises as II she
experienced that thrill all oveD. 1t
was because of my heel-and-toe
machine-gun tap. I created 1t.
God really did it for me. (Again
that low, confidential voice that's
hardly more than a Whisper I
PRAYED to Him every night.
That's why I could create the
narhine-p1ln tap. Until then, I'd
been dancing at an Elks Club or
Lions Club or some place for 81.
Maybe it would be clear across
town and cost a dollar to get there
and I'd get home with 20 or 81
cents"
Next spring came singing and
dancing job at San Fransiscos Bal
Tabarin. A movie scout liked her,
brought her to Hollywood.
She Wanted Youth.
Then she went into the Scandals,
doing a very passionate conga,
with all the wolves on Broadway
trying to date me" Critics called
her pulchritudinous and exotic and
even Spanish. Actually, I'm Irish.

Her name, incidentally, is Johanie
Lucille Collier but both she and her
mother. Mrs. Clara Miller. legalized
Miller because we had such awful
luck with our old name"
Ann danced her hot conga across
the country on a Scandals tour,
returned to the movies at 81 1000

But I paid for it. I wanted to
