Tarzan or tenor?
That's the choice which faced
John Brooks Mccormack some eight
years ago.
And because he chose the latter
role, he'll be the first male singer
to appear on this years "Metropoli-

Sherwin williams Company - re-
turns to the Blue network Sunday,

After he left school in Asheville.
N. c., young Mccormack began
gathering wild animals from all
parts of the earth and founded a
private ZOO. In it he had leopards.
lions, elephants and monkeys. In
all the years he trained and ex-
hibited the animals, none of the
lions or leopards ever attacked him
but he was in the hospital for
weeks because giant Asiatic rhesus
monkey flew at him and bit him
once when he was trying to put
the simian through its PAGES.
Mccormack had bten singing in
minor way while he was interested
in animals and, when he recovered
from his injuries, he began to give
serious consideration to singing as
a profession. For eight years he
studied with the late Madame Gau-
denzi in both New York and Milan
Italy, and at present is studying
with the famous Estelle Liebling.
