This waiter, an average Negro
of the type, who makes it habit
to attend Negro league baseball
games, give to the NAACP, put on
his regalia and march with the
Elks Lodge, and support everything
Negro which he thinks is worth
while, was probably expressing a
point of view shared by thousands
of colored showgoers all over the
nation. The exploits of Joe Louis,
the acclaim by the nation of theatre
and movie stars of the new genera
ton of Negroes like Lena Horne,
Miller Brothers and Lois, the Mills
Brothers, Hilda Simms, Pearl
Primus, Hazel Scott, the Nicholas
Brothers, the Delta Rhythm Boys,
and so on, are a constant source
of pride to the "little Negro" as
typified by the waiter. They don't,
on the whole, really care for the
old-fashioned "darky" act or per-
former in which pork chops, water
melon and chicken are the main
means of getting a laugh. In
stead, they worship dignity as ex-
pressed by the King Cole Trio, The
Duke Ellington, Jimmy Launceford
and Noble Sissle orchestras.

Trio Display Artistry

In addition to the great dignity
displayed in their first Harlem ap-
pearance by the King Cole Trio was
the consummate artistry of their
work. Versatility seems to be a
watchword with this threesome,
but through all their performances
of various kinds of music, torch,
swing, comedy, ballad and blues,
a dominating style is present,
identifying the music as strictly
King Cole. The people like that.
Imitators don't get too far. Box
office attractions are built today on
originality. That's why the King
Cole Trio is so far out in front.

LETGHBUR TELLS WHY FOLKS
FLOCK TO HEAR KING COLE
BY DON DeLEIGHBUR

When the King Cole Trio was
playing Harlem's famous Apollo
Theatre a few weeks ago and set
ing an all-time attendance record,
somebody wanted to know just
what was it about these three boys
that led people to stand for hours
in the rain and cold to get in to
see and hear them. Of course, it is
factual that recordings which be-
come nationally popular are the
springboards from which musicians
and singers can jump into the Gin
person" leadership when they play
theatre and night club engage
ments. 1t is also a fact that radio
and movie engagements contribute
to the popularity of attractions to
the point where they draw huge
crowds at the box offices.
Why Common Man Likes Trio
However, in the case of the King
Cole Trio, something else played
a contributing if not major role
in the tremendous success the three
boys have attained since they left
Hollywood on a nationwide swing.
It was best expressed by waiter
in one of the Harlem restaurants
who had just come from the Apollo
Theatre. Said he:
"Man, I'd stand in line to hear
them fellers any time and any
place because they don't bring me
down like some of the other colored
entertainers. There amt no whole
lot of showing their teeth, GRIMM,
scrapin' n bowin' an talkin' bout
pork chops, watermelons m yas-
sab boss 1--WE bout them. They just
sits up there an plays that music
like it should be played. They
make you feel good you're colored.
Yes they do"
