Sensational Star-Studded
Orchestra Will Play Latest Tunes

The Carolina Cotton Picks, UNI
der able leadership of Leroy Har-
olson, and management of Fergu-
son Bros Agency, Inc, of Indianap-
oils, Ind, come to the New Colored
Skating Rink at Jackson, Miss, for
a Christmas night engagement, and
are as proud and independent an
aggregation as there is in Ameri-
ca. They rightfully have something
to crow about and refuse to lose
their independence. Lii Green, the
In the, Dark Mama" was recently
starred with them during a very
successful engagement at Kansas
City Mo, and more recently Una
Mae Carlisle, who rose to national
acclaim with her song Walking by
the River composed while she
was in London, England, a few
years ago, was featured with this
stellar aggregation, but more i'm
portant probably was the appraisal
of Pha Terrell, THE Voice of Ro-
NANCE" famed tenor vocalist and
recording artist of many hit tunes,
such as "Pll Get Along Somehow"
Until the Real Thing Comes Along
What Will I Tell My Hearth" and
many others and formerly featured
vocalist with Andy Kinks Clouds
of JOY" sought to form his own
band and followed the Cotton
Pickers from Miami to Norfolk, to
New York and then to Denver, Col
orado and finally to Los Angeles,
before he gave up begging them to
be the Sentimental Kings under
his leadership.
Now they have all the color of
the great artists that they are and
such nationally known artists re-
representatives. as Joe CHASER, Nc
Conkey Orchestra Company, Fred
erick Brothers Music Corp. and
General Amusement Corporation
are hot on their trail. Only recently
a letter from Berle Adams, who
represents General Amusement
Corp. at Chicago, said, you know
the colored attractions that we
handle are Cab Galloway, Louis
Jordan and his Tymphany Five,
Benny Carter, and Jay McShann,
and we feel that the Carolina Cot
ton Pickers would be worthwhile
addition" But the band chooses to
do good work and let it's light SO
shine that employers will see the
light in them SO that they may re-
tain their pride, living always as
brothers in one big family, as they
did at the Jenkins Musical Institute
at Charleston, S. c., where brass
band turned into swing band,
and one of Americas most diStinc-
tive. 1--WE aggregations was born.
This great aggregation of music
al stylists will exhibit their wares
Christmas Eve and Christmas night
at 900 at the New Colored Skating
Rink.
Kings, queens, preidents and die
tators will do themselves proud to
be there to witness all the fineness
and perfection of "jazz" as present
ed as only the CAROLINA COT
