one real dead. Neither is in a po-
sition to sue you now"

Sometimes, it seems, we just don't
know our own strength. A recent
note here about Sue Milroy, the
Madrillon's pretty and talented
singer, did not ease her life at all.
1t was reported that Miss Milroy
was depressed at the quality of the
songs available for a singer right
now. The people who write popular
tunes were in slump, Miss Milroy
complained and we agreed.
Nobody bothered us about it, but
Susan was deluged. Every one In
town who thought he had the an
swer to any hit-tune shortage
promptly dispatched his answer to
Miss Milroy. She was buried up to
here under wave of sheet music.
Since Johnny Robb, who leads the
Madrillon orchestra, can't spend
money for special arrangements OF
and rehearsal time on amateur
tunes of an unknown quality, there
is nothing Miss Milroy can do for
the embryo song writer's. Her mes
sage to them is, simply: Good luck,
fellows, but please leave me alone. "
II
There are some around the town,
of course, who write tunes worth
lending an ear to. One Of them is
Bob Brewer, who plays the piano at
the King Cole Room. One OF the
happiest meetings of talents you will
hear around these parts is the one
that occurs when Dona Mason's
singing talent meets Mr.. Brewers
song-writing talent. Her versions OF
his Laughing at Myself" and
Sleepy Eyes" are something special
Miss Mason's version of almost any
thing is something special, OF course
She's as ready for bigger things in
show business as any one who ever
sang at the King Cole Room ever
was.
