Jimmy Carroll, the new singing
star at the Mayhower Lounge, is
frank and blithe young man who
will cheerfully admit he prefers
radio work to personal appearances.
He will tell you though, that radio
business isn't so good right now, If
you've talent to peddle.
A tenor who broke into show busi-
ness with Ben Yost and his Varsity
Eight, Jimmy would much prefer to
stay with his family and his golf
clubs in suburban New Jersey, pop
across to New York a couple of times
a week for a show or two, and go
back across the Hudson stumbling
a little under the weekly paycheck.
What with worried sponsors
wondering about the future Of tele-
vision and If there will soon be a
great increase in recorded network
shows, a la Bring Crosby, however,
there isn't q lot of contract signing
going on right now.
Hence. the present hotel tour,
which began with the Mayfower
opening Monday night.
Mr.. Carroll got his first radio spot
after filling in on one show for
James Melton, who had suddenly
become Ill. Both his voice and
physical appearance bear a strong
resemblance to Mr.. Melton's. After
that, came sustaining shows and
jobs as featured male soloist on
sponsored network programs.
Jimmy is young man not i'm
pressed by his press clippings and
not above laughing at the "biograph-
ical material" so dear to a press
agents heart.

In other tests, metals are exposed on racks

Again Pleads For
Race Recognition

Atlanta, Ga--Mrs. Helen Dortch
Longstreet, not satisfied with the
heoric achievement she wrought
for the Negro race and for all hui
mainly when she successfully
fought the white primary bill in
the legislative halls of Georgia, is
continuing her heroic efforts in
behalf of right and fairplay. This
is very clearly evidenced by the
following letter she recently
wrote the editor of the Los An
,geles, California Herald and Ex-
press, one of the largest and most
powerful of the West Coast pa
pers.
Dear Editor:
Permit me to say that millions
of Americans, not only on the Pa
cific Coast, but between the tides
of the two oceans, would appre-
ciate your generous support of
the splendid and untiring efforts
Of Charles D. Wherry of Los An
geles, to have the lives of repre-
sentative Negro leaders, such as
George Washington Carver and
Booker T. Washington, given the
place they have nobly earned in
the annals Of the Republic and on
the movie screen.
