After Dark
Among Other Things Saved
Was Barnee's Musical Memory

Some days the life of a political
commentator, that of a gadf1y to
the Capital scene, seems to be lived
! in greener pasture. The political
commentator, pundit or clown, at
! least goes to night clubs only when
he wants to and not when he has to.
This is not one of the days, though.
1t is pleasant to sit here, while the
whir of columnar molars is heard
in the land, realizing that there is
not one word to be eaten before we
| go on.
X X X X
You can put the name of Barnee,
the Shoreham Blue Rooms orches-
ira leader, high on the list of those
whose state now is a happy, If sur
prised one. This Is not because
Barnee (rhymes with blarnee) has
been an ardent Truman supporter,
any more than he has been an ar
dent Dewey man. He's the nom
partisan type Having become a
sort of musical edifice, whose per-
manence by now seems somewhat on
a par with that of the National Ar
chives Building, Barnee feels that
any administration Is temporal
thing.
He is prepared to outlast even one
that started in 1882 and shows no
signs Ito the voters if not to the
poll -takers) of being finished. That
this, too, shall pass. whatever this
is, has been his guiding philosophy.
Politically, Barnee is pro people who
go to the Blue Room and he will not
be bludgeoned into any arguments
that might touch sensitive spots.
He Is happy man today, though.
One of the reasons for the Barnee
popularity is his fabulous memory
for the titles of thousands Of favorite
tunes. Cabinet members and clerks,
generals and sergeants, hide tycoons
from Kansas City and shoe sales
men, Southern .politicos and wealthy
lobbyists get the same Barnee treat
ment once they become Blue Room
regulars. They hear that song they
like without asking for it.
| You can imagine the strain a new
administration would put on man
bent upon maintaining reputation
like Barnee's. There'd be thousands
of new faces turning up at the Blue
Room and thousands of new favor
| ite tunes for him to memorize. Bar
nee's memory has just been granted
another four-year reprieve.

Among the other items in the
extensive repertoire Of Kirby Walk
er, pianist-singer now providing the
entertainment at the Cross Roads, is
medley of Fats" Waller tunes
done in Waller style. Mr.. Walker
comes by his knowledge Of the Waller
manner legitimately and, In fact,
probably can say that he recognized
the ability of the late Fats" long
before anyone in the music business
today. It was Mr.. Waller who in
spired Mr.. Walker to take up his
study of the piano.
Kirby first saw and heard Fats"
when he paraded into the auditor
ium of Harlem's p. s. SO with the
rest OF his freshman class and
found young Master Waller, sen
ior, at the piano setting the tempo
for him. (He was impressed enough
to remember that 1t was "Ffniculi,
Finicula" that Fats" was playing
in brisk march time) The Walker
family could afford to send only
Kirby's sister to the piano teacher
at the time, but 1t got its moneys
worth. Sister brought home every

chestra when it was playing at the
old Famous Door in New York. Be-
tween that day and this, incident
ally, Mr.. Walker has done consider
able travelling on mis- way to the
Cross Roads. Among other places,
his tours have taken him to London
Paris, Melbourne and Sidney in
Australia, Edinburg and Glasgow in
Scotland and, quite in1partially. to
Belfast and Dublin.
Mr.. Walker is a composer as well
as a pianist-singer- er-entertainer. His
rendition of his own Hear No Evil,
See No Evil and Shut Up" on the
Arthur Godfrey program awhile
back won him a Columbia recording
contract.

parents, Mr.. and Mrs. w. A.
Schmidt, at 2911 Ezra Avenue,
Februarye1, 1929, with the late
Elder Fred Richert officiating.
To this union four children
have come - Yolanda, Jack,
Loyola and Karen. Yolanda
was graduated from the Zion
Benton Township High School
last Spring; Jack is a senior
this year; and Loyola and Kar-
en- are in the 9Th and 7th
grades, respectively.
Mr.. Robinson is an active
member of the Zion Chamber
of Commerce and furthers the
civic interests of the City. His
hobby is bowling, though he
is generally too busy for much
recreation. In 1915, he and Bill
Davis won the doubles cham
pionship, he rolling a 276 game
which was high for the Zion
boys. They repeated this re-
cord in 1916. 1t may be of in
terest to the citizens of Zion
to know that Sam Robinson,
one of the city's commissioners,
is a brother of Steve.
Mr.. and Mrs. Noah A. Rob-
inson, Steve's parents, were
among the pioneers of Zion.
They purchased a three-acre
tract on west Twenty-sixth
Street and erected 5-room
home thereon. Later they NOV
ed to New Mexico. Upon their
return to Zion, Steve was born;
then, the following Fall, they
went to southern Illinois, be-
cause of the milder climate. Re-
turning again to Zion, they pur-
chased the homestead at 921
Salem Boulevard (Twenty-
fifth Street).
When Steve's wife worked
at the Bakery, she had the dis
tinction of being the speediest
packer on the Bakery force.
Many Of Steve's brothers and
sisters, and other relatives,
have worked at the Zion Bak-
ing Industry.
