Eeksfine-isms, New and Old
BY J. Henry Randall

Eek sfine-isms, New and Old
An album of Oldies and two
new singles make up the newest
wax released on Billy Eckstine,
our favorite male vocalist who is
currently readying for his film
debut in a MGM's forthcoming
technicolor musical, Skirts
Alloy"
The album, entitled BILLY
Eckstine Favorites," might be
looked upon as a sequel to his
Songs by Billy Eckstine" re-
leased last year. Issued only at
two speeds, the As and 1914 rpm,
the album boasts eight sides
which are really the prime favor
ties Of Eckstine fans, for all have
placed among the most popular of
all record releases.
Lead-off item in the album is
the heavily Easternized Caravan,
one of the Eckstine versions which
still retains all of its fine appeal
Then there are other evergreen
standards such as I'm Failing For
You, Blue Moon, Somehow, Fool
That I Am, My Foolish Heart.
Everything 1 Have Is Yours, and
Bewildered. Singly they are great
together they provide an I'M
paralleled musical treat.
The singles by Eckstine are not
to be lightly CLOSED over, for the
same warmth of feeling, express
siveness and intonation heard on
his album sides are in evidence
here also. One of the singles
pairs an exotic tango beat with
our boys most romantic vocal
weavings, I'm A Fool To Want
You. Setting the mood instru-
mentally is the Russ Case crew of
musicians. Flip is hit-bound
ballad, Love Me, which has Pete
Rugolo fronting the ork.
The other single uses some
what of the same formula, an ex-
otto piece, Pandora. from the
Forthcoming MGM color pic Pan
dora and the Flying Dutchman. :"
and a toothsome romantic ballad,
Wonder Why, also a MGM color
pic steal from "Rich, Young and

Will Be Surveyed

The District is preparing to be-
gin a survey for possible enlarge
ment of the old Central Library

The library maintains adminis-
trative offices, little bindery, pro-
cesslng departments and book
storage there.
Early last year, Senator Hill.

lit would not be better to sell the
structure to the United States and
build on new site.
Library officials were interested.
but suggested that feasibility Of
adding to the old library on
Mount Vernon place should be
explored before an attempt to find
another location and to obtain
money for a new building.
Peterson Describes Plans.
Harry N. Peterson, District lie
brarian, said he believed the build
ing could be extended by eliminate
ing the present facade and build
ing forward and also adding to
the rear.
The present building has about
