The Polish government has
invited the orchestra, composed
Iof 100 boys and girls from all
over the United States. Senator
Potter said.
He said this would be the first
time an amateur group has trav-

professionals.
Poland has offered to pay food,

I have more influence with the

that point in his career when he:
just about ripe for his first sue

It's been years since he
dreamed up that first Surefire
smash and he's long since for
gotten it. In the meantime, he's
developed his skills and his con-

publishers an6 their tastes and
they've come to accept him as a
writer. He's working with a part
ner-either a composer or lyri-
cist, depending on which func-
ton he fills himself-and they
have just put in a couple of hard
weeks producing about 10 songs,
five of which they figure are
marketable. If they're gifted

be able to bang the piano i'm
