...reunion of McKenzie-Condon's Chicagoans-the band organized by Guitarist Eddie Condon and Kazooist Red McKenzie in the 1920s. Among those present: Condon, Saxophonist Bud Freeman, Bass Player Bob Haggart, Drummer Gene Krupa, Trumpeter Jimmy McPartland, Clarinetist Pee Wee Russell, Pianist Joe Sullivan, Trombonist Jack Teagarden. Their enthusiasm has withered little with the years.

In 1938, Mills ran for the House of Representatives. He learned to hunker on the court house steps...
...former Byzantine Regency splendour, little survives; the bunched-up seats of the balcony are basically the same-although decently robed in new chintz ("There was so much to be done," explains Bud Kramer '56, the theatre's manager); and of course the wicker reserved chairs in the front of the balcony have held their own -- though they too are hidden under a fresh coat of white paint; and even the new owners, Brian Halliday and Sy Harberg, have not yet been able to clear the old vaudeville dressing room under the stage of a hallowed rotogravure print labelled (boldly) "President...
