...leading editorial last week, the ultrarespectable American Journal of Surgery ran an "enthusiastic" discussion of "Dog Surgery and Self Development" by Drs. Clyde Merideth Jr. and Thomas Peck Butcher of Emporia, Kans. Small-town surgeons, said they, with little chance to show their versatility, can keep in trim by practicing on dogs.

...action is marvelous--but nothing much else comes out . . . "I Can't Get Started" by the same band is much better, with Hampden playing some of the best vibes he has in years. Incidentally Dame Rumor has it that Chu Berry, Cozy Cole (both of Calloway's band), and Clyde Hart are going to be with Hampden in his new outfit...
