...Lombardo, Donald Duck, and Annabella combine to make this week's show at Keith's the best we have seen in lo! these many moons. The Royal Canadians are the big attraction, and rightly so. Giving generously of their wares, they occupy a very pleasant hour with some fifteen numbers including "Ten Pretty Girls," "Whistle While You Work," and "Tippy Tin." Morover, they add finishing touches to the vaudeville numbers, and, except when they enter the vocal realm, go over with a resounding bang.

...records out: the Andrews Sisters', which had already sold 10,000 copies, and Glen Gray's. Brunswick had released a Russ Morgan version, and at Manhattan's Paramount Theatre the crowd called for four encores the first time Morgan played it.

To get the General safely out of Mexico, he offered him the choice of a foreign diplomatic post. "I have no interest in foreign affairs," retorted Cedillo. "I find conditions in Mexico much more interesting...

Once Mexicans went to church on Sunday. Now they parade the streets, cheer speeches by their labor leaders. One fine Sunday recently, 25,000 CTMists (Confederation of Mexican Workers) assembled before the National Palace in the capital to hear their labor boss, large-eared, dapper Vincente Lombardo Toledano, CTM Secretary General. Shouting, waving his arms, Orator Toledano hurled imprecations at the enemies of labor. The Mexicanos were enthusiastic, but not enough to suit Toledano. Dramatically pausing, the fiery-eyed labor leader leaned forward on the rostrum to grip his listeners once more. He was going to tell them something...
