...given charm, with a divine right to use it on king or commoner alike, has Wally. It approaches that of either the Madonna, or Mona Lisa herself. Who shall reproach the abdicated, uncrowned King of all hearts of all nations? For such a face, and such a love, would not any real man abdicate a thousand thrones, and reject a thousand crowns? With her love as his own, might not such a man take her in his arms and bear her away to some palatial, ornately festooned raft, lying on the ever undulating, billowing bosom of the mighty waters...

...Victor) May I Have The Next Romance With You**1/4 by Tommy Dorsey. A pleasantly danceable piece in the customary Dorsey manner, but it seems a shame to waste this good band on such pop tunes.
