...mainstream of Broadway music what Bacharach is to that mainstream now, I'd settle on Harold Arlen. Arlen too had a popular bent, wrote songs consciously and expressly for Negro singers, was by nature incapable of the straight, bright, terribly Broadway, Broadway tunes of which any second-rank Cole Porter creation is the perfect example, and on all these counts had to be regarded as an organism slightly foreign to the theatre (Mr. Arlen will of course forgive the laws of parallelism for driving him into the past tense).

Some 400 people--holders of second-rank civil service offices, boisterous lady lawyers ("when Lawheeze is in, I think I'll ask her if I can be Police Commissioner"), and small-time real estate men--danced jigs, bought drinks, and ate too-sweet brownies. It was their night. Mrs. Hicks came in first, 13,000 ahead...
