...DONALDSON: MR. SHING-A-LING (Blue Note). Following the success of his Alligator Bogaloo, Donaldson now applies his jazz alto, accompanied by trumpet, organ, guitar and drums, to such recent familiars as The Shadow of Your Smile and Ode to Billie Joe. Since he never wanders far from the melody on these tunes, those who get lost easily in jazz improvisation need not fear for their direction. More venturesome listeners may feel that Donaldson has settled for a too-safe format...

"I know where three negatives of Scarface are," he will say with a mysterious smile, or "I think I can lay my hands on most of Salvation Hunters."

She first drew U.S. viewers' notice as Sidney Poitier's admiring...

She is patronizing me and I, because I want to please, allow her to: She has reversed the color roles and now I am the one who smiles and submits. She continues, oblivious: "You really don't know what it's like to be black. You. couldn't stand it. You couldn't stand it for a week." Now she has something I can't have because I'm the wrong color--the strength that comes from being Negro in America...
