Dealing with hypnotism in the O.P.M. and featuring a "Star Spangled Banner" chorus of 16, a pastoral ballet, and a boogie woogie stomp, the show will leave for Fort Devens after its opening at the club, and Cawley may see Whitemore play the role the draft board didn't think he fitted...
...most exciting improvisations, from the standpoint of tone, melodic ideas, or what you will, of any white man, and last night, on numbers like "Lover Come Back to Be" and "Night and Day," supported by what sounded like a nice jazz band, I heard the Berigan of "King Porter Stomp" and "Song of India" all over again. . . .

Nobody is a swell pop tune sung by Helen Forest, who seems to be more and more influenced by Billie Holiday. The arrangement is very good; ideal for dancing.
