...women in Salem, two centuries ago, were burned for witchcraft far less amazing. . . ." Cannot your magazine help to put the quietus on this old lie, which crops up periodically? No witches were ever burned in New England: a number were hanged and one was pressed to death-a record of which we are not proud, but at least we are not guilty of the more cruel accusation...
...back on a career in the theatre that would be spectacular in a man of 100. Kaufman's current collaboration with Moss Hart, The Man Who Came to Dinner (TIME, Oct. 30), is one of the biggest smash hits of the last ten years. Kaufman's unequaled record: at least one show on Broadway every year since 1921. Fifteen of those shows Burns Mantle has included in various annual volumes of the Best Plays. One of them (You Can't Take It With You) had the fifth longest run (837 performances) in the history of Broadway...

We've said this for two years now, predicting that he would go to the top very shortly, and Jimmy has saved our face by breaking every record in sight with the most disgusting regularity for the past nine months.

The "Colonel" has in addition a swell sense of humor that makes him one of the band's chief assets...
...from the same North Carolina school that Hal Kemp did. In fact, he did arrangements for Kemp for a while, but found that the Goodman-Basic style was more to his liking, and so he started a band on this idea. Results are not bad, the band's first record (Vocalion) "Tea for Two" being well arranged, with some decent solos...
