Dr. John Farquhar, director of Stanford Medical Center's research in disease prevention program, notes that "one of the pitfalls is people not seeking medical attention when they should."

...like the old Teddy Wilson-Billie Holiday Brunswick records--without Teddy and Billie. Best of all, for me, was the consistently fine trumpet of Frankie Newton, who later played at a slightly phenomenal cocktail party thrown in Lowell C-33 by Kenny Berol--duets with Johnny Fields (string base) and an empty punch bowl with the resultant roomful of loaded guests.
