"The Tan Ticker Tape...
New York-- The Ravens moved up to No.3 slot on the Sepia Hit Parade over the weekend; the celebrated Dominoes and Nat Cole holding down positions 7 and 2 respectively. The three top tunes of the week: “Sixty Minute Man,” “Too Young” and “Time Takes Care of Everything.” Your N.Y. correspondent predicts that Sarah Vaughan’s “These Things I Offer You” (now sixth position) will move up to commanding place by next week… Arnita Garcia stated for TV showing... Songstress Alberta Hunter scored on the Tex and Jinx McCreary show...Ruth Brown and Willis Jackson a hit at Harlem’s Apollo...Many dance lovers ‘hits’ the ‘numbers’ here last week when winner of Tiny Bradshaw’s cupie doll door prize number (212) came out. Nothing like “the right combination!”
Ida James hints that she may enter the Press Photographers Ball to be crowned “queen of the lensmen” this October… Congaroo Dancers stopped the show on opening nite at Club Harlem in Atlantic City… Bandleader Arnett Cobb’s new book to include several ‘oldies’...Hits of yesteryear mounting up on disc jockey programs. Mr.B’s “Everything I Have is Yours” solid ballad number...Henry Lee Moon, Ellen Tarry, Roi Ottley, Ted Poston and Langston Hughes all writing new books...Bob’s Club Hollywood jam-packed on eve of Fourth of July as Lee “Boot” Marshall, Muriel Nichols and other talented Tan Manhattanites scored… Amanda Randolph soon to be seen in several new motion pictures. Ditto: James Edwards, Lena Horne and Dorothy Dandridge… Artist representative Dick Boone cleaning up on Brooklyn Dodgers wins… If you kept a safe and sane Fourth don’t go berserk now. Be seein’ you!"
