With Sally Fields
Heavens, thoughts keep revolv-
ing in my mind like a ball of wool
in a cat's stomach and I can't
seem togather them together.
What a pitiful waste of time.
Here I am listening to the silence,
thinking it's nice and quiet for a
change, I should be able to knock
this out in no
time but in-
stead I hear
the roar of
planes, think of
the bright
lights of the
"Big City,"
wonder what
time the 4 o'-
clock plane will
reach LaGuard-
Sally Fields la Field and
that in all probability it will take
longer to get from the field to
Flatbush than it did to fly from
Detroit to New York and pictur-
ing how elated Rene and Tanta
and Uncle will be to see Artie—
Oh, gosh, there I go again. I al.
most forgot that the boss said I
was not to mention any member
of my family in my column 'count
of there are some people that
were bored with the idea. Can I
help it if my offspring's activities
are still of all importance to me?
Funny kind of a mother I am,
eh, what?
•
There, now that I've sort of un-
raveled the ball of wool, and shoved
it to a far corner of my meager
little mind, maybe I can go on
from here . . . and so—
First big news I must tell you
is that Arthur Leo Simpkins, the
ebony-hued lad with the powerful
voice who sings Eli Ell and other
tunes in a voice you're bound to
remember Is appearing by special
arrangement for one week only
(and he opened Thursday) at the
Downtown Theatre. If you've
missed hearing him at the Bow-
ery by all means be sure to catch
him at the Downtown . . . He
sings Ell Eli In Hebrew and Yid-
dish, of course, and If he's great
in a nite club you can bet your
bottom dollar that the acoustics
in a theatre make it super. I saw
"How Deep Are the Roots" last
Saturday and it makes me think
that Simpkins must be thinking
of the struggles and problems of
his people which makes it pos-
sible for him to put such depth
and feeling in his rendition of Eli-
Eli. It is not just an act. It is a
reality. Besides Arthur Lee there
Is a huge additional stage and
screen show as well.
•
Attention Frank Barbaro! Talk-
ing about Arthur Lee Simpkins
reminds me to tell you about a
young lady who dropped into the
office the other day. She and a
party of friends didn't know
where to go or what to do last
Sunday on account of Latin
Quarter, Lee 'n' Eddie's ("Yiska-
dol v' Yiskadosh") were closed
when she remembered reading In
my column my report on what a
terrific job Arthur Lee Simpkins
was doing. She persuaded her
friends that here and now was a
chance to see if yours truly re-
ported correctly and so delighted
was Marian Catelman (who inci-
dentally originally hails from
Council Bluffs, Ioway and is now
with the War Dept, (Arsenal) and
residing or should I say living—
lucky dog—at the Belcrest) that
she simply had to call and tell
me about it...When Barbaro
brings a headliner in that he
raves about you can be pretty
sure its worth the rave.

Dropped into Harper Hospital to
see how our pal Mary Siegel is
getting along. Such an array of
flowers! The room was just lined
with them and they were beauti-
ful. Our Mary. queenly sprawled
and relaxed (what a few days rest
will do even If you have to get
sick to get it, God forbid) in her
uneanopied bed was the picture of
luxurious contentment. And she
looks swell, too, despite the fact
that some "chiseling" was done
by the medics...Mary is home
now resting up between "cuts"
for a couple of weeks. She has to
go back then. Cheer up pal, every-
things "gonna be awl right"...
And talking about Mary reminds
me of the Nathanson big news.
It's that brother Dave Nathanson
(San Francisco) met a femme...
'twas love at first sight (and at
his age and with his many and
varied experiences Dave ought to
know "love at first sight" when it
hits him) and he finally got the
noose around his neck...That's
good going Mrs. Dave...Either
you hall from a cattle country and
have learned how to handle a
lasso or you're just a good gal and
I'm inclined to think it's the lat-
ter. Anyway, here's luck and may
it all be good.
•
More hospital news (I mite as
well give it to you all at one time)
Al Bernstein (Dave Garfield's son-
in-law) at Harper trying to make
up his mind whether he's better
off with or without his appendix.
Al decided that he'll keep It for
a bit longer and is home, too,
waiting for the new image which
is practically on the door-step...
Ralph Raskin just home after
about a week's lolling around at
the Deaconess...Edythe is up
North and didn't know about
hubby's indisposition 'til he got
home... Doctor's orders stay home,
relax and rest. Seems like that's a
universal remedy, eh what?
•
Worth hearing—Jackie Heller at
the Top Hat Ben Kehoe at the
new Satire Lounge Bar (you
should see the dancing goat in the
murals—she's or is it a he—is
really something to look at)...The
Bob Stevenson Trio at the Wedge-
wood Room...Frank Gegen and
his crew at the Wonder Bar.
•
Fate? Love? Yes, I guess there
are such things...Eugene Buch-
alter (Chicago) served overseas in
England... Boy meets girl... she
was Addle Popkin (London, Eng-
land)...War over...red-tape over-
come...girl comes to the States
to marry boy...if this hadn't a
Detroit angle 'twouldn't have
been a story...Result they were
wedded in July!..Adelle is the
grandniece of Abram Hartstein
(that makes her a grand-cousin
to Jack and Ann)... Eugene is a
cousin of Sylvia Gottisman, a
nephew of Molly Katser and a
grandson of the Einstandig's...
Parties galore? What do you
think?

Paddy Cliff, popular tenor, who
sung his way into the ringsiders'
hearts in previous engagements,
headlines the huge, new Bowery
show. With his
robust voice

so includes sev-

turns this week from his vaca-
tion, to resume his laugh-getting
antics which have made him a
Detroit favorite. A lengthy list of
satellites are in the supporting
show, including the Sen Wens,
unusual Chinese dance team with
colorful exotic costumes; Bill and
Irene Burns and their bird cir-
cus; a clever act featuring the ex-
pertly trained birds; hand bal-

numbers to his routine, namely

A new number, "Street Scene," is

featuring Pat Halliday. It's danced
in stylized ballet form and breaks
into jive. The costumes are mas-

ecuted by Carlyle. Music for the
shows and dancing' is expertly
presented by Ben Young and his
orchestra.

To the victors come the spoils..
And to the men at the Detroit
division of the Crown Life In-
surance Co., because they've
scored the highest of all the
branches In sales (No wonder,
with A. J. Blumenau and Seymour
Cohn steering the reins) and I
mean of the entire U. S. territory
and this is their first year in busi-
ness here, too, with Crown...
