LISTENING

By Danny Raskin

YEARS BACK, Sam Blender
the super-market man w as
known as "The bagel man of the
East Side" . . . That was in New
York, and his friends number
many of the greatest names in
show business . . . When they
come to town its memory time
for confabs of the good old days
at Muskin's Confectionery . . .
Went to Hebrew school with Jan
Pierce then Pincus Pearlman . . .
Morris Cohen, mayor of Pitts-
burgh's and Rabbi Morris Adler
were also in the classes ... hying
Rapper (then Rappaport) the top
technical advisor at Warren Bros.
refers to little Sammy as "The
guy who sleeps in a can of short-
ening!" . . . The last time the
Ritz Bros. were here, they talk-
ed about how Sam would sit and
watch them sell knishes in Coney
island . . . Harry argued- he was
the one who made the delicacies
while the others did the selling
. .. The boys almost wrecked the
12th St. eatery they were in!
* * *
THE "HALF TRACK" in which
Morry Noble and two buddies
found themselves behind German
lines was considered lost in ac-
tion . . . until they finally rode
into camp two weeks later with
sniper wounds, a jammed ma-
chine gun and 150 prisoners . . .
The Krauts gave up rather than
fight the battered and lonely
tank . . . Morry is back in civies
and to his well-known tasks with
the p. a. systems and voice and
commercial recording outfits.
* * *
IT'S PAST the gossip stage
about Al Sparage and Shirley
Baron . . . She's the daughter of
South Haven's night-club • prexy
. .. The role of Cupid was aptly
played by Carole Harris, local
dancer then appearing • at the
spot . • . If all goes well, the
wedding should be around next
June. -
* *•*
THE SECOND in their series
of dances is set by the Julius
Rosenwald Post of American Le-
gion for Dec. 16, in the Starlit
Room of Hotel Webster Hall .. •
Talented Mickey Wolfe and his
fine band of rhythm renders will
be on hand again .. . and that's
good news . . . Bill Cohen is
chairmaning these affairs.
* *
HA HA DEPT. . .. The wise
guy who thought a traffic ticket
was just another way for the
cops to say hello has been edu-
cated . . . Conveniently "forgot"
about the ducats . . . until eight
had accumulated . . . His mem-
ory was revived by a couple of
"the boys" . . . and he's in jail
now . . . His so-called influential
friends can't even get him out
on bail!
* * *
WE CAN at least boast of one
thing in common with the great
Paul Robeson . . . Mel Shuman•is
one our favorite portrait photogs,
also . Glad to hear that Mel's
new studio has opened on Lin-
wood near Davison . . . Before
going into service, he worked
with a great many world-famed
artists, and some of his known
shots of the Negro singer are
with Robeson's son at Princeton
U . • . Not too few famous peo-
ple have sat for his "Individually
yours" portraits.
* * *
WE BOW with pride to Mrs.
A. Winokur, gold star mother of
Lt. Jack Winokur . . . Though a
son had been taken from her
and her heart has bled with
grief, she became the away-
from-home mother of many oth-
ers . . . Over 350 boys, Jew and
Gentile, have sat to dinner in
her home. .. She is not too well
a woman, but her noble efforts
have made many a lonely guy
happy . . . and they remember
... Like last Mother's Day, when

cific. He has been honorably dis-
charged and resides at 2205 W.

flowers galore came from over-
seas to "Another Mom."

WHOEVER REMOVED the
lizard: wallet from Mary Bob-
bin's purse at a. local dance re-
cently, should - know that the
Sentiment attached to it is far
beyond value . . . If it can be re-
turned, it will bring much hap-
piness .
As far as gals leaving their
bags alone, however, we again
say, a woman's purse never gets
old enough to take care of itself!

* * *

ONCE HE GOT overseas, the
Army didn't lose much time with
ad man, Jerry Brasch . . . Four
days after arriving on the far
shore, he was in the Battle of the
Bulge . . . Abe's brother has been
discharged after 23 months of
khaki and 16 across the water.
* * *
THE CARETAKER of that
apartment who chooses to fly
Our Flag in front should learn
the code first . . . Not lowering
it at sundown and allowing it to
withstand wind and rain is a dis-
honorable act! . . . Flying our
Stars and Stripes should be as
sacred to others as it was to the
fellows who fought for it!

THE ULTRA-MODERN build-
ing put up by Hudson dealers
Herman and Barney Teal out
Gratiot way, is the absolute last
thing .. . A new angle for cus-
tomers waiting for their car to be
serviced are the facilities for a
hot shower.
* * *
SEVEN YEARS AGO, the
Bialistocker Juniors had 500
members .. . That was too long
ago in a lot of lives, particularly
Sylvia Goldberg who is making
plans for a reunion . . . But Syl-
via won't be able to have them
all together. . . . Many are
overseas . . . and won't be com-
ing back, because the group's
record in this war has been
among the greatest, including the
toll of lives lost.
