Sarah Vaughn, whose climb to
stardom has been gathering mo
mentum for several years, will be
a feature in the "Biggest Show
of '52."

- Miss Vaughn, who will share
the spotlights with Nat "King"
Cole and Stan Kenton, has won
every major popularity poll of the
past year as the nation's No. 1
female vocalist. These polls were
conducted by such publications as
"Down Beat," "Metronome,'- "Or
chestra World," and "Esquire"
from which she won the Esquire
New Star Award in 1947.
Her recording of "The Lord's
Prayer
girl edged timidly out on the
stage of the Apollo Theatre in
Harlem to sing in the amateur
night, which has produced such
great song stylists as Ella Fitz
gerald, Billy Eckstine and others.
So nervous she forgot to plant
the traditional kiss on the lucky
"Wishing Tree" she unleashed for
the first time in public what was
to become the most talked about
"musician's voice" since the pass
ing of the legendary Bessie Smith,
After winning this contest she
sang with Billy Eckstine's band,
Carnegie Hall, and numerous
eastern night club spots. Sarah
struck out on her own for two
years, highlighting throughout the
country.
Miss Vaughn will be best re
membered for her hit records such
as "September Song," "Time after
Time," and "Lover Man."

strictly a volunteer job.
Bob got interested in the work
at the hospital a year ago when
he volunteered to run the movie
projector for the patients. His
father formerly operated a
theater and no he knew the
fundamentals of the job. With a
little brushing up he was ready
to help his father, who was also
a volunteer worker and later to
take over himself.
The disc jockey job started in
March. It comes on from 3:45-4:30
p.m. every Tuesday afternoon over
one of the three channels into
which hospital patients may plug
their headphones.
The selection of new records is
not very complete. Bob reports.
Most of the records played are of
the "Rhapsody In Blue," or "Star
