It seems that wedding bells ring very frequent ly in the midst of that band. Did you hear them Sylvester Fields? wer they singing for you really? ffiess Your Truly will be next. Wonder what’s come over all the Cats, all of them failing in love. Eveq Shorty Gray is reforming so h. tells us. That well known iittle dancer ‘Strut’ Whitney, was the master of ceremonies at the Showboat this week. Speaking of dancers, Paul Riv ers wishes it to be known that he has acquired La Verne Weasley as the new partner in his Adajo dance team. Paul just recently re turned from the West. Paul says that Freddie Meers, who enter tained with Walter Barnes was an old partner of his, and he was so glad to see him, that they just had to do a number together when the band played here. Having a new partner calls for a new name, so Paul and I^a Verne now call themselves, La Fate and La Rengo. Holsey Dorsey just couldn’t let his pal, Gregg Williams, get ahead of him, so he bought him self a car too. Now both have a wife and a car! Now what next? Certain Cats around here are getting manicures. Nice too! Far be it from us to wonder why. Mr. J.
