Its aim is an important one. When
Kenneth Watt, who produces and di
rects it, was asked to make up “ Mu
sical Americana,” he had three
things to remember. Primarily, he
was to give American music to his
audiences. He was to try to please
all musical tastes; to win over those
who look down on popular music,
and inspire a sharper appreciation
of serious music in those who think
they can’t understand it. And he

Stuart Erwin's mother cut his hair
for the first time in 23 years just
the other day. Erwin started work
as the milkman in Sol Lesser’s "Our
Town.” He plays the milkman.
“ I want you with a home-made
haircut," Director Sam Wood told
him. “ You know, one of those rag
ged mush bowl ones.”
So Stuart Erwin went home and
talked tt over with hia mother. She
whipped out a pair of scissors, put
a towel around his neck, and went
to work.

The trained nurses of America
have felt that some Hollywood pro
ducers had a lot to learn about
nurses, judging by some of the pic
tures in which they have appeared.
So they have formed a committee to
judge all moving pictures having
nurse roles.

Jerry Thomas was born In New
Haven. Conn., in 1825. His parents,
Mr. and Mrs. William Daniel Thom
as, sent him to college so he could
be a preacher. But, at the age of
20, he quit school and left parental
influence to carry on an experiment
to determine whether or not college
men could imbibe alcoholic liquors
in unlimited quantities. His conclu
sions were in the negative but he
stayed close to the subject he loved
by becoming principal bartender in
a New Haven saloon.
In later years he became head
bartender at the famous El Dorado
in San Francisco where he invented
the Blue Blazer, then he went to St.
Louis where he invented the Tom
and Jerry. He tended bar all over
the United States, Central America
and parts of Europe, startling the
Europeans especially with his $4,000
worth of silver bar utensils and his
unlimited repertoire of mixed drinks.
