I just can't take it out here any more.” ONE EVENING not long ago, while grabbing a sandwich during a rehearsal break, Charlie picked up a paper and an item caught his attention: A young woman had com mitted suicide by throwing herself out of the window of a midtown apartment house. On the spur of mood and moment, the musician hopped a taxi and went around to the address men tioned. “I understand you’ve got a vacancy,” he said to the superin tendent. “and it's worth a couple of hundred to me if I can have first crack at it.” The super took him up in the elevator and showed him the apart ment—f our cheerfullj - furnished rooms.
