Three weeks later, Britain's Ted Heath takes off for New York with his big, brassy outfit. It has topped the popularity polls in Britain since the end of World War II. For the first time since 1935, big names In the Jazz world have broken through a trade union bar rier in both Britain and the United States, built to protect musicians' jobs from foreign encroachment. Both tours are booked solid. The agents handling Kenton's say they have four times as many offers as the American maestro could till If he played four dates a day.

"But there's a lot we can show them in precision and slick pre sentation." He's already packed his 18 Play ers off to tailors for spanking new royal blue uniforms, with gold crests and crowns on the pockets. We shall open all our concerts with modern British fanfares played on state trumpets hung with red velvet banners," he said. Heath plans to point uo the con trast between his own disciplined combination, and what he calls the carelessness of American bands.
