SANDER'S ‘GANG’ WILL VISIT

Band to Play One Night at

Indiana Roof

Famous Band Leader Almost Became Ball Player in His Youth.

One afternoon some years ago a young left-handed pitcher in the Kansas City Athletic Club League named Joe Sanders walked out to the mound and proceeded to do the practically impossible by striking out 27 batters in a regulation nine-

inning game. This feat brought a drove of major league scouts down upon young Mr. Sanders, but he refused them all. He wanted to play the piano. Every one knows Joe Sanders today as an orchestra leader, and he is scheduled to bring his popular band to the Indiana Roof for a one night stand next Sunday night. But one reminder of his baseball days does cling to him, and that is the nickname, “the ole left-hander,” an identifying phrase familiar to many radio listeners. Another band member known to local dance enthusiasts is Jack Cathcart, who was playing in an Indiana University orchestra when Mr. Sanders picked him up. Jack plays trumpet, sings and serves as one of the band’s five arrangers. These five men are “absolute | monarch” of each tune given them | for arranging, according to their leader. “The ole left-hander” originated the radio club idea, and founded a number of them. These include the Insomnia Club, Knights and Ladies of the Bath, the Nutty Club, Night Riders, Pitchfork Club and the Midnight Flyers, formed during a re-

cent engagement at the Blackhawk |

Restaurant in Chicago. Other Sanders innovations include the reading of telegrams and announcing guests over the radio, and the use of a hand microphone in playing the piano. Barbara Parks and Jack Swi‘t are to be the featured singers with Mr. Sanders and his Nighthawks, who will play from 9 o'clock until 1 a. m. on Sunday night.

Like to Hear.

John McCormack, like many other noted artists, believes in pleas-

ing the public that pays the piper.

The popular lyric tenor, who is to be the Indianapolis Concert

Guild's second attraction at Cadle

Tabernacle Dec. 13, expressed the

belief that popular ballads not only please but benefit the general

muscial taste. “If by singing one or two popular tunes I can send somebody away happy, I'd rather .do that than sing a hundred ‘highbrow’ songs and bore him,” Mr. McCormack said in a recent interview released today by the Concert Guild office.

“You must sing what the people want you to sing—all the people— and it is only by singing the popular songs first that you are likely to engage their interest for other things.”

The singer makes no pretense of |

The disease is transmitted through breaks in the skin, it was said. Lacerated wounds, scratches from bushes, thorns, trees and wire should be cleaned and protected from contamination until a physician is visited, the bulletin warned. Sprains of joints should be examined and hunters should use extreme care in drinking water where there is any doubt about the nature of the supply, it concluded.
