The announcement ended a 14vear struggle for Powell, who got a crooner role every time he asked for a straight part, During those years, he introduced more than 75 {song hits and made much love to countless wide-eyed heroines. | “And then I got mad,” he said. “I quit the studio that couldn't See {me as anything but a crooner and | started: out on my own.” Powell started his no - crooning strike in earnest last year when he talked R.
