Benny Goodman had the trio, quartet, and sextet; Artie Shaw had the Gramercy Five; Tommy Dorsey had the Clambake Seven; Woody Herman had the Woodchoppers; Chick Webb had the Little Chicks, etc. The Bob Cats were Bob Crosby's band within a band.

They were the most natural of all, for the big Crosby band BY SHEILA JOHN DALY EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND The Old Vic's "Macbeth" is a bloody, brawny, fortissimo brawl, staged by Michael with "Paul Pncrorc 9nH Ann TVirlH oe ttia ihona and his lady. Being literal minded, it makes crude sense. Thornton Wilder's "The Matchmaker" is-a scrambled, scattered, flyaway farce, full of loose ends, moralizing asides, and fascinating people. Being rich of heart, it makes endearing nonsense. "I want to be alone" is a statement often echoed by teen-aged fellows and girls who'd like a little privacy for solitary handholding or just quiet conversation.

Take the story this girl has to tell, for instance: "Jack and I have been dat ing for three months, but we was a swinging, rocking Dixieland powerhouse, and all of its men were outstanding soloists and accomplished improvisers. In fact these men were so expert that the build-, ing of the Bob Cats was as simple as pointing a finger at the rhythm section, a trumpeter, a trombonist, a clarinetist, and tenor saxophonist, Eddie Miller. They took' it from there, and how well they took it is admirably shown in the new Decca 12 inch LP, Bob Crosby's Bob Cats." always seem to have trouble being alone together. All the I 1 K'ih I hi Ji i -J lie's glows with beauty and wit. Arthur Hill and Alec Mc-Cowen as the clerks, Patrick McAlinney as the toper, Rosamund Greenwood as the pixie that tiny, pointed, open-f or-en-chantment face! these are indelible in a particularly fortunate cast.

hangouts are crowded with fellows and girls we know, the dance halls are jammed, parties mm MAX Bob Cmbv Comparatively, the "Macbeth performance is second string. No doubt it has its sturdy values in the Old Vic's five year plan of first folio productions, but for- all its kilts and pipers it lacks penetration in depth of Shakespeare's Scottish scene. Call it the production pendulum's far are noisy and hectic and we just never seem to have a chance really to talk. "We don't like to go to lonely spots to park, because it's embarrassing when the police patrol cars drive' by and flash their spotlights into parked cars. Recently we've been going home early and parking in front of my house, but my parents say this looks bad to the neighbors.

The strange thing is we're not looking for a place to neck. Jack is a very serious fellow, and likes to talk to me about his plans for the future. We just aren't the mushy type; he never even kisses me until he delivers me to the doorstep. It doesn't seem much to ask to find a quiet spot to be together, but so far we haven't had any luck.

And wrhy I clung to the Lyceum to the last Wilder afterthought, tho, unable to check what he has so gaily set in motion, he keeps on telling what long ago you knew.

I missed the play when as "The Merchant of Yonkers it failed in New York some years ago. Of course it would fallnow, probably, too. So it is doubly a festival luxury in this cosy little playhouse, enticingly decked in period aritasy by Tanya Moiseiwitsch, staged with affectionate drollery by Tyrone Guthrie, and warmly played by a hand-picked cast peaked by the brittle calculations of Ruth Gordon and the glowing exuberance of Eileen Herlie. Mr. Wilder is all for keeping in circulation such things as people, money, and warm hearts.

So his matchmaker, a widow who abruptly decided "to rejoin the human race," is trying to do the same for that miserly curmudgeon, the merchant of Yonkers, whose pomposity has mounted with his bank account. Dangling as elusive bait a pretty milliner, she intends, on the rebound, to marry him herself. They all land in New York, along with his rebellious, underpaid clerks, adventure bound, a badgered jiiece, a sentimental aunt, and assorted characters from unusual known, tho Ralph Richardson's failure in the title role des' troyed it.

Miss Todd, with flam There are those who claim jazz must be played by a jazz band, that as soon as the basic New Orleans setup of six to eight men is expanded the arranger takes over and the jazz leaks out at the seams. In' this case we don't have to enter the argument, for all the jazz in the album is played by a jazz band.

And, to put it as clearly as possible, all the jazz is good! There is something else, too. Bunk Johnson's basic conception of jazz was that it is dance music and that a jazz band should play for dancing. The Bob Cats followed that line to the letter. With the exception of an outright production number like The Big Noise from Winnetka," you can dance as easily to each selection in the LP as you can to. the music of, say, Guy Lombardo, Tommy Dorsey, or Glenn Miller.

This, despite" tough competition, is the best Crosby album ever issued, and among the very finest of all the Dixieland albums. The re-issues include "Jazz Me Blues," "'Slow Mood," "Do You Ever Think of Me?" "Big Foot Jump," "March of the Bob Cats, "Can't We Be Friends?" "All By Myself," and "The Big Crash from China." Among the players are Irving Fazola, Yank Lawson, Billy Butter-field, Bob Haggart, Ray Bauduc, Matty Matlock, Warren Smith, and marvelous Eddie Miller. Quality, for Decca anyhow, is surprisingly good, and the album itself is most attractively presented. ANOTHER splendid Decca 20th anniversary release is the 12 inch LP, Ella Sings in a Mellow Mood." Nowhere recently has Ella Fitzgerald quite so thoroly proved that she is without peer in the artistic singing of popular music as she has here. Her work thruout the album is absolutely superb.

Sometimes you gasp in astonishment at her fabulous ease of voice control, her warm, wonderful way with lyrics, her clean, true tone. Fortunately her choice of songs was completely in line with her magnificent singing, as titles like "People Will Say We're in Love," "Please Be Kind," "Stardust," "You Leave Me Breathless," and "Nice Work If You Can Get It "will clearly indicate. Unfortunately, the background by only Pianist Ellis Larkins leaves much to be desired. He merely fills in behind Miss Fitzgerald with unimaginative, modern chords. He seldom creates.

Confusion reigns, the merchant melts and happy endings sprout right down to the footlights, where they speak up, wishing you the same. As a play, it could drive a purist batty. As an affectionate look at the human race, it is something to wrap up and take home.
