Personnel office fifth floor retail store Winnipeg demands an this is one of a series of article on Arew York City by Frank to free press movie and dram tic critic. By Frank Morriss new York by my mind is Lull of a collection of ready made theme songs of new York. Walk through Tim Square and you have me hum Mirin the Lullaby of Ero Adwa turn onto 42nd Street and whistling the tune by that Nam yesterday i found myself Watt ing along 32th Street and Darne if the 12th Street rag did dance in my head. Strolling along fifth Avenue its Irvin Berlin s easter Parade. Of the Avenue fifth Avenue Etc t s funny too How these popu Lar tunes which have becom part of our National song consciousness sound exactly like the places they sing about. Broadway is Bawdy and Bustle and like the lady in the song does t get to sleep until Early j the morning. Forty second Street jiggy and Doggy fifth Avenue i stately and sedate. The people o Broadway looked mussed an warm in the humidity which ranging around 85. I swear that you could grub a person and wring them out the Way you would a wet cloth. The people on 42nd Street seem to be looking for bar gains in cheap costume jewelry or else going into a show which advertises a picture of dubious morality. The Pic Ture show billboards show people in various stages of undress in rapturous embraces embraces. I a actually saw a Man sitting in doorway on 45th Street drinking Down a 26-ounce bottle of whisker without stopping for breath. Two minutes later he passed out cold and the cops came and got him you just have to name your sigh in new York and there it is the contrasts of Richness and poverty Are As Stark As a greek drama. For instance there was the Man saw with his head Down Between his legs As he sat on the Steps of an Empl oiment office. His clothes were nothing but rags he had on one Brown shoe and one Black and wore no socks. If some discerning photographer had come along at that moment he could have a alight the picture of the year. Hung in some gallery it could have epitomized despair and poverty. In about three minutes Yon could walk Over to fifth ave nue and see the society ladies out shopping for Diamond rings. I know you won t believe it but i saw a woman who had dyed her dog to match her hair. It might have been vice versa. Just run a color picture of the lady with the dog alongside a picture of the Man on the employment office Steps and you could have any conservative minded Audi ence screaming Down with i m wandering about a bit to Day but i have a notebook with me and i just Amble along and Jot things Down. Then i sit Down at the typewriter look at the notes and you get this Hodge podge. For instance a lady told me that new yorkers think they re hard boiled but that they re As soft boiled As a half minute egg. Stand on the Corner of 45th Street and Broadway burst into tears and somebody will take up a collection. It sounds like an idea. I saw a dress in a window on fifth Avenue and it would look wonderful on Pat my wife. It costs just How hard would i have to cry to bring 599.95 into the collection plate clothes Don t make the Man or woman As the huge outdoor Dis play which takes up a whole Block Between 45th and 44th streets on Broadway demonstrates on 44th Street stands a Gigantic nude Man and on 45th Street stands an equally Gigantic nude woman. They Are separated by a Waterfall which is about As big As Niagara and you can hear the splash even through the noise of traffic. The sign advertises clothes but just what a pair o Mother nude statues mean in rela lion to clothing advertisements Don t know. The Only thing this Gigantic and lady beside Rushing is an amplifier system through which they could play Good old song. By a Waterfall i m calling i forgot to mention that at night the lady and gentleman Are More modest. Then they Are discreetly and strategically draped in Neon lights. I be seen a few celebrities Franchot tone and Roland Young to mention two. During the inter Mission of death of a Salesman try companion pointed out a Nice looking elderly gentleman talking to a Nice looking elderly lady. That s Thomas i was told. Nobody tried to get his Auto graph but when Frank Sinatra Kelly Vera Elien and Ann Liller get Here next week they la be mobbed.
