Fearing the peace of his home be disrupted, he thoroughly disapproves of Junior having an orchestra, or for that matter, anything to do with music. This makes a “madhouse” but one of melody, with Junior having secret orchestra rehearsals at his home in the hope that the Stanley Swingsters will be asked to play at a Society Debut of the Austin twins. Grandma, sister, Gladys all help make this an evening of fun, frolic, music and comedy. COMPLIMENTS OF NU-WAY CLEANERS ¥ CECIL BLACKWELDER Page Twenty-four
