NEW YORK — Wi’h so many
bands breaking up these days, it is
enlighlenuiK to note an annonnee-
MU'iit by Milton Ebbis, Cout B:isie's
pei'Minal miinuger. that the Basie
band is booked solidly ihroiigl
January. 1947.
Includfxl among the ( ounl's book
come thei iluleiils. I believe music
to be the tic to bind all men 10
peace and friendship.
Cool-headed Carter has ground
fur Ids visions. He lias spent many
y ea. A in Europe and for a wiisle
was chief arranger fur the Briliali
Biojdeasling Cuiopialioii in Lon-
uuii. He came home ;n i938 when
the country was threatened with
war.
All oiiginul Harlem lad, Benny
began music at 12 fia.m hii mother.
He sold papeis and delivered laun-
uiy allvr .school, saving enough
money to buy his first instrument -
.1 trumpet —then a sux. Today. Ben
ny Carter, tJiree years from forty, is
coi idered “amuziiig" in his lield
and masters the trumpet, sax, clari-
net and piaiiu besides being one ol
itie best .irraiiger in the country.
Out in Hollywood, he scored music
lor louny prKiuctions including
•Sioiiny Weallier ’ and his latest
Here Come The Waves.
Broadminded Benny keeps busy,
too, doing the little things. He likes
funnies, spuglietti and driving
ar when he can get the gas. He
goes in fur seafood; often munches
vitamins from the drugstore between
iiicais.
The apolog* tic type, he’s careful
nut to offend anyone and as a re-
^uIt. III..: countless true friends scat-
Urc-d over the world. A linguist, he
speaks in five languages and knows
htiiiiJti character.
Convcisable and brilliant, Benny
Carter doesnt' look it with his free,
even p-rsoiiulity. He reminds us
iinoic of a guy hoping for a near-
future vacation in the country with
time for his fgvorile sport. And he

Carol was draped in aqua crepe with
