An interesting story, which proves a lot of
things about leaders of recording dance orches-
tras, but principally that they are good fellows,
is being told at present in Chicago, as a result
of an incident toward the close of the program
at Keith's Palace, that city, on Sunday evening,
October 11. A surprise announcement was
made that four famous dance orchestra leaders,
all hailing from California, were in the theatre
and had been asked to step up on the stage.
As they were introduced they stepped out from
the wings, Herb Wiedoeft, first, Abe Lyman,
and then Paul Ash, all getting a thundering wel-
come. While everyone was looking for the
fourth man, these three stepped over the foot-
lights and grabbed Paul Whiteman, sitting in
the second row, and forced him to the stage.
Somehow a violin was placed in Mr. White-
man's hands, a trumpet in Mr. Wiedoeft's,
drums were pushed on to Abe Lyman's corner,
and Mr. Ash seated himself at the piano, and

song, who happened to be in the wings.
