 Judy Garland Database film review: "Pigskin Parade"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
Coincidentally, TSU has just hired a new coach (Jack Haley) who arrives at the college with his wife (Patsy Kelly) just in time to hear the announcement that the team is to play Yale.
Second row: between Haley and Kelly is Tony Martin; between Erwin and Garland is one of the Yacht Club Boys; between Garland and Grable is Fred Kohler Jr.
Audiences and critics considered Patsy Kelly and Jack Haley to be the leading actress and actor of the film, so Erwin's nomination was a dubious honor for the actor.

 JWA Presents "This Week in History"
Though she claimed that she had "never sung a single song in my whole life on purpose to shock anyone," songs like "I May Be Getting Older Every Day (But Younger Every Night)" challenged prevailing codes of ethnic, gender, and class-based morality.
Although crowds across the U.S. and Europe loved Tucker's frank, humorous style, her most famous song was probably "My Yiddishe Momme," written especially for her by Jack Yellen in 1925.
The song, which Tucker sang in both Yiddish and English, nearly set off an anti-Semitic riot during a 1932 French performance, and was later banned in Nazi Germany.

 Paul Whiteman and his Orchestra
Over the years, critics and some musicians like Eddie Condon, have not had kind words to say about the band and have tended to represent Whiteman as a bad influence on the music in his attempts to "Make a lady out of Jazz".
The title of "The King Of Jazz" which Whiteman was billed as seems somewhat politically incorrect these days, but in the 1920s he dominated the scene and hired the best White hot musicians like Bix Beiderbecke, Frankie Trumbauer, Eddie Lang, Joe Venuti, Jack Teagarden and many more to play in his band.
Paul Whiteman greatly enriched American music by commissioning George Gershwin to write Rhapsody In Blue which became his orchestra's signature tune.

For example, Jack Yellen's song "Happy Days Are Here Again" was adopted as FDR's campaign theme despite Yellen himself being a Republican.
Maybe he was still grateful for the attention & the fact that the song became one of the most popular of the Depression era.
Anyhow, READING LYRICS is a good refresher course for anyone wanting to learn about popular music's golden age or, even better, for someone wanting to explore songwriting themselves.
