 WILLIAM  LINCOLN  HART
Hart became associated in the practice of law with Hugo C. Koehler, under the firm name of Hart and Koehler, which firm has since continued the practice at Alliance, retaining a representative clientage and having to do with much important litigation in the courts of the county and state.
Hart is known as an able advocate and counselor, and such is his appreciative recognition of the ethical code of his profession that he has the good will and esteem of his compeers at the bar.
Hart is a staunch advocate of the principles of the Republican party, and while he has never been an aspirant for official preferment, by appointment of Mayor Walker, he is serving as a member of the board of sinking fund commissioners for Alliance.

 DVD Verdict Review - Roxie Hart
Kitty Foyle, Ginger Rogers no doubt felt she had proved herself as a serious actress and could move on to lighter fare.
Rogers had a superb gift for playing smart, wisecracking women; see especially her work in the classic ensemble dramedy Stage Door (1937), which also paired her with Adolphe Menjou.
With Rogers in the role, it comes as no surprise that Roxie is a terrific dancer, even if she lacks class.

 William S. Hart park   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Unlike the Will Rogers estate (which is located in the heart of Sunset Blvd. between Beverly Hills and Malibu), the Hart ranch requires a fairly long drive north, out past the San Fernando foothills, to a 265-acre grassy mesa covered with sycamore trees, near Magic Mountain.
Hart was one of the first movie cowboys, starring with his horse Fritz in over 60 silent fl and white sagebrush classics, including "The Narrow Trail" (1917) and "Hell's Hinges" (1916).
But Hart's last movie was 1925's "Tumbleweeds," so most of us grew up long after he had retired to his ranch home in the Valley to write novels.

Ginger Rogers seems perfect for Roxie because she gives off believable innocence, unlike Reinking or Zellwegar who not only killed their lovers, but also were too fake for the role.
Rogers is a great Roxie, because she is just like the one in the original play, even though the musical's version is based on Rogers's incarnation.

 Aisle Say (PA): PAL JOEY
The 1940 Rogers and Hart show has always had a show stopping number, but it has traditionally been the song, "Zip", a perky mock strip tease sung by the minor character of Melba Snyder, a sassy reporter.
Lyricist Lorenz Hart has probably written some of the sexiest lyrics ever for this song -- which is rarely sung in its entirety -- and which builds brilliantly to a smoldering crescendo.
With such a terrific score it is unfortunate that this Rogers and Hart show doesn't see the light of day more often.

 Classic pop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into Pop standards.
Specifically, however, classic pop refers to the song output of the Broadway and Hollywood show tune writers from approximately World War I to the 1950s, such as Irving Berlin, Harold Arlen, Jerome Kern, George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin, Richard Rogers, Lorenz Hart, Oscar Hammerstein, Johnny Mercer, Dorothy Fields, Hoagy Carmichael, and a host of others.
The distinction between classic pop and the popular music of the aforementioned time period lies in an enduring appeal of the greatest of these songs, long after their time of being "chart hits," although methods for measuring commercial appeal changed greatly over the course of the twentieth century.
