Michigan ^ate news Monday Mornln Duke Hit at Cotton CI By MIKE SCOTTO instrument to make Of the State News Staff On in 1927 at the Cotton Club, a tall, and his sturdily built Negro walked on stage a dance and conducted music that left his au¬ dience spellbound. The concert was the start of a glorious career for Edward"Duke" Ellington who since that memorable night In the Cotton Club, has left his audiences all ov^r the world fascinated by his brilliant music making. The nickname "Duke" was'given to him at the age of eight by a pal who had the habit of nicknaming all his friends. The Duke's interest during high school was oil painting. His ambitious goal was that of an art career and he won a scholarship to Pratt Institute in Brooklyn But his interest in the piano and com¬ posing made him abandon painting for music. Music, whether it consists of arrang¬ ing, composing or conducting was never ascribed to Duke. He acquired his bril¬ liance through hard workandaninformal music education, touched slightly by some formal training, whereby he gain¬ ed much valuable musical experience playing with groups around his home town, Washington D.C. The turning point In Duke's life from a "nobody to a "somebody"-, can be definitely attributed to his appearance at the Cotton Club in 1927, where he remained for three vears. In the 30's he began to float through most of the country and parts of Eu¬ rope, leaving songs such as "Mood In¬ digo", "Scrphi s t ica te d Lady", "So¬ litude", and a score of others to be listened over and over again by his audiences.

John Sturges directs'' Sargeants 3" and it is evident that he was directed by Sinatra who, by the way, hired him. Sinatra plays his typical role of the hard guy while Dean Martin staggers merrily into his place as the lush. Sinatra and Martin have played these two parts so often that they have now become second nature to them. Peter Lawford skips happily into the picture as the little col¬ lege man gone rough and tumble soldier type. Sammy Davis Jr. sneaks through most of the picture as a recently freed slave who adnnires the "pretty blue un¬ iforms" and literally worships at the feet of his Gods, Sinatra and Martin.
