Sir,-After reading the poem in The Listener sent in by "The Rustle of Bing," New Brighton, I feel there must be @ reply to it: The person who wrote that poem Was jealous we might have known, Saying our one and only Bing Does not know how to. sing. This biggest money-making star Is our top singer-by far, Be it classic or be it swing It’s sung with equal ease by Bing. a « Fo our poet wouldn’t like to swing on g tar Or carry moonbeams home in a jar, To do away with Bing seems his wish, So I guess he must be a fish. Crosby puts any song through its paces, Even though he is fond of races, But he, too, must have his flingSo I say long live Bing!
BING'S FAN
