BLOND BARITONE
Sir-As apparently none. of Nelson Eddy’s New Zealand admirers has written to you with regard to the article in Open Microphone in your issue of March 5, I would like to point out that a statement that Nelson Eddy was to visit this .céuntty ‘along with Jeannette MacDonald in 1953 was made also in Dominion newspapers. On heating of this, the singer himself wrote in January last year: "There seems to be some mistake regarding my appearance with Jeannette MacDonald in New Zealand, I am not planning to leave this country this year." With regard to Allan Eddy, the Australian baritone, he is certainly not Nel« son Eddy’s brother, as the latter has no brother. In my hearing Allan Eddy claimed to be a cousin, but when asked by the Nelson Eddy International Club if this were so, Nelson Eddy answered with a catecorical "No."
