-407- Opening day drew $7,200 topping the Bob Hope record opener of $5,200. (BB, Jan. 24, 1942) Here is part of the evening show January 16 th from Variety, January 16, 1942): “Miller must be taking it for granted that it is his regular following out in front for he isn’t bothering with any identification of his tunes which is a little hard on the strays. He mixes it up hot and sweet from the beginning medley of ‘In the Mood’, ‘Sunrise Serenade’, and ‘Little Brown Jug.’ First one sells the audience pronto with the kids practically getting out of hand. It needed smoothed voice Eberle to quiet them down with ‘White Cliffs’ before increasing tempo again with the Modernaires in ‘Elmer’s Tune’. The five stay with ‘Ev’rything I Love.’ Miller lets his music speak for him nicely blending the sweet and then letting out the polished brass registering big with numbers such ‘Dear Mom’ or ‘One O’Clock Jump’. Marion Hutton seems to have forsaken solo choruses singing mostly with the Modernaires in ‘Nickel Serenade’ and ‘Chattanooga Choo Choo’. Her personality impresses none the less. Also gaining recognition was Tex Beneke as feature sax and with impersonations of Sully Mason.” The film at this theater was Sullivan’s Travels. Lorraine and Rognan were also on the bill. “Michigan Theater which still is sweeping out the jitterbugs after hanging up a new record of $55,900.00" (Variety, Jan. 21, 1942) 17 January, 1942 (SAT): Detroit, Michigan (SUNSET SERENADE) Mutual 5:00-6:00 PM EST Information is missing on the tunes played on this program. 20 January, 1942 (TUES): Michigan Theater, Detroit, Michigan (CHESTERFIELD SHOW) CBS 10:00-10:15 PM EST.
