Now it's the turn of Johnny Mathis to turn on the girls with Misty. "We sing on a college campus and the kids stop and listen and they hear a message. Not like the rock and roll songs. They hear and they under- stand," says Adriel. "This is the great problem -- exposure," says soft-spoken Abel De Costa, the only other Ink Spot available for their meet-the-media session. "Once they've heard they're converted." ADRIEL WANDERS And that's the way the Ink Spots' legend keeps rolling along. Only they don't get the air time they used to but you can get all their old, original songs on stereo LPs. Adriel wandered back through the years, as though he were giving a run-down of last night's performance.

Suddenly the scratchy old nib caught on the paper and made a spot on the paper and that was it. The Ink Spots got their name. Walter Winchell got hold of their first recording and If I didn't Care, supposed to be second-best side of the disc, sold a million and is still, one of the biggest selling records in North America. Altogether the outfit chalked up 10 million sellers. : The original group even made two movies. One had the un- likely title of Pardon My Sarong and the other was The Big Broadcast of 1936 with Alice Fay and other big names. Even in these psychedelic days the boys don't feel left out, in fact they admire the Beatles for their message and even Elvis Presley. With one of the original group dead and Bill Kenny now living in Vancouver the group is somewhat depleted and they were depleted even further this week. Bob Williams had to fly back to New York where there had been a death in the family and the group was expecting a anni MEMBERSHIP TOTALS 125 Nn HHH some of the partitions were erected and new equipment arrived.
