[Dixielandjazz] Beebe, The Man

[David Richoux]

Pam,

You may be right, but remember all those songs about "Lucky"  
Lindbergh? Maybe Charles W. Beebe was almost as famous. Without  
lyrics we will never really know, I think.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucius_Beebe - seems like he would have  
been pretty young in 1930 to be a super celebrity, his column in the  
New York Herald Tribune  was later.

(Total conjecture)
