The Cleveland Press recently ran an interesting story about homegrown Jay McMullen who went on to make the big time in Gotham as a TV producer who specializes in fingering bad guys. It seems he shook up the Boston officials with his documentary "Biography of a Bookie Joint" a few years ago, and just came up with an equally explosive one called "The Business of Heroin."

To get this, Jay started in the poppy fields of Turkey, through Spain, to a street corner in Harlem where, hidden in a disguised truck, he filmed in cloak and dagger fashion the ultimate junk sales.

Jack Schultz's mother was kind enough to send me the Roving Gourmet column from the New York Telegram and Sun dealing with a dinner party Carol Channing threw at Gallagher's Steak House.

Jerry Brody's magic is much better. Every restaurant he has anything to do with is a success overnight."

Dick Keady's father, Tom, one of the best-known athletic personalities of the early 20th century passed away last month.
