The Bachelors  Columbus Said, “Si, Si, Signor"   Favoriting   In 1946, Ted Cott, as program director for radio station WNEW, commissioned Hy Zaret and Lou Singer to write a series of one minute "jingles" on racial understanding and Americanism. The resulting collection of 12 songs was called Little Songs on Big Subjects. WNEW transcribed 5 of them and aired them as what later became known as Public Service Announcements (PSAs). The Institute for Democratic Education made them available to stations throughout the U.S., and the songs aired daily on hundreds of radio stations. By 1949, an executive from WNEW estimated the songs had aired half a million times.

The original recordings featured The Bachelors, with Ray Porter arranger and conductor. In 1947, Argosy published a songbook with cover illustration by Roger Duvoisin, and VOX Records released an album (VOX VSP 306) in their Spotlight Series, with cover art by Don Shapiro..

In January 1949, a new record featuring The Jesters with Roy Ross and his orchestra was released with 11 songs. It did not include "The Poor Old World." The cover design was by Otto Soglow.

I had no memory of the Jolson song being done by Holiday and Young, but it made me look up the other song because I was once told by one of the performers of that song that he did not want it broadcast over the radio. That he had recorded the song as an academic exercise for library research, not for general public consumption.

that song "Three Little Words" that Lee Wiley sang is a classic tune. Looking it up I am surprised to find that the first major recording of it was The Rhythm Boys (featuring Bing Crosby) with the Duke Ellington Orch.

PS: this is a tangent, but yes The Rhythm Boys recorded with Duke Ellington in 1930. And it seems that Ellington recorded with other anglo vocalists early on. Ellington's prestige position as the feature at the Cotton Club may have been a factor.
