[78-L] Homage to Ethel Smith

[Randy Skretvedt]

TCHIKO TCHIKO?  Like "Cheeko," the way most people mispronounce Chico Marx's first name?  (Which is properly pronounced "Chick-o," as the name refers to his being a "chicken chaser," a guy who was always after the dames.)
I'll remember Ethel in this Sunday's program--glad to know about the centennial.  Some other interesting hundredths still to come: http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/birthday_search.php?year=1910
