The Franks were married on June 17, 1 f' 51, and Maestro Frank says "Through our mutual understand ing of each other’s problems, we have successfully combined both careers with a most happy family life. This has to a large extent been responsible for our previous successes, and feel that we have a life ahead of many interesting and compatible experiences.” Sherman is an amateur photog rapher. He’s an enthusiastic spec tator of boxing, wrestling and ice hockey. For relaxation, he loves to swim, read, play tennis and ride horseback. He’s a real television fan, and he loves foreign food. He’s very cosmopolitan in his choice . . Italian, French, German, Japanese and Creole dishes all appeal to him. Sherman Frank is quite a fellow. He’s an accomplished musician, who looks like a movie star, talks like a combination businessman and artist, and possesses all the bet ter features of each. We feel that he will furnish that extra addition al spark which will make this sea son in the Municipal Theater Un- der-the-Stars one to be remember ed for many years.
