Vaughn's Favorite Song
I had the privilege of talking to Vaughn on the Steel Pier
in Atlantic City in 1950. They had a house there full of gadgets of the
future, and he was walking and looking at the exhibits. My girl spotted him
and before a crowd gathered we had him to ourselves for a few minutes. I
asked him to sing a few bars of "Racing with the Moon". Vaughn said that his
contract forbid him. That's when I asked for his favorite song, and his
reply was "You Were Meant for Me" because it was his and Marian's favorite.
