There is a wonderful story about Jimmy Durante, 61 is one of the great singers in the twentieth century. One day, when 62 (ask)to be part of a show for some old World War II soldiers, Jimmy said he could afford only a few minutes and 63 he would come if they wouldn’t mind his singing one short song and immediately leaving for his next appointment. Of course, the show’s director agreed happily.
But when Jimmy got on stage, something 64 (surprise) happened. He went through the short song and then stayed. The applause grew louder and louder and he kept staying. Pretty soon, he had been on stage 65 fifteen, twenty, and then thirty minutes. One of his assistants behind the stage stopped him and said, “I thought you had to go after a few minutes. What happened?” Jimmy answered, “I did have to go, but I can show you the reason 66 I stayed. You can see for yourself if you look at the front row.” In the front row 67 (be) two men, both of 68 had lost an arm in the war. 69 had lost his right arm and the other had lost his left. Together, they were able to clap, and that was exactly 70 they were doing, loudly and cheerfully.
