‘Crooner Ray & Comforter – Dropped Hanky’
Published in Time magazine, 19 March 1956
Crybaby Crooner Johnnie (The Little White Cloud That Cried) Ray was close to real tears in Australia after a wild and wooly welcome from adoring teen-age fans. Ray, a veteran of Down-Under tours, sagged in a chair of Sydney’s airport following a grating big hello from kids who smashed down barricades to get at him. Ripped his shirt and coat. Lost: his tie, hanky and decorum
