Frank Sinatra's press agent

A few days later Nick Sevano brought a new press agent, George Evans, to the show. 'I was bringing George Evans down the aisle to get closer to the stage,' recalled Nick Sevano. A girl stood up and threw a rose at Frank and the girl next to her moaned a little. That's all George needed to see. A couple of days later he created an absolute pandemonium for Frank.' After seeing Frank sing at the Paramount, the astute press agent worked with dervishlike energy to turn the sparks of a tossed rose and a moaning teenager into a conflagration of screaming hysterical women.

He hired twelve long-haired, round-faced little girls in bobby socks and paid them five dollars apiece to jump and scream and yell 'Oh, Frankie. Oh, Frankie' when Frank started to sing one of his slow, soft ballads. He drilled them in the basement of the Paramount, directing them to holler when Frank bent and dipped certain notes. 'They shouldn't only yell and squeal, they should fall apart,' Evans said. Two of the girls were coached to fall in a dead faint in the aisle while the others were told to moan in unison as loudly as they could.

To pack the theater to capacity, Evans distributed free tickets to hundreds of youngsters on school vacation. He told a few select columnists that a new young singer was appearing at the Paramount. He said Frank was going to be bigger than any other singer because he made women fall on the floor. Photographers were alerted, and the next day's newspapers showed pictures of young girls being carried out 'in a swoon' after seeing Frank Sinatra. Twelve were hired but thirty fainted.
