Many stickups in some of the fashionable sections of Brooklyn have not been reported because the victims were picked carefully. People Peo-ple who made oodles in the black market and kept their wealth in their homes. Can't squawk now. . . . Communist chief William Z. Foster hides in the phone directory (Bronx) under the listing of William E. Foster. Times Square Vignette: Songwriter Hugh Martin probably will never get any medals from Texas because bis new song bit, "Tired of Texas," joshes the Lone Star State. . . .

The lyrics got a lotta "yox" ( more than the composer expected) so be worked on the ditty to whip it into commer cial use. . . . Several producers with musical comedy scripts turned it down. . . .
