- HOSPITALIZED. Cab Calloway, 81, singer and bandleader whose
- hipsterish theme hi-de-ho from Minnie the Moocher became an
- anthem of Harlem's jazz age; in critical condition; in White
- Plains, N.Y. Two weeks ago, Calloway collapsed while on tour in
- Japan. For the first time in his 60-year career, the entertainer
- had to miss a performance. Wrote Calloway in his autobiography:
- "Women, horses, cars, clothes. I did it all. And do you know
- what that's called, ladies and gentlemen? It's called living."
