On this date in 1944:
Composer Sues Benny
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 1 — Allen Kelty, Hollywood song writer, filed suit in Federal Court yesterday against Jack Benny, film and radio comedian; Dennis Day, singer on Benny's radio program, and others, charging copyright infringement of a song she contended she wrote and copyrighted, in 1937. She asked an accounting and an injunction.
Happy New Year

I can't believe anyone would claim credit for "When You Say I Beg Your Pardon, Then I'll Come Back to You."

Afraid not, Krl. Nothing in any of the papers. The specifics of "how" and which song aren't even outlined.
