Famed as a discoverer of talent, Rudy Vallee (left) is shown here with his newest find, who is to be presented at 6 o'clock tonight on WLW. The newcomer’s name is Charles Alphonse Vallee, and he happens to be Rudy's father, but that’s no reason to keep him off the air, thinks the crooning master of ceremonies. John Boles and George Jessel also wil}: be among the guests.

Gives Vent fo Talent

Glinka was the first of the Rus-| . sian nationalists and also seemed to| set a precedent for-his followers by! working in a government office during his youth. The majority of the later Russian composers, including Tschaikowsky, Cui, Borodin, Rimsky Korsakoff and Glazounov, began their careers as clerks, scientists, soldiers or sailors, later turning seriously to music at the compulsion of talent and enthusiasm. “Russlan and Ludmilla” was the second of Glinka's two operas. The first was “A Life for the Czar,” produced in 1886, when the composer w 33. “Russian and Ludmilla” was written six years later and is! based on a poem by Pushkin. | It failed at first to achieve the | . popularity of its predecessor. i {fter Glinka's death, however, it] farpd better, and by 1903. the cen- | ry of the composer's birth, had | given 300 times in Russia | Some find the germ of! haikow sky's and Rimsky- -Korsa~ | koff’'s ultra-Slavic operas in these | two works of Glinka.
