Good Music
—By James Thrasher.
Leopold Stokowski, an orchestra conductor of some prominence, seems to -have made good in Hollywood. The stamp of approval has been
placed upon him by no less a person ducer of epic extravaganzas.
than Cecil B. DeMille, veteran pro-
It's Mr. Stokowski’s. showmanship, more than- anything else, that appeals to Mr. DeMille, and .on- the chance that his letter might also
interest you, here it is: “Undoubtedly there are many
rectly the works of Bach, Debussy, Beethoven, Brahms, Stravinsky and others. But there aren’t “many who can infuse this correctness with the color, the brilliance, Lhe drama of a Leopold Stokowski.* “Makes Music Breathtaking”
“I notice - that Stokowski makes his music not only beautiful but breathtaking, not only perfect, but ful. That is a test of showmanship.” It is the ability to thrill and hold your audience, as well as
first ‘place. “They tell me Stokowski has appeared more often in front page
musician. But not on the strength of scandals or private eccentricities. He has become good. copy by being a bombshell in:the field of music, jarring the traditions loose from their cherished habits. “If it is showmanship that has made the name Stokowski known to millions of men and women in America, then I urge the conservatories and schools of music to give us more musicians who are show-men-in the same way.”
He's a Musician, Too " Maybe some one ought to tell Mr.
manship that has made Dr. Stokowski known to millions, though it has helped. But if he is remembered, and presumably he will be, it won't be because he had an amber spotlight shining on his hair when he conducted the Academy of Music in Philadelphia, or because he scolded his audiences for not liking modern music. Perhaps Mr. DeMille also ought ‘to realize that it our conservatories and music schools started offering graduate course in showmanship, Pe still wouldn’t turn out many Stokowskis. This matter of color, brilliance and drama, in addition to correctness, which Mr. DeMille mentions and which his subject un-
matter of musicianship as of showmanship. Dr. Stokowski can be most effective and enjoyable when considered from a musical standpoint, as shown by his admirable recordings and broadcasts, where personality is
least prominent. And Mr. DeMille should notice sometime that these qualities of color, brilliance and drama usually are present only where the composer wanted them. Later in his message, Mr. DeMille predicts a striking success for the noted conductor when he makes his screen debut playing his own Bach transcriptions in “The Big Broadcast of 1937.” He should be right, for these transcriptions are among the best things that Dr. Stokowski, or any one else, does. But we should like to remind Mr. DeMille that Bach, as well as Stokowski, did quite a lot for that music.
You may hear the greatest comedian in’ the world if you listen to the Burns and Allen show on WFBM at 7:30 p. m. At least Announcer Ken Niles says he is going to present the man he considers is tops. Ken tried to "tell some jokes of his own last week without much luck—so he's to bring in the man of mystery fo help him out tonight.

+ Standing pat with one of radio's most popular comedy acts Fred ‘Allen is to return to the air at 8 tonight on WLW. He plans a weekly hour of variety throughout the sea« son. He will have the same show as last year—burlesque news reels, satire, amateurs, novelties and his. own (particular brand of informal comedy. ; With the exception of Jack Smart,
‘who is making pictures in Holly
wood, the cast is to return intact. Once more you will hear Fortland Hoffa, Fred's wife and favorite hecks ler; the “Mighty Allen Art Players”; Peter van Steeden’s orchestra and the Town Hall Quartet. The drawling comic, whose real name is John FP. Sullivan and who, like! W. C. Fields, began his career as a juggler, spent the summer in Maine on his first real vacation since he became a top-ranking radio star three years ago. “I'm so tanned,” says Fred, “thas I could make-the rotogravures withe out retouching.”

Knox, who speaks from Philadelphia
at 8 p. m. on WIRE, will have to -
cram an hour's talk into 30 minutes if he helps to compete with his op= position. Beginning at 8:30 p. m. there are to be half-hour addresses by Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins and Secretary of State Cordell Hull. Miss Perkins’ talk will come over WIRE, while Mr. Hull will be on the air at 9 p. m. on‘the{ NBC-Blue network. 2» 8 : Local political broadcasts, by the way, are more grief to station of= ficials than you might think. Every speech must be submitted to the program departments some days bee fore it is scheduled to go on the air. Then station attorneys check it carefully for any libelous matter, after which it is given a recheck at the studio.

Meredith Willson, whose musical caricature of Greta Garbo clicked on a recent network broadcast, plans to do a series of such whim= sical portraits for NBC and WIRE, “Caricature artists,” Mr, Willson points out, “obtain their effects by exaggerating certain well known characteristics of their subjects—a long nose, a bald head, an odd mustache or beard. By so doing they often manage to inter« pret the personality of their sube jects more truly than any pores trait could. “I have tried to do the same thing in a musical medium,” he explains. Each of the themes in “Greta Gare bo” suggested an aspect of the film star's appearance and temperament. Woven through them, here and there, are a few notes of the song “Alone. ” ” 2 ”
During Morris Hicks’ interview of Ely Culbertson over WIRE Monday, the subject of the bridge expert's farm was brought up. Mr. Cule bertson was attempting to give lise teners an idea of its operating ex= pense.’ “If you come to see me, and the butler offers you a glass of chame pagne or a glass of milk, take the champagne—it's cheaper.” said Mr, Culbertson to Mr. Hicks.
