Not only that, but they are being short-waved, non-commercially, to , South America. | * ® =» Christmas is no time of joy for ' orchestra conductors who would like to list “something appropriate” for the holiday week. There is surprisingly little purely | music for this occasion. But Eugene Ormandy will have | something old and something new | for listeners tonight when he pre- | sents the “Spirit of Christmas” by
| Chailliet. The work is new, since |
| you wiil be hearing it on the air | for the first time; old, because it 'is a medley of familiar Christmas | music. Mr. Chailliet is Mr. Ormandy's | bass clarinet player in the Philadel before he left the Philadelphia playto have taught or inspired

Somehow there comes a comfort- | able, if reactionary, feeling that all |is well in the world of music when 'we see that one of our forward‘looking young composers has writ- | ten a fantasy on opera airs. | We refer in this case to Abram | Chasins, the young American pi- | anist-composer, who will give us his { new fantasy on themes from “Carmen” (in manuscript) during his | regular broadcast at 11 a. m. to- | morrow on the NBC-Red network | Constance Keene, his “child prod-

:
Irene Rich and Don Ameche, Friday evening drama players, tonight are to be heard in Christmas plays. Miss Rich, whose broadcast at 8 o'clock is to be | carried by WIRE, is to present a | short play, “The Christmas Guest,” written by Arch Oboler, Mr. Ameche, “First Nighter's” leading man, is to play the leading role in a drama concerning Chrietmas on the battlefields of the World War—“Star of Peace" to be broadcast by WLW at 9 o'clock. n ” | Lum and Abner received many { Christmas presents from listeners but a gift from Olin Gentry, super- | intendent of the Idle Hour Stock | Farm, Lexington, Ky.. pleased them { particularly, Lum’s gift was a shoe { from Burgoo King, 1932 winner of | the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness. Abner received a shoe once worn by Blue Larkspur, winner of $272,000 in various purses. " ” ” With NBC's “Good Will Court | no longer a Sunday evening feature (readers and listeners will recall that “Do You Want to Be an Actor?’ was substituted for this program | last Sunday night), those interested in troubles of thelr fellow men will want to hear NBC's Friday evening “Court of Human Relations” which is carried hy WLW at 8:30 o'clock Although similarity between the two programs is not marked, the Friday night court, like the banned Sunday evening broadcast, depends upon curiosity of listeners in others’ troubles to establish and hold its audience. Since the “Court of Hu man Relations” offers no advice by members of the bar, it turns no danger of being banned from the networks.
