THE puss moth larva presents a fearful appearance to any bird that seeks to make a meal of him. Back of the false head, a red ring about the body is inflated, separating it from the rest of the body. In addition, the caterpillar brandishes two terminal appen-

dages in whip-like fashion.

2 AS REPORTED in the press, Mr. Irenee du Pont, who generously supported a department for cancer research in the University of Pennsylvania, wished its discov eries to be patented so that investi gators would have the added in. centive of financial reward and so that the profits could also ne useqd for further research. While ex. pressing respect for this view President Gates and the board of trustees, according to the report, disagreed because they felt it jm. proper for a State university supported by the people to make profits from its scientific discoverles. I cannot quite agree with the university authorities just because the university is su

by the|

people and, for that very reason, some profits from its discoveries I think might properly accrue to the university for its supports At least one great university has taken this point of view. ” IT IS mostly due to two things 3 —First, a lack of social intelligence—an inability to appreciate other people's feelings and to know how to get along with them. Second, your neighbor may have the highest social intelligence and be a very kindly, considerate person, but slightly dull of hearing.

Good Radio Music

Cincinnati's first post-flood symphony orchestra concert will be broad-

| cast by WFBM at 2 p. m. tomorrow, and will offer the program scheduled

| for two weeks ago.

will be the soloists.

year in Prokofiev, will be heard first in the C Major Concerto of Beethovgn. Both artists will appear later in a performance of Mr. Tansman’s new Suite for Two Pianos and Orchestra, played from manuscript. The work, incidentally, is dedicated to Mr. Schmitz. Eugene Goossens will conduct the orchestra in Franck's D Minor Symphony and that Bolero to end all Boleros—the one by Maurice Ravel. It seems fortunate that Cincinnati was able to secure these two artists for this later date. It will be interesting to hear a new work by a man considered one of the most important of present-day conductors. Mr. Tansman’s works have been performed by orchestras in Europe and the United States under the direction of such noted conductors as Stokowski, Koussevitzky, Golschmann, Stock, Goossens and Sir Henry Wood. He recently was decorated by the Emperor of Japan.

WIRE will offer you the “world radio premiere” of Seth Bingham'’s new American folk cantata, “Wil derness Stone,” at 1 p. m. tomorrow. The Schola Cantorum of New York, directed by Hugh Ross, will present the work. Mr, Bingham, as his name might suggest, is a New Englander. He studied with Horatlo Parker at Yale

and later with Widor and D’Indy in Paris. At present he is associate professor of music in Columbia University. The new cantata is based on a romantic episode in Stephen Vincent Benet's Civil war poem, “John Brown's Body,” and consists of 39 short numbers. About 70 of the Schola Cantorum’s 250 voices will be heard in tomorrow’s broadcast. The group has introduced more than 300 new choral works in its 28 years of existence. Arturo Toscanini used the group in practically all his concerts with the New York Philharmonic-Symphony which required chorus. Mr, Ross has been the Schola Cantorum’s conductor for 10 seasons. His success as an orchestra conductor in Oxford and London brought him to America to lead the Winnipeg Male Chorus in 1923. He also has appeared as guest conductor with the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra.

The Allegro Scherzando movement from a string quartet by Mark Dickey will be broadcast over WIRE at 4:15 p. m. tomorrow by members of the Indianapolis division of the Federal Music Project.

By RALPH NORMAN Tonight's program headliner, rae dio’s flood benefit show, will be rather late—11:30 to 1:30 o’clock— but it should be worth losing several hours sleep to hear. Turn on your radio at 11:30

o'clock and you can't miss it, for the three networks and many independent stations have united to give the ‘‘colossal” offering a thorough airing. Almost every radio, movie and stage star now in New York will have some part in the show, which is to originate on the Music Hall stage in Rockefeller Center. Sam Harris, producer, and George 8S. Kaufman, author of “You Can't Take It With You,” seen here last week, will help stage the performance, Other assistants will include J. J. Shubert, Billy Rose and Marc Connelly. The orchestras of Fred Waring, Vincent Lopez, Leo Reisman and Guy Lombardo will be heard, interspersing comedy and dramatic skits by dozens of prominent entertainers. This is not radio's first “supercolossal” show of recent weeks. There have been several network salutes to new stations, and a big Red Cross benefit show originated last week in Hollywood. Tonight's offering, though, has been planned to outdo them all in brilliancy of cast, number of networks and stations and time on the air.

Waring's Pennsylvanians also may be heard for a few minutes on CBS, beginning at 4:15 o'clock this afternoon, in a special Boy Scout program. Fred and “Poley” McClintock, the comic musician with the Pennsylvanians, joined the Scouts in 1912, and the band has paid tribute on several Scout anniversaries.

” " » A. L, Alexander of “Good Will Court” fame will pause at Rudy Vallee’s microphone (WLW at 7 o'clock tonight) to present a Lincoln birthday feature. Mr. Alexander hasn't figured prominently in radio news since his controversial program ‘was banned by court order, and this, I think, is his first network appearance since he read the “Good Will Court” death war-

rant and introduced “Do You Want to Be An Actor?” which replaced | his program. | By presenting Burgess Meredith in a scene from Maxwell Ander- | son's new play, “High Tor,” Rudy | tonight may ring up another “scoop” for his “Variety Hour.” { Charlie McCarthy and his master, | yerltitionuist Edgar Bergen, are regular Vallee features, and will be | heard tonight in another skit which, | if like its predecessors, will be highly entertaining. " un »

Guest stars for Lanny Ross’ “Show Boat” will be the popular Ruth Etting and the popular George Jessel, both absent too long from radio. Miss Etting will sing “There’s Something in the Air” and “Goodnight My Love,” and George will call up his mother from the “Show Boat” stage to present his famous conversation: “Hello, mother? . . . This is Georgie!” “Show Boat,” which WLW will carry at 8 o'clock, should give Maj. Bowes’ “amateurs” (WFBM at the same hour) more than average competition. u

Completing the Thursday night { variety hour roundup, we find Ed- { ward Everett Horton, Toscha Seidel, violinist, and Dorothy McNulty, singer, all ready for Bing Crosby's “Music Hall,” on WLW at 9 o'clock. Edward Everett is almost a “Music Hall” fixture and it wouldn't be a | bad idea, come to think of it, if we could hear him every Thursday night.

The “March of Time,” nearing the end of its sixth year on the networks, reports that 409 broadcasts have been presented, 270 of them nightly shows and the rest weeklies. This makes, program officials said, a total of 137 hours on the air, or if the “March of Time” had marched on continuously, five days and 17 hours of broadcasting. The first act of the first script, of which there have heen 2323, dealt with the re-election of Chicago's Mayor, “Big Bill” Thompson, and featured voice simulations of Jimmy Walker, Huey Long and William R. Hearst, This week's edition of this news

Church groups throughout the United States aré to be united by an NBC-Blue network broadcast at 7 a. m. tomorrow in observation of the World Day of Prayer for Peace. The World Day of Prayer, on the first Friday in Lent each year, is an outgrowth of denominational days of prayer which were observed in the United States as early as 1887. Tomorrow morning’s service is to be led by Miss Margaret T. Applegarth, well-known author of missionary stories. " un n Abrabam Lincoln’s birthday tomorrow is to be observed with special CBS and NBC programs. The first will be heard at 11:45 a. m. on the NBC-Red network. Called “They Knew Lincoln,” the program will feature Webb Ellender I'ord, grandson of the owner ¢f the theater where Lincoln was shot; Mrs. George Carleton Beale, who as a child knew Lincoln, and Miss Marion Leale, daughter of one of the doc= tors who attended the martyred President. Charles W. Schick, who, as a boy ot 9, heard Lincoln deliver the Gettvshurg Address, is to speak on CES at 1:15 p. m. during a broadcast from Lincoln's tomb in Springfield, Ill. The concluding tribute will be an NBC “Radio Guild” adaptation of “This Was a Man,” on the Blue network at 3 p. m.
