PROBABLY SO. Scarcely anyone, even the egotist, is so well satisfied with himself that he does not wish for qualities possessed by someone else. The weak, timid person wishes he were transformed into some self-confident, poised person of his acquaintance. I have found that nearly everyone would like to be a good public speaker or a fine actor or actress.

“ & & Conservatory broadcasts usually are so enterprising in the matter of presenting unfamiliar music that a program of standard recital pieces

actually is news, That is what you may expect from the Curtis Institute program on WFBM at 3 p. m. tomorrow, Sidney Finkelstein, pianist, and Julius Schulman, violinist, will be the performers, and their selections contain a number of favorite “classies.” Mr. Finkelstein will open the program with thé Chopin “Barcarolle,” and continue with Saperton’s “Zephyr”; “La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin,” by Debussy, and Dohnanyi's setting of the Waltz from Delibes’ “Naila.” Mr. Schulman's solos will include Sarasate’s “Malaguena”; the “Scher go-Tarantelle” by Witniawski; Wil helmj's arrangement of the Schupert “Ave Maria,” and Bazzini's “Round of the Goblins.”

The retired movie star who heads [the cast is 22-vears-old Jackie ©oo- | gan, who has his first grownup role [in this series.

Jackie hasn't been idle since he retired from pictures, for vaudeville contracts kept him busy. He got into radio quite by accident when a New York agent called I him suggesting the series in which | he mow stars. Jackie thought it over and decided to try it, but he has expressed no opinions about his radio future. He would like to be in a New York play, but fears there isn’t much money on Broadway.

Mary played last in the rollicking “College Holiday,” and the Old Maestro is now making a new picture.

Wire preakdowns like the trouble west of Salt Lake City which last week interrupted the Fred Astaire program bring into notice studio performers which are heard very infrequently and about which we hear (nothing. I'm speaking of the pi= anists network key stations keep on duty, but who play only a very few minutes weekly. Their job is to fill in when the announcer says something “about a brief interlude of piano music.” They are paid full union salaries and

NBC questioners Parks and Bute terworth, who will be heard on WIRE at 8 o'clock tonight, not long ago perplexed an interviewee by asking her how she could be sure the light inside her refrigerator goes out when she closes the door. More recently, a couple of Sunday comics featured a skit about a man making an icebox kevhole, The éx=planation was that the keyhole was needed to see if the light went out when the door was closed. And here we have a good example of the | same material being adapted by | different entertainers for different presentation. You hear it every day if you listen,
