Prominent in week-end radio programs are Grace Moore (left) and

Jean Sablon (right).

Miss Moore heads her own CBS-WFBM show at 8 o’clock tomorrow

evening, presenting operatic music and songs from her films. Sablon, you may recall, is the young man recently introduced to American listeners by Rudy Vallee after he rose to fame via European radio. He is featured now in two NBC-Red network shows, one at 10:15 o'clock tonight and another at 8:30 o'clock on Monday nights.

WELL, Eduora Ramsay Richard“son, in her brilliant and witty

bqok, “The Influence of Men—In-

curable,” -says (abridged): “Women have: always understood men far better than men have understood women. We have known that man was under compulsion to assert his superiority because he was profoundly conscious he was less important than the mothers of the race. Poor men! They have always played

‘a minor role in creation. Women

have done little to curb the egotism of man because they have not taken it seriously and because a deflated man is a rather unpleasant thing to have about the house.” ;

Stunt fliers, who want {to risk their own necks can he as | reckless as they like, but airline executives study the temperament of their pilots as much as they do their technical skill.

Radio Music

By JAMES THRASHER

A sign of better times is the fact that the Metropolitan Opera Co. this week has resumed its spring season’in Cleveland's Public Auditorium after an absence of six years. And a sign of radio listeners” good fortune is the fact that NBC keeps on bringing these Saturday matinee broad-

casts to us.

So tomorrow, at 1 p. m. on WLW, we may hear Rosa Ponselle as Bizet's celebrated charmer .in “Carmen.” The other principal parts will

be taken by Rene Maison and Hilda «

Burke. Gennaro Papi will be the conductor, with Robert Waldorp to

tell you what's taking place on the

stage. ; ’

” ” sn A As an afterpiece to the eighth annual Library of Congress Chamber Music Festival, which ended Sunday in Washington, the CogQlidge String Quartet tomorrow will play Jerzy Fitelberg’s Quartet No. 4, which won the 1936. Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge Foundation award. The broadcast will be at 5 p. m. on the CBS network. i : Mr. Fitelberg is a young Polish

composer, and his work was select- |

ed from the numerous chamber music compositions submitted for

Hindemith, who made his America debut at the festival.

x ¥ * § Tonight's Philadelphia Orchestra broadcast will be the last of 23 before the players set out on their second gnnual franscontinental concert tour. During their absence there will be five guest symphony orchestras—those ~ from Cincinnati, San Francisco, New York, Washington and Rochester. ‘Leopold Stokowski will conduct again tonight, and his program con-

(whether the “Great” or the “Little” is not announced); a Pavane and Gigue by the 16th Century English~ man, William Byrd, and the familiar “Polovetzian Dances” from

the prize. By winning, he succeed- | ed in sharing the spotlight with tfie! celebrated German composer, Paul |

8 p.m, . .. Major events in the Women’s Senior A. A. U3 Swimming Championships in Chicago will be described over CBS in a broadcast beginning at 9:45 p. m. . | . At 9:15 a. m. tomorrow, the NBC-Blue network will broadcast Webb Miller's address, “The Situation in Spain,” to be made in Washington before the American Society of Newspaper Editors. . . . Mr. Miller is European

Gee James all-Negro revue which ! manager of the United Press.

{of Warner Brothers’ president, | Harry Warner, have rehearsed n | secret a comedy sketch which, they | promise, will give their celebrated | dads a royal ribbing. Both young- | sters are students at the University {of Southern California, where the

| “Varsity Show” will originate at 9:30 o'clock tonight. : “Varsity Show” plans always are | flexible and subject to last-minute ( revisions, so don’t be surprised if | the young performers, or other announced program features, fail to (reach the microphone. With John | Held Jr. in command, the University’ of Southern California show is to include the famous 100-piece Trojan band; a 70-voice a capella choir; 60-voice mixed ‘chorus; 12piece student swing band; six dramatic groups, and many soloists. Statistically, the show easily reaches the “colossal” status expeeted of everything originating ig or near the film colony. # wn Can it be that Eddie Cantor is grooming his daughter for radio comedqy? He recently was quoted as saying: “If I had a son”—laughter —“or if any youngster I had in hand was asking about a business, I would tell him to try to

learn how to do comedy at the microphone. .

“By the time he grows up, there will be a scarcity of radio comedians. The stage isn’t producing them for radio the way it did before vaudeville disappeared.” (The Lyric's peblicity department, in challenge to those last three words, might submit to Mr. Cantor its attendance figures for the last five or six weeks, when the “S. R. 0.” sign was out most of the time.)

None of Eddie's proteges have grown up yet, but already there is a dearth of radio comedians. Near=ly all established entertainers, espe=cially comedians, take long summer vacations, and substitutes are hard to find. Only George Burns and Gracie Allen, of all the laughprovokers, are scheduled for a summer series, as they have been every summer but one for the past five years. un n 8 Also from the West Coast tonight comes “Hollywood Hotel,” featuring the world's highest paid movie actress—England’s versatile Gracie Fields.

Miss Fields is known around the world as the “woman Charlie Chaplin.” She dances and sings, is equally gifted as a comedienne and tragedienne. The actress is in Hollywood for a short time, and tonight’s appearance on the CBSWFBM 8 o'clock show will be her first on American radie. Bette Davis and Humphrey Bogart will present adaptation of their current movie, “Marked Woman,” which concluded a Lyric engage=ment yesterday. It seems that radio, like the movies, has: taken to “double bills,” what with Miss Fields and the Davis-Bogart team both on one show. : ” ” n ; ; Baseball headlines tomorrow’s daylight schedules, with broadcasts by WIRE and WGN. WIRE, beginning at 1:45 p. m., will broadcast the Indianapolis-Columbus game from Perry Stadium, with Norman Perry Jr. at the microphone. WGN, beginning at 3 p. m., will carry the Chicago | Cubs-Chicago White Sox game. °
