NO. Of course many wealthy people who have little else to do ‘ay travel to see something or some place because their friends: all talk about it. We all feel a bit small | when with people who talk about | Budapest or Tokyo or the Sistine Chapel, etc., if we have not been to these places. But psychologists have found that if you ask a thousand people what they would like most to do they will, without exception. reply instantly, “travel.” It is a deeper passion than the mere desire to talk about it—a passion to see new scenes, forget your troubles, experience new climates and in short—Ilive. ” » » ALL the features of the head

Good Radio Music ‘By JAMES THRASHER

Just when we think that all the musicians have gone on their summer vacations, the open air concerts. start springing up in mushrooni profusion all over the United States and Europe. Alert broadcasters will 1 be bringing you a great many of them during the next NBC, for instance, will offer, within the next few weeks, programs from Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, Chautauqua Lake, N.

‘For ‘tomorrow night’s music, Joss Iturbi will return’ to Robin Hood Dell. High points of the program will be those two popular Sibelius compositions, “Finlandia” and “The Swan of Tuonela,” and the: “Polovetzian Dances” from Borodin’s “Prince Igor.” a un =» It’s safe to predict a stimulating and satisfying hour for the listeners who tune in the “Everybody’s Music” program at 1 p. m. tomorrow on WFBM.

He, like Jane, came to radio as a group singer—the Revel ers’ first tenor— and won recogni= tion for individual work only after a long, bitter struggle. There was a tinte when he had the reputation of being radio’s most obstreperous singer, but program directors say he’s less vociferous, now that he heads his own show.

“The Sunday - Night - Party,” which NBC-Red- carries at 8 o'clock each Sunday evening, and: which until recently was the “Sat-. | urday Night Party,” is Walter ‘O'Keefe’s old pregram which he left- after several arguments over script. Melton got the top spot after its backers tried _several guest mastérs of ceremony, and apparently there’s been no trouble since. Tomorrow’s guest stars will be Marta Abba and John Halliday, stars of Broadway's “Tovarich.” Largely musical, the “Sunday Night Party” is pleasant summer entertainment, but it hardly is a progtam which will win any new honors for its aspiring stars.

A sudden flash of temperament caused a :last=minute “Magic Key” program change last week. A few minutes prior to broadcast time, Kay Thompson walked out because Director Frank Black refused to ree arrange his orchestra to. put the trumpet section directly behind her “Rhythem Singers” choir. The Southernaires quartet substituted.

“Magic Key” lists its guests for tomorrow’s program—NBC-WLW at 12 noon—as Lucrezia Bori, former Metropolitan Opera soprano; Sheila Barrett, monologist and frequent radio guest artist; Jan Peerce, NBC tenor, and Richard Himber’s orchestra. : Jean Sablon, the French singer who came to American radio after a guest performance from Paris as part of a “Magic Key” broadcast, becomes the program’s first regular artist, beginning July 11, indicating, perhaps, that “Magic Key,” long €Xxclusively a guest artist show, may be ready to settle down with a. permanent cast. 7” ” Thirteen-year-old Patricia Kerch. of Indianapolis won first prize in WFBM'’s “Children’s Hour” final breadecast this morning with a reading, “Scratch.” Second prize went to Louis G. Mader, 14, also of Indianapolis, for a:violin sola, Sarasati’s “Gypsy Airs.” z Children from Indianapolis Shelbyville, - Williamsport and Coatesville competed in the finals of the amateur series, which

Charlie McCarthy now is listed as a member of Don Ameche’s cast for the NBC Sunday evening show, but the agency takés no chances with audiences thinking he’s just another man, hired to talk to Edgar Bere gen. He's billed as Charlie. (Dum=my) McCarthy, but anyone who thinks the little scamp is a dummy just doesn’t know his radio.

This program, like many just now, will undergo a staff change after tomorrow night. Werner Janssen, conductor, leaves to open his own light music series on the Blue network on July 4, to be replaced on the Ameche show. by Robert Ambruster. Ambruster leaves New York today for Hollywood and his new assignment. : . : i #2 Ringing ‘out the old programs, ringing in the new keeps networks and local-stations busy just now, with the fading of Joe Cook's Saturday: night NBC program. tonight heading the revision list. Joé’s show met with more than moderate success, and earlier-reports indicated it might run through the ' summer. Guests tonight—NBC-WLW at 7:30 o'clock—include- Warden - Lewis E.

Conductor Johnny ‘ Green will be heard with Jack Bene ‘ny as part of Benny's farewell pro= gram tomorrow night. Maestro Green, you know, used to be Benny's baton wielder before going to the Fred Astaire broadcast. Jane Froman takes over for Benny during the summer. Last of Bob Ripley's current series will be heard tomorrow evening, and the “Believe-It-Or-Not” man will be off the air until Fri
