YES. Lying, cheating, stealing, pretending, all these are what seem at -the moment the easiest way; and people take these zigzag methods of trying to get ahead, trying to gain the things in life that make them feel important—which is the chiefest motive in all human behavior—just because they haven't the courage to put up the fight necessary to achieve character. % 2 '% 2 i OF COURSE, intelligence grows as the brain grows from birth until maturity—which.is probably at

Good: Radio ‘Music By JAMES THRASHER
Three musical Bs, though not the usual ones, will bid for your attention at 7 o'clock tonight on WIRE. Bach and Bantock are the composers represented, Frank Black is the conductor who will present their works on hig weekly String Symphony program.
Ne
Opening the hour-long concert will be transcriptions of two of the Mensch, bewein dein Suende gross”
Gott Schoepfer.” Following this will be “Scenes from the Scottish Highlands,” by the Britisher, Granville Bantock. The composition is divided into five movements: “Strathspey,” “Dirge,” “Quickstep,” “Gaelic Melody” and “Reel.”

The Black String Symphony is only one of the summer music features that NBC will offer. Among July highlights are programs from
‘| some of the Europe festivals which,
if reception is good, should prove to | be eminently worth the trouble of daylight listening. Salzburg’s month of opera and, symphony programs will be parceled | out in small doses of shortwave. The summer’s conductors include Arturo Toscanini, Bruno Walter,
| Hans Rnappesye and Berard
and “Wir glauben all” an einea®
Paumgartner, Among the soloists
will be Lotte Lehmann, Ezio Pinza,
Charles Kullmann, Kerstin Thorborg and Eide Norena, all of the Metropolitan Opera. There will be heard in. Mozart’s “Don Giovanni,” “The Magic Flute”. and “The Marriage of Figaro”; Verdi's “Falstaff,” Wagner’s “Die Meistersinger” and Richard Strauss’ “Der Rosenkavalier.” There also will be symphony orchestra concerts devoted .ta the works of Mozart, Verdi and Strauss.

NBC already has announced the date and time on one trans-Atlantic broadcast. On July 24, from 11:15 to 12:40 p m. the second act of “Lohengrin” will be brought to you from the Pestspielhaus at Bayreuth, as a feature of the famous Wagner Festival there,
torium, and the 27-piece orchestra will include many of Mr. Whiteman’s musiciaris who ‘had been associated with him along the road to success. .
ing over the Whiteman show last January, today maintains a radio popularity which indicates more than just fleeting fancy. In Radio Guide’s popularity contest, it placed third, led only by Wayne King and Guy Lombardo. : 2 8 x . - Fred Allen says “Auf Wiedersehen” to his “Town Hall” audi-. ence tonight, bringing an%end to a program series which, in combina tion with Jack Benny, reached a. new hizh in radio comedy, a high that likely will not be reached. again for some seasons. Mr. Allen and his wife, Portland Hoffa, leave the air with" plans for next fall still indefinite. The movie, which was scheduled for summer production, has been postponed until fall, and Mr. Allen doesn’t want to do a movie and: radio series, simultaneously. So° his return fo radio may be post--, poned until December, or even longer, while he does his stunts for the camera. > i . 32 8 = Radio loses its most colorful come=
the Maine woods and a summer of rest, but “Town Tonight” should be in capable hands, with Walter O'Keefe as its master of ceremonies.
Mr. O'’Keefd is an old hand at microphoning, though usually on another's program. His guest appearances for Rudy Vallee have been numerous, and he had his own sho for awhile last winter in the “Saturday Night Party.” Like Mr. Allen, Mr. O'Keefe will write much of his own material, assisted by, Harry Conn, formerly of Mr. Benny’s#script. entourage.

NBC’s censorship division doubtless will miss the droll comedian, for he, probably more than any other broadcaster, always was having trouble with that department. ' He expected to, and explained he always put a few remarks of unquestionable bad taste into the script so when censors demanded deletion he could compromise by omitting these quips. Last week a reference to Major ‘Bowes was blue penciled, because NBC allows no quips aimed at CBS stars. . Portland has little to do with - script preparation, but she - did contribute one joke—the one about ‘a combination hock shop and delicatessen with three meat balls hanging over the door. Fred liked. the. idea and used it. Since then, you've probably heard it a dozen times, on other programs. Portland says she has the highest average of any “Town Hall” scripters—one joke suggested and one used. The others, including Allen, suggest dozens for each one that reaches the microphone.

Harry Von Zell will stay with Mr. O'Keefe to help keep “Town Hall” running, and Peter Van Steeden’s Orchestra and the quartet will be heard as usual. The Mighty Allen Art Players will vacation, one or two of them possibly in Hollywood
